Sophia then replied, “Ian will be here soon.”
That caused Logan to sit up instantly. “Which means that John is the only one left. Quick, call him and
ask him to come over now. My poker table can no longer wait.” He was obviously excited. While
speaking, he suddenly stood up and headed into the room. “I’ll wash up and will be back soon.”
Sophia quickly said, “I’m not joining. If you want to have a game, invite the players yourself.”
With a pause, Logan turned back to look at Sophia, “Hey, you…” Despite that, Logan quickly went into
the room, leaving the door open. Through the door, Sophia saw that Logan took his phone and dialed a
number. After a while, the call was answered and it was followed by Logan’s loud voice. “John, come
over to my house. It so happens that everyone is free and there’s one more seat left today.” While
saying, Logan looked at Sophia.
Sophia couldn’t hear John’s reply. At this time, Logan added quickly, “Today’s Sunday, right? You’re not
working either. Come on, it has been some time since we last sat together and played poker.” With that,
he stopped in front of Sophia and turned on the loudspeaker, allowing her to hear John’s reply.
On the other end, John said, “I’m not free today so I can’t make it.” As soon as he said that, Isabelle’s
voice came from the other side, “John, try this. It’s delicious.”
Logan was stunned. Gaping, he turned to look at Sophia. Although Sophia was startled, her expression

John gave a vague reply. “I’m outside.” That answer was equivalent to not answering at all. After
pausing for a few seconds, he continued, “I’m attending to some matters here. Let’s talk later.” With
that, he hung up.
Logan looked at Sophia, his mouth hanging open. “What’s going on with your man? Wasn’t that
Isabelle’s voice just now?”
Sophia nodded, looking innocent. “I believe so.”
Eyebrows furrowed, he asked. “What’s your man doing with Isabelle? Isn’t today a rest day? They
shouldn’t be meeting each other.”
Sophia even smiled. “I’m not sure either so I can’t answer even if you ask me.”
“You don’t know?” Logan was surprised to hear that.
Sophia couldn’t explain to him in detail because things were too complicated between John and her. At
that moment, Ian arrived as well. He rushed up the stairs and the first thing he saw was a shirtless
Logan and Sophia, who was sitting on the sofa. Knitting his eyebrows, Ian said, “Logan, put on your
shirt now.”
For Logan, nothing was more important than poker. Therefore, when Ian came, the man immediately
forgot what had happened earlier. Instantly, he smiled widely. “Give me a moment; I’ll go wash up first.
We’ll just call a waiter over to fill in the players to make the game work.” With that, he quickly went into
the room.
Ian came over and sat opposite Sophia. After staring at her, he asked, “You look pale. Are you alright?”
Sophia replied with a smile, “I’m fine.”
Ian continued to stare at Sophia but didn’t ask anything. It wasn’t long before Logan changed into some
comfort wear and walked out after washing himself up. “Come on, I’ve set up the poker cards.”
Sophia stood up first and said, “Let’s go then.” Since she was giving her full collaboration, Ian didn’t say
anything else. Logan then called a waiter over to fill in. Since he hadn’t eaten, he instructed them to
make some food as well.
Meanwhile, Sophia sat beside the poker table while staring at Logan.
