Female Novel
Chapter 535
Sophia pursed her lips. “Are you sure?”
I didn't feel secure in the slightest. John hadn’t given me anything during the marriage that lasted lessthan one year.
Robin waited for Logan to leave before coming over. “Sophia, why do I feel like you’re repulsedwhenever someone brings up Mr. Constance?”
Sophia didn't turn her head but continued looking outside. “Do you think John is good?”
Taken aback, Robin laughed sheepishly. “I don't have much contact with him, so I can't say whether heis good or not. But I think that he should be a very reliable person.”
Sophia sighed. “That’s because you aren’t married to him, so you’ve only seen his other side.”
When you’ve really married him and considered him your husband, you’ll feel differently.
The shop was less busy for the rest of the day. In the evening, when the shop closed, Sophia allowedRobin to leave first as she sat inside the shop.
To her, there was no difference between being here and being home. Both places belonged to her afterall.
Sophia sat by the window, and her mind somewhat empty as she looked off into the distance. She feltfulfilled after such a busy day, but she had only sat for a moment when someone came into the shop.
Sophia opened her mouth, wanting to say that the shop was closed for the day, but when she saw theperson who came in, she swallowed her words back.
It was none other than Isabelle.
Sophia felt that she wasn’t here to have a bite.
After all, the Bailey Corporation was quite far from here. Right now should be the time when employeesget off work, so logically, Isabelle should still be at the company. It was a little unreasonable for her tocome all the way here just to eat something in Sophia’s shop.
Sophia simply sat there and didn't move. After entering, Isabelle stood at the door and first looked atthe layout of the shop, and then turned her head to look at Sophia.
Smiling, Isabelle asked, “Are you closed?”
Sophia nodded. “Yeah, the sign has been put up.”
Naturally, Isabelle saw the sign as well. Still, she smiled and came to sit down across from Sophia. “Isee that you’re living quite the life.”
Sophia leaned back in her chair, turned her head, and looked outside. “My life has always been prettygood.”
“I suppose so.” Isabelle nodded. “During your divorce, John gave you so much money. Naturally, you’llhave a good life.”
Chuckling, Sophia answered, “Apart from during the divorce, John also gave me a lot of money evenafter the divorce.”
Isabelle’s lips quirked up as she always did and commented, “I heard that John was the one who gotpeople to renovate this shop.”
Sophia tutted. “Don't always say that you’ve heard something. Just say that you found out about it. Oneshould always be more honest.”
Bursting into laughter, Isabelle said, “Miss Gwendolyn, you’re always so straightforward. I can’t even bea little more discreet.”
Sophia shrugged. “I do have this bad habit. Sorry, I can't fix it.” novelbin
Sighing, Isabelle said, “Then I'll tell you the truth. I’ve actually wanted to come over and have a lookmyself for a long time now, but I have been very busy recently. Now that I finally have time today, Iwanted to see what Miss Gwendolyn can do. Looking at this place, I think it’s pretty good. In fact, it’sbetter than I expected.”
Sophia raised her eyebrows. “Oh? Please elaborate on what you had expected.”
Isabelle spoke without holding back, “Well, Miss Gwendolyn, I heard that you didn’t receive mucheducation, so I thought that you wouldn’t understand much about business. But when I think about it, Iguess that one doesn’t need much professional knowledge to open a shop and sell things. As long asyou know how to serve people, you’re good to go. So, it’s normal that you’re doing well here.”
Laughing, Sophia slowly tapped on the table with a hand. “I'll be honest with you. I'm not very good at
doing business, but my shop is doing very well. Do you know why? It’s not because I have a high tableturnover rate. It’s because I have two major customers.”
