All the smiles and coy expressions Sophia had on her face were taken back.

 

She proceeded to stand up straight to look back at the door, then asked in a monotonous voice, “What’s Elder Mr. Bailey doing here? Did Isabelle go back and tell him something yesterday?”

John turned to walk toward the back of his desk. “I’m not sure. He just said he was here to have a look and mentioned something about the business.”

Although Elder Mr. Bailey was old, the entire ownership of Bailey Corporation was still held by him as he refused to surrender and let go of his power.

Sophia walked over to sit on the sofa and stretched. “You should thank me. How were my acting skills just now? Was it natural? Did it look sincere?”

John was looking through a document. He only gave her a glance from the corner of his eyes but did not reply to her.

On the other hand, Zack had returned from sending Elder Mr. Bailey off. He closed the door and spoke in a lowered voice. “Elder Mr. Bailey didn’t look quite happy when he left.”

His expression looked sullen.

 

Nonetheless, John did not care much about it. “It’s fine. He’s already been unhappy since a long time ago.”

Ever since the Constance Family broke off their marital engagement, the Baileys started having their own opinions.

Sophia twitched her mouth as she leaned on the sofa without saying anything.

 

Since it was not time to get off work yet, Sophia could only sit there and wait.

Zack had returned to minding his own business while John was reading through his documents.
