Female Novel
Chapter 892
Isabelle patted her mother carefully as if she was consoling a child while the latter looked like she wasin a daze as her sobs slowly died down.
However, Elder Mr. Bailey’s facial expression remained indifferent as he turned around and left aftergiving them a few glances.
After Elder Mr. Bailey’s figure disappeared from the doorway, Sophia slowly turned around beforesneaking a glance.
She helped her mother to her bed and tucked her in before coaxing her gently so that she could restwell.
Then, Sophia left her mother’s room before she tiptoed toward her father’s room.
Old Mr. Bailey’s room had always been left wide open as they were afraid that he might be too harshon himself and do something stupid.
This time, however, Sophia noticed that the door to Old Mr. Bailey’s room was closed slightly as ElderMr. Bailey and Old Mr. Bailey sat inside.
It seemed like her grandfather had been trying to lecture her father for a while now as he continuedgiving advice, but her father refused to say anything.
Finally, Elder Mr. Bailey sighed and lamented, “If Sophia is still together with John, things wouldn’t haveturned out this way.”
At that, Old Mr. Bailey looked like he finally came back to his senses.
Elder Mr. Bailey’s voice sounded cold as he continued saying, “If John had married Belle, this obviouslywouldn’t have happened to our family.”
Old Mr. Bailey probably never expected Elder Mr. Bailey to mention this as he pondered for a momentbefore agreeing.
However, Old Mr. Bailey’s voice was hoarse and sounded as if he was really stricken.
Elder Mr. Bailey added on again, “Back when Belle was engaged with John, I could already see thatyou stopped being so strict toward Dexter. However, you have put a lot of pressure on Dexter after thatbecause John married another woman. At that time, you couldn’t tell if Belle’s future husband wouldhelp Dexter or not, so I believe that was why you became strict on him.”
Isabelle, who was standing by the door, frowned. The way Elder Mr. Bailey worded himself made itsound like everything that happened was John’s fault.
Or, one could say that it was John’s fault for not marrying her.
It’s easy for a person’s mind to start getting confused after a shock, so Isabelle felt like hergrandfather’s thought was starting to get extreme.
Still, Old Mr. Bailey didn’t say anything.
Elder Mr. Bailey said again, “Dexter shouldn’t have gone down like this. Now that our family lost
another inheritor, it would surely affect the company.”
Old Mr. Bailey sighed with a hint of a sob.
Then, Elder Mr. Bailey mumbled to himself, “If only John had stood firm in his stance. Then, he wouldn’thave gotten seduced by another woman and would have been a part of our family.”
It seemed like Old Mr. Bailey was starting to conform to Elder Mr. Bailey’s thoughts, taking his father’sstance.
To be honest, Elder Mr. Bailey had been thinking about the plans for the future that he had plottedtogether with Old Mr. Bailey yesterday.
The plan was that after John married Isabelle, he would help Dexter out so that Dexter’s careerperspective would get better, and through that, the Bailey Family’s company would be able to progressfurther.
This was something that they had decided on earlier, and it was plotted when Isabelle got engaged toJohn.
However, who would have expected Sophia to show up in the middle of all this?
Isabelle couldn’t stand it anymore. Those two in the room were obviously confused after gettingstricken, as nothing that they were talking about made sense. Without wanting to listen further, Isabelleturned around and returned to her room.
On the other hand, Sophia and Logan were sending Ian off to his car.
Although the reason why he was leaving this time was similar to why he left back then, it felt differentthis time. novelbin
After staring at Sophia for a while, Ian suddenly smiled. “I wonder if you would have already become amother the next time we see each other again.”
Right then, Sophia frowned slightly. However, she broke into a grin after that. “Nah. It shouldn’t take solong.”
