Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 535

Sophia pursed her lips. “Are you sure?”

I didn't feel secure in the slightest. John hadn’t given me anything during the marriage that lasted less than one year.

Robin waited for Logan to leave before coming over. “Sophia, why do I feel like you’re repulsed whenever someone brings up Mr. Constance?”

Sophia didn't turn her head but continued looking outside. “Do you think John is good?”

Taken aback, Robin laughed sheepishly. “I don't have much contact with him, so I can't say whether he is good or not. But I think that he should be a very reliable person.”

Sophia sighed. “That’s because you aren’t married to him, so you’ve only seen his other side.”

When you’ve really married him and considered him your husband, you’ll feel differently.

The shop was less busy for the rest of the day. In the evening, when the shop closed, Sophia allowed Robin to leave first as she sat inside the shop.

To her, there was no difference between being here and being home. Both places belonged to her after all.

Sophia sat by the window, and her mind somewhat empty as she looked off into the distance. She felt fulfilled after such a busy day, but she had only sat for a moment when someone came into the shop.

Sophia opened her mouth, wanting to say that the shop was closed for the day, but when she saw the person who came in, she swallowed her words back.

It was none other than Isabelle.

Sophia felt that she wasn’t here to have a bite.

After all, the Bailey Corporation was quite far from here. Right now should be the time when employees get off work, so logically, Isabelle should still be at the company. It was a little unreasonable for her to come all the way here just to eat something in Sophia’s shop.

Sophia simply sat there and didn't move. After entering, Isabelle stood at the door and first looked at the layout of the shop, and then turned her head to look at Sophia.

Smiling, Isabelle asked, “Are you closed?”

Sophia nodded. “Yeah, the sign has been put up.”

Naturally, Isabelle saw the sign as well. Still, she smiled and came to sit down across from Sophia. “I see that you’re living quite the life.”

Sophia leaned back in her chair, turned her head, and looked outside. “My life has always been pretty good.”

“I suppose so.” Isabelle nodded. “During your divorce, John gave you so much money. Naturally, you’ll have a good life.”

Chuckling, Sophia answered, “Apart from during the divorce, John also gave me a lot of money even after the divorce.”

Isabelle’s lips quirked up as she always did and commented, “I heard that John was the one who got people to renovate this shop.”

Sophia tutted. “Don't always say that you’ve heard something. Just say that you found out about it. One should always be more honest.”

Bursting into laughter, Isabelle said, “Miss Gwendolyn, you’re always so straightforward. I can’t even be a little more discreet.”

Sophia shrugged. “I do have this bad habit. Sorry, I can't fix it.”

Sighing, Isabelle said, “Then I'll tell you the truth. I’ve actually wanted to come over and have a look myself for a long time now, but I have been very busy recently. Now that I finally have time today, I wanted to see what Miss Gwendolyn can do. Looking at this place, I think it’s pretty good. In fact, it’s better than I expected.”

Sophia raised her eyebrows. “Oh? Please elaborate on what you had expected.”

Isabelle spoke without holding back, “Well, Miss Gwendolyn, I heard that you didn’t receive much education, so I thought that you wouldn’t understand much about business. But when I think about it, I guess that one doesn’t need much professional knowledge to open a shop and sell things. As long as you know how to serve people, you’re good to go. So, it’s normal that you’re doing well here.”

Laughing, Sophia slowly tapped on the table with a hand. “I'll be honest with you. I'm not very good at doing business, but my shop is doing very well. Do you know why? It’s not because I have a high table turnover rate. It’s because I have two major customers.”
