Next One Is a Babe Chapter 248

John took a seat beside William with Sophia next to him. As for Isabelle, she was seated beside Old
Mr. Bailey and diagonally across from Sophia. The two girls could see each other when they lifted their
heads. This seating arrangement was quite similar to the arrangement in the Constance Family’s dining
hall.

When they started ordering food, William handed the girls the menu, claiming that the ladies should go
first. Even so, Sophia didn’t care about ordering earlier or later because she had just finished a meal
before this and was not hungry at all. She flipped through the menu and picked nothing. John gave her
a look and took the menu from her. He more or less knew about her situation, and he volunteered to
choose. “Let me do it. I know what you like.”

Isabelle immediately shifted her gaze from the menu to John’s face. Old Mr. Bailey then coughed
beside Isabelle and asked, “Belle, what would you like?”

His question cleared up her distracted mind, and she hurriedly looked down at the menu. “I guess I’ll
take a look. Hmm… I like these few dishes.”

“Order anything you like. If there’s more than one, just get them all.” His voice was almost a whisper,
whereupon Isabelle looked at him and nodded. “Okay.”

Sophia lifted a brow in amusement. The father and daughter were obviously talking in circles, thinking
that she would not understand it. After the menu was passed around and everyone ordered their food,
the waiter left the table with the orders.

Meanwhile, Elder Mr. Bailey had been staring at Sophia for quite some time. She was well aware of his
attention, for it was impossible not to notice the old man’s eagle-sharp eyes unless one was blind.



However, Sophia didn’t entertain him and merely turned around to inform John about her store
opening. Within these few days, she would be getting the design plan. It was also close to the end of
the month, which meant that the rental contract would come into effect soon.

Yesterday, Robin sent her a message, informing her that the desserts would be disposed of and that
she could bring some workers in to take a look around. As for finding the right construction workers,
Sophia had decided to enroll Zack for help because he seemed reliable. With Zack around, or more
specifically, with John around, it was less likely for her to be scammed.

After she chatted a little with John, Elder Mr. Bailey made a remark across the table, “I heard that
you’re now living together with John instead of staying at the old residence.”

Sophia paused as she stared at Elder Mr. Bailey. She then grunted and added, “Yeah. The old
residence is far from the company, and John always has a lot of work events going on. I don’t want to
make him travel too much.” Sophia came prepared with the carefully-crafted excuse.

The old man smiled at her. “Is that so? But when I look at the other members of the Constance
Family…”

Before he could finish speaking, Sophia instantly cut him off, “What the other family members do is
none of my business. I’m doing this because I care about my husband. If others from the Constance
Family are willing to wake up in the wee hours to travel to work, it’s their freedom. But I don’t want to
see John tired from the commute, and I prefer to settle down in the city area. That’s my freedom too.”

see John tired from the commute, and I prefer to settle down in the city area. That’s my freedom too.”

To be honest, Sophia’s rebuttal was quite bold, but because she expressed it in a cordial tone and with
a pleasant expression, aided by her pretty features and demure manners, the lengthy rebuttal did not
come across as rude.

Elder Mr. Bailey was stunned and squinted his eyes. His gaze became even more unfriendly toward
her. This was the first time someone had the guts to interrupt him. She was indeed a country bumpkin
with a terrible upbringing!

After defending herself, Sophia inched closer to John. “Look, now John even has the extra time to rest
and relax at home after work. How great is that?” She seemed to be ignoring everyone else’s
expression because she went on, “This is why we shouldn’t make our lives troublesome just to please
others.”

John cast a glance at Sophia and curled his lips. His smile appeared rather insincere. Despite that,
Sophia did not take it to heart. She did not care what the others thought about her as long as she could
make them feel as uneasy as possible.
