As such, she cleaned up and went to the shop to monitor the progress. It so happened that Zack was there too. Unaware of what had happened, he was shocked when he saw Sophia. “You didn’t even bother to conceal the dark circles under your eyes?”
Sophia took out the sunglasses from her bag. “How about this? Can you still see the dark circles?”
Zack laughed. “What’s wrong? What sneaky things did you do last night, causing yourself to be in such a mess?”
Sophia sighed. “Nothing. I just didn’t sleep well.” She really didn’t feel like explaining the details. Fortunately, Zack didn’t probe her further.
The both of them stood at the door, listening to the noises from the work of the renovation workers. After a while, Sophia took her phone out and noticed she had received a message on WhatsApp. It was from Ian, asking if she was feeling better. Sophia quickly replied that she was fine.
Ian then replied saying that he would be going to Logan’s and he invited her along. Looking at the time, Sophia accepted his invitation since there wasn’t any serious problem in the renovations and the progress even seemed fast. Even if she stayed, there was nothing she could do to help out.
After informing Zack, Sophia took a taxi to Logan’s. However, Logan was still sleeping soundly in the clubhouse’s room. The staff of the clubhouse recognized Sophia so once she arrived, the staff quickly informed Logan. Half asleep, Logan walked out from the room. This time, he didn’t even wear his pajamas, walking out half naked, his hair messy. His eyes were half opened and he stared at Sophia for a long time before recognizing her. “Oh, it’s you, Sophia.”
Sophia was rather disgusted by how he looked. “Logan, what did you do last night? Why do you look like you’ve been tortured?”
