Next One Is a Babe Chapter 990

Isabelle sighed. “The situation at my house isn’t looking good and I really don’t want to stay here any

longer. I just want to understand your progress now so that I can leave as soon as possible if

everything’s going on smoothly.”

After considering things for a moment, John asked, “Will your grandfather and father allow you to

leave?”

This was indeed a good question as Isabelle was the only hope of the main branch of the Bailey Family

now that Dexter was gone. Mrs. Bailey had left, and only her father would be left in the family if Isabelle

were to leave as well. Thus, John knew that Old Mr. Bailey and Elder Mr. Bailey would definitely

disagree if Isabelle wanted to leave.

Isabelle fell into silence before answering, “I have my own ways.”

John paused for a moment before he suggested, “You need to think about this carefully as it would be

a huge problem if what your family is doing is exposed. If you don’t want to get involved in this, it would

be better if you can leave as soon as possible.”

Then, Isabelle sighed before telling him that she understood and hung up.

After staring at John’s phone for a moment, Sophia questioned, “What happened? Is Isabelle leaving?”

John grunted before he explained, “The Baileys are involved in too many aspects and I still can’t

fathom everything, but from the information that I have gathered right now, they will be in serious

trouble if they get exposed.”

Everyone in the Bailey Family might get affected? It must be a very serious matter to affect the entire

family like that. At that thought, Sophia nodded as she lamented, “The Baileys are really audacious,

huh?”

Indeed, even John was amazed with what Elder Mr. Bailey could do sometimes. How could someone

so old still be so greedy for wealth? Had he ever thought of how many people in the Bailey Family

would get affected by what he had done? It might not have mattered to him, since he could close his

eyes and leave all the responsibilities to the others just because he was old, but what about his family

members?

After John brought Sophia back to the main building, he accompanied Sophia to watch some

animations on the couch before they returned to their room. However, a mere few minutes after John

entered the bedroom, Zack’s phone call came, so he had to go to the study room.

Sophia sighed as she changed into her pajamas. It felt like John had returned to how he was like

during their first marriage, being busy as always. Then, she lay on the bed and started scrolling through

the news on her phone. There wasn’t any interesting news recently besides those in the entertainment

section.

As Sophia sat on her bed and pondered for a moment, she recalled the talent show that Ian joined

previously. It had been a really long time since she last watched it, so she couldn’t help but wonder

about his progress now. Then, Sophia started looking it up before realizing that the show had already

reached its final stage in the championship.

It had been a long time since she last contacted Ian, and they hadn’t talked much the last time he came

back. Still, it felt to Sophia like they had already talked everything out. However, it was impossible for

them to return to how they were in the first place even when the problem was already resolved.

Sophia randomly tapped on the newest episode and started watching the show. Ian’s condition was

getting better now and he had returned to how he was last time, quiet and slightly distant. Then, Sophia

scrolled through the comments below to see that many netizens had good things to say about Ian.

Ian was promoting himself as a gentle prince. Although this wasn’t the fastest road to gain more fans,

he still had a solid fanbase. During the start of the show, Ian had been singing sweet love songs, but he

had been venturing into different song genres during these few episodes. For example, he sang an

explosive rock and roll song during the latest episode.

This was Sophia’s first time seeing Ian going all out singing on the stage as he had always been gentle

and restrained, so she couldn’t help but feel sad when she heard his heart-rending singing.
