Chapter 768
Having undergone all that suffering, he still needs to tell us everything. That’s just sad.
Sophia stood at the entrance of the warehouse and looked inside. The man had been pushed off his
chair and was now lying huddled on the ground, his body covered in blood. A cigarette dangled from
the side of John’s mouth as he stepped down hard on the man’s thigh wound. “And then?”
Seeing that the man refused to speak further, John applied more strength to his foot. The man
screamed and then groaned. “Okay, okay. I’ll tell you!”
Sophia stood at the door listening to him. The man said hesitantly that the person who instructed him to
do this job would often ask him to do this kind of thing, but the previous jobs he had done were more
with a hard object. He originally thought that it was so simple that there was no need for him to spend
much effort on it, but he didn’t expect things to end up this way.
When John asked who hired him, the man yelled, “Old Leopard! It’s Old Leopard. All I know is this
nickname. His real name is no longer in use. Everybody now calls him that.”
Johnughed. “It’s him again? I’ve already had him tailed, yet he is still able to act up. It seems that I
need to discard some of my subordinates too.”
Sophia felt bored. Now, she no longer needed to do anything, so there was no room for her to perform
any further. Thus, she found a ce to sit down by the door and took out her phone to call Matilda. She
mainly wanted to ask thetter if she felt any difort, and to tell her to go to the hospital quickly if
something felt wrong. After all, Matilda was no spring chicken anymore, so there might be some bad
effects.
From the other end of the phone, Matilda said that she was fine, and she didn’t need to go to the
hospital. Sophia could vaguely hear William’s voice asking Matilda if the water was too hot and if she
wanted to drink it now. Laughing, Sophia thought to herself that sometimes, things might look bad on
the surface, but it would turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Some of the best surprises were hidden
within the worst situations.
Sophia waited at the door for a while. Shortly after, John and Fabian came out, saying that they had
asked everything that they needed to ask. Sophia nodded. “Let’s go then. Why don’t we go and eat
something first? I was upset just now and didn’t eat much. Now I’m hungry.”
Fabianughed out loud. “You still have an appetite after all that? Wow, I really admire you.” Most
women would be nauseous after witnessing the gory scene just now, but Sophia seemed to have a
better appetite after watching it.
Not taking him seriously, Sophia just said, “That’s not my blood anyway, so who cares? Come, let’s go
and grab a bite.”
Hence, John and Fabian brought her to a restaurant to have some food. The two men hadn’t eaten
much earlier as well, so now, they apanied Sophia to eat. Halfway through the meal, John made a
call and asked a doctor to go over to tend to the man’s wounds. Sophia had struck so violently that
John found that the wounds were too serious for simple dressing to work. He was certain that they had
to be stitched up by a doctor.
Meanwhile, Sophia didn’t care about what John was saying on the phone. She simply ate her fill

without saying a word. Then, she took the time to ask Fabian how he was doing.
Fabian replied thoughtfully, “Well, I’m fine. Not much has happened. I just spend my days rxing and
time passes quickly.”
Sophia sighed. “This morning, Old Mrs. ckwell and your mother came for lunch.”
Realization dawned on Fabian upon hearing her words. “They must have said something, or else you
won’t be looking at me like this.”
Sophia did not beat around the bush either. “They did, but they were pretty vague about it, so I don’t
know much. But after listening to them talk, I think that they were sorry and regretted their actions.
They just don’t know how to reconcile with you.”
