Next One Is a Babe

But truth be told, the only ones who were having a conversation were Sophia and Logan.

Sophia was talking about how she was going to open her new store soon.

Logan seemed keen hearing that and promised he would visit once the store was open. He would get all the desserts his club needed from Sophia’s new store.

Sophia had such a huge grin that her eyes were crescent slits. She raised her hands and put them around Logan’s shoulders. “You’re the best, Logan.”

John’s brows furrowed, but when he realized this was Logan they were talking about, he didn’t say anything.

After both Logan and Sophia had a good laugh, they talked about some future plans for Sophia’s new store.

John took up his laptop on the side, and Ian just sat there listening to Sophia and Logan’s conversation.

Ian didn’t interject but just listened.

His gaze fell upon Sophia’s finger. The ring seemed quite normal when it sat in the display cabinet at the store.

But now that it was on Sophia’s fingers, it looked much better.

Ian’s expression grew gentle, and his gaze on Sophia continued for quite a while.

Sophia and Logan were still very much absorbed in their conversation and did not realize this. But John had kept an eye on all three of them through the corner of his eye.

He withdrew his gaze and said, “Sophia, look at this drawing and tell me what you think. Would you like it if we used this as the interior design for the store?”

Sophia stopped for a moment. When she heard they were designs for her store, she immediately hopped over to John. “Let me see, let me see.”

John was still holding the laptop, but he shifted his body slightly.

Sophia normally didn’t have a lot of boundaries, so she just leaned onto John. When she did, he could smell the faint rose scent on her body.

John’s lips twitched when he saw the serious look on Sophia’s face as she stared at the laptop. On the laptop was the interior layout design drawings for Sophia's store. This was only the preliminary drawings, and there would be more three-dimensional drawings at a later stage.

Sophia didn’t understand a thing about interior design. After staring for some time, she just nodded and said, “It’s quite good.”

John slightly shifted his body again and got closer to Sophia. “What about this? Do you think it’s good?”

Sophia nodded. “Yes, I think it looks quite good. It’s made full use of the space available.”

Logan, who was at the side, pulled a face. He inhaled and stood up. “That's our cue to leave again. If you wanted us to leave, you could have just said so. You're already an adult, but you're still playing such games. Oh well.”

He gestured toward Ian. “Let’s go. If they can’t hold it in any longer, things will get steamy in here. I don’t want to blind my eyes just yet.”

Sophia raised her head and was slightly lost. “Huh? What?”

Sophia raised her head and was slightly lost. “Huh? What?”
