Chapter 500


    After Logan was told to wait with Sophia in the room, he silently walked away with her, seemingly


    reluctant to stay with those people any longer. Meanwhile, Logan’s men were still in the room, but they


    were all no longer in the mood to continue having fun as they quietly waited for the rest to return.


    As soon as Sophia got back to the room, she sat on the couch with her head lowered, feeling a hunch


    that Robin’s kidnap had something to do with her. Robin once told me that her social life is pretty


    simple because she only has a few friends. Furthermore, she didn’t usually go out due to her strict


    upbringing. In fact, I was the one who invited her to hang out those nights.


    Sophia racked her brain to figure out how Robin had gotten into trouble with anyone she might have


    crossed, but to no avail. Nheless, she was sure that this was a coordinated abduction, which she


    was partly responsible for. The more she dwelled on that, the greater the pain that she felt deep down.


    At the same time, Logan made a few phone calls in the room to have his men investigate Robin’s


    kidnap. I bet the vehicle’s registration number that we saw in the security footage was a fake one. Why


    would they use a real one and risk blowing their cover whenmitting a crime like this?


    While Sophia was waiting in the room, Zack soon came over with John, whose expression appeared


    calm and collected. Then, John told her that he had dispatched his men to search for Robin’s


    whereabouts just as the police were looking into the matter. Therefore, he believed it wouldn’t take long


    before the result was announced. With everyone’s mood ruined, Zack came over and said, “Let’s go


    home. It’s too noisy here, so we might as well wait for their news at home.”


    After grabbing everything they needed, everyone set off for Sophia’s ce to gather there, thinking that


    they could keep herpany since she was all alone by herself. While Sophia sat on her couch at


    home and waited for the news, Logan headed to the kitchen and got her some warm water. Cupping


    the ss of water in her hands, Sophia said, “The shirt Robin wore today is mine. We both have simr


    builds, so I reckoned she could juste here and wear one of my shirts.”

    Upon hearing that, John, Zack, and Logan turned around and stared at Sophia, but she didn’t meet


    their gazes. Instead, her eyes fell upon the kettle on the table as she said, “We took a cab to the


    karaoke just now, but on our way there, the driver asked whether there was anyone we might have


    crossed. I didn’t take his words seriously at that time, so I said no. Later, when we arrived at our


    destination, the driver told us to watch out for our own safety.”


    Logan stared at Sophia and asked, “Do you mean that this fe had been tailing youdies all along?”


    At that moment, John chipped in, “Are you saying that this guy was after you but mistook Robin for


    you?”


    “I don’t know whether I’m overreacting, but as I put the pieces together, this seems to be the most


    logical possibility to me,” Sophia closed her eyes and said.


    Meanwhile, John only stared at Sophia while wondering, If whoever did this was really after Sophia,


    then it must be someone whom she previously rubbed the wrong way, but there are only a few people


    who don’t really like her. Soon, John stood up and said, “I’m going to make a phone call.” Then, he


    stepped out of the house and stood in the courtyard, giving Matilda a call.


    A few secondster, the call was quickly answered as Matilda happily said, “Hey John, what’s up?”


    John paused briefly and replied, “I have some questions for you, and I hope you could be honest with


    me.”


    The man’s stern voice took Matilda aback. After a few seconds of silence, she sounded more serious.


    “What’s wrong, John? You sound scary.”


    John then took a deep breath and asked, “Did you send someone to mess with Sophia?”


    Confused, Matilda said, “What’re you talking about? Did you just say I sent someone to mess with


    Sophia? Did you hear this from her?”


    “No!” John added, “Something hase up with Sophia, and I just want to know whether you’re behind


    this. Tell me the truth.”
