Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 594

How nice! It’s only when one is ignorant can one be fearless. John was already gratified at the turn of events so far. Hence, he spun on his heels and headed back to his car. Meanwhile, shouts continued ringing out, the situation extremely chaotic. With so many witnesses, Sally Morgan is truly in hot water this time!

After slipping back into his car, he reclined in his seat and gazed at the cars before him. Shortly after that, the cars ahead of him started moving slowly, so he followed suit. When he drove past the spot where the accident transpired, he could see that the injured party had already been carried to the roadside to await the arrival of the ambulance, while Sally had also been restrained.

When the traffic police arrived, there were only two of them, and one of them had to direct the traffic. The remaining officer couldn’t subdue Sally at all since she made a scene and kept everyone away from her. It was so bad that some people just couldn’t sit on their hands. Parking their cars by the road, they went over and twisted her arm while pinning her down against the divider at the side. No matter how aggressive she was, she was still a woman at the end of the day, so she couldn’t break free when restrained. Hence, she resorted to cussing them out. Upon seeing that she was acting out, the person who was pinning her down gave her no quarter by holding her head down with his other hand and contorting her entire body into a pretzel. At this, she finally zipped her mouth.

Chuckling, John wound up his car window and drove off to the office. It was busy at the office, and Zack wasn’t yet aware that John had already returned. John spotted Zack heading to his office with a document in hand when he stepped out of the elevator, so he called out to him at once, startling him. “You’re back? Didn’t you say you’d only be back in a few days?”

Nodding, John went into his office, followed by Zack. “What happened? Did it go badly? And you came back alone?”

John grunted in affirmation. “I came back alone. Anyway, it went well, and it wasn’t a difficult collaboration in the first place.” There were some documents that had been processed on his desk, pending his approval. Striding over, he briefly flipped through them before shifting his gaze to Zack. “How was the past few days? Was it hectic?”

Zack shook his head. “Nope, it was rather idle. I noticed that the other managers didn’t really go out to entertain clients either.”

John nodded. “Alright, then. I brought some documents back, so have a look at these first. I’ve done a screening of the basic data for the collaboration this time. Just look them over and integrate everything.”

Taking the documents from him, Zack then studied him, his expression slightly different now. Lowering his voice, he asked, “You came back early by yourself?” When John said nothing, he could somehow guess his thoughts. “Was it because of Sophia?”

This time, John didn’t pull a long face. He merely stared at Zack nonchalantly, so Zack continued, “Actually, I went over to Sophia’s shop for a look while you were gone on your business trip during the past few days. There’s nothing unusual. She’s really on her best behavior these days.”

A few seconds later, John answered, “I know.”

Zack pondered for a moment before sighing. “Sophia is actually quite an insecure lady. I think she sometimes acts differently than how she truly feels. Well, women always love saying the opposite of what they mean. Therefore, you shouldn’t take it to heart even if she treats you contemptuously.”

The corners of John’s mouth twitched. “You speak as though you’re an expert.”

At this, chagrin flooded Zack. “I’m really an expert. I’ve spent an inordinate amount of time with women recently, so I’ve figured them out. Everything I said is true. You’ve got to believe me.”

John waved a dismissive hand. “Alright, go and get busy. I know what to do about my own affairs. Look how anxious you are.”
