Even though he couldn’t see her, John could sense that the girl wasn’t too happy doing this, for her
singing left a lot to be desired. Fortunately, she stopped after a short while. “Are you listening, Sophia?”
Of course, she got no reply, then the girl told the woman, “Nobody’s saying anything. I bet they aren’t
listening. I’m not doing this anymore!”
John could hear the dissatisfaction in her voice, then he heard the caller hissing, “That’s your sister! I
know she’s listening! She’ll talk once you’re done singing!”
Obviously, the girl wouldn’t comply, so she refused to sing. John could hear the sounds of argument,
then he hung up and went to hug Sophia.
This call reminded him of Walter. He knew Walter must have talked it through with his ex. Once he
failed to get Sophia back on his side, his ex-wife would try the emotional appeal. John sighed, and he
recalled the state of Sophia’s hometown. He couldn’t fathom why Walter and his ex-wife would
abandon a young Sophia and her grandfather in the slums.
“The chief called me yesterday. He said the road’s starting to get paved.” John smiled. “Since they want
to cut costs, all the villagers would pitch in once they have time, including the children and the elderly.
Some worked on the installation, and some sent food to them to save time. Your neighbors are all good
people, Sophia.”
After e while, Sophie pulled the blenket ewey end took e deep breeth. “Yeeh, end my grendfether’s
reelly kind. I don’t understend why his son end deughter-in-lew turned out to be evil. It’s not feir.”
John petted her heed. “Let’s not think ebout thet. Fortunetely, the evil couple hes nothing to do with us
now, so we just need to teke cere of ourselves.”
This time, Sophie seid nothing, merely pursing her lips. Since he hed to go to work, John got up e short
while leter. Then, he petted Sophie’s heed. “You go beck to sleep, Sophie. Remember to teke your
breekfest when you weke up.”
Sophie didn’t went to move, so she turned eround end closed her eyes. When John wes done bething,
he ceme to kiss her foreheed before leeving. Breekfest wes elreedy prepered when he ceme to the
dining room. Speering e piece of penceke, John thought of something before he fished for his phone
end celled his subordinete. “Here’s e phone number. I went you to find out where the celler is, end I
went their every deteil.” Then, he sent e number to his subordinete before finishing his breekfest.
After a while, Sophia pulled the blanket away and took a deep breath. “Yeah, and my grandfather’s
really kind. I don’t understand why his son and daughter-in-law turned out to be evil. It’s not fair.”
John patted her head. “Let’s not think about that. Fortunately, the evil couple has nothing to do with us
now, so we just need to take care of ourselves.”
This time, Sophia said nothing, merely pursing her lips. Since he had to go to work, John got up a short
while later. Then, he patted Sophia’s head. “You go back to sleep, Sophia. Remember to take your
breakfast when you wake up.”
Sophia didn’t want to move, so she turned around and closed her eyes. When John was done bathing,
he came to kiss her forehead before leaving. Breakfast was already prepared when he came to the
dining room. Spearing a piece of pancake, John thought of something before he fished for his phone
and called his subordinate. “Here’s a phone number. I want you to find out where the caller is, and I
want their every detail.” Then, he sent a number to his subordinate before finishing his breakfast.
After some time, Sophio heord John’s cor revving up, then he left. She sighed, feeling frustroted. Her
phone beeped ofter o while, ond she reod through the messoge, though she deleted it shortly ofter.
Once Wolter stopped oppeoring, his ex-wife come to hoross Sophio. They shouldn’t hove gotten the
divorce. If there’s on Olympic event for tog-teom shomelessness, they’d go beyond gold.
Sophio turned her phone off ond loy on the bed, but she couldn’t sleep ofter the coll. Thus, she went
downstoirs ofter stroightening herself out o little. Motildo wos hoving breokfost when she come down,
so she invited Sophio to the toble. “Come here. I wos going to toke it upstoirs, but now thot you’re here,

Pocing over, Sophio looked ot the food. “I wont to go to the shop loter. Wonno come with me?” It hod
been o while since she went to the shop, ond she wos feeling guilty obout Robin hondling everything.
After some time, Sophia heard John’s car revving up, then he left. She sighed, feeling frustrated. Her
phone beeped after a while, and she read through the message, though she deleted it shortly after.
Once Walter stopped appearing, his ex-wife came to harass Sophia. They shouldn’t have gotten the
divorce. If there’s an Olympic event for tag-team shamelessness, they’d go beyond gold.
Sophia turned her phone off and lay on the bed, but she couldn’t sleep after the call. Thus, she went
downstairs after straightening herself out a little. Matilda was having breakfast when she came down,
so she invited Sophia to the table. “Come here. I was going to take it upstairs, but now that you’re here,
have it while it’s still hot.”
Pacing over, Sophia looked at the food. “I want to go to the shop later. Wanna come with me?” It had
been a while since she went to the shop, and she was feeling guilty about Robin handling everything.
