The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
Chapter 296

Since Sophia didn't know anything about tea sets, she could only tell that this particular one looked quite delicate and exquisite.

The tea set comprises a teapot and a few teacups, the color combination of which was in harmony.

Picking up the large teapot, Young Master Owen held it up to the light for a scrutiny.

Just then, William went over and commented, "This teapot looks like it has been around for some years."

In response, Young Master Owen nodded. "The tea set is made up of antique fine bone china. There is a tea pot accompanied by several tea cups. The whole set looks impressive!" John finally saw the complete set inside the box.

Standing next to Sophia, John remained silent for a while before he slowly said, "lan is really generous."

When Sophia heard what he said, her smile disappeared. Frowning, she turned to look at John with an unpleasant expression.

What does this have to do with lan? Is this man crazy?

However, it wasn't appropriate for her to rebuke him in front of so many people, so she pretended not to hear him.

At the same time, Isabelle, who had also brought a gift, was standing at the door.

For some reason, her gift had been placed on the sofa.

Young Master Owen was still squatting on the ground and checking the tea set out. It was apparent that he loved it very much.

The sight made Old Mrs. Constance smile helplessly at Sophia. "Your Uncle Owen likes to drink tea and has many tea sets at home. You really understand him."

Sophia laughed along upon hearing that. Next time I see Logan, I must praise him more.

He is really my lucky star.

Just then, Mrs. Constance snorted behind the crowd.

Old Mrs. Constance heard it, but she didn't say anything seeing as it was a happy occasion today.

After looking on for a while before, Dylan walked up to Sophia. "You must have spent a lot of time selecting this gift."

The words unintentionally made her embarrassed as this tea set was taken out of someone else's storage room.

She didn't select it at all.

However, given that so many people had approved of her choice, she had to take this truth to the grave.

Chuckling, she said casually, "Oh, it's nothing."

Young Master Owen could not wait to try this tea set out right away. After clearing the coffee table, he placed the tea set on it and brought some water over.

Because his living room was large, everyone could sit down comfortably.

Old Mrs. Constance also went to sit on the sofa and let Sophia sit next to her.

She kept holding Sophia's hand.

Lowered her head and looked at Old Mrs. Constance, she understood what was going on.

Isabelle was here today. No matter what the relationship between John and Sophia was like, Old Mrs. Constance had to make clear to everyone about her status in the Constance Family on this occasion. Her purpose was to make Sophia's status known to Isabelle and everyone in the Constance Family.

For now, Old Mrs. Constance didn't care about what would happen between John and Isabelle in the future. What she wanted to do was to prevent the other members of the Constance Family from picking out any faults.

Isabelle was still standing at the door. Watching Sophia sitting between Old Mrs. Constance and John, her expression was now calm.

She had mentally prepared herself before coming over today.

Based on her understanding of Sophia's character, that woman was definitely able to embarrass her somehow.

This current situation was actually the best scenario she could hope for.

Invested in the tea set, Young Master Owen had his wife go bring the tea leaves over, while he started to methodically cleanse all the pieces of the tea set.

He handled it so carefully as if he was bathing a baby.

Observing Young Master Owen acting this way, Sophia suddenly thought of his past serious appearance. This is very different from his usual self, but I guess it's a nice change.

After a brief consideration, Mrs. Constance pulled Isabelle into the room. Originally, Owen's brother, Young Master Samuel, was sitting on the other side of John. But when Mrs. Constance came over, he moved away automatically.

Together with Isabelle, Mrs. Constance sat beside John.

Isabelle leaned toward John with a look of curiosity. "Uncle Owen seems to like tea sets very much. I didn't know that before."
