Robin was baffled for a moment before she took over the money and said with a smirk, “Sophia, you’re so generous.”

Sophia flashed a smile at her as this had nothing to do with generosity. Never had she taken advantage of anyone although she had been short of money in the past.

Since the money belonged to Robin, it should of course go to her.

It took quite some time for Zack to reach the shop and meet up with Sophia and Robin.

Seeing that the ladies were already in the shop, Zack said with a smile, “Boss, what do you think? This space must be larger than you have imagined.”

Sophia mumbled, “That’s true. It’s more spacious than I thought.”

Zack leaned against the door frame and gazed at the interior. “I have examined the renovation plan. A hundred percent of this space will be put to good use. I’m sure when the renovation is completed, the shop will look more comfy than before.”

Robin explained as he let out a sigh, “I did the renovation myself previously to save some money. I must have been fooled.”

To console Robin, Sophia patted her shoulder. If she didn’t know John and Zack, she would have been fooled as well.

It was already lunchtime and Zack hadn’t eaten anything. Upon giving it a thought, Sophia suggested, “It’s lunchtime now, so let me treat you guys to a meal. There’s a restaurant nearby.”


Robin quickly waved her hands in embarrassment. “There’s no need for that. Since there’s nothing to do anymore, I’ll just go home. Please go ahead.”

With a frown, Sophia replied, “It’s fine. You don’t have to be overly polite with me.”

“There’s really no need. I’ll go home now. Please go ahead,” Robin said as she directly walked out of the shop.

Therefore, Sophia stopped insisting and walked out as well after Robin was gone. “Let’s have a meal together. I’m starving.”

While walking behind her, Zack asked, “Tell me the truth. Did you have a quarrel with your ex husband? Otherwise he wouldn’t have decided not to go home. He’s not that kind of person.”

In response, Sophia hissed at Zack, “What do you mean by this? Why is it always my fault when anything happens? If John really went out to flirt with other women, are you going to blame me for not charming enough?”

It was at the moment that Zack realized that he had taken the wrong stance in this matter, which was a shock to him.

Smiling, he walked over and draped his arms around her shoulders. “Oh, please don’t get angry with me. That’s not what I mean. I’m just surprised because my boss never did that before.”

Sophia snorted and thought to herself that John was already a different man.

Nobody was born a bad person; they slowly became one.

Robin quickly wavad har hands in ambarrassmant. “Thara’s no naad for that. Sinca thara’s nothing to do anymora, I’ll just go homa. Plaasa go ahaad.”
