Chapter 292
A wooden table and four small rattan chairs were put in the open space of the garden.
John and Dn sat facing each other.
There was no conversation between John and Sophia.
Ignoring him, Sophia went straight toward the empty chair and sat down.
cing her phone on the table, she said, “I was monitoring the renovation work at the shop just now.
Sorry for beingte.”
Dn smiled. “You’re quite busy today, aren’t you?”
“Nah, not really.” Sophiaughed. “I usually don’t do much.”
As she had just finished speaking, her phone lit up.
John nced at it through the corner of his eyes and saw a WhatsApp message popping up on it.
Sophia noticed it too. It was a message from Logan.
Today was a holiday for Ian, so Logan would definitely invite people over to his ce.
He probably wanted Sophia to join a game of poker.
After unlocking the phone, Sophia saw a short video sent by Logan.
After ncing at Isabelle who was sitting opposite her, she clicked into the video.
In the video, Logan and Ian were standing in front of the camera. Smilingly, Logan said, “Sophia
Gwendolyn,e on! The two of us are already here. We need you right now.”
He continued to tease, “Ian has been nagging about you for the whole day. Yet, you didn’t sense a
thing and still aren’t here even though it’s alreadyte.”
Staring at Sophia’s phone, Isabelle sensed the light smile on her face remained unchanged.
After the rather noisy video ended, Sophia looked a little helpless as she sent a voice message to
them, telling them that she had something else to do today and couldn’t go over.
Then, Isabelle piped up, “Miss Gwendolyn and the Second Young Master Morgan have such a good
rtionship.”
Upon hearing that, Sophia snorted and looked up at Isabelle. “Did you cheat during your reading
one talking in the video. How is Ian even rted to this?”
Instead of getting angry at her sneering remark, Isabelle simply replied, “Yeah, I guess you have a
good rtionship with Young Master Jefferson too.”
Leaning back on her chair, Sophia turned to look at Dn. “So, what are you doing recently, Uncle
Dn? Have you been busy?”
By tantly ignoring Isabelle, Sophia made it clear that she refused to give her an out.
Isabelle fluffed her hair and looked elsewhere.
Dn replied, “No, I’m not really busy. They are all over at the main building. It is a rare asion for
everyone to get together here on a day off like this. They’re all chatting over there.”
Sophia replied, “Oh, so it’s a family gathering. I thought that we’ve invited outsiders as well.”
Isabelle’s gaze shifted slightly. Naturally, she understood that Sophia was referring to her.
Actually, she herself too felt rather ufortable being here. After all, everyone here was rted to
the Constance Family. She alone was a bit different.
It wasn’t obvious whether Dn missed out on Sophia’s hidden meaning or he was just ying along
when he said seriously, “Yeah, my mother said that we’ll just be holding a family gathering today
without inviting any outsiders.”
As Sophia pursed her mouth, a hint of a smile showed through her eyes and at the corners of her
mouth.
She looked at Dn and felt that he was indeed smart.
Moreover, his acting skills were good and praiseworthy.
Suddenly, her phone vibrated on the table again.
This time, without waiting for Sophia’s reaction, John sat up straight and picked up the phone.
After typing the password, he clicked on the new message sent by Logan.
This time, it was just a voice message. Logan said in a pitiful tone about how sad he was and that he

had waited a long time for Ian and Sophia to be free, yet Sophia had ditched them.
At that, John spoke into Sophia’s phone directly, “Logan, we’re really busy today and I don’t know when
the event will end. But if it ends early, you cane out and have a drink with me.”
