Chapter 990


    Isabelle sighed. “The situation at my house isn’t looking good and I really don’t want to stay here any


    longer. I just want to understand your progress now so that I can leave as soon as possible if


    everything’s going on smoothly.”


    After considering things for a moment, John asked, “Will your grandfather and father allow you to


    leave?”


    This was indeed a good question as Isabelle was the only hope of the main branch of the Bailey Family


    now that Dexter was gone. Mrs. Bailey had left, and only her father would be left in the family if Isabelle


    were to leave as well. Thus, John knew that Old Mr. Bailey and Elder Mr. Bailey would definitely


    disagree if Isabelle wanted to leave.


    Isabelle fell into silence before answering, “I have my own ways.”


    John paused for a moment before he suggested, “You need to think about this carefully as it would be


    a huge problem if what your family is doing is exposed. If you don’t want to get involved in this, it would


    be better if you can leave as soon as possible.”


    Then, Isabelle sighed before telling him that she understood and hung up.


    After staring at John’s phone for a moment, Sophia questioned, “What happened? Is Isabelle leaving?”


    John grunted before he exined, “The Baileys are involved in too many aspects and I still can’t


    fathom everything, but from the information that I have gathered right now, they will be in serious


    trouble if they get exposed.”


    Everyone in the Bailey Family might get affected? It must be a very serious matter to affect the entire


    family like that. At that thought, Sophia nodded as shemented, “The Baileys are really audacious,


    huh?”Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Indeed, even John was amazed with what Elder Mr. Bailey could do sometimes. How could someone


    so old still be so greedy for wealth? Had he ever thought of how many people in the Bailey Family


    would get affected by what he had done? It might not have mattered to him, since he could close his


    eyes and leave all the responsibilities to the others just because he was old, but what about his family


    members?


    After John brought Sophia back to the main building, he apanied Sophia to watch some


    animations on the couch before they returned to their room. However, a mere few minutes after John


    entered the bedroom, Zack’s phone call came, so he had to go to the study room.


    Sophia sighed as she changed into her pajamas. It felt like John had returned to how he was like


    during their first marriage, being busy as always. Then, shey on the bed and started scrolling through


    the news on her phone. There wasn’t any interesting news recently besides those in the entertainment


    section.


    As Sophia sat on her bed and pondered for a moment, she recalled the talent show that Ian joined


    previously. It had been a really long time since shest watched it, so she couldn’t help but wonder


    about his progress now. Then, Sophia started looking it up before realizing that the show had already


    reached its final stage in the championship.


    It had been a long time since shest contacted Ian, and they hadn’t talked much thest time he came


    back. Still, it felt to Sophia like they had already talked everything out. However, it was impossible for


    them to return to how they were in the first ce even when the problem was already resolved.


    Sophia randomly tapped on the newest episode and started watching the show. Ian’s condition was


    getting better now and he had returned to how he wasst time, quiet and slightly distant. Then, Sophia


    scrolled through thements below to see that manyizens had good things to say about Ian.


    Ian was promoting himself as a gentle prince. Although this wasn’t the fastest road to gain more fans,


    he still had a solid fanbase. During the start of the show, Ian had been singing sweet love songs, but he


    had been venturing into different song genres during these few episodes. For example, he sang an


    explosive rock and roll song during thetest episode.


    This was Sophia’s first time seeing Ian going all out singing on the stage as he had always been gentle


    and restrained, so she couldn’t help but feel sad when she heard his heart-rending singing.
