Next One Is a Babe -
Chapter 851
Logan sniggered and answered, "Wow! 'Wise words'! 'Wise words'! What else can I say? I feel as if I'm back to those old days in school, where I'm sitting right beside the teacher's favorite student who makes me look even more like a jerk."
Meanwhile, Sophia only placed her hand on Logan's shoulder and said, "You're not a jerk. You're just spoiled."
Logan responded with silence as he guzzled the beer in his glass. At the same time, Sophia knew she mustn't take it too far, fearing that her kind words of advice would frustrate her friend and backfire instead. Therefore, she decided to stop talking and continued to sit beside Logan in silence after taking some more of the food. She wasn't hungry after all, so she stopped after merely a couple of bites.
Logan contemplated things briefly before he reached for the beer bottle again. Nonetheless, Sophia didn't stop him this time, knowing that her words had just gone in one ear and out the other. For that, she didn't want to upset him anymore by saying something he didn't like to hear. On the other hand, Logan quickly fell into a drunken stupor as he went on to drown his sorrows. However, Sophia didn't send for the waiter. Instead, she merely sat beside him and scrolled through her phone.
Soon, Logan collapsed on the table with his eyes shut. In his drunkenness, he swung his arm and knocked over a glass onto the floor, shattering it. The loud crash woke him up. He then opened his eyes and looked around him, whereupon he smiled at Sophia. "You must be thinking I'm a piece of trash, Sophia."
Sophia paused and quickly answered, "Of course not."
Logan sniggered and said, "I'm not a shameless man, and I know I'd be a nobody if it weren't for my old man and my four capable sisters, along with their husbands." He then leaned back on his chair with his eyes closed as he looked like he was falling asleep again. Even so, he wouldn't stop complaining. "She was right. My mouth is as big as my ego, yet I'm the one everyone despises. Thus, I'm only a king in my own world, and that's nothing to boast about."
Upon hearing Logan's words, Sophia blinked, seemingly able to guess who said those words. As Logan's voice drifted into silence, Sophia knew he must have dozed off. This time, she didn't wait. Instead, she quickly called for the help of the waiters.
When the waiters came in, they felt helpless to see Logan in a drunken stupor. Then, they told Sophia about Logan's usual behavior. "Young Master Jefferson's temper has been rather unpredictable lately. He is usually seen quiet in one moment, but he would then begin to mutter things to himself in another."
Sophia leaned against the door and replied, "Something has been bothering him recently, and he just doesn't know how to take the load off his chest."
Soon, the two waiters came over and carried Logan out of the lounge. "He's never been like this before. Honestly, we're all worried about him."
Sophia sighed and said, "He'll be fine after some time."
Everyone hits rock bottom at a point in life. Logan's ego has grown too big, and I'm actually glad that someone knocked him down to size. At the thought of that, Sophia couldn't help but feel grateful to Lola for what she had done. After all, she couldn't believe that this lady managed to humble someone as uncontrollable as Logan and teach him a lesson on behalf of this stubborn brat's father.
While Logan was taken to his room, Sophia went downstairs and sat in the lobby. There were barely any customers at the club in the day, so the waiters didn't have a lot of work to attend to. Feeling bored, Sophia beckoned to two waiters and said, "Well, since we're all free, let's play a card game to kill time."
Since they knew Sophia, they didn't mind going along with her and proceeded to play the game. As soon as they got their hands on the deck of cards, they heard the club's door being opened, followed by the sound of someone dragging his luggage. Nonetheless, Sophia couldn't care less about that as her eyes were glued to the cards in her hands.
