Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 232

Sophia wore a frown as she questioned, “Why are you dining with us?”

Zack was visibly confused by her question. “Do you mean I should watch you eat after all the pain I went through to bring you food? Of course I’m going to dine with you two!”

Upon turning to meet Zack, John said, “I noticed you seem to be less afraid of me.”

Zack let out a giggle. “I noticed that I always feel more balanced while in her presence. Boss, didn’t you notice that your temper gets better whenever she’s around?” He said that while glancing at Sophia.

A frown formed on John’s face as he stared at Zack for a while. “No, I don’t think so.”

With his bowl in hand, Zack began eating without a care in the world. “It’s true! I don’t lie! Even your expressions look different when she’s with you!”

John let out a sneer while he retorted, “You’d better find time to go to an ophthalmologist.”

While lowering his voice, Zack told Sophia, “I nailed it. It’s just that he never admits that I’m right.”

She could feel something was tugging at her heartstrings when she glanced at John. Memories of his gentleness and patience toward her earlier this day made her heart flutter, which was probably because he rarely did so. Such a rare show of his compassion was enough to make her heart beat for him again. After letting out a sigh, Sophia dug into her meal.

Neither her nor John were in a good mood, so none of them spoke when they ate. While Zack tried to strike up a conversation, the fact that nobody would respond to him was a little underwhelming. They keep on doing this... It feels like the Cold War all again, and it’s frustrating. They’re both grown ups, so why are they acting so childishly? Zack thought to himself.

They finished their meal in silence, after which Sophia had Zack help her up instead of letting John carry her. She sent him off as soon as they arrived at her room, but he turned to look at her while standing by the door, then he said in a lowered voice, “Sophia, I can see that you love Boss.”

Sophia froze on the spot as she wasn’t sure what his intentions were. After some thought, Zack continued, “Although you two are divorced, it doesn’t mean that you’ve lost your chance. You still live within close proximity of him, so it’s not impossible for your ex-husband to fall in love with you once again if you put in the effort.”

Sophia stared at him as if she was staring at a lunatic. “Are you drunk?”
