Female Novel
Chapter 353
When Logan had said that, he shook his head. “Rumor has it that she lay into them and gave them hell,cursing the woman’s parents as well.” When the woman came back upon learning of the uproar athome, she happened to bump into Matilda who was still quite slender and agile at that time. Going upto her, Matilda then grabbed her hair and hit her violently. That woman probably knew that she was inthe wrong, so she didn’t fight back nor say a single word, merely taking the beating silently. Withoutwaiting for William to come over, Matilda then left.
She was elegant during both her entry and exit. Even when she was hitting the woman, she tried herbest to maintain her image and didn’t allow herself to become too disheveled. Judging from this matter,she’s actually a woman who’s quite swift and resolute. I don’t know what was discussed betweenWilliam and her when she went back, but William then cut off all ties with that woman.
After thinking for a while, Sophia said, “The woman deserved a beating, but she shouldn’t havedragged her parents into it.” This is precisely her problem. She just has to involve the person’s parents.This was also something for which she disdained her.
Logan stared at her. “Therefore, you’re truly admirable to have beaten her up.”
Sophia’s brows creased slightly. “Actually, I don’t care how she rides roughshod over others atConstance Residence. However, I can’t tolerate it when she comes to my territory and criticizes me,even going so far as to hit me. I’m not a mellow person, nor was I born to be bullied by others.” novelbin
Logan nodded in agreement with her remark. “Exactly! I’m of the same opinion. I’m born to enjoy life.Otherwise, why would I make a trip into the world? To suffer and put up with mistreatment? No way!”
Staring at him, Ian then turned to look at Sophia. This time, Sophia sensed him beside her and
reflexively turned to glance at him. However, they were so close that they almost kissed, scaring her somuch that she quickly leaned back. Ian straightened as well. “Sorry, I was a bit too absorbed in Logan’sstory just now.”
Sophia chuckled. “It’s okay.”
At this time, John was standing in the courtyard, staring at the three people inside through the livingroom window. From this angle, Sophia seemed to be leaning against Ian, the two of them appearingvery much intimate. I wonder if she turned and kissed him before they exchanged a smile earlier.Frowning, he closed his eyes for a moment, having nary a clue as to why he stood here and watchedfor so long. There’s nothing interesting to see here. Without going over, he spun on his heels and left,climbing back into his car and speeding off. I only drove here because I lost my mind. There’s nothinginteresting here, nothing at all.
On his way back, a call came in from Old Mrs. Constance, asking him where he was and why he didn’tcome home after work. John knew that she was asking this question out of concern for him. After all,he didn’t have to entertain clients much these days, and coupled with all his problems now, thereweren’t many places he could go. Thus, he said that he’d been wrapping up his work at the office andwas now on his way home. At this, she murmured an acquiescence. “We’ll wait for you to have dinner.”John later hung up and threw his cell phone to the side.
Going straight back to Constance Residence, he then parked at the parking lot but didn’t alightimmediately. He sat there, reclining against his seat while spacing out for a bit. The Baileys issued astatement in the evening, but it was very simple, merely proclaiming that Isabelle didn’t encroach onanyone’s love life and thanking the public for their concern. In all honesty, this clarification is nodifferent from making no clarification.
