Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 1194

There were also other models, but Lola didn’t recognize them. She then arched a brow. “Why didn’t you make one of yourself?”

It was only when she said that did Logan think of it. “You’re right. I’ve made one of you, so I’ve got to make one of myself beside you. Else, you’ll be lonely by yourself.”

His reaction speed is just impressive! I’m simply at my wits’ end when it comes to him. Lola looked around for a bit more before going over to the control panel. I truly can’t figure out these high-tech things. After studying it for a while, she commented, “This must have cost a pretty penny, huh?”

Logan nodded. “It cost quite a bit, but it wasn’t too bad. It was still affordable.”

Lola grunted. “Next time, don’t waste your money on something so pointless. Even if you’ve got money, this isn’t how it should be squandered. Ask me before you make such a huge purchase next time and get my approval. Do you understand me?”

Logan hastily nodded. “Yes, yes.”

Turning her head, Lola stared at him. I’m dead certain he didn’t understand my meaning again.

Meanwhile, the investigation on the Bailey Family had concluded. Isabelle was the only one who remained innocent in the entire matter, for even Ernest who was in the dark was implicated. It was John who told Sophia about this. At that time, the two of them were sitting in the garden in Constance Residence with Sophia lying on John’s lap, on the verge of dozing off groggily. As John’s voice was low and languid as he spoke, Sophia didn’t take this news seriously, merely murmuring in acknowledgment before closing her eyes and ceasing all movement.

John stroked her hair as though petting a cat. It wasn’t certain whether Sophia was talking in her sleep or simply mentioning it casually, but she mumbled that she wanted to eat Robin’s dessert.

John stilled. He’d almost forgotten about Robin since she hadn’t mentioned her name in a long time. He remembered that Robin had already gotten married. She’d even invited them to the wedding at that time, but Sophia was pregnant then, so she couldn’t attend weddings according to the so-called customs observed by the older generation. Nevertheless, she did give Robin quite a huge sum as a wedding gift. He was the one who went over to give her the money, but he didn’t tarry at the wedding. Also, he recalled her calling to convey her thanks, but communication became sparse thereafter.

Now that Sophia had suddenly muttered such a remark, John merely went along with her and replied, “Sure, sure. I’ll go and buy it for you later.” Sophia even hummed thoughtfully before she seemingly fell asleep.

The two of them stayed in the garden for a long time. As John scanned through the recent news on his cell phone, he caressed Sophia. All the recent news was related to the Baileys. No one ever expected such a huge scandal to break out during Ernest’s birthday celebration considering the magnitude of the Bailey Family, nor did they ever imagine that Elder Mr. Bailey who had one foot in the grave would actually plot harm against the pregnant Sophia as well as John as revenge for his granddaughter. Sure enough, the old geezer was still as vicious as he was in his younger days, and he was still as ruthless.

The internet was abuzz with comments, and it was naturally a barrage of criticism against the Bailey Family. Some people mentioned Isabelle as well, bringing up the fact that she once wanted to insert herself into Sophia and John’s marriage. Thus, no one could really tell the relationship between the three of them though everyone concurred that it was truly reprehensible to harm a pregnant woman.
