John inwardly hissed. Dylan had indeed mentioned a girl to me, but the person we both talked about was Sophia. He
seems very much interested in annoying me with his vague shows of curiosity or concern about her before me
every single time.
If he were to consider Dylan’s attitude objectively without adding his subjective thoughts on the topic, Sophia indeed
fit the description of being the girl Dylan mentioned he liked.
However, he subjectively rejected this idea, so he shook his head right away. “No, he never said anything or
mentioned anyone to me. Dylan is taciturn in nature, so he won’t tell us such a thing.”
Lady Jennifer nodded. “You’re right. He’s rather reserved, so he’ll never tell us such a thing of his volition without us
asking him about it.”
The kitchen staff was done cooking the noodles, so John had it brought upstairs. Subsequently, he went upstairs as
well. When he returned to his room, he changed, while the servant placed the bowl of noodles on the bedside table.
Thereafter, he walked over and took a gander. There’s no improvement at all. Judging from the looks of it, it’s no
match for Sophia’s cooking.
He then sat down and took out his cell phone. Sophia had again sent him a message on Facebook, asking him who
exactly he was. He stared at his cell phone, but still, he didn’t reply since he had nothing to say.
Meanwhile, Sophia snagged her cell phone after washing up. Upon seeing that her message had gone unreplied for
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇta long time, she took a very direct route and gave the other person a voice call.
John, who was still eating noodles, startled at the incoming voice call. He fixed his eyes on the cell phone intently
before cracking up a few seconds later. I naturally can’t take this call. Unbidden, his mind wandered.
If Sophia finds out that it’s me, her wrath will definitely be even greater than when she saw me in her house today.
That girl’s temper is getting increasingly worse. Or more accurately speaking, she’s nice to everyone else, but she’s
progressively short-tempered with me alone.
Sophia called him twice, but when she realized that he had no intentions of taking the call, she finally gave up.
After a while, John tried browsing Sophia’s posts again. Hah, how predictable! She has unfriended me. All at once,
he burst out laughing. This girl is truly decisive and resolute in such matters. How heartbreaking! If only she retains
an iota of her lukewarm disposition of the past, I wouldn’t be caught in such a dilemma. He heaved a sigh.
Even after Sophia had unfriended the person on Facebook, her mood didn’t improve much. A fire blazed within her,
making her restless like a cat on hot bricks. What did that b*stard, John Constance, meant by coming over and
threatening me, then leaving?
What has it got to do with him if I get together with some other man? His remarks today were truly ridiculous. I was
blinded by rage then, for I really ought to have questioned his right to say all those things to me!
At the thought of this, stark regret inundated her as she felt that she’d failed to demonstrate her debate skills. I
actually have tons of rebuttals that would’ve rendered him speechless!
She lay on the bed with her cell phone in hand, casually browsing through the news on the Internet. There’s nothing
interesting. It’s all gossip. How boring! Just when she was about to put her cell phone down, she caught sight of a
rather intriguing piece of gossip—one related to the woman whom John left the bar with.
The woman’s information was dug up, and all her previous photos were also unearthed. The news report even
included her casual photos in which she was dressed stylishly although most of them were captured in nightclubs.
John wasn’t mentioned anywhere in there, but the comments below were all associated with him. Many presumed
that he had a preference for such women, for the average man couldn’t withstand the temptation of a woman who
looked so alluring and enticing.
