Female Novel
Chapter 571
John’s expression became severe. “Shift your focus on work instead of browsing gossip. You wouldn’tbe making so many mistakes if you’d just be a bit more serious.” All at once, Zack realized that he’dmisspoken, thus pursed his lips and said nothing. Opening the file, John scanned through the report.Then, he slammed it close and threw it aside with a plop. “Alright, leave this here first. It’s nothingurgent, so I’ll take a look at it when I’m free.”
Zack was tickled pink. He’s wholly different now, looking so unsettled. In fact, I know why without himhaving to point it out. Thus, he didn’t immediately leave. “Actually, Boss, I don’t think you need to be soconflicted. You just need to figure out some things and put them into action. Well, your anxiousnessevery day hasn’t done you any good, has it?”
John frowned, impatience etched on his face as he stared at Zack. However, before he could sayanything, Zack blurted, “You must figure out whether you still have feelings for Sophia and wish to bewith her. If the answer is no, then your anxiousness is just a result of resentment since you find itincredulous that some other men are pursuing her after she’d left you. That’s about it. In that case,you’ll be fine when enough time has gone by.”
John closed his mouth, all the words he’d wanted to say to refute Zack earlier vanishing into thin air.Zack, on the other hand, continued, “However, if you think you have feelings for her and wish to be withher, then it’s even easier. Pursue her if you do like her, and put in more effort if you want to be with her.I don’t believe that your marriage for almost a year will lose to Second Young Master Morgan’sappearance for a mere handful of months. In my opinion, your chances of winning are considerable.”
John stared at him for a long while before harrumphing. “You talk as though you’re an expert, yet you’realso a dummy in love.”
At this, Zack tsked. “Don’t underestimate me. I’ve been going on dates recently, so I’ve gained anunderstanding of the female mind. Frankly speaking, Boss, regardless of a girl’s personality, all femaleslike aggressive men. Opportunity only comes when one is aggressive.” After saying this, he arched aneyebrow at John. “Do you understand me?”
John froze for a few seconds before he immediately put on an impatient expression again. “Alright,alright, that’s enough nonsense. You’re dismissed. It’ll be best if you focus more on work.”
Knowing that he’d actually taken his words to heart, Zack nodded. “Okay, then. You think on it. I’mgoing back to work.”
When he’d left, John slowly fell into a trance. Females like aggressive men, huh? But haven’t I beenaggressive? I’ve been very aggressive. I’ve never been this forward with a woman, still coming on toher despite having been contradicted to my face time and again. Sometimes, I even find myselfdespicable. However, he also knew that the relationship between the two of them would likely besevered if he wasn’t aggressive considering Sophia’s temperament. Now that the situation is at animpasse, I’m just not sure what I should do to break the deadlock.
Meanwhile, Sophia hurried downstairs for a look after a moment’s contemplation when she awakened.Fabian was still on the sofa, sprawled out on his back. Heaving a sigh, Sophia then boiled water tocook chicken soup. He’ll probably be up soon.
Just when she was done, Fabian woke up groggily. A tad dazed, he sat up and looked around beforefixing his gaze on Sophia. “You got me here?” novelbin
Sophia took a bowl of chicken soup over to him. “Have you forgotten about your call to me?”
Fabian indeed remembered nothing of the sort, his mind a chaotic mess right now. Taking the chickensoup from her, he tested the temperature before finishing it at one go.
