Before John had to go upstairs to call Sophia, she had come downstairs. Since William was still at the
social gathering, and Matilda had returned home, the atmosphere during dinner was somewhat quiet.
Looking at the seats William and Matilda usually sat on, Old Mrs. Constance lamented, “I miss the time
when all of us could sit together and have a meal. Without them, it just feels incomplete.”
Sophia flashed a gentle smile at her. “You can tell Master William to bring Madam Flintstone back. By
then, we’ll be able to have dinner together again.”
Nibbling at his food, John went along by saying, “When dad comes home later, I’ll ask him what he
plans to do.”
Darting her gaze between Sophia and John, Old Mrs. Constance put on a smile without uttering a
word.
As soon as John finished eating, his phone on the table started ringing. Upon taking a look, he picked it
up and left the dining hall.
Sophia happened to catch a glimpse of the screen, and she knew that the person was John’s
subordinate. Pouting, she watched John disappear from the living room. Then, she tutted and said,
“He’s been busy for the entire day.”
Picking up a piece of tissue, Old Mrs. Constance wiped the grease off her mouth and replied, “Don’t
worry. I’m sure he’s really busy with work and not hiding anything from you.” A moment later, she
added, “Given his temperament, I don’t think any other woman will fall in love with him.”
Sophia arched her brow, thinking that Old Mrs. Constance didn’t really understand her grandson.
Although John was hot-tempered, he was rich and handsome. These two qualities could eclipse the
flaws in his temperament and make any woman fall for him.
After stepping out of the living room, John picked up the call. With a lowered voice, the subordinate
reported, “Sir, something happened.”
John grunted, not feeling surprised. “What’s wrong?”
The subordinate sighed. “I guess the woman had figured that we would handle the problem like this, so
after we captured her, she started throwing a tantrum. Just now, when we were not paying attention,
she crashed her head into the wall. Her head is now drenched in blood, but she wouldn’t let us help
treat her. The young daughter she has brought with her is now bawling. We don’t even know how to
handle this situation.”
Since these two people are related to Sophia, we aren’t sure how hard we can go on them, the
subordinate thought.
John laughed. “Well well, she’s quite a daredevil. Is her injury serious?”
The subordinate replied, “It isn’t serious, but she’s making a fuss and demanding to meet Miss
Gwendolyn. Since she’s Miss Gwendolyn’s mother, we’re afraid that if we treat her too harshly, Miss
Gwendolyn will blame us later.”
After a moment of consideration, John asked, “Where are you now? I’m going over.” I didn’t expect that
the woman would threaten to kill herself. It seems that she’s determined to get some money out of us,
John thought.
After the subordinate told him the address, John grunted and hung up the call. When he was reaching
for the car park, he suddenly thought of something and stopped in his tracks. After hesitating for a bit,
he turned around and returned to the living room.
At that moment, Sophia and Old Mrs. Constance were coming out of the dining hall since they were
done with dinner. Seeing him, Sophia said, “Oh, you’re done with the phone call.”
John inquired, “Do you want to follow me to a place?”
Startled, Sophia asked, “Where are you bringing me to? You look serious.”
With a slight frown, John replied, “We’re going to meet a person. I think you should show up.”
After staring at him for a while, she seemed to have figured who they were going to meet, so she
nodded and said, “Alright. I’ll go with you.”
When Sophia went upstairs to get changed, Old Mrs. Constance gazed at him. “What’s wrong? Is that
some serious matter?”
“It isn’t so serious,” John answered. “It’s just that one of Sophia’s relatives wants to get some benefits
from us. Since Sophia isn’t willing to give in, the person is throwing a tantrum.”
