Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 328

William massaged his brows before taking a seat. “Yes, I’ve been thinking about that too but I really don’t feel like talking to your muddle-headed mother.”

John walked over and sat down in the chair opposite to him. “What should we do next then?”

William sighed, “I’ll give a call to the Baileys soon to see what they think about the matter.”

That was the only thing they could do at the moment.

On the other hand, Sophia went to bed early that night. Perhaps because she was psychologically strong enough, she actually managed to have a deep slumber all the way until the next morning.

She woke up in a state of confusion because even she herself found it hard to believe that she had actually slept through the night.

Indeed, she was getting increasingly resilient and tough.

After washing up, she headed downstairs and found no sight of John’s car in the courtyard. From the looks of it, it seemed like he had spent the entire night outside.

She went on to reheat the dumplings, which was the leftover from last night, and enjoyed it while scrolling news on her phone.

Seeing that the news about her divorce with John had yet to be exposed on the internet, she supposed Third Young Lady Jefferson had done something to stop it from leaking to the media.

No matter what, Sophia thought she should express her gratitude to the Jeffersons for the huge favor they had done her.

After finishing the dumplings, she gave Logan a call.

Just seconds after she dialed his number, she saw John’s car pulling up in the courtyard.

While she was busy staring at his car, her call to Logan was put through.

Smiling, she asked casually, “Hey, Logan, are you up?”

Smiling, she asked casually, “Hey, Logan, are you up?”

Logan was still snuggling in his bed but he chose to fib. “I woke up way earlier than this; it’s too late to still be in bed.”

Sophia chuckled at his answer because she could sense that he was talking in the typical raspy voice one would have just seconds after one woke up.

Noticing that John was getting out of his car, she decided to bring the call upstairs.

While she was walking, she said to Logan, “I want to thank you and your family for what happened yesterday. If it wasn’t for you guys who managed to stop the media from spreading the rumor, I would have already been all over the tabloids.”

Logan sighed at the mention of the fiasco. “Sophia, to be honest, we may be able to stop it this time, but if the pictures reach too many media companies, we won’t have the means to control it anymore because you can’t stop them from poking their noses in eye-catching topics that can bring them views and clicks. So, I think you’d better clarify things by posting your marriage certificate with John on the internet because the longer you allow the rumor to spread, anything fake will slowly be deemed as the truth.”

Sophia nearly burst out laughing when she heard him. Her marriage certificate?

The marriage certificate had long been confiscated and at the moment, a divorce certificate was the only thing she could manage to offer.

Sophia stuttered to avoid answering him directly, “Logan, I-I’ll explain the details to you when I’ve got the time. Right now, I’m handling a mess of my own here and when I’m done with it, I’ll tell you everything.”

She planned to tell him about her divorce with John.

Since Ian already knew about the divorce, she reckoned the public would soon be made aware of it too judging from how things were going.

Hence, she saw no point in hiding her divorce from Logan.

It was only after a short silence did Logan accept her arrangement.

For a split second, Sophia had the feeling that Logan might have already guessed what she wanted to tell him.

After ending the call with him, Sophia returned to her room. She wanted to take a shower because she was all sweaty after fixing up the meal in the kitchen.

Just after she took out a set of fresh garments from her wardrobe which she was going to change in later, John pushed the door to her room open.

Staring at Sophia, he spoke in a deep voice, “Let’s talk.”

Carrying the clothes in her arms, Sophia first gazed at his face for some time before nodding at him. “Fine then.”

She left the clothes behind and walked out of the room. “Let’s go downstairs.”

They took the stairs to the living room and sat down face-to-face on the sofa.

Sophia initiated the conversation by asking, “Did you guys come up with any brilliant idea after spending the entire night at Constance Residence discussing it?”

Leaning against the sofa, John suggested, “Let’s remarry each other.”

“Say what?” Sophia was so shocked that she nearly jumped out of her seat. “Are you crazy?”
