Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 567


Thinking about it, Sophia couldn’t help but grin, as it was a good thing to be in love.

Falling in love is a good thing, though I wonder what kind of person Robin is attracted to.

By the time Sophia reached home, it was already noon, so she got changed and prepared a meal for herself.

Just then, her phone rang when she was about to serve her meal onto the dining table.

Glancing at her phone, the number was a local but unknown number. After thinking about it, Sophia picked up the call.

It was rather noisy on the other side of the call. “Sophia?”

“Um… Who’s there?”

Chuckling, the person answered, “It’s me—your brother.”

Startled, Sophia jeered, “What do you mean ‘my brother’? I say, are you drunk?”

There seemed to be several people there, as there was a roar of laughter, followed by the person explaining, “Indeed, we’re a little tipsy. Can you come over? I can’t go home now. Hurry up a bit.”

Suspecting that it was only a prank from a drunkard, Sophia hung up.

Not long later, her phone rang again.

Feeling her anger spiking, Sophia picked up once more and scolded, “If you have a problem, you should call the cops! Stop calling me! Otherwise, I’ll call the cops on you.”

With a titter, the person said, “Sophia, I’m Fabian.”

Dumbfounded for a moment, Sophia asked, “Who? Fabian Blackwell? How did you get my number?”

Leaning against the car with its engine smoking, Fabian urged, “Can you come over for a bit? Something happened here.”

Once he hung up the phone, he sent his location to Sophia. He narrowed his eyes as he stared at the screen.

On Sophia’s end, she hesitated as she held her phone, but after a long while, she still went to clean up and went out.

According to the address that was sent by Fabian, that place was situated on the National Highway.

Fabian was involved in a car accident, and the bumper of his car was badly damaged.

When Sophia got there, Fabian was seen sitting by the road side, and he looked as if he was taking a nap.

Some traffic police were there taking pictures and performing their duties. Meanwhile, the person whose car was hit looked kind of frustrated. Also, beside the traffic police stood a man who appeared rather anxious.

Dashing toward Fabian, Sophia asked, “What were you thinking? Driving under the influence of alcohol? Are you out of your mind?”

Opening his eyes slowly, Fabian said groggily, “I wasn’t driving.”

Seeing that, the traffic police walked over and inquired about Sophia’s identity.

Chuckling, Fabian replied, “This is my sister. If there’s anything important, you can speak to her. And about that…” Pointing toward the man who looked anxious, Fabian continued, “That man there, he can leave now. It’s fine. I can handle the compensation here.”

Hearing that, the man rushed over to thank Fabian.

Waving his hands, Fabian advised, “Be careful when you drive next time.”

After bowing toward Fabian, the man left.

Not knowing what had happened, Sophia asked, “Who’s that person?”

Knowing that Fabian was under the influence of alcohol, the traffic police was kind enough to explain the whole incident in his stead.

The man who just left was a temporary driver whom Fabian had just hired to drive him home, as he was under the influence of alcohol. However, the driver made a quick turn and bumped into another car by accident.

Glancing at Fabian, Sophia heaved a sigh of relief. “Alright, we'll bear the responsibility and admit our mistakes.”

Nonetheless, they still had to drop by the police station to sign some papers, but with Fabian in this state, he couldn't possibly make his way there.

On the other hand, Sophia needed to take care of Fabian, so she couldn't go too.

Agreeing with the traffic police's arrangement, Sophia would send Fabian home, whereas the car would be towed away by a tow truck.

Drawing himself closer toward Sophia, Fabian said, "Please keep this from my family."

Considering the fact that he was still conscious enough to ask Sophia to keep this from his family, she guessed he wasn’t that drunk after all.

Having no other way, Sophia brought Fabian to her own home.

From the looks of it, Fabian seemed quite sober, but as soon as they reached Sophia’s house, Fabian saw the couch and fell asleep on it in no time.
