Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 801


With the glass of water in her hands, Sophia said, “I have a smaller appetite now. If I drink any water now, I won’t be able to eat anything later. So, I’d better not drink it now. Anyway, I accept your apology, therefore you don’t have to mention it again in the future.”

Isabelle shot a look at her glass of water and replied, “If you say so.”

Matilda gazed at the glass and thought, The glass of water was already there when we arrived, thus it must be Isabelle who had prepared it. So, Sophia’s concern wasn’t unfounded. She then raised her gaze to examine Isabelle, who didn’t appear to be flustered or guilty.

Isabelle stared back at her with confidence. A moment later, she turned to John and talked about their recent business cooperation.

Most of the time, John listened to her without uttering a word, while making occasional grunts. It was apparent to the others that John wasn’t interested in discussing work on this occasion.

As though she wasn’t aware of it, Isabelle went on to talk about the stocks she would be buying from Constance Company and even went over the details.

Bored by the conversation, Sophia rested her arms on the table and turned to Matilda. “On our way here, I saw you staring at a new message without replying to the person. What’s wrong? Was it Master William?”

Freezing on the spot, Matilda turned to her and said in a lowered voice, “Can we talk about it when no other people are around?”

Batting her eyes, Sophia chuckled. “Who are you wary of here?”

Although she was speaking in a suppressed voice, there were the four of them who were seated around a small table. Unless Matilda and Sophia were whispering in each other’s ears, the others would hear them.

Indeed, after Isabelle finished talking, she heard what Sophia said. Upon picking up a glass of water and taking a sip, Matilda continued, “I’m not wary of anyone, but this matter should only be discussed in private.”

Although there was nothing wrong with what Matilda had said, Isabelle still felt irked. Lifting her glass to shield her face from the others, a sense of resentment flashed across her expression.

When the dishes were served, they had to stop talking. While Sophia remained silent, Matilda reminded her to take in a balanced diet. In a motherly manner, she talked about what food Sophia should eat more and what food the latter should refrain from having.
