John stood at the side, remaining silent all the while, looking as if he had no intention of stopping Mrs. Constance at all.
Knowing that John was giving herself a chance, she nodded. “If that’s the case, then fine. I’ll give my friend a call.”
The b*stard Logan had saved his phone number in my phone by himself just now, so this is the perfect time to use it now. Sophia gave him a call directly.
Logan was pretty curious when he received her call. “Yo, Sophia. Why are you giving me a call? We’re only separated by a few steps. What’s up? Do you miss me?”
Although the phone was not on speaker, the inside of the room was quiet, and the sound from the phone was loud, so everyone at the table could hear what he said clearly.
William frowned, thinking that what the other party had said was a bit out of bounds. This isn't something that ordinary friends would say. Meanwhile, Mrs. Constance didn’t bother to hide the cold sneer on her face.
“Oh, we’re in Room 606, which is really not far away. Come here for a while; everyone here wants to get to know you,” Sophia replied.
“Oh? Is that so? They want to get to know me? Okay, I’ll go over immediately.” After he said that, there was static noise, followed by the sound of the private room door opening. Then, the voice on the phone and in the corridor overlapped somewhat. “Sophia, I’m here.”
Sophia hung up the phone, turned around and opened the door. When she did that, she glanced at Isabelle, her eyes twinkling and a smug smile on her lips.
When Logan saw Sophia, he ran over happily. “So these are your parents-in-law, aren’t they? Those are John’s parents. I’ve met them before.” With that, he directly opened the door of the room and came in. “Hi! Hello, everyone!” He was acting very familiar with everyone. When he looked at William, he said, “Sir, it’s me. Sophia and I are good pals.”
William was stunned, and Mrs. Constance, who was on the side, shot up as well. “Logan? Why are you here?”
William and Mrs. Constance knew very well what sort of person Logan was—a total b*stard. Old Mr. Jefferson had sired four daughters, and Logan was his only son, so naturally, Logan was treated like a prince.
As he grew up, Logan grew more and more deviant. He had now opened his own club, and rumor had it that there were all sorts of barely legal activities carried out in the club, so it had been reported several times to the police. If it weren’t for the Jeffersons’ wealth and backers being able to handle him, the family would sooner or later be ruined by him.
Before this, William had prohibited John from frequently coming into contact with Logan, but even though Logan was not dependable, the Jeffersons were indeed good backers. The four Jefferson girls had all found good husbands. Although the heir of the Jefferson Family was unreliable, his four elder sisters managed the company in an orderly manner.
Therefore, despite the fact that many people looked down on Logan, they still did not dare to face him head-on, for he had a bad temper and was likely to do anything when pushed; he would even quarrel with his father face to face. He had a good background, so naturally, no one would dare to provoke him.
Mrs. Constance looked at Logan. “How did you and Sophia become friends? Did you two meet through John?”
Sophia didn’t speak; she simply put on a faint smile.
Logan glared at Mrs. Constance. “Madam, what do you mean by that? John had nothing to do with Sophia and I meeting each other. I have a better relationship with Sophia than I do with John. I mean, look at John…” Logan grew more excited as he spoke. “He won’t do anything fun with me. He’s completely different from me, but Sophia on the other hand…” Then, he turned his head and looked at Sophia. “Sophia’s character is just like mine, and I like it!”
Sophia clicked her tongue. “Alright, enough already. Stop with the act. You know very well what your reputation is like.”
