Female Novel
Chapter 678
John hung up, and Sophia’s phone rang. At the same time, Matilda was sitting beside her, and shestared down to look at the phone on the table to see who the caller was. “Fabian?” She was surprised.“You’re still keeping in touch with him?” Then, she smacked herself on the head. “Oh yeah! TheBlackwells’ matriarch likes you, doesn’t she?” Matilda frowned at Sophia. “If memory serves me right,the Third Blackwell Family has adopted you, so Fabian’s your brother, isn’t he?”
Sophia sipped some water and picked her phone up. “You can say that.”
Matilda clicked her tongue and looked at Sophia judgmentally. “Well, aren’t you lucky? The Blackwellshave no taste, I see.”
Sophia sneered. “Well, I think their taste is exquisite. Why don’t you learn from them? It might help you,you know.” She smacked her lips. “Everyone except you likes me. I think that says more about youthan them.” After saying that, she turned to Robin. “Isn’t that right?”
Robin pretended not to hear them.
Matilda pouted. “I bet you’re gloating because that young man likes you.”
Sophia nodded. “Yeah. I have a lot of suitors, and you know it. Your son is only one of them, and I cantotally date someone else.”
John, who was at the side, paused. “Don’t drag me into your fight.”
Matilda rolled her eyes at him. “You should have won her over a long time ago, brat. I wouldn’t have tobicker with her if you managed it.”
John gave Lincoln a look. “See how scary women can be?”
Lincoln smiled. “I think they share a good relationship. At least your life won’t be boring.”
Really? John looked back at them. Well, at least it’s better than what they used to be.
Sophia read Fabian’s text. ‘What’s up? How’s it looking?’
Sophia then told him that John knew about her pregnancy now, and she sent him her location, asking ifhe’d like to have lunch together.
‘Sure,’ he replied instantly. ‘I’m just around the corner, so I’ll be right there.’
Well, this is going to be merry. If Ian could come along as well, then everyone close to her would behere. The thought of Ian upset Sophia a little though. It’s a shame.
Fabian and Logan came at the same time, and they bumped into one another in the lobby, so theycame into the room at the same time. They were going to greet Sophia, but the sight of Matilda stunnedthem. novelbin
They never met Matilda in the flesh, but her infamy preceded her. She wasn’t bad per se, but everyonewho talked to her knew she had an… interesting personality.
Kate and Belinda would often talk about Matilda whenever they chatted, so Fabian had more or lessheard of Matilda’s stories from Kate.
Never once did they expect to see Matilda chatting so happily with Sophia, so they looked at eachother. Are we dreaming?
Lunch was already underway, but they didn’t order much so that Fabian and Logan could order whatthey wanted to eat as well. Sophia rang for the waitstaff, and Fabian picked up the menu.
“What’s up with John? He looks happy,” Logan asked.
