Chapter 46

Sophia was taken aback. Then, she looked up at Zack. “She came knocking on his door?”

Zack nodded solemnly. “Do you remember the time I answered the call from your ex-husband? At the
time, that woman was standing outside his door and dressed very lightly. That clearly indicates that she
was offering herself to him! However, your ex-husband was rather calm in that situation—he didn’t lose
his cool. Then, guess what happened…”

He kept her in suspense, staring at her with a mysterious expression.

After mulling over it briefly, she decided to give in and play along. “What happened?”

Widening his eyes, he answered, “That woman confessed to your ex-husband! She claimed that she
had loved him for a long time. Still, your ex-husband wasn’t moved at all. He told the other party that he
was in a loving relationship with his wife.” Naturally, that statement was something he made up. Then,
he continued, “When that woman heard that, she flew into a rage and claimed that your ex-husband
had been drugged. Moreover, she accused him of having relations with another woman. If this matter
were to spread, your ex-husband’s reputation would be ruined.” He continued spinning his nonsensical
story with a serious expression. “However, your ex-husband laughed in her face. He admitted to being
drugged but claimed that he had been with his wife. His wife! Would you believe that? That sounds
so…”

That sounds so… what? She was tempted to ask. Still, she swallowed the words on the tip of her
tongue when she saw the exaggerated expression on his face.

He continued to stare at her as he said, “Let me be honest with you… Under the influence of those
drugs, a man would lose his mind to lust. Under those circumstances, he wouldn’t be picky. Any



woman would do; it didn’t matter who it was. However, take a look at your ex-husband! He withstood
the entire ordeal by force of will alone! That’s not easy to accomplish!”

She paused for a moment. Then, she got off the bed, walked over to the window, and looked at the
weather outside. It was very sunny outside and the sun was blisteringly hot. However, she felt cold for
some reason. Moreover, she had no idea where this chilling wind in her heart came from.

I’m certain most of what Zack said was exaggerated. Still, the part about that woman offering herself to
John is probably true.

After that, Sophia did not continue the conversation. A long while passed before she said, “I’m feeling a
little hungry. I’m going to get a bite downstairs.”

Following her lead, Zack stood up and changed the topic. “Is your stomach feeling unwell? Did you skip
breakfast?”

For her to change the topic, that probably meant that she had taken what he said to heart. It was
enough as long as she listened and considered what he said seriously. To him, it was already half the
battle won.

In response, she closed her eyes. It was true that she had skipped breakfast because she didn’t have
an appetite.

Thus, he hurriedly said, “Let’s quickly go and eat then. I’ll go with you.”

“Why are you going with me?” She was a little sick of him.



On the other hand, he replied earnestly, “If I don’t go with you, who knows what kinds of food you’d
order? I’m telling you; you have a weak stomach. So, you should be eating something lighter. You can’t
take things like these lightly!”

She chuckled. After staring at him for a long while, she relented. “Fine. Let’s go.”

Zack may be rather unreliable, but he does treat me very well.

Following that, they walked out of her room. As they were heading to the elevator, Zack quickly ran
over to John’s room and swiftly knocked on the door. Without waiting for John to open his door, he
yelled, “Boss, Sophia and I are going downstairs for lunch! Why don’t you join us? You haven’t had
lunch yet, right?”

Sophia stood there; her expression sank as she glared at Zack.

I shouldn’t have been so quick to feel touched. This person was only pretending to care about me.
Truthfully, he just wants to bring John and me back together!

Still, there was something she couldn’t quite understand—Zack seemed to have some sort of
obsession with the relationship between John and her.

John opened the door and looked at Zack. Then, he immediately glanced at Sophia, who was about to
walk into the elevator. To her surprise, he didn’t reject the invitation. On the contrary, he, in an
unprecedented occurrence, agreed to join them.

As the corridor was relatively empty, she heard his reply as clear as day. She froze in her tracks but did
not turn around.



However, she couldn’t help recalling what Zack said just now. That woman came knocking on John’s
door.

If John had agreed to it at the time, I wonder what situation we would be in right now. As that thought
crossed her mind, her strides became longer.

Offering herself to him? What a joke.

Sophia waited by the elevator. Subsequently, John and Zack came over together.

John was expressionless. As usual, he had strict control over his facial expressions.

On the other hand, Zack was grinning widely. “Since none of us have eaten yet, we might as well eat
lunch together.”

Everybody else ignored him. After smiling to himself for a while, he began to feel a little awkward too.
So, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

The restaurant was on the first floor. When John and Sophia entered, there were quite a lot of people
inside. However, they could still find seats.

Zack nudged Sophia and pointed to a corner. “Why don’t you two go over and take a seat? I’m going to
check out the self-service buffet over there.”

Without looking at one another, Sophia and John walked toward the spot Zack pointed at.



The table was located in a relatively quiet corner.

At first, Sophia and John sat opposite each other. Picking up the menu, he suddenly got up and sat by
her side.

She was shocked and turned her head to stare at him.

However, John was expressionless as he lowered his head to read the menu. In a soft voice, he said,
“Don’t move. Let’s order.”

The gears in Sophia’s head turned. Then, she more or less understood what was going o
