Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 434


Logan knew Sophia must be annoyed by how Isabelle was holding onto her arm. Due to his straightforward nature, he went up to her in strides before helping Sophia up with a sullen expression. “I'm warning you to watch what you say, as Sophia is a dear friend of mine. Don't even think for a second that you can walk all over her. If you are going to report this, you'd better think before you put it into words, or else my sister—”

Perhaps Logan was a little ashamed of bringing Lorraine's name up, so he cleared his throat before continuing, “If I catch you spouting any nonsense, I will make sure that you will be met with consequences.”

The three men stared at Logan in silence, as they knew how barbaric he could get once provoked. Also, he was one who wouldn’t care about familial ties and responsibilities. In fact, they perceived Logan with slight disdain. Instead of acting the part of an heir to the Jeffersons who would be capable of shouldering the responsibilities of the family, Logan turned out to be notorious for his vile disposition.

Despite having stared at Logan for some time, they had nothing to ask of Logan, so they turned to John instead for their next interview. “Mr. John Constance, according to previous accounts, your divorce with Miss Gwendolyn was due to an interference from Miss Isabelle Bailey, but does the fact that you are still capable of maintaining a certain degree of civility while conversing with each other mean what happened back then was...”

“What happened back then?” John retorted immediately. “You fabricated the news on your own. Nothing happened between us.”

The journalist seemed unfazed by John's retort, as he merely let out a chuckle before proceeding with another question. “Pardon me, but I would like to know if your divorce with Miss Gwendolyn had anything to do with a conflict between you two, or was it due to external circumstances?” He seemed intent on getting to the bottom of the situation, which explained his repetitive question.

“What happened between Sophia and I was my fault, as I was the one who neglected her.” With a tilt of his head, John brooded for a while before answering, “I failed to maintain balance between my work and home life.”

What he said explained a lot of things. Meanwhile, Logan was getting impatient. “Are you done with your questions? Aren't you bored by your repetitive news reports on such an inconsequential matter? Hear me out just this once. Instead of focusing on this, you should do something different to attract more attention. Isn’t there a new talent show on TV? You should check it out, as I think it will soon gain a lot of traction. If you follow up on it, you should be able to uncover some new talents.”

Sophia could hardly contain her laughter. Contrary to popular opinion, Logan was quite smart, for he was able to change the topic so smoothly. In the meantime, John waved his hand at the waiter, who quickly caught on to what he meant as he came to usher the journalists to cover more on Kate’s birthday party. After smiling at them, the journalists packed up to leave.

After removing Logan’s hand from her shoulder, Sophia turned to meet his gaze. “You sure are a smooth talker! You should work as Ian’s manager! Listen to yourself; that’s so cool of you!”

“Really?” Logan was quite happy about it. “How did I sound just now?”

“You were great indeed!” After praising Logan, Sophia turned to look at Isabelle who was still sitting beside her. That look forced Isabelle to move back to her original position, the smile earlier long gone from her face.

After tidying her gown, Sophia sat back down, while Logan turned to look at Isabelle before saying in a rather odd fashion, “You sure can put up a good act, Miss Bailey.”
