Chapter 204


    Upon reading through the contract once again, Zack reassured Sophia that all was well, as everything


    that needed to be amended was amended. Thus, Sophia signed it without hesitation. Meanwhile, Robin


    sat behind the counter silently without even acknowledging Mr. Reyes. Thetter knew why she was


    behaving like that, as he swindled a lot of her money.


    There were two copies of the contract, which would belong to the respective parties after both of them


    signed and put down their thumbprint. Thendlord left after all was done, but Sophia wasn’t able to


    leave due to the heavy downpour, thus she sat in the shop.

    She was feeling more relieved after the contract was signed, but Robin had a hard time staying still.


    After a while, she suggested to Sophia, “Let’s go have some fun after the rain stops. Seeing the


    stroll outside.”


    Sophia was sitting by the window while staring into the distance when she replied, “Sure.” Her phone


    buzzed as soon as she said so, a calling in from Ian, which she picked up immediately.


    His voice sounded a littlenguid through the call as he asked, “Where are you?”


    After a pause, she replied, “I’m outside.”


    A chuckle could be heard through the call. “Alone?”


    “Nope.” Sophia turned to look at Robin. “I’m with a friend.”


    Ian heaved a sigh before asking, “Would you like to meet up? I’m with a friend as well, so we can get to


    know each other.”


    Did he just say he’s with a friend? He used to tell me he had none! Such were her thoughts as she


    turned to look at Robin while asking for her opinion by mouthing at her.


    Thetter quickly got out from behind the counter as she nodded. “Sure, let’s go.”


    After Sophia gave a reply in the affirmative, the two of them closed the shop before hailing a cab to go


    to the location designated by Ian without even waiting for the rain to stop. It was a clubhouse, which


    was practically empty during the day. Ian was waiting for them at the entrance when they arrived, then


    he greeted Robin politely before saying, “Come on, let’s go inside.”


    It was Sophia’s first time visiting a ce like that, so she questioned curiously while they walked, “What


    brings you here?”


    Ian responded with a smile. “A friend of mine owns this ce. It’s been a while since Ist dropped by,


    so I decided to visit this ce today.”


    With an arched brow, Sophia asked, “Who is this rich friend of yours?”


    Ian’s response was one of resignation. “He’s the only friend I know.”


    Aside from a number of attendants walking around, there weren’t a lot of guests in the clubhouse. Ian


    led them to the second floor, which consisted of a lounging area and an entertainment zone.


    They entered one of the rooms which was slightlyrger than the others, with a gaming machine


    located on one side of the room, while a table for ying poker was set on the other side. The table


    was upied by a few people, including a man in pajamas and slippers who was tidying up the


    scattered cards on the table.


    Ian greeted the man as soon as he entered. “Logan, my friends are here.”


    Upon lifting his head, Logan Jefferson examined Sophia with a shrewd gaze as he waved his hand at


    them. “I was in a predicament, but it seems your timely arrival has solved the problem for me! Come


    on, let’s have a go!”


    Ian knew that Logan was addicted to gambling, especially with poker. With much resignation, he turned


    to look at Sophia and Robin. “Do you two know how to y?”


    Sophia was a little hesitant. “Not really. I have only ever watched people y.”


    Robin was very much the same as she mumbled, “Me too. I only know a little.”


    However, Logan seemed to not be affected by their attitude as he motioned for them toe over.


    “Come on over. It’s alright if you don’t know how to y the game. I can teach you!”
