Chapter 653

John gave her a nod before saying, “Alright, let’s go home.”

Since they weren’t far away from home, they turned back. Back in her room, Sophia sat down in bed,
feelings of drowsiness having dissipated. In the meantime, John had been talking over the phone
nonstop, seemingly handling matters pertaining to the man involved in the recent incident.

Sophia scratched her head while making a review on everything she knew. Fabian and Matilda were
the only ones who knew of her pregnancy, but both were crossed out from the list of suspects. On the
other hand, those who didn’t know of her pregnancy but had a motive to harm her were Isabelle and
Walter.

While she wasn’t sure if Walter had tailed her to the city, he didn’t seem like someone who would hire a
man to hurt her. He was obviously in a tight spot himself, so he would never do so if he wanted her to
be his cashcow, which left Isabelle as the only suspect.

However, Isabelle shouldn’t have known of her pregnancy. Besides, Sophia didn’t think she would
stoop so low. No matter how she looked at the situation, nobody seemed like a suspect, which
frustrated her. Might it be an accident after all? she mused. However, it didn’t feel like one, as the man
was staring straight at her when they were about to collide, as if making sure that he wouldn’t miss her.
It was obviously a staged incident.

After making one last call in the hallway, John sat down on her bed upon entering her room. “My
mother will be here shortly.”

Startled, Sophia asked, “Why is she coming here?”



John heaved a sigh before explaining, “She called me just now, so I told her what happened. As soon
as she heard about it, she grew anxious and decided to come take a look.”

Pursing her lips, Sophia only managed a hum despite having mulled over the situation, as she didn’t
know what else to say. Meanwhile, John caressed her hair. “I had my men bring the man with them. We
might get a few leads after some interrogation.”

Sophia cast a glance his way before asking, “So is someone really trying to hurt me?”

That was what John failed to grasp, so he answered in hesitation, “But I don’t understand what’s the
point in doing this at all, since it wouldn’t have much of an impact on anyone.”

Sophia’s gaze flickered for a second before she echoed feebly, “You’re right.”

Soon enough, sounds of footsteps coming from the stairs indicated Matilda’s arrival. Relief washed
over Matilda upon seeing that Sophia was sitting on her bed unaffected. She didn’t even spare John a
glance when she walked up to them. “Are you hurt anywhere? You must be shocked. Would you like
some hot chocolate to help relieve your distress?”

Frowning, John was surprised by Matilda’s behavior. “Mom, what’s the matter?” Matilda never liked
Sophia to begin with, but she seemed earnest in her concern over Sophia, which puzzled John.

Startled, Matilda let out a cry upon realizing she wasn’t acting in character, so she tried to cover it up
with a chuckle. “It’s nothing. I was merely worried about you after knowing something like that occurred.
How are you feeling, John?”



John shook his head after staring at her for some time. “I’m fine, since I was never the target to begin
with.”

Turning to Sophia, Matilda realized that she had been looking her way, which left her slightly flustered.
She never used to feel concerned over Sophia, and would mostly speak to her in a jarring manner, so
the sudden change in attitude on her part seemed unnatural. Exhaling, Matilda changed the topic.
“What kind of person would run around so carelessly at night anyway.”

Sophia had her eyes fixed on Matilda for a while before querying, “Why are you here at this hour?”
