Female Novel
Chapter 559
Fabian smiled at her, but it was a very superficial smile. “Grandma told me to come and visit you. I’vedone as told.”
Sophia looked at him indifferently and said, “You don’t really have to come over. Just simply tell her thatyou’ve visited me next time. If Old Mrs. Blackwell asks me, I’ll cover for you.”
Fabian was a little surprised as he looked at Sophia and commented, “That address sounds prettygood. I like it better.” He was talking about how Sophia addressed the matriarch of the BlackwellFamily; she had addressed her as ‘Old Mrs. Blackwell’ instead of brazenly calling her ‘Grandma’.
Sophia had nothing to say to Fabian, so she replied, “Now that you’ve seen me, you can go.”
This time, Fabian gave her a genuine smile and said, “Sophia Gwendolyn, right? Okay, I’ll rememberyou.”
Sophia stood up straight and continued her own stretching exercise without speaking to him anyfurther. Raising the window, Fabian waited for a short while before driving away.
Sophia waited for his car to disappear out of sight before sighing. Why did I provoke the BlackwellFamily? If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have followed Logan that day. Logan is to blamefor all this!
When Sophia entered the shop after a while, Robin was sitting in a chair and looking at her phone withan angry expression on her face. Taken aback, Sophia asked, “What are you doing? Why are youlooking like that?”
Robin hurriedly kept away her phone. “I saw some news and almost choked with anger.”
There was not much in the news these days. Besides, all the media did was follow trending topicsinstead of reporting important affairs. Most of the headlines nowadays were about celebrity drama andgossip. Boring, Sophia thought.
Sophia made two cups of hot cocoa, then sat across from Robin. “Don’t look at that kind of news. It’sso boring.”
Robin took over a cup of cocoa, sipped on it and said, “Yeah, it’s boring. It’s just a load of nonsense.”
Sophia didn't ask what Robin had been reading. The two of them just sat and looked outside thewindow.
Over at John’s side, he had naturally seen the news too, but there was no reaction from him.
Matilda also called and asked him if the news was true.
John grunted. “The photo is so clear. Obviously, it’s the truth.”
Matilda snorted in disapproval and said, “If you want to have fun, you shouldn’t go to that kind of place.Do you even know who frequents that place? Besides, how could you get yourself photographed by themedia? You’re not being careful enough.”
John didn’t want to talk about this. “It’s fine. There isn’t much chaos on the Internet anyway, so there’sno need to bother about it.”
Now that he wasn’t in a relationship, even if there was some pandemonium over the photo, it wouldn’treally affect his life. Most people would think that it was just a photo of a man and a woman and therewas no big deal about it.
Matilda knew that John wouldn’t like to hear anything more about it from her, so she just gave up afterthinking about it.
For the rest of the day, John busied himself at the company. It was only when he got off work at nightdid he have time to check his phone. He first checked Sophia’s social media account, but she hadn’tposted anything. She’s probably been very busy recently, so she hasn't posted for many days.
John sighed, not knowing what he himself was expecting.
Everyone in the company had left at this time. John slowly packed his briefcase and went downstairs.As he got into the car, he pulled off his tie and threw it on the seat next to him. He suddenly felt aninexplicable irritation. After sitting in the car for a while, he started the car and headed toward Sophia'sshop. novelbin
From the opened door, John could clearly see Logan inside the shop, laughing and joking with Sophia.Sophia is really not affected at all, he thought. Then, he stepped on the accelerator and the car spedaway.
Logan was in Sophia's shop talking about what was going on at the clubhouse, including the fact thatthose from the Morgan Family were extremely infuriated when they saw Ian's contest video. Moreover,he also said that he had seen Sally on the previous day at the bar. Sally had told her friends how Ianhad brought shame to their family.
