After seeing John’s agitated reaction, Owen stood up in a panic. “Hey, wait!” Nevertheless, John stomped off with Sophia, ignoring Owen who was calling out to him. Meanwhile, Old Mrs. Constance sat on the couch with a darkened look just as Owen awkwardly met her gaze. “That’s not what I meant, Mom! You guys are getting the wrong idea!”
Wrong idea or not, you can’t take back your words anymore. Disappointed with Owen and his wife, Old Mrs. Constance lectured both of them. “I don’t understand what you both are doing. Must you both always give everyone a headache? Dylan is a grown man, so stop treating him like a kid. He is mature enough to make his own life decisions. As for you, Jennifer, do you really think we’re too dumb to read between the lines when you threw those hints at Sophia? Do you know that you’re only making Dylan feel even more awkward?”
Upon hearing that, Lady Jennifer was instantly tongue-tied as she guiltily rubbed her hands. In the meantime, Samuel only watched aside in silence until it was the right time for him to speak. Then, he changed the subject and said, “Owen, I’m sure you want to restore peace in your family, so this is the time for you to let go. Dylan is old enough to make his own decisions, and you guys need to treat him as an adult, not a child. You’re only going to get on his nerves for interfering with his every decision.”
In response, Owen nodded. Then, in a much softer voice than earlier, he said, “Alright, I heard you.”
On the other hand, Sophia and John returned to the main building and entered the dining area. Then, Sophia had the maid serve her another plate of hot food before she started eating. Even though she didn’t take that matter to heart, John’s anger got the better of him. He was seen picking up the fork and spoon shortly before he put them down on the table again.
Sophia looked askance at him. “Seriously?”
Impressed with Sophia’s magnanimity, John said, “How can you remain so calm?”

So what happens to Ian and Cindy. Is she/ or does she get pregnant? Do they go back to the city and Ian works with Logan? Does Aurora stay in the entertainment industry or return with Ian? Terrible ending, who cares if Aurora was drinking/drunk with colleagues. What happened with Ian and Cindy?!...
Get rid of Gary. Apparently Cindy is too dumb to figure out his motives 😡...
Why are you trying to break them up when they just got together and are a loving couple. Let them stay close and move back to their true friends, Logan, Lola, John and Sophia!...
Sure hope Ian pulls his head out of his behind and works this out with Cindy. His brother needs him at the company and neither one of them truly like the celebrity life. Sophia and Lola will love her …....
I can’t wait for John to take down the Bailey’s including Isabelle so he, Sophia, William and Matilda can live in peace. Introduce Yolanda to Richard so they are out of the picture....
Ugh, don’t break up Sophia and John… they belong together and Sophia is just stubborn for no reason...
Sophia lives John, he just needs to tell her he loves her and get on with their life and family. Too much interference from others....
Sophia is so stupid....
John needs to man up, tell his mother and Isabelle to take a flying leap and confess to Sophia that he made a horrible mistake in divorcing her. This story is taking too long and once again, the bitches are looking like they are on the right side. Awful...
