The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1005

But John thought that after what happened last night, those people inside should have run away as well.

Sophia nodded. “Okay, I get it.” She didn’t want to say any more, as her saying too much would cause John to feel burdened.

The two sat on the bed and chatted for a while. Later, John got up to shower and went downstairs to eat. Sophia hadn’t slept the whole night, so her head hurt a bit, and she didn’t have an appetite. Hence, she told John to go down and tell the maid that she would only eat her breakfast later after a nap.

John knew that Sophia must have felt insecure for the entire night, so he didn’t force her either. As he stroked Sophia’s hair, he said, “You take a good rest. Don’t worry about me, as the matter should be over soon.”

Can we please end it soon? Sophia really hated such a situation like this one.

Not long after she lay back in bed, Logan called. Compared to John’s seriousness, Logan seemed to be a lot more relaxed. He told Sophia about the current situation of the shadow bank. Apparently, the shadow bank was closed down for investigation, and many account books were found inside. Most of them contained the details of what they had loaned out. The rest were their internal stolen accounts.

Narrowing her eyes, Sophia asked Logan, “So is that shadow bank completely destroyed now?”

Logan laughed aloud. “Almost. I heard Lola say that the evidence is quite sufficient, and many people involved in it have been arrested.”

He heard Lola say it? Sophia picked up on that important point all at once. She asked, “So the relationship between you and Lola has improved again, hasn’t it?”

Logan made a hissing noise. “That is beside the point. Anyway, that woman and I have formed an alliance. You know that. This time, the matter is so important that surely we both have to abandon our previous grudges. But I still look down on her.”
