Sophia let slip a chuckle before replying, “Is that so? I was expecting to meet you during such an occasion.”
What Sophia said was rather confrontational, but Isabelle didn’t seem to mind at all, as she retained her smile while
saying, “How long have you been here? I just arrived. There are so many guests, but I know none of them, so it’s
making me feel a little awkward.”
While Isabelle spoke, Sophia was observing the white gown Isabelle wore. She seemed otherworldly in her gown,
which was befitting of her temperament. In comparison, Sophia thought she seemed tacky, but that was a fact she
didn’t deny; she thought that she was destined for the life of a common folk who needed to work hard to earn her
wages.
John approached Sophia to stand by her side. “We just arrived as well.” While John spoke, Logan walked up to them
with a sullen look on his face upon noticing Isabelle’s presence, as he disliked both Isabelle and her mother.
Besides, he was never one to hide his emotions, so people could easily get to know who was on his blacklist by
observing his facial expressions. He stood beside Sophia as well, but his words were directed at Isabelle. “Why are
you here?”

He sounded even more confrontational than Sophia, but Isabelle tried her best to respond in a casual manner. “I
came with my father.”
After hearing what she told him, Logan examined her from head to toe before saying, “This gown looks nice on you.
It suits you. Why would you even think of taking some other person’s gown? With some effort, you can always find
one that fits you.”
Although Logan supposedly didn’t mean anything else, his words came out slightly twisted, which he didn’t seem to
notice himself, but both Sophia and Isabelle could detect the underlying implications in what he said.
With a half smirk, Sophia suggested, “Let’s not stand here, as we’re getting quite some attention. We should go to
the reception hall instead.” She knew that Isabelle was trying to attract more attention by calling out to her loudly
earlier, so she figured she should comply with that by moving to an even more crowded location.
The four of them garnered a lot of attention as soon as they entered the reception hall. Sophia was John’s ex-wife,
while Isabelle was supposedly his girlfriend, and the three were accompanied by Logan, who was notorious for his
bad temper.
The fact that the four of them were together made for splendid gossip, which was why the crowd around them
were huddled among themselves while glancing at Sophia. They all seemed to be expecting a good show.

Sophia wore a smile while wondering if they assumed Isabelle and her would fight in public. As they were both
civilized individuals, they wouldn’t do it in public even if they were to start a brawl. Truth be told, Sophia disliked the
fact that Isabelle would put on a smile regardless of if she liked the individual she was facing.
Compared to her, Sophia much preferred spending time with someone like Logan, whom she could easily read, as it
was safer to associate herself with that kind of person. People like Isabelle were good at disguising themselves, so
their shady actions might even go undetected. Even someone like Matilda was easier to deal with compared to
Isabelle.
Upon reaching that conclusion, Sophia could no longer hold back the question in her mind, so she turned to look at
John. “I have something that I’ve been meaning to ask you.”
Instead of giving her a reply on the spot, John gestured at the seats in the lounge area beside them, so Isabelle and
Logan went over. After that, John looked at Sophia while asking, “What’s the matter? What is it that you would like
to know?”
Sophia didn’t follow Logan and Isabelle. Instead, she moved closer to John before asking, “Are your parents…?” She
didn’t finish her sentence as she assumed he would know what she was trying to ask.
However, all John did was stare at her in silence. Sophia didn’t want anybody else overhearing their conversation,
so she moved even closer to him before repeating her question. “Are you parents really divorced?”
A smile tugged at the corner of John’s lips. Neither Logan nor Isabelle were close to them, so the fact that John and
Sophia stood so close to each other garnered the attention of quite a number of people.
