Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 251

The moment Sophia pushed the door open, she was taken aback by the sight of John lying on her bed in his pajamas. It appeared that he had fallen asleep.

She stood at the door, gasping and wondering why he was in her bedroom. She shuffled over and asked, “John, did you enter the wrong room?”

His eyes remained closed as if he had not heard a thing. She shook his body, but he suddenly reached out and dragged her onto the bed by her arm. Eyes closed, he said in a hoarse voice, “Stop fooling around. I’m tired.”

She lay on top of him, and after some thinking, she moved to the side and lay down beside him.

The curtains were half-opened, and some light spilled into her bedroom. She took a good look at his face and agreed that he looked rather tired.

She slowly crawled out of bed and tiptoed out of the room to head downstairs. Then, she stared out from the living room windows, confused by their current situation.

What did John mean? Were both of them embarking on a cohabitation journey as lovers?

She initially thought that he disliked her. Is he after my body?

She drew a sharp breath and felt uncomfortable at the thought.

Was it possible for this man to separate his feelings and his lust?

She spent some time watching tv downstairs but was bored out of her mind, so she took a cab to the dessert store, where she saw Robin cleaning the place. Robin saw her coming and quickly invited her to take a seat.

The place was almost cleaned, and it was empty. Robin told her that the place never had many customers to begin with. With not many options available on the menu, the store lost most of its customers in the past few days.

Today, Robin had cleaned up with the plan of closing doors early. The store had no business anyway, and there was no point wasting more time there.

Sophia took a look around and nodded. “That’s fine. Let’s take a rest for a few days. When everything’s done on my side, we will get busy.”

Robin packed the trash and took a seat, letting out a sigh. “I always feel that I’d be much more relieved after this store is closed. It’s too tiring to start a business on my own. I’m different from you. Look, you have the support of your husband. Even if you lose money, he could absorb the losses. The same cannot be said of me. Since I’m doing this alone, I am very sensitive to profits and losses. That’s why I feel tired from the stress every single day.”

Sophia pursed her lips. It was true that she did not contribute much to running the store because she had a financial cushion and therefore was not too stressed.
