When Sophia served him a bowl of rice porridge, he sighed at her. “I’ll still be busy today and likely

going to come home late. You don’t have to stay up for me.”

She replied, “Okay, I got it.”

John had always been a busy man, a fact he did not have to specially remind her of. His busy schedule

had nothing to do with her.

In fact, she was not bored at all because Logan had texted her early in the morning, inviting her to visit

him at the clubhouse.

Sophia looked forward to the trip because she was now single and free. Therefore, she wanted to enjoy

the food, the gambling, and the men… No, just the food and the fun.

The pair finished their breakfast in silence. John quickly gathered his stuff and prepared to leave.

Before he left the house, he glanced at her again. “Just help me to pick out a gift for Uncle Owen’s

birthday. I’ll tip you for the work.”

Sophia was taken aback but soon smirked at him. “Sure.”

When he got a swift agreement from her end, he smiled and said, “I don’t want cufflinks.”

Since Sophia did not say anything about it, John left the house for work. She waited until he was far

gone before softly spitting in the direction he went.

She was in a foul mood because he had destroyed the atmosphere at breakfast. How did she even fall

for a man like him?

She wolfed down the remaining food and cleaned up the kitchen before changing and heading out to

meet Logan.

At the same time, Logan was sitting in the hall of the clubhouse, playing the game ‘Fight the Landlord’

with the waiters. Sitting cross-legged on the sofa in his pajamas, he didn’t even have his shoes on.

The waiters must have been frequently dragged into gaming with him because they were used to it.

When Sophia arrived, Logan happened to be throwing a card out. “I’ve thrown my Queen. Only one

card left! Any takers? If not, I’ll leave the game.”

Sophia stood there and stared at his side profile, thinking that gambling would be the end of Logan

someday.

The sprawling business empire built by Old Mr. Jefferson would not have survived without his four

enterprising daughters.

What was the point of trying for a son in the past? Just look at that failure.

Sophia approached him. “It’s still in the morning, but all you have done is useless gaming. Don’t you

think you’re too decadent?”

Logan turned around, and his eyes lit up when he saw Sophia. He did not care whether the other

players wanted to take his abandoned card as he gave up on his final card. “Alright, I’m out. Get your

rewards at the front desk later. I’ll consider this as your win!”

The two waiters were overjoyed and thanked him. He waved at them. “Get busy.”

To be honest, there was no customer at all, and the waiters had nothing to work on. Logan jumped

down from the sofa and stood barefooted on the floor. “Come here. I have something good to show

you. It arrived last night.”

He dragged her by the arm toward the stairs. She followed him and told him, “To be honest, I’m here

because I have a favor to ask.”

Logan did not mind it. “Sure, just let me know. I can help you no matter what it is.”

Sophia smiled at his sincerity and followed him up the stairs. “Well, John’s Uncle Owen is having his

birthday soon, but John had no idea what to buy. He asked me to help, but I’m clueless as well. I just

wanted to ask you for some ideas.”

Logan paused and turned around to stare at her. “A birthday gift?’

Sophia replied, “Yeah, that’s why it is a difficult task. I’m not close to Uncle Owen, and I don’t know his

preferences.”

Logan flashed a smile. “That’s nothing to worry about. I happened to have a tea set here. It’s a gift from

someone. I’ll let you take it as a birthday gift.”

Sophia laughed dryly. “Nah, it doesn’t feel right to take your stuff.”
