Chapter 954

John tossed his phone up in the air and caught it repeatedly. After giving it a thought, he decided to
send his subordinate a message. Basically, he taught them what they could do if faced with a similar
situation in the future.

Then, he took a seat in front of his computer and reread the files Isabelle had sent him some time ago.
It was difficult to track the other party’s account since the money was transferred from overseas.
However, some regular patterns could be deduced, like how frequently the money was transferred.

Since there were many files, it was until the middle of the night when he managed to finish reading all
of them.

Knocking on his forehead gently, John rose from the chair and returned to the bedroom. Sophia’s
sleeping position had changed as her legs stuck out from under the quilt.

After a sigh, John adjusted the quilt for her and lay down beside her.

A moment later, Sophia draped her arms around his waist and mumbled, “You’re slow.”

John giggled at the words Sophia had uttered in her dream. Perhaps it was a sign of her reliance on
him. Gratified, John hugged her back and grinned before he dozed off as well.

While John was filled with happiness, Isabelle was in a miserable situation.

During dinner, Isabelle’s mother, Philippa Bailey, was sobbing again. She said that she recalled the
times when all her family members could enjoy dinner together. Now that Dexter had passed away, she
was sorrowful that her son’s usual seat was currently empty.



Her sorrow was understandable, but she cried so frequently that Elder Mr. Bailey and her husband had
grown impatient with her.

Holding her mother’s hands, Isabelle said, “Mom, stop living in the past and think for your own future.
You still have your own life to live.”

Philippa brushed her tears off without uttering a word. Having lost her appetite, she was sent back to
her bedroom by the servant.

When Isabelle was having dinner, Elder Mr. Bailey started nagging her by telling her to warm up to
John. He hadn’t found out that John and Sophia had remarried.

Isabelle had wanted to break the truth to him, but her father also persuaded her to look for a capable
man to alleviate the family’s burden, even if that man couldn’t be John. Therefore, Isabelle kept her
silence as she felt helpless.

When dinner was over, she returned to her own bedroom in a listless manner. Just then, her father
appeared at the door and asked her how she had been getting along with John.

Staring at her father, Isabelle replied, “John has remarried Sophia.”

Old Mr. Bailey was startled for a moment and nodded. “It’s a shame, but it’s no big deal.”

For that moment, Isabelle didn’t understand what her father meant when he said it was no big deal.



Gazing at her father, she said, “Since John is remarried, I won’t be able to get together with him.
Moreover, I think we’re not really compatible.”

Before her father could speak, she went on to say, “John is married with a kid now. Even if I really love
him, I don’t want to be his child’s stepmother. I will feel aggrieved.”

With her eyes fixed on her father, she continued, “It’s not like John is the only man in this world. If I
want, I can always look for a better man.”

After eyeing his daughter for a while, he sighed. “I know you’re good enough for a capable man. But
Belle, your grandpa and I don’t have much time left.”

Leaning on the windowsill, he gazed out the window. “After Dexter’s death, I can feel that my health
has deteriorated. For the past few days, it was really difficult for me at work. I’m old now, and I have to
admit this fact. I wish I could give you more time to look for a perfect partner for yourself, but I’m afraid
that before you can find one, I’ll be too frail by then.”
