Next One Is a Babe

Upon mentioning the Morgan Family, Logan was comparatively more psyched than the rest. “Well, Simon is basically the parasite of the family, whereas Sally is the daughter. Anyway, Bryce never looked kindly upon both of them in the first place, and now, they’ve probably made matters worse for themselves. Leah must be stressed out because of them.”

Not forgetting, Leah had schemed against Logan previously. As of now, Logan felt he had finally gotten back at her.

Leaning against the chair, Sophia stretched. “If Ian manages to achieve some results, I bet the Morgan Family will be chaotic.”

Rubbing his hands together, Logan assured, “Don’t you worry! Your boyfriend won’t lose out. He’ll definitely make it with flying colors.”

Dumbfounded, Robin gasped. “Boyfriend?”

Completely ignoring Sophia’s signaling, Logan spilled, “Sophia and Ian have been together ever since. They’ve just been keeping a low profile.”

With her eyebrows knitted together, Robin glanced at Sophia. “You? And Ian? When did this happen? How come I wasn’t aware? I thought the both of you were just friends.” Clearly, she was very surprised.

Initially, Sophia intended to explain that they were only friends, but after thinking about it, she dropped the idea. Since Ian had said it that way, it wouldn’t be nice to pull the rug out from under his feet, so Sophia just smiled.

Shocked beyond words, Robin slapped a hand over her own mouth. “No wonder you showed no interest in Mr. Constance. It’s because you’re in love with someone else.”

Frowning slightly, Sophia didn’t reply.

After dawdling about, Logan left, while Sophia and Robin were packing up before leaving. Since both of them were not heading toward the same direction, Sophia had offered Robin to take the taxi first. However, Robin shook her head and declined, “You go ahead first! I need to run an errand before getting home.”

Without giving much thought, Sophia called for a taxi and left. Standing there, Robin gazed at Sophia’s cab until it was no longer in sight. As Robin turned around, she was startled to see John, who stood not far away from her.

Instead of looking toward her, John had his eyes on the shop board that was hung on the wall. From the looks on his face, Robin reckoned he wasn’t in such a bad mood. With that, she walked toward him and greeted, “Mr. Constance.”

Looking away from the board, John gazed at Robin. “You’ve clocked out?”

Nodding her head, Robin reported, “Sophia just left.”

Obviously, John knew. In fact, he walked over the moment he saw her left. Tugging on her shirt, Robin didn’t know what else to say. “Mr. Jefferson was here a while ago, and we were chitter-chattering, so it took some time.”

Giving a simple acknowledgement, John didn’t say anything more. With her lips pursed, Robin said, “Mr. Jefferson had mentioned you, too. The media nowadays are downright terrible. They’ll make up any stories in order to seek the readers’ attention.”
