Female Novel
Chapter 677
That time, John told the young man his own number, unbeknownst to the young man, and then he keptreceiving good morning and good night messages. Even when Sophia went back to her home, thisyoung man kept sending messages to her. John was surprised about the young man’s iron will. Eventhough he never replied to the young man’s messages, he never stopped texting.
John came up and wrapped his arm around Sophia’s shoulder. “We’re going for lunch. Anything?”
The young man froze up and stared at them for a while. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
Sophia knew what John was trying to do. If it were any other time, she would have slapped his handaway, but not this time. She didn’t want the young man to be kept in ignorance, so it’d be better for himto know about this sooner. Sophia leaned closer against John and repeated, “Do you need anything?”
The young man’s expression turned gloomy. “Y-You guys…”
Matilda was frustrated. What is wrong with these men? Even until then, she didn’t know what was soattractive about Sophia, so her son’s obsession went over her head.
I don’t think John likes her for her looks. He isn’t that shallow. When she noticed that someone else hada crush on Sophia as well, Matilda thought, Fine, John’s blind, but everyone else is too?
Robin chuckled silently and approached Matilda. “This guy kept coming over every day during Sophia’sabsence,” she whispered. “He really likes her.”
Matilda looked at the boy again. This boy looks like he just graduated high school. He’s just a kid! Doeshe even know what love and responsibility is? Does he even know how to care for a woman? Matilda
snorted. “So what? There’s no point coveting something that isn’t his,” she whispered back.
Robin froze. Even though she knew Matilda wasn’t talking about her, she still looked at John, who stillhad his hand around Sophia’s shoulder. A while ago, she too coveted someone who couldn’t belong toher, and she even thought there was a chance. Once upon a time, she even wanted to confess to thatman, just like how this young man was doing, but luckily, she stopped in time, or else she’d be in thesame situation as the young man was.
The young man looked at Sophia, the light in his eyes dim. “I see. I’m just here to say hi.” Then, hewent back to his shop.
When he was finally out of sight, Sophia turned to John. “Take your hand off me.” John arched hiseyebrow and removed his hand, for he knew he shouldn’t push his luck. Then, they went into John’scar, and he drove them to a restaurant in the city center.
There weren’t many customers given the time they came. John was still delighted over hearing thenews. Even though Sophia had known about it for a while, John only knew about it a day ago. Thus, hewanted to share this warm and fuzzy feeling he felt with everyone.
After going into their room, he called Logan. “Are you in the middle of something now?”
“I’m in a game session with the guys in my club. No money involved.”
When John heard that reply, he invited Logan over for lunch and said they were a group. Being a partylover, Logan dismissed the game session right away. “Be right there!” novelbin
