Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 404


Sophia felt vexed. Before she went to meet him, she asked the waiter to wake him up, for she didn’t want to see him naked. After being woken up and told about her arrival, Logan looked confused, but he put it aside. He wore some shirt and came out, his feet bare, his hair unkempt. “What brings you here, Sophia?”

Sophia sat cross-legged on the sofa. “The dresses. You sent the pictures to me last night, so I’m here to pick one.”

“Oh, but the dresses are still in the shop. I got the pictures from the manager. Give me a minute. I’ll take you there after I brush myself up.”

Before Sophia could say anything, Logan went back up. It didn’t take long for him to come back down in new clothes, though his gold chain remained around his neck. Sophia clicked her tongue. “You never go out without that, huh?”

Logan prized his gold chain. “You won’t understand. Let’s go.” He brought Sophia to a haute couture boutique that was classier than the one John brought her to, but it didn’t have the same atmosphere.

The manager knew Logan, so he quickly welcomed them when they arrived.

Logan put on airs as he said, “Take everything you showed me last night here.”

The manager said yes and asked his staff to move all the dresses here. There were a lot to choose from, and all of them were showcased on mannequins. Before the staff managed to move all the mannequins, someone in the lobby said, “Please come with me, Miss Bailey.”

The Bailey name always caught Sophia’s attention no matter where she was. She reflexively turned to look at the lobby, and in came two women led by the staff. This was the VIP room, which meant only special individuals could come. And she’s a Bailey. Yep, must be Isabelle.

A few moments later, Isabelle and her mother came in with the staff. They were shocked to see Sophia and Logan, their expressions stiffening up.

Sophia and Isabelle were involved in the earlier scandal, but their identities were different; Sophia was John’s wife, while Isabelle was seen as a mistress. Thanks to the rumors that spread, Isabelle looked awkward whenever she met Sophia.

On the other hand, Sophia gave Isabelle one calm glance and looked back. After everything was shown before her, she pointed at a black dress. “This one, please.” The manager looked surprised, and he looked at Isabelle.

Before Isabelle could say anything, her mother said, “Mr. Ronald, we came here first yesterday. I believe we told you this one’s nice.”

Sophia looked at Mrs. Bailey. “Same here. And I said everything’s nice.” She grinned at her. “If we go by your logic, does that mean I’ve reserved everything here?”

Logan chimed in, “Mr. Ronald, I believe I clearly said all of these are fine, right?”

Indeed, Logan had said this the day before. Sophia hadn’t decided on the dress, so he said all of them were fine, but they would only make the decision on this day. Joseph Ronald, the manager, looked troubled, but he nodded. “Yes. You did say so, Mr. Jefferson.”

Mrs. Bailey looked vexed.

Sophia smiled at Isabelle. “Oh, you like this too, Miss Bailey?” So we have the same tastes both in fashion and men.
