The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
Chapter 464

Upon hearing Sophia's rejection, Old Mrs. Constance sighed and explained, "Actually, it's Old Mrs. Blackwell who wants to invite you to a meal through me. After you got a good result from the fortune-telling for them, their business started picking up. Therefore, she wants to thank you personally."

Sophia smiled. "There's no need to thank me since I have taken such an expensive item from them. Moreover, I got the result out of luck, and it didn't cost me anything, so she doesn't have to thank me." Old Mrs. Constance sighed. "Despite what you have said, she now regards you to be their benefactor. Since she's so hospitable, it's really inappropriate that you don't come over."

Sophia covered her forehead and said, "Madam, I really—"

Before she could finish her words, Old Mrs. Constance interrupted, "Sophia, I miss you very much. Don't you want to pay me a visit?"

Her words rendered Sophia speechless. To be honest, she didn't miss anyone from the Constance Family, including Old Mrs. Constance. Although Old Mrs. Constance was good to her currently, she wasn't like this in the past.

Since Sophia didn't utter a word, Old Mrs. Constance directly made the decision for her. "Alright. You'll come to my house tomorrow. I'll tell the cooks to get ready. When you arrive tomorrow, we'll have a proper chat."

Sophia gave it a thought. Since the next day would be a working day, John would supposedly be at the company. Hence, she probably wouldn't come across him. After hesitating for a moment, she gave an affirmative grunt, saying, "I'll go to your house in the morning since it's not easy to hail a taxi in the evening these days."

It wasn't certain whether Old Mrs. Constance understood why Sophia decided to go over in the morning, but she immediately agreed to it. "Alright. You can come over in the morning and have lunch with us. I'll tell the chauffeur to send you home in the afternoon."

Sophia replied, "Okay."

When the conversation was over, she hung up the call. Leaning against the car, her expression was somewhat worried.

The next day, Sophia dilly-dallied until she believed that John must have left the Constance Residence before she hailed a taxi.

When she reached there, she was relieved that John really had left the residence. Old Mrs. Constance and Old Mrs. Blackwell were seated in the yard in front of the main building as they were chatting and laughing.

Sophia walked over with a chair. Seeing her, Old Mrs. Blackwell rose from her chair slowly and called out, "Sophia."

Sophia hastened her steps. "Madam Blackwell."

Old Mrs. Blackwell flashed a smile at her. "You're finally here. I've been waiting for you."

Sophia then turned to Old Mrs. Constance and greeted her.

Old Mrs. Constance nodded. "Why are you calling me Madam now instead of Grandma?"

Sophia forced a smile, not knowing what to say.

Then, Old Mrs. Constance changed the topic, saying, "Come on. Let's get in. It's almost afternoon now. Look how scorching the sun is."

Sophia helped Old Mrs. Blackwell get into the living room.

Not knowing what happened between Sophia and John, Old Mrs. Blackwell asked who Sophia was fond of. She would be glad to help her check on the man. Sophia put on an embarrassed smile. "H-He's busy."

Old Mrs. Blackwell patted Sophia's hands. "You have to be careful when looking for a suitable man. If you get married to the wrong man, you will regret it for the rest of your life." Sophia traded glances with Old Mrs. Constance, whose expression was uneasy.

I did marry the wrong man. If he were the right man, we wouldn't have divorced, Sophia thought.

After chatting for a while, Old Mrs. Blackwell asked Sophia about her family members.

Upon a moment of hesitation, Sophia replied, "I'm the only one left in my family."

Old Mrs. Blackwell was startled. "Your parents-"
