Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 821


Walking up to Sophia, Dylan replied, “I couldn’t sleep as well. It felt really boring to be on the bed, so I decided to come take a walk.” There was some morning dew on his hair.

Since the rock was large enough to accommodate two people, Sophia asked, “Do you want to take a rest?”

Dylan gave it a look and took a seat beside her.

Gazing at the view beyond the bamboo forest, Sophia commented, “It’s my first time seeing this view in the morning. It feels good.”

Dylan flashed a smile at her. “I’ve seen the view countless times, so I’m rather used to it now.”

After a pause, Sophia said, “John told me that you’re responsible for dealing with the Baileys now. Has it been troublesome for you?”

“Not really.” Dylan smacked his lips. “After I took over the responsibility, the Baileys assigned someone else to deal with me. I wonder why.”


Knowing the reason behind that, Sophia pressed her lips together without uttering a word.

Dylan continued, “Isabelle came to our company some time ago. After a chat, I found her to be a pushover. She didn’t seem to have her own opinions.”

His remark surprised Sophia, for she had always believed that Isabelle was an opinionated person.

Then, Dylan went on to say, “Perhaps it’s got something to do with the environment she has grown up in. After all, she’s a woman, and she has a brother, so she’s destined to not take over the company. She’s just managing the company for the time being.”

Although Sophia didn’t understand Isabelle’s family matters, she knew that the latter had a brother. After giving it a thought, she asked, “Isn’t it wonderful to have a daughter and a son?”

Dylan nodded. “It’s indeed great to have a daughter and a son at the same time, but to the Baileys, maybe a daughter isn’t so important.”

Sophia fell silent, for she thought that men were only valued more than women in the village, as men were needed to work on the farmlands. Since men were strong, they were naturally in a more preferable position.

Sophia knew that was the norm in the village, but she didn’t understand why the same thing happened in the city.

Dylan chuckled. “That’s just how I feel. Maybe that’s not really the case.”

After sitting for a while longer, Dylan had to go back. Not wanting to return yet, Sophia insisted upon staying here. Nodding, Dylan told her to be careful and turned to leave.
