Not understanding Logan’s family business at all, Sophia directly asked, “What is the nature of your
family business? How are you going to do business with the Baileys?”
The Jeffersons were involved in multiple industries. Logan’s four sisters and his brothers-in-law helped
manage the business empire.
Not interested in running a business, Logan couldn’t give a clear answer when he was asked about the
nature of his family business.
After giving it a thought, he replied, “Well, we’re involved in all kinds of businesses. There’s always a
way to cooperate when there’s a will.”
Sophia leaned against the couch. “Then why did you call me?”
Upon pondering over the matter, he answered, “My dad wants me to attend the dinner. In fact, I don’t
really want to go. What’s the point of going there? They won’t play chess with me. It’s so boring that
we’ll just have a meal and leave. However, my dad said that they’ve talked about me, so he wants me
to show up at the dinner to show some respect to them. Well, he has a point.”
After that, he smiled and continued, “But I don’t want to go there alone… There are surely no beautiful
ladies at dinner. How will I have the appetite to eat anything?”
At this point, Sophia already figured out what he was trying to say. “Do you want me to go with you?”

“Oh, you’re so clever. See, you know me so well. That’s exactly what I’m trying to say.” Logan giggled
and said, “At least with you there, I can look at you and chat with you. Don’t you think so?”
Sophia snorted, “Who am I to attend the dinner? They will be baffled if they see me there because they
want to have a meal with you, not me. Don’t you think I’m going to embarrass myself?”
“You won’t embarrass yourself,” Logan replied in an upset tone. “I’m going there with you. If they don’t
welcome you, I’ll directly reprimand them. I’m sure they know my temper well. Don’t worry. With me
around, they’ll have to respect you.”
Sophia replied hesitantly, “The Baileys are treating you to a meal. It’s not nice that I go with you.”
She didn’t want to attend the dinner because they were certainly going to talk about business, which
she wasn’t interested in. However, she was curious why the Baileys wanted cooperation with the
Jeffersons.
Logan persuaded, “Please come with me. You’ll be fine. If you don’t want to go, I’m not going as well.
Really.”
Sophia’s gaze darted around as she gave it a thought and agreed, “Alright, but I have to tell you that
I’m a hot-tempered person, so if anyone upsets me by then, I’ll fight back directly. Don’t blame me if the
atmosphere becomes awkward.”
Logan burst into laughter. “You don’t have to do anything. If anyone disrespects you, I’ll scold the
person directly.”
Sophia was relieved upon hearing. “Alright, tell me when the dinner is.”
“It should be tonight. My dad told me to go home in the evening. I’ll have a look and tell someone to
fetch you.”
“Okay.” Sophia agreed to his request.
After the call ended, Sophia fiddled with the phone and sneered.
She was going to the dinner because she wanted to meet Isabelle.
Isn’t she trying to be a businesswoman? I’ll make sure to embarrass her by then.
Sophia stayed at home for the entire morning. In the afternoon, Zack called and said that he was going
to the shop with the interior designer.
Robin had given Sophia a spare key because she trusted the latter.
With the key in her purse, Sophia directly hailed a taxi and headed for the shop.
