But John thought that after what happened last night, those people inside should have run away as well.
Sophia nodded. “Okay, I get it.” She didn’t want to say any more, as her saying too much would cause John to feel
burdened.
The two sat on the bed and chatted for a while. Later, John got up to shower and went downstairs to eat. Sophia
hadn’t slept the whole night, so her head hurt a bit, and she didn’t have an appetite. Hence, she told John to go
down and tell the maid that she would only eat her breakfast later after a nap.
John knew that Sophia must have felt insecure for the entire night, so he didn’t force her either. As he stroked
Sophia’s hair, he said, “You take a good rest. Don’t worry about me, as the matter should be over soon.”
Can we please end it soon? Sophia really hated such a situation like this one.

relaxed. He told Sophia about the current situation of the shadow bank. Apparently, the shadow bank was closed
down for investigation, and many account books were found inside. Most of them contained the details of what they
had loaned out. The rest were their internal stolen accounts.
Narrowing her eyes, Sophia asked Logan, “So is that shadow bank completely destroyed now?”
Logan laughed aloud.
“Almost. I heard Lola say that the evidence is quite sufficient, and many people involved in it have been arrested.”
He heard Lola say it? Sophia picked up on that important point all at once. She asked, “So the relationship between
you and Lola has improved again, hasn’t it?” Logan made a hissing noise. “That is beside the point. Anyway, that
woman and I have formed an alliance. You know that. This time, the matter is so important that surely we both
have to abandon our previous grudges. But I still look down on her.” “She still looks down on you too,” Sophia
replied. Logan was at a loss for words for a long time. After pondering for a moment, Sophia continued to ask, “So,
what’s next at the shadow bank?” Seeing that she had changed the subject, Logan continued with what he intended
to tell her. “Just the existence of one contraband will cause the shadow bank to be closed down for investigation.
Now that some incriminating accounts have been found, the people involved would definitely be arrested. I heard
Lola say that there are quite a lot of people who are involved.” After a brief pause, he went on to say, “We caught
some people before. Their lips were sealed, and they had obviously communicated in advance, for they all sang the
same tune. It’s not easy to break through their defense, but these people who have just been caught are clearly
unprepared, so there could be a weak spot somewhere. We’re going to see if we can manage to expose the Bailey
Family.” Sophia replied, “Okay.

Then, I wish you all the best.” Her tone was not very enthusiastic, which surprised Logan on the other side. “What’s
wrong? I thought you would be curious and would like to know some internal news about the shadow bank.”
Smiling, Sophia said, “Forget it. I don’t want to know so much. The more I know, the more worried I’ll become, and
that won’t be good for the child in my womb. If I don’t know anything, I’ll live more happily.” What a major
enlightenment. Logan nodded. “Yes, you’re right. Okay, then I won’t disturb you any further. You have a good rest,
and when John and I are done settling these things, there will be nothing but golden days ahead of you.” When he
was about to hang up, Sophia quickly asked him, “By the way, how is your relationship with Miss Hunt?” Logan
couldn’t help but snort before uttering, “What do you mean? We have nothing to do with each other. Sophia, please
don’t talk nonsense. That woman is not a good match for me. You know that I regard her with contempt and I don’t
like her.”
