When evening rolled around, Zack helped them order dinner, and the room service staff delivered it to
the room. He had ordered a lot of food and included his portion in the order too.
Sophia was leaning against the bed, playing a game. Despite hearing the commotion outside, she
didn’t move, pretending to be unaware.
After a while, John pushed open the door and came inside. Standing at the door, he said, “It’s
dinnertime.”
Thus, she shifted her gaze from her phone to him.
How do I explain this feeling? It’s like I’m in a different time and place and the roles have been
reversed. In the past, John always used to shut himself in his study after returning home. Most of the
time, I was the one that invited him to dinner. However, I didn’t dare to enter his study. I could only
knock on the door and stand by the door to tell him that it’s dinnertime.
Withdrawing her gaze, she replied, “Okay. I’ll go over once I finish this game.”
John said nothing, turning around to leave instead.
In the past, he used to reply in just the same way: ‘Okay, I’ll go over once I finish looking through this
document.’ However, most of the time, he only came down after I finished eating.
At the time, I had very low-esteem. Thus, I couldn’t help wondering whether this man was deliberately
trying to avoid me—so much so that he even had to stagger his mealtimes.
Just thinking about the past made her extremely uncomfortable.
Unfortunately, Sophia failed to get past that stage. However, it had not even been two minutes since
John had left. Thus, she put her phone down, took a deep breath, and got off the bed.
Zack and John were already seated, but they had yet to touch their chopsticks. It looked like they were
waiting for her.
Walking over, she pulled out a chair and sat down emotionlessly.
Then, John said, “Let’s eat.”
Zack glanced over at Sophia. “He refused to let me touch my chopsticks before you came.”
She grunted. “Are you blaming me?”
He was taken aback. He didn’t expect her to react in that way. After being stunned for a moment, he
explained in a small voice, “I wasn’t blaming you.”
She said nothing. Instead, she lowered her head to eat.
He had ordered a nutritious soup for her. The taste wasn’t special, so she took a few mouthfuls before
putting her spoon down.
John had been eating his food with his head lowered. However, when he saw Sophia putting down her
spoon, he said in a low voice, “Finish the soup.”
His tone wasn’t nice, but it wasn’t harsh enough to make a person uncomfortable.
Sophia frowned slightly and turned her head to look at him.
Still, he didn’t even look at her as he continued eating.
She pondered over it, then picked up her spoon again and took a few more mouthfuls.
Zack looked at the two of them cautiously. He couldn’t help but feel that the atmosphere between them
was strange. At first, he could have straightened out the atmosphere between them. Unfortunately, he
didn’t even dare to say another word now.
Thus, the three of them ate in silence. After dinner, Zack created a reason to leave.
Later, Sophia returned to the bedroom and stood by the window, looking outside. By now, many people
were gathered by the beach—the nightlife was beginning again.
Even so, she waited for a while more until the beach was bustling with life before she turned to go out.
John was still staring solemnly at his computer while wearing a pair of anti-radiation glasses.
She didn’t say anything to him as she headed straight to the door. Surprisingly, when she reached the
door and placed her hand on the handle, she heard him say from behind her, “Where are you going?”
Without stopping or even turning around, she replied, “I’m going out to have fun.”
He pushed his computer aside and turned his head to look at her. From the beginning, she had been
on the slimmer side. Moreover, she was sick and hospitalized previously. Thus, her back looked even
smaller and frailer now.
At first, he was about to say something rather unpleasant. However, when he saw how she looked, he
paused and swallowed those words. In the end, he only said, “We are currently in a partnership, so I
hope you can restrain yourself.”
Sophia smiled and opened the door. “I got it.” After saying that, she walked out, closing the door behind
her.
On the other hand, John was expressionless. Even the usual frown on his face did not appear. After
sitting in his seat for a short moment, he pulled his computer back to him and resumed looking through
his documents. He wasn’t affected by her behavior at all. As long as she behaved herself and did not
cause any trouble for him, he honestly did not care where she went.
