Upon finishing her words, Old Mrs. Constance paused for a moment and smacked her lips. “In fact, I had wanted to
look for an auspicious day for you to register for marriage.”
John hurriedly interrupted her. “There’s no need for that! Today will do. This is an auspicious day.”
Obviously, John was afraid that Sophia would regret her decision if this dragged on. Seeing this, Matilda and Old
Mrs. Constance giggled.
Sophia’s lips curved into a smile while she gazed at John.
When lunch was ready, they took a seat around the table in the dining hall. In an excited tone, John asked Sophia
whether she wanted another wedding ceremony. After all, their divorce was made known to everyone, so he
wanted a grand wedding to inform the public that they were going to remarry.

now, I feel exhausted all the time, so I don’t want to spend time worrying about a wedding. We have to live our own
lives, and we don’t have to display our affection to the public.”
In the past, she would want to show off her love with John to Isabelle, but after all that had happened, she didn’t
find it necessary anymore. With a baby in her stomach, she didn’t have to show anyone that she was loved.
Old Mrs. Constance nodded. “I’m glad that Sophia has become more mature now
” When a person becomes mature, their life will be stable as well. I’m sure John and Sophia will be able to spend the
rest of their lives peacefully. Nevertheless, John felt that without a wedding, it was unfair to Sophia. After staring at
her for a while, he said, “Alright. I’ll respect your decision. After the child is born, we’ll go on a honeymoon.” They
didn’t have a honeymoon when they got married for the first time. At that time, the idea of a honeymoon never
even occurred to him. He thought that he was already kind enough to hold a wedding for her. Thinking back, he
was regretful that he maltreated her. After giving him a grunt, Sophia said, “We’ll see.” It was apparent to everyone
else that Sophia didn’t care what came after their remarriage, so they changed the topic and started talking about
John’s work. Old Mrs. Constance told John to delegate more work to his employees. As Sophia’s belly was growing
bigger, she needed him to spend more time with her. In the past, work was John’s top priority, and he rarely cared
about Sophia. This time, Old Mrs. Constance hoped that he had learned his lesson. Understanding what his
grandmother was trying to say, John nodded. “When I’m done with the work at hand, I’ll delegate more work to my
employees.

Nothing is more important than Sophia now.” Without responding to him, Sophia kept nibbling at her food. In
comparison to how excited the others were, she seemed to be impassive. After lunch, John went upstairs to get
changed, while Sophia stayed in the living room to watch television. When John was done getting changed, he
paced around Sophia, but he didn’t dare to urge her to hurry up. Seeing as Sophia never responded to him, he then
talked to his mother and kept mentioning the time. Sophia and the other ladies never saw John like this before. It
seemed that he was really anxious. When Sophia was done watching the last episode, she rose from the couch and
stretched her shoulders. Without uttering a word, she walked up the stairs. Seeing this, John followed her closely.
After getting into the room, Sophia walked up to the wardrobe, whereupon John leaned close to her and said, “I’ve
picked out a dress for you. Look at this. Do you like it?” There was a dress on the bed which was chosen by John
when he was getting changed. Sophia turned to take a look at the dress. I see… He picked one of my favorite
dresses.
