Chapter 189


    I should quit drinking, as all it ever does is put me into apromising situation. That totally sucks.


    After spending some time just sitting on the bed, she got off it deftly to check on her body in a mirror in


    the bathroom, and much to her delight, she noticed there were less marks on her body this time.


    She then saw the cold water in the tub fromst night, so she drained it while wearing a frown before


    filling it up with water again.


    While the tub was filling up, she retrieved her phone from the nightstand to give John a call, which


    connected after a moment. His voice came through as being calm while he asked, “Are you up?”


    “You’re the one I had sex withst night, am I right?” She drew a deep breath before questioning him in


    a tone which he could hardly decipher, and he wondered if she was disappointed.


    “Who else then?” His reply was brusque.


    “Alright, got it.” The call was hung up after she nodded. She then went into the bathroom after mulling


    over the situation. As shey in the tub, she went on trying her hardest to recall what happenedst


    night, but her memory failed her, as she couldn’t recall anything aside from a few details when she was


    having sex.


    A soft wail escaped her while she covered her face, as the fact that she had sex with John again


    weighed on her heavily. It didn’t make sense as she wanted to wipe the te clean between them.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.


    After spending a long while soaking in the tub, she had a change of clothes before taking the soiled


    bed sheets off to be washed, all the while averting her gaze from the sheet.


    She cooked herself a meal after cleaning the bathtub. Then, there was a message in her phone from


    Ian which asked if she was up. While it came early in the morning, Sophia never replied to it.


    Although she wanted to ask him what happenedst night—especially how she got home—that led up


    to her having sex with John, it was an impossible task no matter how shameless she was.


    After boiling herself some noodles, she sat down for a meal while staring at her phone as she


    wondered from whom she should ask for answers regarding what happenedst night. The noodles


    were finished before she went back up to lie down on bed.


    She figured that John didn’t get down too hard on her, as her body wasn’t sore despite her fatigue.


    While staring at the lights on the ceiling due to her having a hard time falling asleep, Sophia decided


    she would quit drinking, which would hopefully help her to abstain from sex.


    In the meantime, John was sitting in his office with his phone on the table, all the while spacing out as


    he leaned back in his seat. He was so engrossed in his own thoughts that he didn’t notice Zack’s arrival


    with a stack of documents in hand.


    When he saw the state his boss was in, he was in turn surprised. “Boss, we managed to suppress


    further online discussion regarding the matter, and the scandal concerning Infinity Group would soon


    break. You can consider the matter settled.”


    “Alright.” John returned to his senses before looking at Zack. Thetter blinked in confusion, as he


    assumed John was pondering about the matter which he had just reported on, but that didn’t seem to


    be the case.


    The documents were handed to John while Zack exined, “These are drafts of the contract prepared


    by the Baileys which you should look over before the public rtions team releases the news regarding


    our coboration with the Baileys.”


    The Baileys owned a bigpany, so their coboration could very much help to redeem the


    Constance’s image that was affected by the scandal. Upon taking the documents from Zack, John went


    through it roughly before replying, “I understand. I’ll inform you after I’ve confirmed that everything is


    fine.”


    “Is something bothering you, Boss? Why do you look a little distracted?” Zack stared at John even after


    his report ended.


    “It’s nothing… Nothing happened at all…” There was a few moments’ pause before John replied, to


    which Zack grunted in response as he nced at John. Then, he turned to leave.


    Meanwhile, John only managed to go through two pages of the document before he closed it back, as


    he had a hard time taking in what was written on it with his addled state of mind.
