Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 577

Sophia nodded. This woman is indeed alluring with her ample bosom and firm butt, complemented by her exquisite makeup. At a single glance, one can be certain that all men will love her. I don’t believe John remained unmoved when confronted with such a woman! She looked through the news before recalling the fact that John sneaked into her house today, claiming that he’d be away on a business trip and warning her to behave. Putting aside everything else, am I not on my best behavior? I merely go to the shop and back home every day. There’s no one else with a better track record than I do! As she contemplated it, she grew increasingly vexed and peeved, intense fury choking her.

All at once, she sat up and gave John a call after a moment’s deliberation. John, however, was taking a shower, so he didn’t hear his phone ringing. When the call went unanswered, Sophia cursed at her cell phone for a while before she put it down and went to bed. She’d always felt that she had a calm temperament, but she couldn’t quite restrain herself when it came to John. Closing her eyes, she heaved a sigh.

Meanwhile, when John came out after his shower, he naturally noticed Sophia’s missed call. In fact, he had an idea why she called. That girl was hopping mad at me earlier. She probably feels chagrined for having lost face, so she wants to reclaim her pride. He guffawed, finding it rather intriguing. She’s been growing increasingly interesting after the divorce. He then stared at his cell phone for some time before putting it down.

He was going on a business trip with William tomorrow, so he took out a suitcase and simply packed two sets of clothing. He never brought a lot every time he went on a business trip, and it was usually Zack who helped him pack. This time, however, Zack wasn’t tagging along, so he had no choice but to pack by himself.

While he was packing his luggage, he recalled Sophia having followed him to Tri Asel back then. She didn’t bring much either, saying that she was merely treating it as a vacation. As far as I know, she’s never been away from home alone. All her life, the farthest she has gone was from the little mountain village in her hometown to my life. She isn’t one who loves seeking excitement, so she must have mustered tremendous courage to leave with all her belongings back then.

At this, a wave of distress swept over him. I was so determined to have a divorce that I forgot to consider the aftermath of it to her. I generously gave her money back then, thinking that it’ll compensate for everything, but now, it seems that I’ve given it too little thought. After he was done packing, he went back to his bed and lay down, feeling a tad unsettled.

John left with William the next day, and Sophia instantly received news of it since Zack posted it on Facebook, saying that his boss had gone away to toil. He made a whole issue of how difficult a task it was and insinuated that he was truly reluctant to part with his boss which Sophia scanned through. He didn’t lie at least. He has indeed gone on a business trip. She then put her cell phone down, but she couldn’t help recalling John’s remarks yesterday, growing aggrieved once again.

...

When Robin was done cleaning the shop, she leaned against the counter, looking at ease. She turned her gaze on Sophia. “Haven't you been in contact with Second Young Master Morgan recently?”

Sophia, on the other hand, had her head lowered as she tidied the place. “Nope.”

At this, Robin sighed. “Doesn’t it feel agonizing when two people who are dating only see each other once in a blue moon?”

Sophia’s brows furrowed. “My relationship with Ian isn’t as presumed.”

Robin, however, hooted in laughter. “No? Love remains the same at its core despite all apparent changes.” She then turned to face Sophia. “Is it sweet to be in love? When you think of that person, you feel happy and blissful.” Cupping her face with both hands, she added, “And when you don’t see him, you just feel restless.”
