Chapter 398


    The peace was too unsettling, which felt inexplicably weird to Sophia. John was giving her the silent


    treatment again as usual, but this wasn’t like any other time. This time, they were cutting all ties.


    Sophia thought this was fine, for they woulde to this sooner orter. Given their rtionship, it was


    best if they had no more contact. The sooner we cut ties, the better.


    True to his word, John didn’te anymore, while Logan kept pestering Sophia these couple of days.


    He wanted her to go with him to a birthday banquet.


    Sophia’s first reaction was of rejection. With how things stood now, she couldn’t attend an event like


    that publicly. Any event Logan took part in would also invite other powerful people or public figures.


    She didn’t know them, but they might know her. If she were to go with Logan and someone recognized


    her as John’s ex-wife, it’d be awkward for everyone.


    However, Logan didn’t think that much. He told her he didn’t like events like that either, but his dad


    insisted on taking him there for some experience. Refusing to be killed by boredom, he wanted to bring


    Sophia along; at least she could provide some fun.


    Sophia bought that excuse the first time, but now it annoyed her. “Your dad’s right.” She nodded. “You


    should be going around more. Don’t just y poker or chess all day. Go out. Have an adventure.”


    After his first attempt’s failure, Logan started pleading. “Aw, can’t you juste with me? Lil’ old me


    here’s going to get bored alone.”


    Sophia could imagine how Logan looked right now, pouting as he pleaded with her to go with him, his


    gold chain dangling. Godd*mmit, that’s disgusting.


    She was about to stop him, but then Logan started talking normal. That style of speaking disgusted him


    too. “I know what you’re worried about, but just be you. You don’t have to care what everyone thinks. I


    mean, everyone hates me, but that doesn’t stop me from being happy. I can do whatever I want, and

    nobody can stop me. If they think I’m annoying, they can piss off.”


    Sophia stopped herself from talking, waiting for Logan to continue. When he did, he said, “That divorce


    was not your fault. You don’t have to be scared of them. Just tell them to f*ck off if they don’t like you.


    Those *ssholes are just jealous.”


    When she heard that, sheughed. Logan didn’t mince his words, but Sophia thought he had a point.


    Logan decided that Sophia would go with him now that she wasn’t refusing the invitation. “So that


    settles it. I’ll get you the dress. You don’t have to do anything. Just go with me, and we’ll crash the


    party.”


    Then, he hung up.


    Sophia wasn’t worried about attending events like this, for she went with John once. The only reason


    for her reluctance was her worry of being recognized, but there was nothing to be concerned about.


    Now that Sophia had thought it through, she stopped dwelling on this matter.


    After days of not contacting Ian, she wondered how he was faring in hispany. She had nothing to


    do after dinner, so Sophia called him, but to her surprise, Ian was on an appointment. Even though she


    had a wild imagination, Sophia couldn’t imagine how Ian was like in this scenario. He had always been


    soft-spoken, which made it impossible for her to see him talking loudly. That was like imagining John as


    a gentle, warm man, and Logan as a mild-mannered guy.
