Next One Is a Babe

She then went upstairs to tidy up her room. Just after she changed into a fresh set of clothes, she spotted Logan and Ian standing outside her house through the window.

The two were carrying shopping bags which were filled to the brim.

Sophia opened the window and stuck half of her body out to talk to them. “Why are you guys here?”

They were just about to head to the courtyard when they heard her and looked up.

They saw half of her body outside one of the windows. Her hair was sent flying in all directions by the blowing wind and she looked like she was in a buoyant mood judging from the wide grin on her face.

Ian let out a sigh of relief at the sight because she didn’t seem to be affected in the least bit by the stir that was happening on the internet.

Logan lifted one of the shopping bags and waved it at her. “We’re here to have dinner with you. We know how lonely you must feel to be alone at home so we decided to offer you some jolly company.”

This time, Sophia did not find Logan a nuisance but instead, she made a dash downstairs to welcome his arrival happily.

Judging from the amount of food they had bought, it seemed like they were having a steamboat tonight.

Being very familiar with the place as he had visited her place before, Logan carried the food straight to the kitchen.

He took out the food packet by packet and placed them one by one on the kitchen counter. “Look at the amount of food we got from the supermarket. We have to fix ourselves a lavish meal tonight!”

Sophia headed over to the kitchen to help him wash up the pork ribs before using it to brew the soup base.

Ian then walked over to give them a hand too.

While cleaning the greens, Logan commented, “In fact, I tried calling John in the afternoon but he didn’t pick up. Guess he can barely cope with what’s happening now. Have any of you read the comments on the internet? It’s so obvious that someone behind the scene is trying to throw mud at John because all the comments were aimed at degrading him.”

Sophia didn’t check the news because she couldn’t be bothered to after being busy all day cleaning her house.

She responded, “I think so. Someone has started doing that way before this.”

Logan then went on to wash the greens at the basin before he continued, “I’ve asked my sister to keep a lookout but it won’t be easy trying to find out the culprit. It isn’t hard to control the media but you can’t do the same thing when it comes to the netizens. Even though you’re sure a post was written by a ghostwriter, there’s nothing you can do about it.”

Sophia appeared unperturbed. “I suppose the Constances and the Baileys know exactly what they should do to deal with it because they aren’t a bunch of pushovers. Logan, I feel bad for troubling your family. In fact, you guys can stop bothering about it if it’s too much of a hassle.”

“You don’t have to feel bad. Don’t worry about it because it isn’t a big deal,” Logan insisted with a grin.

After some thinking, Ian asked, “Didn’t John tell you anything?”

Confused by his question, Sophia stared at Ian and explained, “There isn’t anything he has to say to me because we have already divorced each other a long time ago. He is under no obligation to offer me any explanation. In fact, we had been thinking about how to announce our divorce to the public for some time previously, but it seems like God has decided for us.”

Ian chuckled, “You are very optimistic, aren’t you?”
