“I am,” John replied, which further confused Zack. He thus pressed on, “Why would you order takeaway
if you’re at home? Didn’t Sophia cook?”
After taking a deep breath, John said, “She was hurt, so she is resting in her room.”
“What?” The news came as a shock to Zack. “Why is she hurt? Is it severe?”
The manner in which John replied betrayed no emotion. “She’s alright, just that her leg was scraped by
some glass, but she will recover soon.”
Zack was feeling more relieved after listening to what John said. “You wait there while I go get some
food. I’ll be there in a bit.”
The call was hung up after John grunted in reply. He then settled on the sofa to stare at the TV screen
without switching it on, spending his time in silence until Zack arrived. The portion which he carried with
him was obviously too much for two people as he stepped through the door. “Where’s Sophia? Go get
her for the meal!”
After glancing at the food in Zack’s hands, John went upstairs without a word. While Zack was busy
setting up the table, John carried Sophia downstairs. She was not fully awake, as her eyes were shut
while leaning against his shoulder with an indignant look on her face. The same
Zack saw the wound on her leg as soon as he approached them, thus he cried out in surprise, “What
happened? How did you hurt your leg?”
Her only response was a snort as John put her down on the chair, while Zack came up to her again.
“Tell me what happened. Who did this to you?”
Sophia was rubbing her eyes when she explained, “It could’ve been worse. I thought I would be
disfigured when the shard flew at me, but it was thanks to Ian that I got out of it almost unscathed.”
“What did Ian do?” Zack was startled by her answer.
John sat down beside them before saying in a lukewarm manner, “You wouldn’t have been hurt if it
wasn’t for him.”
There was a moment’s pause while Sophia’s mouth hung agape before she said, “That might be true
as well.”
However, Zack’s attention was on something else. “Why did you meet up with him again? Aren’t you
two seeing each other a little too frequently?”
Contrary to his usual taciturn nature, John let out a huff before adding, “Look at her finger.”
Zack looked toward Sophia’s finger as he said to see the eye-catching ring she wore, but he wasn’t
sure what he meant. “What’s with her finger?”
There was a look of satire on John’s face. “The ring is a gift from Ian.”
There was a look of satire on John’s face. “The ring is a gift from Ian.”
“What?” Zack nearly leapt out of his seat. “Ian is the one who gave this to her, and not you?” He
already saw the ring when he went to negotiate with Mr. Reyes the other day, but he assumed it was
given by John. The truth turned out to be not as he expected, as it was a gift by someone else, which
was intolerable.
John let out a sneer as if having thought of something while leaning against the back of the chair. “It’s
fine either way, as I wish to see you teach the Morgans a lesson.”
Meanwhile, Sophia was sulking as she chided, “Are we going to eat? You woke me up from my sleep
for a meal, yet all you guys are doing now is to tattle about my private life.”
Upon looking between Sophia and John, Zack determined that the mood wasn’t right, so he quickly
changed the topic. “Alright, let’s eat! I bought loads, and the soup is for you, Sophia! Drink it to help
soothe your stomach.” While Zack handed her a bowl of soup, John picked up his cutleries before Zack
followed suit.
