Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 527

Sophia chuckled, with an awkward expression on her face. “It’s not like that. I just had something I wanted to ask him.”

Keeping the photo album, Kate stared at John and Sophia. “You two knew each other previously, am I right?”

Sophia opened her mouth slightly but didn’t know what to say.

Instead, John, who was sitting next to her, replied, “Yeah. We knew each other from way back. We are quite close to each other as well.”

Sophia turned and gave John a look. Was that last sentence really necessary?

Hearing the young man’s explanation, Kate nodded. “That’s what I thought. I figured that you two knew each other for a long time already since you guys looked really comfortable with each other.”

Sophia didn’t say anything besides smiling awkwardly.

Suddenly, Kate thought of something and sighed. “It’s too bad that John is married. If not, I would have set you two up. You two really look suitable for each other sitting here together.”

Sophia was really awkward while John burst into laughter. “Really? Is that what you think?”

In a serious manner, Kate nodded. “It’s true. Since when have I ever lied to you? You guys really look suitable for each other.”

In a raspy voice, John chuckled before he leaned closer to Sophia. “Did you hear that?”

Sophia gave him a side look. “Shut it.”

However, John looked happy and had a slight smile on his face the entire day.

Kate started telling them about the Blackwells again, mainly wanting Sophia to know more about them.

John still didn’t know that Kate had Sophia be her granddaughter, so he only thought that she was introducing her family members to get on Sophia’s good side.

Hence, he helped Kate explain more about the family members and told Sophia some funny stories so she could remember them.

To be honest, Sophia wasn’t interested to know these people, and although they all looked excited to see her, who knew what they were thinking of her in the dark.

Since Kate treated her like a savior, the Main and Third Blackwell Family were probably fighting for her only to get on Kate’s good side.

Now that she was under the Third Blackwell Family, not to mention that the Young Master of the Third Blackwell Family didn’t like her, the Main and Second Blackwell Family would probably stop being nice to her anymore.

The thought of that made her head hurt.

Sophia could barely remember what Kate and John told her that day.

Finally, John suggested when he realized that the sky had turned dark, “It’s late already. We don’t want to get in the way of you resting, so I’ll send Sophia back.”

Kate initially wanted the Third Blackwell Family to send Sophia home, but she decided against it after seeing Fabian’s attitude during their meal just now.

Since Sophia and John knew each other, it would be better if John sent her back.

Kate looked outside. “Oh my, I didn’t even notice that it’s dark already. Time passes by real quick.” She sighed. “Alright. John will send you back then. Please come over more often when you’re free, Sophia.”

Sophia immediately agreed. “Alright, alright. Don’t be worried. I’ll be sure to visit you when I’m free.”

It was just that Sophia wasn’t free since she needed to guard her shop and didn’t have any extra time.

None of the Blackwells came out when John and Sophia left the Blackwell Residence.

Sophia sighed in relief, for it was better if she didn’t run into them as she really didn’t want to interact with these people.

When they entered John’s car, John saw the bangle on Sophia’s wrist when he lowered his gaze, after which he grinned. “It seems like the Blackwells really prioritizes you. This bangle looks expensive.”

Sophia immediately took the bangle off. “I’ve really regretted coming over today. I shouldn’t have come.”

John raised his eyebrows as he started the car engine. “Isn’t it good, though? I noticed that Kate was being really nice to you just now.”
