Still, nothing was for sure. It could be possible that they wouldn’t have any chance to meet each other again, as
Ian’s schedule would be packed if he got signed by an agency after a successful debut.
Logan, who was standing next to them, patted Ian’s shoulder. “Work harder and come back as a champion to show
those losers in your family what you’re capable of achieving.”
Ian smirked at that. “I’ll try my best.”
Finally, when he was about to enter the car, Logan asked, “Did your mother try to contact you? I mean, you’re quite
famous now, so she probably saw your competition.”
Ian paused before turning around to Logan and nodded. “Yeah. She did contact me, but she didn’t say much. She
just told me to do well and don’t be too harsh on myself so that I’ll feel better no matter what result I might end up
with.”
Logan started lamenting, “To be honest, she still cares about you.”
Ian hummed in agreement. “I’m planning to visit her after my competition.”
By then, it was almost time for Ian to leave.
After taking a last glance at Sophia, he lowered his gaze to her stomach and said, “I’ll be leaving now. Remember to
take care of your body.”
Sophia didn’t know why, but she suddenly felt reluctant.
She’d gone to send Ian off for his competition the last time as well.

However, she was filled with hope at that time.
Sophia and Logan stood in silence as they watched Ian’s car drive away.
Then, Logan tutted. “To be honest, it would be nice if you end up together with Ian.”
Sophia gave Logan a side-eye. “Shut up.”
What did he take me for?
She can make her own choice, alright?
The two of them headed back to Logan’s clubhouse. However, Logan received a phone call before they could even
sit down.
Sophia couldn’t clearly hear what the person on the other end of the call was talking about, but she knew that
something bad had happened from Logan’s facial expression.
Immediately, Logan stood up and started cursing before he told them to wait and that he would go over to kill those
fools himself.
Seeing that he was leaving, Sophia gave him a look. “You should go do your things now. I’ll be fine here.”
Then, Logan nodded and rushed out without even having the chance to say anything.
Sophia was left alone at Logan’s clubhouse. She’d initially thought that Logan would return soon, but he didn’t.
So, she ended up contacting Matilda, asking her to come over to Logan’s clubhouse to play poker together and got
two other people to join them.
Matilda was quick to agree, saying that she would be there as soon as possible.
Suddenly, Sophia gasped. “What happened to you? Why do you suddenly sound like a teenage girl in love?”
Matilda snapped, “Don’t be silly! Don’t you know how old I am?”
Instead of answering, Sophia started giggling. “You’re a middle-aged woman in love, then.”
During the afternoon, John contacted his underling and told him that the car that was tailing him yesterday was
found, but they had no choice but to allow the car owner to leave as he didn’t have any concrete evidence.
Since John’s underling had been working with him for a while now, he obviously knew what to do next.
That night, they followed the lead and continued investigating the car’s driver and found something.
The driver had a criminal record where he was jailed for a period of time for engaging in fisticuffs a few years back.
There was also something suspicious about this case.
According to some, it was a fisticuff; however, others claimed that an illegal transaction happened and got raided,
so these people said that it was a fisticuff so that things wouldn’t get out of hand.
Rumors wouldn’t just spread without any reason, and John was willing to believe that these rumors indicated that
something wasn’t right, so he got his underling to continue investigating what happened back then.
Right after he hung up, Dylan entered the place.
