Female Novel
Chapter 774
Sophia directly took over the phone and said, “Give it to me. I’ll reply to her for you.”
Isabelle wasn’t stupid. If Matilda said she wasn’t angry at all, Isabelle definitely wouldn’t believe it.Therefore, Sophia replied that ‘Matilda’ was a little disappointed in her.
Isabelle didn’t call but simply continued texting, saying that what she did wasn’t intentional, but shelater realized that her behavior was indeed inappropriate. So, she wanted to ask Matilda, Sophia, andJohn out for a meal in order to personally explain the matter to them.
Sophia looked at Matilda, grinning. “She’s inviting us three for a meal. Why do I have a feeling thatshe’s trying to take us all down in one clean sweep?”
Although it was very untimely, Matilda still smiled. “Then, do you think we should agree to it?”
Sophia thought for a while before replying to Isabelle that they were quite busy now and suggestedthey plan for another time. Therefore, Isabelle didn’t continue to pester either. She only said that shewould invite them again in a couple of days. It was obvious that she was unwilling to give up.
Since Isabelle acted like that, Sophia felt that she had some ulterior motive. Isabelle is such asupercilious woman. How can I believe that she simply wants to apologize?
Sophia handed the phone back to Matilda. “She’ll look for you again in a couple of days. By that time,you should agree to the meal. I'd like to see what tricks that b*tch has up her sleeve this time.”
After being informed, Matilda tutted. “In the future, you should watch your language when you speak in
front of the child. Don’t be so vulgar, as the child will imitate you. Understand?” novelbin
Grinning, Sophia answered, “Yes, ma’am.”
John came back with William at noon. When they entered the door without seeing Sophia and Matildaaround, they asked at the same time, “Where is she?”
Old Mrs. Constance was sitting on the sofa, after which she looked up when she heard their question.“Who are you asking about? Sophia or Matilda?”
John and William looked at each other. John laughed, while William looked a little awkward. Johnspoke first. “I was asking about Sophia. As for my dad, maybe not.”
William lightly coughed twice. “I guess I was asking about the two of them collectively.”
Old Mrs. Constance withdrew her gaze and replied, “They’re upstairs. They said they were a littlesleepy, so I let the two of them rest.”
Learning about where they were, John nodded. “I’ll go up and take a look.”
Old Mrs. Constance did not speak. After standing there for a moment, William hesitated a little beforegoing upstairs as well.
Sophia and Matilda were indeed in their respective rooms. John saw Sophia as soon as he pushed thedoor. She was hugging the quilt and was sound asleep, looking the same as before. Softening hismovements, John went to stand beside the bed.
Sophia was lying on her side. Despite her belly not looking obvious, John still felt that it was looking alot bigger. Sitting down slowly, he reached out and touched it, which woke Sophia up. Seeing him, sheimmediately frowned. “Why are you so annoying? Must you wake me up the moment you come back?”
Laughing, John said, “It’s lunchtime soon. Get up and wash your face. We'll go downstairs when you’reready.”
Having been disturbed by him, Sophia couldn’t sleep anymore. She continued lying on the bed as shestared at the window. “Isabelle said that she would like to invite us to have a meal and apologize forwhat happened before.”
Hearing Isabelle’s name, John was immediately irritated. “What does she want to apologize for? Thebest thing she can do now is not to appear before any of us.”
“But I’m quite interested in what she has to say.” Sophia smiled.
John turned and leaned against the headboard. He stroked Sophia’s hair, saying, “Let’s not talk aboutthat useless stuff. Let me ask you this, now that you’ve moved in here, do you want to reconsider ourremarriage?”
Sophia burst out laughing. “If that is so, then I’ll move out later. After all, I haven’t brought anything withme, so it’s easy for me to go back.”
John hurriedly added, “It was just a casual question. Why are you so serious about it?”
