Female Novel
Chapter 1174
A faint sense of gratification manifested on Sophia’s face. “That’s good. Frankly speaking, I don’t quitefancy seeing her even though she did me a favor.” After saying that, she laughed maniacally again anddeclared self-deprecatingly, “I’ve always been such a dastardly person.”
Plopping down on the bed, John flipped over and hugged her tightly. “I love how you treat othersdastardly.” After he’d said that, he then asked, “Do you know that Ian’s show is over?”
“I know. I watched a bit of it,” Sophia replied. “But I then fell asleep without watching until the very end.”At this, she gave an embarrassed chuckle. I’m simply a fake fan. In the past, I boasted of my supportfor him, but I ended up failing to watch even a single show of his to the end.
John leaned over and pecked her on the corner of her mouth. “He’ll probably be returning in a fewdays. He has signed with a company, and his upcoming schedule is rather packed, so he’ll probablycome back before that to meet up with you guys.”
Sophia looked up at him. “How do you know all this?”
How do I know all this? John didn’t quite know how to answer her, because he’d also invested in theshow Lorraine invested in, making him one of the bankrollers behind the scenes. A bankroller had theabsolute right to dictate parameters, so it was convenient for him to play underhanded tricks behindclosed doors.
It was him who proposed the closed-door training and confiscation of cell phones, forbidding anycontact with the outside world. He even furtively pressured the crew to have them suggest that Ianrefrain from divulging too much of his love life on the show. Back then, he was extremely disgruntledthat Ian had confessed his love for Sophia twice on the show, so he cut off all communication between
them.
In the end, he didn’t tell Sophia the truth, merely saying that Lorraine told him about it. Since Sophiahad baby brain now, she didn’t really consider the veracity of his words.
They both cuddled in bed for a while before washing up and going downstairs to eat. Since Sophiaslept in, her afternoon nap wouldn’t be necessary on this day. When they were having a stroll in thegarden after lunch, Lola came to Sophia’s mind. Sophia then said that she wanted to visit Lola’s gymfor a look since she hadn’t been to her workplace all this while.
It so happened that John was planning to go to the office to hand off his work, so he was feelingworried that she’d be bored at home alone. Thus, he drove her to Lola’s gym.
As he hadn’t been there before either, the two of them searched for a parking space. Just after they’dparked the car, Sophia pointed at a car nearby and exclaimed, “Look! Isn’t that Logan’s car?” novelbin
Alighting from the car, John casted a glance in that direction, only to instantly recognize that it wasindeed Logan’s car. Makes sense. He has nothing much to do, and he’s now pursuing Lola, so he’lldefinitely follow her around like a puppy. At that thought, he laughed. “Logan will certainly be chagrinedwhen he sees us.”
Sophia nodded. “That’s for sure.”
Nevertheless, it didn’t bother them, and they both headed to Lola’s gym hand in hand. Although it wasafternoon, there were still some people in the gym. There weren’t many people, but it wasn’tparticularly deserted.
Sophia went in and peered around, but she didn’t see Lola. Thus, John went over to a coach andinquired about Lola’s whereabouts. The coach then lifted a hand and pointed in a direction. “There’s anoffice there when you take a right turn.”
