Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 392

John didn’t have a good temper, but he used to keep it in check. At most, he was just unfriendly, but now he would hurl things around. Whenever Zack went to John’s office now, he would be greeted with documents sprawled on the ground, while John would be smoking beside the window, obviously frustrated. He was vastly different from how he was before.

Sophia frowned. “Why are you telling me that? I don’t think I have anything to do with that.”

Zack chuckled. “If you say so. He did this to himself, really. You’re doing good ignoring him.”

Refusing to talk about this, Sophia shifted the topic, saying, “I went to the shop, and the renovations are almost done.”

Zack grunted. “Yeah. It’ll probably be done in two days. They’ll brush up on the details, and you’ll have to let the place air out for a few days. They used recyclable materials, but it’s still harmful.”


Sophia nodded. “Understood. Tell me when the renovation is done, then I’ll make the payment.”

“Your ex-husband has paid for it, so it’s fine,” Zack quickly replied.

Sophia clicked her tongue. Of all the things that could happen. Even so, she said, “Just tell me the cost and I’ll pay John back. I don’t need him to do this, so just let me pay.”

After a pause, Zack said, “I’ll ask him after everything’s done. If you still want to pay him, that’s your choice. Let’s see what he says.”

Sophia grunted, and after a while of small talk, she ended the call. Feeling bored, she went to read the news online. As expected, the news about the Constances had less coverage now that they chose to ignore it. Comments were still coming in, but at a smaller magnitude now.

John and Isabelle were handling their own companies, so all the news outlets could capture was how they were working. With nothing to go on, the media could only conclude that they weren’t affected by public opinion. Now everyone would think that the earlier reports were just speculations. At this, Sophia smiled and put her phone down. It’s going to blow over soon, and I can get on with my life.

On the other hand, John went home after work, while William got back sooner than he did. When John looked around to see if his mother was here, Belinda said, “Stop looking around. She didn’t come.”
