Sophia emphasized on the adjectives, and she stared straight at Isabelle. “But I’d advise that animal to be on the
lookout. If it doesn’t, it might just find itself cooped up in jail for its failed schemes. Poor, poor animal.”
Isabelle frowned, agitated by Sophia’s remark. Then, she put her hand on Sophia’s shoulder and shoved her. “I’m
going to do it anyway. What can you do?” she hissed.
Sophia took a few steps back when someone caught her in time. “What are you doing?” Matilda and John
exclaimed at the same time. Immediately, Sophia looked back and saw Matilda holding her.
She was looking at Sophia nervously. “Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?”
It wasn’t a hard shove, so Sophia was fine, then she looked in another direction and saw John coming in. Isabelle
saw him too, and she was shocked, her face paling by the second. Of course, she knew that John cared about
Sophia more than himself at the moment, and he had the scare of his life after Isabelle pushed her. Then, he went
up to them and held Isabelle’s wrist before shoving her away. “What do you think you’re doing, Miss Bailey?”
Isabelle staggered back a few steps before stopping. Still, she looked at John defiantly, albeit being a bit pale.
“You’ve slandered me, Miss Gwendolyn. I don’t think what I did was wrong.”

“Of course she does. She knows I’m pregnant, so she shoved me,” Sophia answered softly, and she dusted off the
spot Isabelle shoved.
Isabelle covered her mouth, pretending to be shocked. “You’re pregnant? I didn’t know that.”
Wow, she is a good faker. Sophia felt like laughing. Meanwhile, Isabelle kept on with her innocent act. “How do you
expect me to know about your pregnancy? You can’t blame me for that. Yes, I did push you, but I never knew
you’re pregnant. I didn’t know, and that’s the end of it.”
Sophia pouted and made an impression of her. “I didn’t know, and that’s the end of it. Good show, Miss Bailey, but
you forgot about one thing. You see, I’m an evil queen to you, so of course I have a backup plan.” Then, Sophia
whipped her phone out. “Sorry, but I recorded what you said. Everything is right here.” When Isabelle saw that, she
froze, and Sophia laughed. “Never lie, Miss Bailey. You never know when it will bite you in the behind.”
Then, Sophia turned to Matilda. “Is it my turn already?”
Matilda looked at Isabelle, upset, and she whispered, “Yes. That’s why I’m here. You’ll be up soon.”
Sophia waved her phone at Isabelle and told John, “I’ll leave this to you. It’s my turn now.” After that, she went to
the consultation room with Matilda, humming along the way.
Matilda’s face fell. “Why aren’t you staying back to see what she has to say?”
“Why should I?” Sophia went to sit on a chair outside the consultation room. She would be up next. “I had the high
ground, and I’m not the kind of person who’d ask for sympathy. You want me to back Isabelle into a corner because
John’s there to back me up? I’m not the kind of person who’d do that. Isabelle’s already fallen into my trap, and
after what I did, John wouldn’t believe her no matter what she says.” She giggled. “So all I have to do is wait. I don’t
have to do this myself.”
