Sophia’s restraint was not out of consideration for the other woman’s dignity. Instead, she was worried that kicking up a fuss about her husband’s affair would only embarrass herself more. After all, her social status was incomparable to that of Third Young Lady Jefferson’s.
If she had made a fuss, the public would only think that she was clinging tightly onto John for his wealth. There was no need for that humiliation.
After two rounds of Monopoly, she received a call from Zack. He had brought the construction workers to the desserts store and told her that they would start working based on the design plan. “Alright, I’ll let you decide. I have trust in you.”
Zack laughed. “If so, I will give this store a makeover based on the design I have in mind.”
“No problem,” she coolly replied. “I have trust in your taste.”
Zack laughed again. “Alright. I’ll get busy now. I’ll show you photos of our progress later at night.”
After the call, she leaned against her chair. “I’m not playing anymore. I kept losing, and I completely lost interest in the game.”
Logan thought that the call was from John. “One call from your husband, and you lost interest in the game. Why don’t you confess that you miss him and want to go home?”
She snorted coldly and diverted the topic of conversation, “Have you gotten in touch with Ian? I don’t know what has happened to him over the past two days. After that fuss at the Morgans, his family is definitely going to give him a hard time.”
Logan packed the Monopoly cards and handed them over to the two waiters. “His life hasn’t been rosy. If not, he would not have to leave home for a few years. Now that he’s back and has agreed to join his family company, he must have come fully-prepared for the drama.”
After some thought, Sophia fished her phone out and texted Ian. As soon as she sent the message, Ian gave her a call and asked for her whereabouts.
She gave Logan a look. “I’m at Logan’s clubhouse.”
Hearing her reply, Ian chuckled. “I guessed so. Are you on the second floor? Which room?”

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...
