Female Novel
Chapter 958
Old Mrs. Constance let out a sigh and helplessly shook her head. “But I have a feeling that Dylan isonly doing this because they made him. I don’t want him to regret it later on in life just because of theirimpatience.”
Nevertheless, Sophia felt the other way and disagreed with Old Mrs. Constance, thinking that Dylanwouldn’t take something like this so lightly. After all, they were talking about a matter that wouldconcern Dylan’s future marriage. Therefore, Sophia comforted the old lady and said, “Relax, Old Mrs.Constance. They’re both mature adults, and they should know to take this matter seriously.”
Old Mrs. Constance nodded, even though she still looked a little worried. “I hope so.”
With nothing else better to do after waking up from her beauty sleep and having breakfast, Sophiadecided to get some fresh air outside when she was done chatting with Old Mrs. Constance.Meanwhile, Jennifer was happily taking a walk around the courtyard as well, humming while swingingher arms freely in a relaxing manner. When Sophia saw her, she didn’t choose to shy away but insteadheaded to the courtyard straightaway.
In the meantime, Jennifer showed a smile when she saw Sophia, much to the latter’s surprise. Then,she greeted Sophia from afar and said, “Hey Sophia, out for a walk again? Oh, I see your tummy isgetting bigger and bigger. Have you confirmed whether your little one is a boy or a girl?”
Nonetheless, Sophia acted as if she didn’t hear Jennifer’s voice, only responding when she got closerto the latter. “It’s good to see you out here for a walk too, Aunt Jennifer. You look jolly today.”
Jennifer reacted with a smile as she didn’t look unhappy about Sophia avoiding her question a fewmoments ago. She then replied, “Yes, I’m out here to get some fresh air before heading back to the
office for lunch with Dylan and his girlfriend later. I heard she is a decent girl, and I have a feeling thingsare going to work out for them.”
Sophia pouted and smiled, replying with an affirmative hum. “Okay, good to know that.” After that, shecontinued to make her way to the courtyard, but Jennifer showed no signs of leaving Sophia alone.Thus, she walked alongside Sophia and said, “Dylan told me that he had known this girl for a while. Infact, he’s been having a crush on her all along, but his shy nature just got in the way, so he didn’tconfess his feelings. I subsequently discovered that and confronted him before he finally admitted it.Haha. He is such a little boy, isn’t he? What’s the shame in admitting your feelings for someone youhave a crush on?”
Ugh. Is she implying something to me? Fine, I’m not going to spend all day thinking about that. I nevergave two hoots about anything she ever said anyway, so why should I care this time? At the thought ofthat, Sophia decided to ignore Jennifer’s every word like she usually did.
However, Jennifer didn’t seem willing to give up. Instead, she continued to speak to Sophia in asarcastic tone. “I heard Dylan’s girlfriend is quite an outstanding lady. She was raised in a wealthyfamily, so you can imagine how well-mannered and well-educated she is. Besides, her good looks arewhat make her a perfect match with my precious boy, Dylan. I doubt he is ever going to find someoneelse like this lovely girl that will make me satisfied and happy.” novelbin
Jennifer continued to follow Sophia around the garden while going on and on about how outstandingDylan’s girlfriend was. Eventually, Sophia grew tired of listening to that, finding Jennifer’s stubbornpersistence annoying. Therefore, she said, “How is Dylan’s work, by the way? I heard that the ThirdConstance Family’s children would be back from overseas and join the company soon. Consideringtheir experience abroad, I bet they’ll likely be offered a good position each.”
As Sophia expected, Jennifer immediately kept her mouth shut upon hearing about work. After all, Johnalready held a higher position than Dylan did in their company. Therefore, it wouldn’t sit well with her ifthe Third Constance Family returned and got on an equal footing with Dylan. Chuckling gleefully,Sophia didn’t continue to elaborate further as she deemed she had made her point clear.
