Indeed, Mrs. Constance did not know what had happened during John’s business trip.
However, Old Mrs. Constance did tell her that the news of John’s divorce must not be spread out.
As for the reason, Old Mrs. Constance seemed to be unclear about it too, but her tone of voice sounded serious when she told Mrs. Constance about this.
Hence, Mrs. Constance felt that the consequences that came with this sentence would be devastating.
She felt a slight chill in her heart as she saw how confident Sophia was in carrying out her well-thought plan to blackmail her.
Perhaps, this matter was really serious.
Mrs. Constance was so used to bullying Sophia that her heart felt extremely uncomfortable after being oppressed by her.
Mrs. Constance then squeezed Sophia’s neck and warned, “How dare you?”
Sophia instantly sneered.
In just a few steps, she reached the dressing table and picked up the newly bought bottle of perfume.
Next, without a care, she threw it toward the wall by the side while saying, “Try me.”
The bottle of perfume flew past the side of Mrs. Constance’s face and smashed on the wall behind her.
As the force of the bottle smashing against the wall was strong, the perfume bottle broke into shards of glass, and the sound of it breaking was crisp and clear.
At this moment, Mrs. Constance was shocked by Sophia's action.
She swiftly shrank her neck and even felt the perfume splashing on her back.
Since the perfume bottle was broken into pieces, the entire room smelled of flowers in an instant.
The perfume had a jasmine scent.
Mrs. Constance glared at Sophia; she was unwilling to believe that Sophia had not only challenged her but even dared to fight with her.
This was getting completely out of hand.
Meanwhile, Sophia’s face was icy-cold as she glared at Mrs. Constance without fear and said, “You better not provoke me. Even your son has to talk to me with a good attitude, so you better not act smart with me. If I get upset, I’ll pull John down with me, so don’t blame me for not warning you first.”
Mrs. Constance gritted her teeth; her eyes were about to pop out from all that staring.
The servant quickly went over to support her. “Mrs. Constance, if your voice gets any louder, Old Mrs. Constance will get angry again.”
Mrs. Constance’s chest was rising and falling. She had been married into the Constance Family for so long and had yet to be shamed like this.
Even when she was being unreasonable at times, the entire Constance Family would still treat her with respect.
However, a person without manners like Sophia had already managed to shame her a few times today.
She really is… Mrs. Constance was so angry she started clenching her fist.
Sophia was not pretending; her face was more fierce than Mrs. Constance’s.
Mrs. Constance then took a few deep breaths before slowly turning around and saying to the servant, “Let’s go. I won’t be calculative with uncultured people.”
Suddenly, Sophia opened her mouth. “That is your first strike.”
Mrs. Constance was stunned and turned around to look at her.
Sophia then raised the corner of her lips coldly. “My patience has its limits. This is your first time provoking me, so you better remember it clearly. If the number of times you provoked me increases, I’m unsure of what I’ll do next.”
This was clearly a threat.
Mrs. Constance raised her hand to point at Sophia and said, “You—”
It seemed that she wanted to say something unpleasant, but was immediately interrupted by Sophia. “I should take out my phone to record the cultured lady of the Constance Family’s words and actions for others to see. I’ll let everybody know what John’s mom usually looks like.”
Mrs. Constance then quickly lowered her hand.
The servant by her side could see clearly who had gained the upper hand and who was suffering losses.
She tugged Mrs. Constance’s clothes and said, “It’s enough Mrs. Constance. It’s almost noon now and you usually rest during noon.”
Mrs. Constance was so mad right now that she could not sleep.
However, she still followed the servant’s advice and said, “Let’s go.”
When the two of them walked toward the door, Sophia instructed, “Please shut the door.”
Mrs.Constance did not move. Instead, it was the servant who helped to close the door.
The entire bedroom was filled with the scent of the jasmine-scented perfume.
Luckily, Sophia had opened the windows beforehand.
She also remembered that Isabelle’s body smelled of this perfume.
Indeed, Mrs. Constance is such a suck-up.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Constance stood by the door and gnashed her teeth in anger. Her entire face was contorted with rage.
Her hands were trembling as she took out her phone to call John.
