Why am I just feeling perturbed for no reason? Sophia clutched her hair. Actually, I am feeling
famished. I was already a bit hungry after rolling in the hay with him last night, but my drowsiness was
more prevalent then. After washing up for a bit, she then hurried downstairs and cooked some noodles.
When she sat down to eat, she scrolled her cell phone, only to see a news report in the finance section
about the official collaboration between the Constance and Bailey Family. It was said that the two
companies signed the contract today, and Elder Mr. Bailey even brought Old Mr. Bailey as well as
some higher management personnel to Constance Company to effectuate the signing of the contract.
Few people read the finance section, so the comments underneath were sparse. Surprisingly, however,
a few comments were all about John and Isabelle. Those comments brought up the fact that John and
Isabelle were engaged in the past, but Sophia inexplicably cut in midway. Sophia scanned the
comments to find that they were all basically saying that perhaps Isabelle and John were a better
match since the two of them were equals in terms of status, education, and breeding, thus a match
made in heaven. Also, they mentioned the possibility of a reconciliation between John and Isabelle
since the Constance and Bailey Family chose to collaborate despite the delicate relationship between
the two.
Sophia looked at the comments while slurping her noodles, snorting incessantly. Hah, I’ll never believe
that these comments have nothing to do with Isabelle Bailey! They can’t possibly be organic without
having been paid for considering their congruency and consistency. After reading all the comments,
she then closed the page. Fortunately, not many people read such news, so these comments can’t gain
traction. They’ll just give Isabelle Bailey a moment’s gratification.
She then lingered in the living room for a while after finishing her noodles, but she just felt irritated
although she herself wasn’t quite certain whether she was irked with John or Isabelle. After turning it
over in her mind, she went upstairs and changed. As the marks on her neck were truly too obvious, she
put on a dress with lace at the collar to somewhat conceal them a bit.
When she’d gotten ready, she hailed a taxi and went straight to Constance Company. It was almost
lunchtime now. The receptionist recognized her, thus greeted her with a smile and allowed her to go up
without stopping her. Hence, Sophia went up. After all, the news report she’d read earlier had just been
published a short while ago. Humming as she stepped out of the elevator, she headed toward John’s
office.
At this time, John was in his office, wrapped up in work. Sophia pushed open the door and walked in.
Still a tad discomfited, she gave a light cough. “Are you busy?”

John was momentarily startled. “Why are you here?”
“I went over to the dessert shop, so I dropped by to visit you,” Sophia replied, simply cooking up an
excuse.
John placed the document in his hand aside. “I’m a bit busy, so take a seat first.”
As soon as his words fell, his office door swung open, admitting Elder Mr. Bailey, Old Mr. Bailey, and
Isabelle, with William bringing up the rear. Probably having not expected Sophia to be here, Elder Mr.
Bailey who took the lead was stunned. Old Mr. Bailey, Isabelle, and even William who followed after
him all had similar expressions on their faces, one after another.
Inwardly gleeful, Sophia raised her hand and greeted, “Hello, it’s great to see all of you.” I just knew
that these people must be still here, and sure enough, I’m right.
Isabelle recovered quickly, her stunned state lasting for a mere second before she smiled and looked at
Sophia before shifting her gaze to John. “The contract has been signed, and it’s almost noon now, so
we came over to ask you whether you’d like to join us for lunch.”
John stood up and glanced at William.
