Sophia was startled. Although she wasn't thirsty, she was still surprised that Isabelle stopped her. Upon finishing her words impassively, Isabelle lowered her head and continued eating her food. John shot Isabelle a look as his gaze turned from cold to indifferent. When the meal was over, certainly John wouldn't let Isabelle pay the bill. After making an excuse that he needed to use the toilet, he left the room and headed to the cashier counter.

Just when he was paying the bill, Isabelle appeared from behind as she called out to him and said, "I knew you were coming here to pay the bill." John grunted and fell silent. In fact, Isabelle wasn't here to snatch the bill from him, as the meal wasn't expensive. When the bill was paid, Isabelle stared at him and said, "Can we have a talk?

When they were still married, Sophia was the perfect wife as she took good care of him. But at that time, he was disdainful of her.
