While Sophia was ordering, she lifted her head several times to ask John for his opinion. Thus, she
naturally noticed the person sitting not too far away from them—it was a man. Everybody else in their
surroundings was eating normally, except for this man—he was surreptitiously watching the two of
them.
Still, she wasn’t sure whether that man was in cahoots with the woman that was offering herself to
John. After ordering what she wanted, she handed the menu to John. “Do you have anything else you
want to add to the order?”
John grunted in reply.
Then, she asked softly, “That man at 10 o'clock; is there a problem with him?”
He continued to study the menu. “When we came over and sat down, he snapped a photo of us with
his phone.”
I see; that means he’s definitely a suspicious person.
Thus, she murmured something in reply and didn’t say anything more.
Once they placed their orders, they called the waiter over to take the menu away.
After that, Sophia and John were left alone.
I wonder where Zack has gone off to; why isn’t he back yet?
Feeling a little awkward, Sophia tried to find something to talk about. “If I help you, what am I supposed
to do next?”
What’s next…
John mulled over it for a bit. I guess we’ll need to stay in the same room. No matter how you put it,
sleeping in two different rooms when I’m with my wife just doesn’t sound right.
However, he did not mention that. “I’m not certain either. I’ll need to see if the Infinity Group takes any
other actions. If they don’t, then I don’t think you need to do anything else as long as news of our
divorce doesn’t spread.”
Upon hearing that, she nodded in acknowledgment of his words.
Then, silence fell over them again.
To be honest, she wasn’t sure why it was so awkward between them now. After all, things were never
stiff between them in the past—they had gotten along normally. Even after our divorce, I managed to
seduce him while I was drunk the other day. So, why are we so stiff with each other today? It’s
inexplicably uncomfortable.
After disappearing off somewhere for a long while, Zack finally returned with two plates of fruits.
However, the way he walked was strange—he was shuffling and stooping forward slightly. Placing the
plates of fruit down on the table, he leaned on the table, groaning, “Oh, my stomach. I don’t know
what’s wrong, but it feels so painful. I’m suspecting that there was something wrong with the water
Trevor handed to me before.”
Sophia frowned. “I gave that water to Trevor. He only passed it over to you.”
He looked surprised. “Anyway, my stomach hurts like crazy.”
John didn’t look worried. Rather, his attitude was a little cold and distant. “Are you saying you want to
go back to the room?”
In response, Zack hurriedly nodded. “Yes. It hurts a lot and I need to go back to the room for a bit.”
With that, Sophia understood what Zack was playing at. Leaning back against the chair, she said,
“That’s enough. Stop acting; you’re terrible at it anyway.”
Zack was still resting with his head on the table, Despite being seen through by Sophia, he wasn’t
embarrassed and continued with his pretense. “I can’t; I can’t. I need to hurry back. You guys can eat
without me.”
After saying that, he got up. Holding his stomach, he slowly walked out of the restaurant while
groaning.
Sophia smiled a little coldly. Then, she turned her head and glanced at John. “Does he have some sort
of misunderstanding about us? Why is he so persistent?”
Naturally, John had sensed that. Even so, he got up and moved over to the seat opposite her without
saying anything.
Lifting her gaze to stare at him, she asked, “The woman who drugged you; was it that young lady we
met by the beach the other day?”
He was stunned. For her to bring up this topic was beyond his expectations. Thus, he fell silent for a
while before saying, “Yeah.”
Upon hearing that, she smiled and muttered to herself, “I guessed right.”
I could tell that that woman had something for John. A woman’s judgment about another woman is still
the most accurate after all.
When he said nothing, she continued, “That woman was rather attractive. To be honest, you could
have…”
The rest of her sentence trailed off. Instead, she wiggled her brows at him, indicating her meaning.
A frown began to form between his brows as he stared at her in response.
On the other hand, she smiled. “Besides, you’re single anyway. Even if you did something, it’s normal.”
John frowned so deeply that the creases between his brows were as deep as a canyon. “I don’t feel
anything for her.”
How can I touch a woman I feel nothing for? Just thinking about touching a woman I don’t have feelings
for makes me uncomfortable.
The dimples at the corners of Sophia’s mouth appeared almost immediately as she said with a wicked
smile, “Then, do you have a thing for me?”
