However, John was not waiting at the front gate as he had claimed. When Sophia arrived at home, she found him seated in her living room, watching TV while waiting for her.
Her eyes bulged in disbelief at the scene. “How did you manage to get in?”
He pointed up at the second floor. “I’ve told you before to shut the balcony doors. But look, you never listen.”
At first, Sophia had decided to thank John when she met him. However, the idea went down the drain in the face of his trespassing. There was no point for her to thank him
anymore. With a sour face, she sat across him. “You were the one who sent me home last night? You didn’t do anything to me, did you?”
John chuckled. “Why? Are you disappointed? If you have any wish, just let me know. I can cooperate and help you with it right now.”
She frowned. “Can you be any more shameless than that?” Next, she checked with him by asking, “Did you see Ian last night?”
John was taken aback. “Ian? Why would you ask?”
Sophia briefly entertained a fleeting thought in her mind before saying, “Ian’s phone was shattered and left in front of my front door last night. Did you do that? You hit him?”
Moments later, he denied it. “Am I that type of man in your eyes?”
Yeah, you are. Sophia recalled that John had punched Ian in the face before on the second floor and the bruises took a few days to heal. John huffed, “No, I didn’t hit him.
Don’t worry. I actually get along fine with him.”

What nonsense! Sophia would never believe in that. Then, she stared at John with pursed lips and finally muttered, “Your attitude is quite okay today. Weren’t you quite
audacious last time?”
He could not help but snap back with a hint of mockery. “Was I as audacious as you?”
Indeed, they almost got into an ugly and messy fight that day, but in the end, he was the one who surrendered. In the next few days, Sophia lived her life as usual; he was the
only one who felt uncomfortable at the thought of their fight.
Now, John had finally let go of it. A woman like Sophia could not be dealt with by using harsh methods; only the soft and roundabout approach would work on her. No matter
how harsh he acted toward her, he could never win as she was much tougher than him.
Her rebellious streak now was as strong as her obedient behavior from before, and he had to admit that he could not handle it. Anyway, the thought of Ian’s face last night
made him feel satisfied for having gotten his revenge. Then, he suggested, “Sophia, can we get along peacefully and never fight again?”
This was probably the first time in Young Master John’s life that he lowered his dignity to persuade someone, but she merely bursted out in laughter. “I have never wanted to
fight with you; I am too lazy for that. It was you who crossed the line.”
Not wanting to reason with her, John took the blame and nodded. “Sure, sure. It was my fault. My fault.” He had taken advantage of her last night anyway, so it was nothing to
let her win a verbal fight.
Feeling that she had run out of things she wanted to say to him, and she never had anything important to tell him in the first place, she stood up and told him, “Alright. I don’t
have anything else to say. You can leave now.”
He broke into a smile. “Cook some pasta for me, please? I haven’t had lunch. Just think of it as repaying me for sending you home last night.”
This dude! One would normally act shamelessly for only once and quit out of self-respect, but a person who would act shamelessly for more than once was destined to be a
repeated offender. To Sophia, John was obviously heading down the path of a repeated offender.
Staring straight at him for a while, she went into the kitchen to put together a dish for him. Pasta was easy to prepare. She even had the same thing for breakfast that
morning and she had all the ingredients ready.
Cheese, beef meatballs and greens were the standard, must-have ingredients in her pasta. She had some homemade salad in the fridge as well, which she took out and
served in the dining hall.
John walked over and glanced at the spread that looked familiar. Across him, Sophia took her seat and texted Logan to check if he had found Ian.
It didn’t take long for Logan to reply. According to him, Ian was now with Lorraine in a discussion about the talent show, probably going over some details. He also added that
he had asked Ian about the phone, but Ian said he was unaware that the phone had slipped out, thinking that he had somehow misplaced it instead.
