Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 241


Really guys? How did you accidentally bring John in?

Logan didn't pay attention to this, but Ian heard it.

He took up his chopsticks and gave Sophia a pair. "Let's eat. We've been working for so long."

Logan originally wanted to blow up because of Sophia's words, but when he heard Ian's words, his face fell. "I have also been working for a long time. Hurry and give me a pair of chopsticks, too."

Ian gave Logan a pair of chopsticks as well while he was at it.

This way, Ian’s gestures earlier wouldn’t seem out of place.

When John was eating, he said nothing.

Logan, on the other hand, couldn't remain idle. He talked about the Morgans again.

Ian smiled. "Let's not talk about them. It will affect our mood."

Logan turned his head and looked at Ian. "Ian, work hard in your company. If possible, I will help you to take over the company."

Ian snorted. "I don't understand a thing about running a company. The company will soon collapse if I'm in charge."

Logan blinked, then looked at John suddenly. "John knows how to run a company. You could get him to teach you."

John raised his eyes and looked at Ian, who also looked at him.

The two looked calm on the surface, but there was in fact a lot of stuff going through their eyes.

Ian paused for two seconds. "Let's talk about this next time. For now, I'm studying with Mr. Zimmel. I can learn a lot from him."

Logan didn't think too much about it and just nodded. "That's true."

Next, Logan talked about his own company.

When it came to doing business, he was even worse off than Ian. He only knew how to play mahjong and nothing else.

He said that his third oldest sister called him a few days ago, saying that he shouldn't loiter around all day and that he should go to the company to learn how to run it.

Logan was a little unhappy about that. He wanted nothing more than to meld with a mahjong table and play mahjong everyday. He didn't have time to learn other things.

After he finished speaking, he looked at John. "Actually, my guess is that you don’t really want to work in the company as well. You are definitely also envious of people like me, aren't you? What's so good about sitting in the office every day? The amount of time you spend facing your employees and your business partners is more than the time you spend with your wife. Perhaps one day, they might become so lonely that they end up making sparks with another man. Who knows?" He didn’t even bother to filter his words.

John didn't react at all, but Sophia couldn't help giving a faint smile. "What you said seems to make sense."

"Right? I'm not just shooting off my mouth. I'm well informed about gossip, and I see a lot of such things."

Sophia hummed noncommittedly, for such cases were indeed common.

Sophia hummed noncommittedly, for such cases were indeed common.

It was as Logan said. Some people spent more time seeing others than their wife every day.

Relationships required cultivation, and time was the key, so it was easy to develop feelings with someone else as time passed.

Isabelle was clever as she used this point. Being the prized daughter of the Baileys born with a silver spoon, she still became a businesswoman. At this, one could see her determination on making John hers.

Thinking of this, Sophia's mood plummeted again.

Nearing the end of the meal, Logan was all talking all by himself.

He was different from Zack, for Zack could realize when something went wrong with the atmosphere and would shut up accordingly. But Logan didn't stop talking, regardless of other people's behavior.

This was fine too, lest the atmosphere at the dining table became awkward.

They were all here to show support for Sophia, seeing that they had eaten everything she had made, including the soup.

Sophia was very satisfied. She felt that enduring the aching wound on her leg as she cooked was worth it.

After the meal, Sophia went to get some fruit. They all sat down and chatted while eating fruit.
