Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 247

William nodded. “Yes, do join us for lunch. What a coincidence that you’re here, Sophia! You should join us for lunch as well. You didn’t manage to join us the other time, so this is just the perfect timing.”

Beaming, Sophia didn’t decline but agreed right away. “Sure.”

John walked over and stared at her. “Let’s all go together, then.”

Isabelle’s gaze swept over them, but her expression remained unchanged. After putting his work away, John then left with Sophia and the others. When they entered the elevator, John and Sophia stood far back. Meanwhile, William and Elder Mr. Bailey stood by the doors, making small talk and bringing up the collaboration again.

Sophia couldn’t understand a single word, so she leaned close to John and asked in a murmur, “When did you leave this morning? I was too tired that I didn’t even notice you leave.” She was initially a tad shy about last night’s incident since they were divorced, after all. While they did have intercourse a few times in the past, those were all inevitable due to some external factors. Last night, however, was the real deal because they were both sober and conscious. Thus, she was a touch embarrassed and didn’t know how she should face him.

But now that Isabelle was right beside them, she was no longer concerned about propriety. Her sole focus was on getting under Isabelle’s skin. Although she’d lowered her voice, Isabelle could naturally hear her when John could do so since she was standing on the other side of him.

Slightly twisting his body sideways to face her, John caught sight of the marks on her neck the moment he looked down. Honestly speaking, he was indeed deliberate in leaving marks on her last night. As he stared at her neck, he instantly recalled all those things he did in bed last night. He was too sober last night, and the light was switched on, so he remembered every single detail. Pursing his lips, he lowered his voice to whisper, “I even checked the wound on your calf this morning. Didn’t you sense anything at all?”

Sophia smiled infatuatedly. “So, you rebandaged my wound this morning?” John hummed in assent.

When the elevator doors opened with a ding, Isabelle walked out with the people in front, her back ramrod straight. Sophia stared at her back with a smirk, utter delight flooding her.

When they left the building and got into the car, Sophia didn’t bother asking where they were going, dropping the act since Isabelle wasn’t in the same car as her and John. In fact, she wasn’t at all hungry, for she’d just eaten. She was merely going with them so that a certain person wouldn’t be able to enjoy this meal. It’d be even better if Mrs. Constance were here as well this time. After having not seen her in a long time, I truly miss her for a bit.
