Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 557

There had to be an ulterior motive as to why John would choose that particular bar.

Sophia snorted coldly. “Just be careful. As for him, whatever happens to him is his own business.”

Logan completely bypassed Sophia’s disdain for John, hearing only the concern Sophia had for himself. Thus, he answered happily, “Of course. I’ll take care of myself and not do anything improper. Don’t worry.”

After finishing dinner, it was almost time for Logan to meet up with John. Therefore, he left Sophia and drove directly to the bar.

Sophia washed the dishes, then watched TV for a while before going upstairs to take a shower. Nowadays, her life was simple but fulfilling, which was something she had always wanted before.

After taking a good long bath in the bathtub, Sophia came out to see her phone vibrating continuously from an incoming call. Glancing at it, she realized it was from John. I suppose there’s nothing important for him to tell me at this hour. I’m not gonna pick up.

While she was taking her bath, John had given her a dozen calls, but he still hadn’t given up and was still energetically calling her again after the line automatically disconnected.

Sophia muted her phone and threw it aside.

Now that she thought about that other time when John and Isabelle were together, John had drunk too much and called herself too. He must’ve put on an act then. Most probably, he deliberately led me over there so that he could stay the night here. He said that he was targeting me all along. Perhaps he was being honest, and everything had gone according to his plan.

This man was a scheming fox, so she didn't really believe that he could really lower his guard and get drunk around Isabelle.

After Sophia was done tidying up, she went to her bed and lay down.

She left her phone on the bedside cabinet before quickly falling asleep, not caring whether John was still calling her. Her sleep was great these days. After a busy day, she could fall asleep easily at night when her head hit the pillow.

On the other side, inside the bar, Logan’s mind was no longer clear. He leaned against the sofa, all the while staring at John, whose figure was multiplying by the minute, and murmured, “I think it’s a good thing if Sophia and Ian get together. Considering Ian's temperament, he won’t be bullied anymore with Sophia by his side. Those people from the Morgan Family won’t dare to bully Ian in the future. That’s not bad.”

His speech was rather slurred right now, but John still heard each word clearly. The latter’s face was reddish, but his eyes were still clear. He took the phone and called Sophia over and over again, but the woman didn't answer any of his calls.

John's gaze shifted from the phone to Logan, who was sitting on the opposite side. “Are they a good fit for each other? I don’t think so,” he sneered.

Logan tutted a little. “You’re just not observant. It’s true that they’re a good match for each other. They look good and complement each other’s character. Besides, they know each other very well. They’re a perfect match.”

John’s face sank as he withdrew his gaze, not intending to entertain Logan anymore.

At this point, Logan was already very dizzy. He raised his hand and gestured at the man opposite him. “John, tell me, why did you get divorced in the first place? I don't understand it. Sophia is such a good girl, yet you didn’t cherish her at all.”

Why did I get divorced in the first place? John had wondered about this too.

However, when he recalled his less-than-two-years-long marriage, he felt that under such circumstances, divorce was inevitable. After all, Sophia did not give him a good impression in that marriage. Although he knew that it was all because of the Constance Family that she had become so dutiful and restrained, he really didn't like her like that.

All his interest and feelings for Sophia had only manifested after the divorce, when he was finally exposed to her real character and temperament.
