Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 226

The trip home didn't take a long time. When John's car stopped at the entrance of Ian's house, the sound of cursing could still be heard from the inside. Breathing a sigh of relief, Sophia cracked her knuckles and was ready to rush inside. However, John gave Sophia a look. “You behave yourself. Let’s go inside first and see what’s going on.”

He had just finished saying this when Logan rushed out, appearing to be even more anxious than Sophia. The front gates of the Morgan Residence were closed, so Logan went over to the gates and kicked them. Then, he started cursing, “Sean, Simon and Sally Morgan, and… what’s her name again? Oh, yes, Leah Zimmerman. All of you, come out! What did you do to Ian? I’ll have you know; if there’s even a single hair out of place on his head, all of you will answer to me!”

Sophia put her hand on the doorknob and frowned abruptly. The last time she followed Ian to the Morgan Company, Sean had Ian’s position changed on the spot because of her. However, Logan should be the one whose words carried more weight, so why didn’t Sean treat Ian better for Logan’s sake? She couldn’t understand this. After Logan yelled a few times, someone had come out from the house, who seemed like a servant. That person turned around and went back to the house upon the sight of Logan.

Sophia and John also got out of the car and stood at the door. While Logan punched and kicked at the iron fence gates, yelling non-stop, Sophia stared in the direction of the living room. After a few minutes, Ian came out from inside. He didn't look like there was anything wrong, judging from his expression as he came over to open the gates. "Why did you all come to my place?"

Logan looked at Ian up and down. "Are you okay? Have they beaten you? They’re your family, so it would be difficult for you to lay a hand on them. Leave it to me. I'll take care of them for you."

Ian sighed. “It’s okay. Nothing happened.”

John, who was at the side, spoke up, “Aren't you going to invite us in?”

Ian looked at John, then at Sophia, seemingly hesitant. However, Logan couldn’t care less and he marched toward the door of the living room. Sophia wanted to follow as well, but she was pulled back by John. "You stand at the back. Don't rush to the front."

Sophia made a confused grunt, for she didn't know what John meant. Looking at Ian, John asked, "Did you and your family get into a fight just now?"

Ian grimaced. "It wasn't anything big. Just some small matter. Everything's fine now."

He had just finished speaking when the sound of something breaking came from inside the house; it sounded like glass breaking.

Sophia paused, then she heard Logan’s cursing. So, John and Ian hurried toward the house, while Sophia also followed in stride. There were many people in the living room; all of the Morgans were here. Old Mr. Morgan sat on the sofa, seeming very angry and was coughing non-stop. Meanwhile, Leah stood at the side. Under her feet were shards of glass that seemed to have belonged to a cup or a vase.

Sophia stood at the doorway and looked around. The Morgan siblings all had dark expressions on their faces as they stood around, not saying anything or moving. Without understanding the ins and outs of the situation, Logan just stood where he was and yelled at them, saying that they were bullying Ian.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Sophia moved closer next to Ian, causing John to look at her sideways. However, she didn't notice this as she stood beside Ian and lowered her voice to ask him, "What's going on? Did you get into conflict with these people earlier?"

Ian gave a slight nod. "Look at Simon."

Sophia quickly turned her head to look at Simon, who was standing there, his figure stiff and straight. One side of his face was a little red and it seemed a little swollen. Looking at him for a few seconds, Sophia then turned her head toward Ian. "You hit him?"
