Chapter 964
Feeling strung up after all the unsessful calls, Sophia was suddenly caught in a trance when
someone picked up the phone on the receiving end. Overwhelmed by her nervousness, her mouth
stiffened as she failed to speak the words that were forming at the tip of her tongue.
On the other side of the call, John asked, “What’s the matter, Sophia?”
As she tried hard to fight back her tears, she uttered, “What’s wrong with you, John?! Why didn’t you
pick up the damn call throughout the afternoon?”
John responded with an affirmative hum and chuckled. “Oh, my phone was on silent mode, so I didn’t
hear your call.”
Ohe on! If only I could slip my hand through our screens and give him a p in the face. Sophia
then slowly organized her thoughts. “Tell me honestly. Is there something wrong on your side? Logan
called up and told me that Husky is lying in the hospital right now. I heard he is in a critical condition
too.”
John answered, “Oh, so this is what it is about. Husky is injured, but he is fine. We don’t know what
really happened yet because he is still unconscious, but we believe he was exposed when he was
searching for Roselia.” Roselia is now my biggest headache. I’m not really worried about her safety
since she is quick-witted, but the only way I can entirely put my mind to ease is to find her.
Meanwhile, Sophia kept quiet for a short while and brought up her concern. “Are you in danger, John?
Please! You really need to watch out!”

Johnughed it off and reassured Sophia. “Come on, I’m fine! Furthermore, my men are here with me,
so I doubt anyone can eveny a finger on me for the time being.”
While her husband’s reassuring words seemed to ease her mind, she contemted briefly and asked,
“Can you be back early tonight?”
Faced with her question, John let out a sigh in response without saying anything. However, Sophia
understood what that meant. Then, the man continued to say, “I’m a little busy today, and I’m afraid I’ll
probably be backte tonight. So, don’t wait on me. Go ahead and sleep early.”
Knowing that John was indeed busy with his work, Sophia helplessly said, “Alright, I’ll leave you to it,
but please stay safe! Okay?”
With a smile on his face, he answered, “I heard you loud and clear. Don’t worry about me. Take care.”
After the call ended, Sophia patted her chest and heaved a sigh of relief. Darn it! That nearly gave me
a heart attack!
Sophia set her eyes outside the window and decided to take a walk around the garden. She then sat
on the bench, where she could clearly have a good view of the car park. Not long after that, the Second
Constance Family returned in their car. Oh, it’s time to leave work. After a short while, she saw the
Third Constance Family returning as well.
In that instant, Sophia sighed in a helpless manner. William is now with Matilda, and John isn’ting
back anytime soon. So, that means Old Mrs. Constance and I are alone in the house. I guess I finally
have a taste of what Matilda used to go through back then. Sophia continued to sit in the garden until
the maid came to inform her that the meal was ready.
Upon seeing Sophia return alone, Old Mrs. Constance asked in surprise, “Is John still not back yet?”
Sophia nodded her head and said, “Oh, don’t wait on him. He says he’ll be staying back for work
tonight.”
Old Mrs. Constance let out a sigh and stated, “s! After a few days of short-lived liveliness, we’re
back to square one once more.”
Nevertheless, Sophia responded with silence, heading to the dining table before settling down for the
meal. Soon, the twodies filled the dull atmosphere with awkward silence as they quietly ate their
meals. After that, Old Mrs. Constance sat on the couch, while Sophia headed upstairs to her bedroom.
Then, shey in her bed and scrolled on her social media news feeds but was too distracted to go
through them.
In the end, Sophia decided to give Logan a call, hearing his nervous voice the moment he picked up
the call. It looks like Logan is in the middle of something.
