Sophia had thought she got something great, but it turned out to be a bomb.

Standing up from the sofa, Dylan said. “I know too little, so I won’t talk further with all of you here. Please, carry on. We young ones shall go and chat for a while outside.”

While walking around the couch, he looked at Sophia. “Let’s go for a walk?”

Sophia hurriedly nodded and walked toward the door. When she passed by John, she raised her eyebrows at him. “Let’s go for a walk?”

John hummed in agreement, then glanced at Isabelle who smilingly agreed, “Sure”.

When the four of them came out of the main building, Dylan breathed a sigh of relief. “John is right. It’s terrible to sit there and talk to them about the company. It gave me a bad headache.”

Sophia laughed. “That's because you’re more capable than them. If I’m the one talking to them, I will give them a headache instead.”

John couldn’t really understand this kind of self-deprecating joke, so he simply watched as Dylan and Sophia laughed together.

That uncomfortable feeling rose up in him again.

As Isabelle walked over to John, she whispered to him, “Miss Gwendolyn and Dylan seem to get along pretty well.”

John sneered and said indifferently, “So what if they get along? He has missed the chance, and there’s no turning back.”


Dylan was just two steps ahead of them. Hearing that, his body stiffened slightly.

Without knowing that Dylan had heard it, Sophia looked back at John with a frown and said in disgust, “What are you talking about? Are you crazy again?”

Despite being someone without a sense of humor, John went along with what Sophia said. “Perhaps I was infected by you after drinking your soup with your spoon just now.”

However, Sophia was never afraid of this kind of talk.

In a very flippant manner, she replied, “But you’ve had plenty of my saliva, and you were fine before. Yet today you’ve gone crazy!”

Isabelle and Dylan’s expressions stiffened.

This topic was a bit inappropriate after all.

Nevertheless, John didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it at all. “You’re right. Maybe I had plenty of it usually, so I was fighting evil with evil every day.”

Sophia snorted. She turned back and then walked off.

Curving his mouth upward, John put his hands in his pockets and slowly followed behind.

There was no reply from Dylan this time.

Isabelle too didn't speak anymore.

It was clear that the sexual innuendos were meant for John and Sophia, but those two looked very calm as if they hadn’t said anything.

Instead, the other two felt a little bit embarrassed.

The four went to the garden again.

There were fruits and a tea kettle on the table where they were sitting just now.

They were probably brought by the maid just now.

Sophia hurried over and took a grape, which she stuffed into her mouth.
