Chapter 864
Soon, they arrived back at the Constance Residence as Sophia directly woke John up. “Wake up.We’re home.” Having fallen asleep, John slowly opened his eyes when Sophia nudged him. Then, herevealed his red eyes, trying to make sense of everything going on the moment he woke up.
After that, Sophia proceeded to get out of the car and headed toward the house, leaving John behind inan unconcerned manner. When she passed by the car park, she peeked in that direction and realizedthat William’s car was nowhere to be seen. With a mischievous smirk, she thought, It looks likesomeone is having a second round tonight.
Meanwhile, Zack directly drove off since John could walk by himself. Then, Sophia and John quietlytiptoed and made their way to their bedroom upstairs because they didn’t want to wake Old Mrs.Constance. While Sophia grabbed her pajamas and was about to brush her teeth, John’s phone rang.However, he was too drunk to pick it up as he was lying in bed at the moment.
After a brief hesitation, Sophia turned around and reached for John’s cell phone in his pocket. She thensniggered and answered the call, only to hear Isabelle’s voice. “John, I have something I’d like to tellyou.”
Sophia asked straightaway, “Yeah, fire away.”
Isabelle was stunned to hear an unfamiliar voice before Sophia laughed it off and said, “Well, I supposeit’s not surprising for you to find me by his side at this hour, is it?” What’s so important for Isabelle tocall me at this ungodly hour? novelbin
After a brief moment of silence, Isabelle apologized and hung up the call, leaving Sophia baffled. In theend, she decided not to wake John up for that, although she couldn’t stop wondering whether Isabelle
really had something important to talk to him about.
Isabelle then went on to brush her teeth as well as wiping John’s face and hands before she hit the haytoo. Since John was an early riser, he habitually woke up on time as he usually would. At the sametime, he unknowingly awoke Sophia, but the lady only squinted and said, “Isabelle gave you a call lastnight.”
John paused for a while and mumbled, “Urgh, not again. What does this annoying woman want fromme?” Even though her eyes were shut, Sophia curled her lips and smiled gleefully, amused by John’sresponse. That’s what makes me love this man so much!
John rubbed her head with his palm. “Close your eyes and sleep, baby. I need to go to work now.”
Sophia responded with an affirmative hum and asked in a nosy manner, “Hey, take a look and seewhether your dad is back, would you?”
Indeed, it didn’t occur to John that he should check on his father. As he walked into the bathroom, hesaid, “Isn’t it a good sign if you don’t see him around? Furthermore, I bet he probably spent the night atMom’s place, from the looks of things last night.”
Soon, Sophia fell asleep and realized it was almost afternoon the next time she woke up. At thatmoment, she felt hungry and weak, so she quickly went about her morning ablutions and made her waydownstairs.
At this time, Old Mrs. Constance was sitting in front of the TV while sipping some tea. As soon as shesaw Sophia coming down, she looked up at the former and berated her. “You people are getting out ofcontrol. Earlier on, I still had William to keep me company, but now, everyone just leaves me alone at
home.”
Sophia laughed in amusement as she went on to joke with Old Mrs. Constance. “Maybe you should tagalong with us next time.”
Old Mrs. Constance rolled her eyes at Sophia and said, “No thanks, you can count me out. I doubt Ican keep up with young people like you guys.”
As Sophia entered the dining area, Old Mrs. Constance followed right behind her and confusedlyasked, “William didn’t come back home last night, did he?”
