Still in a dazed state, Sophia gave it a thought and replied, “The result is okay.”
Unlike her usual self, Jennifer chuckled and said, “Oh well, you’re well cared for here, so I’m sure your baby will be
fine.”
She then turned to William and said, “William, have you come up with a name for the baby? You have to get a boy
name and a girl name ready so that you won’t be flustered when the child is born.”
Looking at Jennifer, William said, “We’ll name the baby according to our family tradition. I think we should hold a
discussion one day to come up with a good name.”
Since Sophia didn’t mind having her child named by other people, she remained silent.

In the past, Dylan would never respond to Jennifer about this topic, but on this day, he grunted and said okay.
Satisfied with his response, Jennifer grinned from ear to ear.
Meanwhile, Jennifer shot a glance at Sophia, who was oblivious to her suspicious stare because she had never
engaged in any immoral interaction with Dylan before. She wondered why Jennifer was so terrified. Sometimes, she
found her laughable.
Noticing that, Old Mrs. Constance glared at Jennifer until the latter felt embarrassed and retracted her gaze.
Following that, Old Mrs. Constance beckoned to Sophia and told her to go over.
Holding Sophia’s hands, Old Mrs. Constance said, “I’m glad that you’ll give birth to a child soon. I haven’t been so
happy for a long time. In the past, I thought that I was wrong to be the matchmaker for you and John. Now, it
seems that it was the best decision I’ve ever made.”
Understanding the hidden message in her words, the others traded glances and shifted their attention to Jennifer
Embarrassed, Jennifer hurriedly said that Dylan was in a relationship currently, and he might bring the woman
home someday. Dylan didn’t refute his mother because he wasn’t interested in this topic. On the other hand,
Sophia didn’t want to argue with them. Now, she didn’t even want to respond to John, let alone Jennifer. Still holding
Sophia’s hands, Old Mrs. Constance kept praising her. Knowing that his mother was displeased with what Jennifer
had said, Owen quickly complimented Sophia as well. Seated beside Sophia, John remained silent. Lowering her

head, Sophia noticed that John had put on his wedding ring. Then, she looked up to observe John, who really
seemed joyful about their second marriage. It was apparent that he was serious about getting together with her
again. Following that, Sophia reached out and held his hand firmly. Although she never uttered a word, John
understood what her gesture meant. When Old Mrs. Constance was done praising Sophia, she went on to talk about
Samuel’s kids, who had been staying in a foreign country and never seemed to have the intention of coming back.
After a sigh, Old Mrs. Constance said, “It makes me feel anxious that they’re not in a hurry to get married.” Samuel
guffawed on the side and replied, “Mom, actually, I’m anxious as well, but I know that it’s pointless to rush them, so
I just pretend that I’m not flustered. Nowadays, young people have their own plans and ambitions. They’re different
from the older generation.”
