Shifting his attention to Zack, John explained, “What did Sophia tell you?”
Zack gasped and explained, “No, she didn’t tell me anything. I know nothing at all.”
Since his words suggested the opposite, John snorted and fell into silence.
Knowing that he failed in his attempt to sound John out, Zack also quickly fled the scene.
John leaned against the chair and let out a breath.
After a while, his phone vibrated.
He picked it up and saw that it was a message from Isabelle. It was a document from the Bailey
Corporation that requested for the purchase of goods.
John replied okay and thought to himself that she could have contacted Zack instead.
Putting down his phone, he rose from the chair and went to the restroom to wash his face.
Coming out, he saw Dylan walking into the office.
In that instant, he recalled that Young Master Owen’s birthday was just around the corner, and the
present Sophia brought home was bought by Ian.
Pfft.
After returning to his office, he took out his phone to send Sophia a message to ask her the price of the
present she bought for Young Master Owen.
His message was not immediately seen by Sophia who was watering plants.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was thirty minutes later when she saw the message.
Staring at it, she tried to come up with a price.
Although the present was given by Logan, it was also still a present given to him by another person.
Therefore, he was clueless about the price as well.
Frowning upon the aloof attitude of John, Sophia hissed and decided to come up with an exorbitant
price.
So, she called Logan and asked him about the price as she wanted to pay for the tea set.
Logan had never tried to get back the money of the presents he gave his friends. Sophia’s question
was akin to a slap in his face.
Displeased, he questioned, “Sophia, are you trying to insult me?”
Helpless, Sophia wondered why it was insulting by giving him the money.
She hoped that someone would insult her in such a way.
After she explained that it was not what she meant, Logan chided, “It’s my present to you, so stop
mentioning money. Otherwise I’ll be angry with you.”
With that, his tone became different as he changed the topic and giggled. “Well, please come to my
place one day. I’ll tell the sculptor to make a sculpture of you. Then—”
Sophia directly hung up the call.
Because she had no idea how much she should demand, she decided not to reply to John either.
Moreover, she would feel bad about it if he really gave her the money.
Since the present didn’t belong to her, it was akin to reselling Logan’s stuff if she asked for money,
which was very inappropriate.
Putting down the phone, she went to the study. It was the driving instructor who contacted her to ask
when she would like to sit for the first exam.
Sophia wanted to get it done quickly as she didn’t want to procrastinate anymore.
According to the instructor, he would make the arrangement immediately and inform her when the date
was set.
Sophia wished that she could get her driving license quickly. Although she could hail a taxi easily, it
didn’t feel as good as driving her own car.
Then, she started reading the driving textbook for the entire afternoon in the room.
When the night fell, she felt dizzy and went downstairs to prepare dinner.
Right after she got the rice cooker ready, John’s car pulled up outside the house.
Upon taking a look from afar, Sophia retracted her gaze.
John was talking on his phone as he entered the house.
Sophia didn’t hear what he said initially, but when she tried to take something from the refrigerator
which was located near the kitchen door, she heard him saying, “If my mom looks for you again, you
can ignore her if you’re busy.”
