Female Novel
Chapter 347
Isabelle looked extremely weary and even a touch dispirited. The Baileys were waiting in the meetingroom, so William and John hurried over. When Isabelle spotted John, she sprang to her feet at once. Atthe side, Old Mr. Bailey chided, “Belle.” Seemingly snapping back to her senses, she slowly sat backdown with mild embarrassment. The moment John came in, he immediately found a seat and sat downwithout even sparing her a single glance.
On the other hand, the police questioned Sophia for a bit before the entire matter was dropped. Itwasn’t her who made the police report, so she merely said she wasn’t quite sure what had happened,and the two police officers didn’t ask further. When they’d left, she sat on the sofa for a long time beforeshe remembered something. I’d better revoke John’s access to this place. Putting aside what Matildathinks, I myself don’t want to have anything to do with the Constance Family anymore in the future.
After cleaning the mess in the living room from the altercation earlier, she then went upstairs andsprawled on the bed. Rolling about, she then took out her cell phone and looked at the news reports onthe Internet. Truthfully speaking, she did contemplate speaking up on behalf of John. The sooner thismatter blows over, the sooner my life can get back on track. If this matter hangs in the balance, it’llaffect me as well.
But Matilda is truly impudent! How dare she come and order me around? Did she think the title of themost senior Mrs. Constance is a free pass that is effective everywhere? Pah! After this confrontation,I’m more inclined to bad-mouth John on the Internet. Sophia inhaled deeply. However, it was quite adelight to hit her earlier. I’ve finally vented all the resentment bottled within me!
Picking at random, she glanced through two news reports. The contents were mainly still the same, butthis time, they brought up John and Isabelle’s engagement in the past. She actually had no idea whatexactly happened between the two of them back then. The only thing she knew was that the two
families were initially planning to join in marriage, and it was her appearance that shattered thebalance.
From the article, she read that it was actually Matilda who mediated the union between the Constanceand Bailey Family. It was said that Matilda liked Isabelle very much after a single meeting, so shebrought the matter up when she got home. At that time, it was about time for John to get married, andhe was doing rather well in Constance Group, having some minor achievements career-wise. Thus, it’dbe perfect if he had a happy family then. The Constance Family considered the matter and felt that theBailey Family was a good choice.
The Bailey Family, on the other hand, naturally admired John, so they agreed when the ConstanceFamily proposed the idea. This marriage contract was smooth sailing in the beginning. Besides, thearticle mentioned that John and Isabelle had also met up, upon which John was very much satisfiedwith her, but something happened later, and he married someone else who was inferior to her in everyaspect.
When Sophia read the first half of the article, she didn’t find any problem with it, but in the secondhalf… Inferior in every aspect? Pah! novelbin

Sophia put down her cell phone. It truly isn’t worth it to have made myself irate again from just readinga news report. Hugging her blanket, she rolled around twice before closing her eyes. There’s nothingelse to be done besides sleep.
Meanwhile, the employees at Constance Group were all confounded. After all, Sophia had visited in the
past and appeared very loving with John, so it came as an utter surprise that they’d then divorced inshort order.
Early this morning, that female employee known as Miss Cox jumped out again, claiming thateverything she said back then was true—the cracks in John and Sophia’s relationship stemmed fromhis affair with her. In the past, few people believed the woman’s words, but now that John was in thelimelight and someone was playing this up, this woman’s claim was taken as proof of his habitualcheating by many.
