Old Mrs. Constance told him, “A few days ago, your Aunt Jennifer went for a tarot card reading for Dylan for

romance. The result wasn’t good and she lost her appetite for two meals after she returned.”

John knitted his brows. “Card readings are not accurate. You can’t believe in that.”

The old lady stared at him. “To be honest, the reason I wanted you to go to the monastery with me is to get a card

reading as well. I wanted to see how’s the reading for your romance.”

“If that’s the case, I definitely won’t go.” John smiled. “If I ended up like Dylan, I might stop eating for two days

when I get home.”

She laughed jovially. “Oh, it’s hard to tell that you care about these superstitions. I thought that you wouldn’t care

no matter how the reading turns out.”

Well, it was true that John couldn’t care less about the predictions from the card reading. However, any predictions

of bad luck would more or less affect his mood. Old Mrs. Constance mulled over it and sighed. “John, when will you

finally understand your true feelings?”

He froze in the middle of eating and fell silent at his grandmother’s remark.

After dinner, he went to the open space in front of the main building, where he lit a cigarette and held it in his

mouth. Soon, his staff sent him a text, notifying him that Ian went to meet Sophia.

He smirked and replied with an order to keep an eye on how long Ian spent at Sophia’s place. If Ian was still there

late at night, he demanded to be notified. His staff got the order and went ahead.

On the other side, Ian had been lingering in front of Sophia’s door before entering her house. As Sophia was busy in

the kitchen, she totally did not notice that someone had reached her place. So, when Ian called her from the living

room, she jumped, feeling startled.

She came out of the kitchen to greet him and beamed. “I heard that you were in a discussion about the talent show

with Miss Lorraine today. How was it? Are the details finalized?”

Judging by her demeanor, she must have been clueless about the incident last night. Ian stored away his

complicated emotions and replied, “Yep. They wanted to monitor the audience feedback for the first episode before

they decide my order of appearance.”

Sophia nodded. “Miss Lorraine must have made a reasonable decision. Hope that you’ll shoot to fame then.”

Ian wanted to smile, but he could not force himself to. Instead, he stared right into Sophia’s eyes. “You’ve had a lot

to drink last night. Are you still feeling sick now?”

The mention of her drinking reminded her of it. “I drank too much last night, so I can’t remember anything that

happened later. Did you drop by last night to return my phone?”

He answered, “Yes. John was here when I dropped by.”

She nodded. “I heard that it was him who sent me home. Well, John at least still acts like a human with a conscience

sometimes.”

Ian recalled that when John came downstairs last night, he obviously just came out from shower. Why would John

take a shower upstairs without any reason? Something must have happened between him and Sophia.

Pursing his lips in bitterness, Ian hesitated for some time before asking Sophia, “Do you remember anything after

you came home with John?”

She went to the sofa and took a seat with her legs crossed. “I really had too much to drink last night and I lost

consciousness the moment I left the room at the bar. I don’t even know if I made a scene there. It is so frustrating!”

Ian smiled bitterly. Looks like she doesn’t even know that she had been taken advantage of by John.

There was another matter Ian wanted to inform Sophia about during this visit. He told her that he’d be in intensive

training sessions soon. Lorraine got him a vocal coach and a fitness instructor to provide lessons in early

preparation for the talent show.

At the news, Sophia appeared to be more excited than him. “Great! It’s good to have early preparations. That will

help you achieve a better standing at the talent show!”

She didn’t sound reluctant at all to see him start the training. It was funny because the first thing Ian thought about

was her when he was informed of the intensive training period, which was the reason behind his long hesitation. In
