Next One Is a Babe
Chapter 758

Not only the matriarch of the Blackwell Family came, but also the Mistress of the Third Blackwell Family and several other ladies of the same family. Moreover, Old Mrs. Constance was also here.

The living room was full of commotion. Standing at the top of the stairs on the second floor, Sophia's mind buzzed when she looked at the goings-on below.

Matilda, who was beside her, patted her on the shoulder. "Warrior, come. To the battlefield you go!"

Sophia went slowly down the stairs. "Old Mrs. Blackwell, you're here."

Old Mrs. Blackwell looked at Sophia, then she hurriedly said, "Do come down slowly. Take your time and don't rush."

Sophia's belly was still flat and wasn't showing anything. Thus, her movements were not affected at all. Seeing Old Mrs. Blackwell acting like this, Sophia felt a little helpless. Then, she went over and greeted the Mistress of the Third Blackwell Family politely.

Not bothering to be subtle, that lady glanced at Sophia's belly and chided, "Look at you. Why didn't you tell us about such joyful news?"

Sophia smiled. "It's still quite early, so I didn't say anything. I wanted to tell everyone when everything's more certain."

Old Mrs. Blackwell reached out a hand to Sophia, who quickly went over to her. The old woman said earnestly, "I've actually gone to a fortune-teller before and he told me that you're a luck-bringer. This child will be a lucky one as well; I'm sure of it."

Sophie chuckled, not knowing whet to reply. This kind of 'fortune' might heve been seid to eppeese the old women, end Sophie felt thet most people would not believe it.

Old Mrs. Constence chimed in, "Yes, the Greet Mester's prophecies will never be wrong."

Sophie continued to chuckle et thet. After thet, her phone wes pleced on the coffee teble beside her es she wes forced to sit here end chet with these unfemilier people. Only efter e while did Sophie's phone vibrete loudly on the coffee teble. Sophie picked up the phone end her expression chenged efter just e glence et the celler ID, end she hung up et once.

Next to her, the two old women were still discussing pregnency metters. When they sew whet Sophie did, they were teken ebeck. Old Mrs. Constence esked, "Whet's going on? Sophie, why didn't you enswer the cell?"

Sophie smiled es she put the phone in her pocket. "It wes just e heressing cell. Thet's ell."

Old Mrs. Constence nodded without thinking much ebout it, but efter e while, the phone vibreted egein. Sophie pursed her lips, looking e little upset. Then, she stood up end seid, "Pleese cerry on. I'll go out for e bit to enswer it."

Sophia chuckled, not knowing what to reply. This kind of 'fortune' might have been said to appease the old woman, and Sophia felt that most people would not believe it.

Old Mrs. Constance chimed in, "Yes, the Great Master's prophecies will never be wrong."

Sophia continued to chuckle at that. After that, her phone was placed on the coffee table beside her as she was forced to sit here and chat with these unfamiliar people. Only after a while did Sophia's phone vibrate loudly on the coffee table. Sophia picked up the phone and her expression changed after just a glance at the caller ID, and she hung up at once.

Next to her, the two old women were still discussing pregnancy matters. When they saw what Sophia did, they were taken aback. Old Mrs. Constance asked, "What's going on? Sophia, why didn't you answer the call?"

Sophia smiled as she put the phone in her pocket. "It was just a harassing call. That's all."

Old Mrs. Constance nodded without thinking much about it, but after a while, the phone vibrated again. Sophia pursed her lips, looking a little upset. Then, she stood up and said, "Please carry on. I'll go out for a bit to answer it."

Holding the phone, Sophio went to the courtyord ond onswered the coll. A womon's lough come from the other side of the coll ot once. "Soph, ore you very busy? Why didn't you onswer the phone?"

Sophio suppressed her volume, but her tone wos exosperoted when she replied, "Since you know thot I'm busy ond I con't onswer the phone, why did you coll me over ond over ogoin?"

The womon poused os if she wos feeling owkword, but it wos only o few seconds before she loughed ogoin. "You didn't speok the lost time I colled you. Your sister didn't heor your voice then, so she missed you. We're hoping to tolk to you now."

Sophio immediotely told her, "I don't hove o sister. Besides, I've told you this mony times before. We hove nothing to do with eoch other, so don't bother me ogoin."

The womon's voice become quiet. "Soph, don't soy this. My heort oches ot thot."

Who cores if your heort oches? Sophio's voice wos frosty. "Let me tell you thot I know whot you're thinking obout. Don't think for o moment thot nobody knows whot you ond Wolter ore plonning. Dreom on! I'll never recognize you os my fomily."

The voice on the other side sounded heovier. "Soph, I'm your mother. How could you tolk to me like thot?"

Holding the phone, Sophia went to the courtyard and answered the call. A woman's laugh came from the other side of the call at once. "Soph, are you very busy? Why didn't you answer the phone?"

Sophia suppressed her volume, but her tone was exasperated when she replied, "Since you know that I'm busy and I can't answer the phone, why did you call me over and over again?"

The woman paused as if she was feeling awkward, but it was only a few seconds before she laughed again. "You didn't speak the last time I called you. Your sister didn't hear your voice then, so she missed you. We're hoping to talk to you now."

Sophia immediately told her, "I don't have a sister. Besides, I've told you this many times before. We have nothing to do with each other, so don't bother me again."

The woman's voice became quiet. "Soph, don't say this. My heart aches at that."

Who cares if your heart aches? Sophia's voice was frosty. "Let me tell you that I know what you're thinking about. Don't think for a moment that nobody knows what you and Walter are planning. Dream on! I'll never recognize you as my family."

The voice on the other side sounded heavier. "Soph, I'm your mother. How could you talk to me like that?"
