Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 365


The driver was a touch reluctant. “I don’t dare go against Mr. Constance’s orders.” John was usually taciturn and rather aloof in nature, so people around him generally had a healthy fear of him. He was the kind of person who rarely spoke unnecessarily, and his decisions were final without needing anyone to help him change his mind.

After staring at John for a while, Sophia sighed. “Never mind, then. You’re not in my territory anyway, so just stay if you’d like to.” After saying that, she then sashayed away.

When she’d left, John, who was in the car, slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were slightly red, but they still appeared lucid.

Meanwhile, the driver then climbed back into the car after some time. However, he didn’t glance over his shoulder at John, merely taking out his cell phone and surfing the Internet for gossip.

At first, John stared at the back of the front seat. Then, he slowly turned his head and gazed in the direction of Sophia’s house. The door to Sophia’s house was opened, but he couldn’t make out who was inside since it was quite a distance away. A car was parked in her courtyard, but the fence blocked its view, so he couldn’t see it clearly either. It’s probably Ian. At this, he heaved a sigh.

Nonetheless, John didn’t stay long. When Sophia went back to the window after going through her driving test questions, his car was already gone. He has probably left.

After standing by the window for a long while, she took out her cell phone, only to see that John’s friend request was still there. Actually, it’s really pointless for him to do this. If he keeps pestering me, we’ll only be going around in circles. In the end, she didn’t accept it. As before, she exited the application and pretended as though she hadn’t seen it.

Meanwhile, Logan was having loads of fun alone downstairs. He’d put on music loudly, singing and dancing by himself.

Her patience quickly coming to an end, Sophia went out of her room and stood on the second-floor landing. “Can you please lower the volume? You’re so d*mn noisy!”

Still bopping downstairs, Logan looked up at her. “Come down and dance with me!”

Sophia merely stared at him without saying a single word. Grinning, Logan then added, “Lorraine just phoned me earlier, asking me to go home for dinner. I told her that I’m at your place, and she invited you to my place.”

Stunned, Sophia’s first reaction was to decline the invitation. However, when the words were just at the tip of her tongue, she suddenly felt that it seemed rather rude to refuse. Thus, she pursed her lips. “I’m recently embroiled in a scandal, so I’ll take a rain check. After all, I don’t want to drag you all into this mess.”

“Am I the type of person who’s afraid of a scandal? I’ve got even more scandals than you. Besides, you’ve got a positive image in this scandal. Look at mine. I’m about to become the face of a crime crackdown!” Despite Logan’s words, the pride on his face was evident.

Sophia couldn’t figure out why he was being so optimistic. Is the undisguised joy written all over his face real when he’s bringing up such negative press?

Logan lifted his eyes to look at her. “Seriously, just come over to my house. I’ll call Ian as well. The two of you are my only friends, so I want to bring you both home for a visit.” Surprisingly, his eyes seemed to be shining like stars.

After staring at him for forever and a day, Sophia nodded. “Okay.” I think I should go and thank Lorraine in person.

Upon hearing her acquiescence, Logan’s bopping abruptly stilled. Eagerly sprinting over to the sofa, he leaped over with a hand propped on the back of the sofa. Then, he snatched up his cell phone on it. “I’ll give Ian a call, and we’ll set out for my house when he arrives. Well, honestly speaking, I’ve never brought any friends home!”

Sophia laughed silently at his antics. Why is this Young Master Jefferson acting so much like a young pupil?
