The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1008

The house was in the middle of the courtyard. There was a yard in front and a small garden in the back, but the garden was now devoid of any flowers or plants.

This small farmyard was enclosed by a wooden fence. The fact that it was far away from the suburbs meant there were not many people coming and going around here. Therefore, the owner of this farmyard did not take up strict anti-theft measures. It would be a piece of cake if someone wanted to get in.

Narrowing her eyes slowly, Isabelle stood up and moved toward the window. There was a window in her room facing the garden at the back. The problem was just that this window couldn’t be opened. Elder Mr. Bailey had arranged for her to stay in this room, and to prevent her from escaping, the lock of this window was destroyed.

So, Isabelle could only stand at the window looking toward the small garden. Other than that little noise just now, there was no other disturbance in the garden.

Isabelle stared out the window for a while, a little disappointed. That’s right. This is such a remote place, so how can it be so easy to locate?

After waiting for a bit more, she turned around to return to the bed, but she had only turned halfway when a hand was suddenly pressed on the glass window.

Shocked, Isabelle choked back a scream. However, there was only one hand that was pressed on the glass window, and the owner of this hand had not shown him or herself.

Looking back at the door, Isabelle went over to lock it first, then walked to the window and knocked on it gently. The hand above the windowpane slowly retracted itself, and then a person cautiously emerged from the side of the window.

Although Isabelle didn’t recognize this person, her instincts told her that this person was probably sent by John. She didn’t dare to speak loudly and only mouthed to the guy that she was okay, and that what she did had been discovered by Elder Mr. Bailey.

The guy was also vigilant enough to mouth back to her, saying that John had already found her and wanted to know if she would like to leave. If she wanted to leave, John could help her.

No matter what she did, the Bailey Family seemed destined to go down.

John’s subordinate came and went, yet none of the Bailey Family’s guards noticed him at all. They probably felt that since the back windows were all locked, there would not be any problems, so nobody guarded the backyard.

This was a loophole in itself. Most of the time, the Bailey Family tended to think that their plans were seamlessly perfect, but their loopholes were also quite obvious too.

Isabelle turned and returned to the bed. Then, she continued sitting there in a meditative state. Hopefully during the time I’m locked up here, John will have solved everything out there.

Isabelle really didn’t want to go out and face so many unhappy events. In fact, she had already packed everything up. If the matter was resolved, she could leave immediately and go to her mother’s place.
