Chapter 13


    Now John looked back at Sophia. He was wearing an aloha shirt today. The cor was unbuttoned,


    revealing his corbone underneath. Instead of his neatlybed hair, he was sporting a casual


    hairstyle today. John was mostly the aloof type, but now he looked more approachable.


    Sophia noticed his look from the corner of her eye, but she kept on watching the show on the stage.


    John stared at her for a few moments, then he looked back at the stage. Hispanion looked at her


    too, but as a rival. Naturally.


    Women are always hostile to their own. However, she rxed after hearing the man calling Sophia his


    girlfriend. Zack was shocked to hear that, then he red at Sophia, though she ignored him.


    She didn’t care what was going on on the stage, for her mood was ruined when John came here. After


    finishing her wine, she refilled it.


    The bottle was near her, and when she went to take it, John looked at the bottle, but he said nothing.


    After watching the show for a bit, John’spanion huddled together with him and mumbled


    something.


    John leaned slightly toward hispanion, though his eyes didn’t leave the stage. A whileter, the


    woman chuckled, while John smiled vaguely.


    Sophia tried to not look at them, but even so, their interaction annoyed her. It was easy pretending they


    didn’t know each other, but she was still unsettled by this. She looked somewhere else in an attempt to


    distract herself.


    The sea unfurled itself before her, its waves crashing onto the ivory sands of the beach. She had never


    seen the sea in its true glory before, but thanks to her divorce, now she had the cash toe here.


    The beach was getting rowdier after the waiters started serving the grilled meat to everyone. Some


    guests’ dancing soul was lit up, so they performed around the bonfire. The man beside Sophia leaned


    closer. “Wanna grill some meat? Taking part yourself makes you feel aplished.”


    Sophia nced at him. “I prefer to have it already cooked. I’mzy, after all.”


    John suddenly chuckled. The waves should have covered it, and it wasn’t too loud either, but Sophia


    heard it. It stung her, reminding her of what he used to say.


    Johnined about her skills in bed, saying she was toozy and passive about it. He only blurted


    that out whenever he was drunk, though.

    Sophia closed her eyes. It’s pointless thinking about that. She stood up. “Why don’t we go and take a


    look?”


    The man smiled and stood up. “Let’s go, then.” He thought Zack had a thing for Sophia, so he wanted


    to leave this ce.


    When they came to the bonfire, the hotel staff quickly handed them some meat skewers, but Sophia


    didn’t take them. “I’ll just watch.”


    The man took it though. “I’ll do it. I’ll grill it for you.”


    “How should I call you?” Sophia looked back at him.


    The man smiled. “Trevor Cohen. Just call me Trevor. I might have been a bit rude talking to that guy. I


    hope you didn’t mind.”


    Sophia knew he was talking about him saying he was her boyfriend. “It’s fine.” She shook her head,


    since nobody would believe it either.


    Zack kept staring at them. A few momentster, he approached John. “Boss, the madam is—” John


    nced at him, and he changed his tune. “Sophia is such a slut!” Zack said angrily.
