Old Mrs. Constance seemed to be schooling him on behalf of Sophia as she added, “You can’t keep
doing this. Sophia is pregnant now. You can’t leave her alone at home like this. No matter how busy
you are at work, I do not believe that you need to work this late into the night.”
John nodded without explaining what he had been up to last night. To his grandmother, he only said, “I
won’t do that anymore. From now on, I will try to leave work earlier and come home to keep her
company.”
Old Mrs. Constance nodded in satisfaction and looked at Sophia. “This fellow has made a promise
here. If he breaks his promise, you can talk to me. I will deal with him for you.”
Sophia instantly knew that Old Mrs. Constance was acting this way on purpose to soothe her anxiety
from last night.
She nodded gratefully and said, “Okay, Grandma, I will come to you for help if he breaks his promise.
Just don’t favor him by then.”
Old Mrs. Constance gave her grandson a warning stare. “Don’t worry. I’ve got my walking stick ready. If
he neglects you, I will definitely beat him up.”
John smiled and shook his head at the cute scene without a comment.
The amicable atmosphere made it a lovely lunch for everyone.
Compared to last night, Sophia clearly had a better appetite.
After lunch, she suddenly recalled something and turned to ask John, “By the way, Dylan has a
girlfriend now. Do you know what she looks like?”
John frowned for a moment. Meeting Dylan’s girlfriend was out of the question when he did not even
have the time to meet with Dylan over the past two days.
Thus, he pursed his lips and replied, “I heard that Aunt Jennifer went to the company two days ago to
have lunch with Dylan’s girlfriend. I only knew about it through Dad and I didn't get to meet the girl.”
Beside them, Matilda interjected, “Don’t sweat about it. When you meet your Aunt Jennifer, she will tell
you all about it. You don’t even need to ask; she will blurt out everything.”
That sounded about right, Sophia thought. As she chuckled, she said, “Yeah, you’re right.”
After lunch, John stayed around for a bit longer.
The four of them chatted for some time before Sophia started to feel drowsy.
Then, John followed her back to their room and lay down beside her like he was about to coax a child
to sleep.
He even tapped on her shoulder rhythmically and gradually lulled her to sleep.
She was lying on her side and her belly protruded in an obvious way.
At the sight of it, he placed his hand on her belly and caressed it.
For now, they still could not feel any movements of the fetus. I wonder how this little fellow is doing in
there?
Leaning down, he gave her a kiss on her forehead before slowly making his way downstairs.
Now, Old Mrs. Constance was already on her way to the Flintstones, so only Matilda was lying on the
couch watching TV.
She appeared bored out of her mind.
When John was back downstairs, he informed her, “It’s about time for me to leave. I’ll be off now.”
She nodded. “Can you be home on time tonight?”
When John heard that, he hesitated for a while and cautiously answered, “I’ll try my best.”
She grunted. “Now that Sophia’s pregnant, you need to give her what she needs. A pregnant woman
tends to overthink. You spend too little time with her and that will make her sad.”
John let out a frustrated sigh. “Alright. I got it.”
After the brief chat with Matilda, he promptly left the Constance Residence.
When his car went into the highway, Zack was waiting for him there.
Then, John pulled over, and Zack came up to take his place on the driver’s seat.
When they were done switching positions, Zack started the car and continued driving John to his
destination.
During the journey, Zack started a conversation. “The police have recorded Husky and Roselia’s
statements. Also, someone went to check on the place Roselia was held yesterday. For now, we have
narrowed down our targets to a few men, but we could not get a hold on the exact situation yet.
Anyway, I believe that the police have started to make their move.”
He added, “I talked to Roselia just now. She told me that there’s some inventory hidden in the shadow
bank. Their people probably planned to have Old Mr. Bailey count the inventory during the operations
handover to him. However, after Husky and Roselia’s incident, I wonder if they’d quickly transfer the
stuff away from scrutiny.”
