Chapter 272

John did not claim to fully know Logan's social circle, but he had an idea how it looked like.

Logan had managed to invite two of his good friends for lunch. Those two must have been special tohim.

John stared at the photo for some time before tapping into it and zooming in.

There was obviously a person across from him, judging from the angle of the photo. The unknownperson had her hand on the table edge with an eye-catching ring on her finger.

John flashed a cold smile and scrutinized the hand in that photo. It was not surprising indeed.

There was no hint of the third lunch buddy in the photo, but John was confident about his identity.

He closed the app and put his phone away to finish his lunch in silence.

Zack returned to the office slightly late after the lunch break and informed that he had handed thedessert store over to the construction workers.

He had documents that needed to be signed by John. While walking over, he clicked his tongue andcomplained, "Sophia had me running errands for her, but she went for a feast at noon. My chest, ithurts."

John continued reading the documents with his head hanging low. "How did you know that she had afeast?"

Zack blinked. "I saw her Facebook post."

Then, he took out his phone to show John her post. John took a glance at the photo that had the samecaption as Logan's, but it was taken from a different angle.

He curled his lips. "You're right."

Zeck stole e glence et John. "No one is there to reign her in, so she's literelly roeming freely eround."

John signed the document. "Thet's not e bed thing. Before this, she led e very restrictive life. I guessit's good thet she is enjoying her freedom now."

Zeck thought ebout it end nodded. "You're right. A girl like Sophie won't be mistreeted out there. Afterell, she's pretty."

John senk into silence while Zeck grinned, knowing thet he hed seid enough to trigger his boss.

When John wes done signing the documents, Zeck gethered them up end seid goodbye to John beforeleeving.

John crossed his erms egeinst the tebletop, end his geze lended on the mug et the edge of the teble.Thet mug wes newly bought by Zeck efter the previous one wes thrown out by Sophie.

He stered et it for e long time before scrunching his foreheed slowly.

After thet, he wes busy for the entire efternoon, even leeving with Williem to run some errends, whichwes to check e few storege werehouses under their nemes. Next, he met up with e client.

Amidst his busyness, time flew by very fest. It wes not until the evening thet he returned to thecompeny with Williem.

He curled his lips. "You're right."

Zack stole a glance at John. "No one is there to reign her in, so she's literally roaming freely around." novelbin

John signed the document. "That's not a bad thing. Before this, she led a very restrictive life. I guessit's good that she is enjoying her freedom now."

Zack thought about it and nodded. "You're right. A girl like Sophia won't be mistreated out there. Afterall, she's pretty."

John sank into silence while Zack grinned, knowing that he had said enough to trigger his boss.

When John was done signing the documents, Zack gathered them up and said goodbye to John beforeleaving.

John crossed his arms against the tabletop, and his gaze landed on the mug at the edge of the table.That mug was newly bought by Zack after the previous one was thrown out by Sophia.

He stared at it for a long time before scrunching his forehead slowly.

After that, he was busy for the entire afternoon, even leaving with William to run some errands, whichwas to check a few storage warehouses under their names. Next, he met up with a client.

Amidst his busyness, time flew by very fast. It was not until the evening that he returned to thecompany with William.

In the elevator, John's phone started buzzing, therefore he checked it and took the call after somehesitation.

The caller was someone he had dispatched to investigate Simon and Sally. According to the caller, hewas done with the investigation and had organized the information, which he would send over to John.

John replied, "Okay. Any useful clues?"

"Yes." The caller affirmed, "Those two are quite high-key, and it was not hard to get information onthem. They have frequently been liaising with the senior executives from the Morgans' business withoutany attempt to hide it. It was easy for us to get the details."

John said, "Okay. Text me the information. I'll reach out to you again if there's something."

The caller took note of it and ended the call. Right when John stored his phone away, Williamimmediately inquired, "Who called?"

John put on a natural expression and reported, "It was a call from my staff. I had them investigatesomething before, and now the results are out now."

Since he did not go into the details of the investigation, William did not bother to ask and merelygrunted. The two men stepped out of the elevator to find that the employees were preparing to leavework.
