Female Novel
Chapter 538
The movements of Sophia's hands paused at John’s words. After staring at the ingredients on thecutting board for a long while, she finally said, “Let go of me.”
However, John was a little bolder on this day and refused to let go. “Sophia, I find that I'm really notused to you not being with me.”
Sophia pressed her lips together. “You’re just unaccustomed to not having someone around to serveyou. If you really want someone to accompany you, I think Isabelle is a good choice. You may try todate her. Perhaps you’ll find that she suits you better than I do.” novelbin
John let out a dull laugh before asking, “Really?”
Sophia twisted her body, flinging John 's hand around her waist away. “Of course. If you don't believe it,you can try it and see.”
John stood beside Sophia, watching her cut the vegetables. “I guess your proposal is worthconsidering.”
Sophia didn't speak any more and started busying in the kitchen. Then, John left and went out to sit onthe sofa. Facing the kitchen, his mouth twitched slightly. Isabelle? I guess I can consider her.
Soon, Sophia was done with cooking. She had made the meal into a very formal three-course dinner,making John smack his lips at the dinner table. “It looks great. Better than what the chef makes back atthe Constance Residence.”
Sophia served him the food and said, “Just leave after dinner.”
John didn't mind Sophia's attitude toward him and leaned back in his chair casually. None of themspoke throughout the dinner. When Sophia finished her food, John was still eating. She leaned back inher chair and looked at him.
It was quite normal for such a good-looking man to attract a lot of women. Thus, it was understandablefor Isabelle to be interested in him. However, Sophia felt that the other woman was a little obsessivewith John. It wasn’t as if there were no other fishes in the sea. Why is she still so interested in this manwho had been married and divorced? Sophia was a little confused by that.
Actually, she had wanted to ask Isabelle back in the shop whether she really loved John, or if she wasobsessed about him simply because she couldn’t win him over. But then, Isabelle was also a stubbornone who would probably say some nonsense like ‘true love conquers all’. Sophia sometimes feltdisdainful of Isabelle’s loftiness that she carried with her all the time.
We’re all mortals, so no one is better than another. No matter how amazing one was, one would stillneed to eat, drink and defecate every day, and when one died, only a handful of ashes would be left.
John had finished his dinner. Taking a paper towel to wipe his mouth, he nodded and said, “I still preferthe food you make.”
Sophia crossed her arms. “Even if you prefer it, I can’t make it for you all the time. I’m just in a goodmood today. If you’ve finished, leave now. I need my rest.”
John laughed. “You weren’t like this to me in the past.”
That made Sophia chuckle. “Well, you weren’t like this to me back then either.”
Staring at Sophia, John looked like he wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say it.Instead, he stood up and announced, “Okay, since I’ve finished eating, I’ll leave now.”
Sophia didn't believe him, so she personally escorted him to the door, then watched him go out and getinto the car. As John opened the car door, he looked back at Sophia. “I’ll definitely consider yoursuggestion.”
Before Sophia could react, John got into the car and closed the door. Watching the car leave, Sophiastood still in confusion. What suggestion?
She turned around and entered the house. Closing the door and windows, she then returned to herroom. It was only when she was brushing her teeth did she suddenly realize what John meant. Earlier,she had suggested to him that he could try to get together with Isabelle. This jerk! When he said hewould consider my suggestion, did he mean this?
