Chapter 956


    This was the first time Isabelle would describe herself as pitiful. Unable to sleep anymore, she left her


    room in an attempt to go downstairs to get a bottle of wine.


    Reaching the staircase, she suddenly stopped in her tracks because someone was entering the house


    at that instance. Startled for a moment, she then reflexively moved to the side to hide.


    After that person stepped into the living room, he waited for a bit before turning on the light. Instead of


    going upstairs, the person took a seat on the couch.


    Isabelle stuck out her head and realized that the person was her father. He was d in tracksuits, so


    he appeared younger than his usual self. However, his gray hair was an indication of his old age.


    Seated on the couch, Old Mr. Bailey ced his palms on his knees and took a rest. A whileter, he


    fished out his phone from his pocket and started texting a message.


    With a frown, Isabelle couldn’t understand why her father had gone out in the middle of the night.


    After he was done with sending the message, he rose from the couch.


    Seeing this, Isabelle decided to sneak back into her room. Leaving a gap at the door, she stayed there


    to listen to what was going on outside.


    Her father entered Philippa’s room, and after a few minutes, he came out of the room. Standing in the


    corridor, he let out a long sigh.


    The sigh was so loud that Isabelle could hear it in her own room. She knew that her father was upset.


    Basically, everyone in this house was distressed.


    However, since the tragedy had happened, there was no use crying over spilled milk. Hence, they had


    to learn to ept this fact. Rather than living in misery, they should look forward to the future.


    A whileter, her father returned to his room and closed the door.


    Opening the door, Isabelle gazed out at the corridor. Naturally, she was disheartened as well, but she


    couldn’t bring herself to pass the evidence of her family members’ wrongdoing to John.


    Rather than saving herself, she had to make sure that her family wouldn’t suffer from a downfall


    because if that happened, her mother would certainly go mad.


    The next morning, Sophia was still asleep when her phone started ringing suddenly. It turned out to be


    John, who was already at work.


    After he was done with a meeting, he decided to call Sophia and told her that her fellow vigers


    wanted to meet her because they had to thank her personally.


    At the mention of this, Sophia recalled that she had promised to meet them one day. However, due to


    her pregnancy, she could be forgetful sometimes.

    The sun was already up in the sky. Hearing what John said, she sat up on the bed and grunted in


    agreement.


    Following that, John continued, “I’ll go home to have lunch with you. After that, we’ll meet those


    vigers. Please get yourself ready.”


    With her eyes half-closed, Sophia grunted. “Okay.”


    When the call ended, she spaced out on the bed for a while and theny back down.


    Recently, she would always get a good night’s sleep. Perhaps she had reached a point in her


    pregnancy when she could befortable in her current state.


    After sleeping on the bed for a while longer, she was awakened by the housekeeper, who hade in


    to serve food to her.


    Getting out of bed, she entered the bathroom to wash up and got changed. Then, she put on some


    make-up to make herself look more energetic and took a seat to start enjoying her food. With her


    phone ced on the table, she was scrolling through some entertainment news.


    Just then, her phone started ringing again as Isabelle was calling her.
