Female Novel
Chapter 552
To Sophia’s surprise, Ian called her not long after the message was sent, so she hurriedly picked it up.
With a smile, Ian called out, “Sophia.”
After a pause, Sophia replied, “I thought you were taking a rest.”
“Not yet. I was just talking to Lorraine about the next round of the show.”
The conversation should have gone really well, as Ian’s voice sounded delightful, which disruptedSophia’s readiness to ask her question. Now, she didn’t think she could ask him about it in a seriousmanner.
After a grunt, she said, “I watched the show. Your performance was excellent.”
Having watched the television show as well, Ian replied, “I performed normally. But honestly, I wasterrified that I would be out of tune.”
Sophia licked her lips. “But on the show, you…”
Knowing what she wanted to say, Ian giggled and said, “You want to ask about what I said on the show,right?”
Sophia gave a guttural grunt.
Ian let out a sigh. “During the training, the program director told us that each contestant would find apartner and sing together. To make it interesting for the audience, we were asked to be really close to
the partner to spice up the show. When Lorraine told me about it, I didn’t like the idea. So, I decided totell the audience that I have a girlfriend so that I won’t be bogged down by gossip in the future. I hopethat my singing skills will speak for myself.”
Sophia didn’t really understand all this, but she knew that it was the norm these days to create somegossip for the contestants. Slightly relieved, she mumbled, “I see.”
Ian chuckled. “Don’t feel pressured. It’s no big deal.”
Upon pondering on it for a moment, Sophia concluded that she was just an ordinary citizen, so itshouldn’t affect her much. She then changed the topic by asking about what was ahead of him.
After giving it a thought, Ian replied, “Well, I’ll stay here for the training for the time being. When it’s myturn to perform, I’ll go over. It goes on like this until the winner is announced.” novelbin
That is going to take a long time. Without anything else to say, Sophia told him that he had her support.
Ian mumbled, “I miss you. I really hope that this show will end soon so that I can meet you.”
Since Ian had other matters to attend to, he told Sophia to take care and hung up the call.
After the conversation, Sophia’s mind was set at ease. Putting down the phone, she covered herselfwith the quilt, let out a sigh, and closed her eyes.
For the following days, Sophia and John fell into a cold war and never contacted each other.
Sophia didn’t know what situation John was in, but she had been swamped every day, so it was a
blessing for her that he never came to bother her. With her life full of challenges and meaning, shestopped caring whether John was angry with her.
Come to think of it, it has nothing to do with me whether he’s angry or not.
A few days later, even Robin could sense that something was off, so she asked Sophia, “Mr.Constance hasn’t come here for a few days. Did you fall out with him or something?”
Sophia giggled. “No? It’s normal that he doesn’t come here again. Since we’re divorced, he shouldn’tcome here in the first place.”
Upon staring at Sophia for a while, Robin pursed her lips and gulped down her question.
Meanwhile, John had been hard-pressed for the past few days. Other than work, he was alsoinvestigating Robin’s kidnap case. Although there was no indication that the target of the kidnap wasSophia, something was amiss that Robin was taken away and then abandoned.
He had a feeling that the criminals were going after Sophia.
