Sophia chuckled in response. “Tsk! Tsk! Please allow me to remind you one more time that it’s Mrs. Constance, not Miss Gwenndolyn.”
Her reply instantly rendered Isabelle speechless. Then, Sophia turned around and lazily added, “I’ll let you know by then. As much as I appreciate your sincere invitation, I’d like you to know that I can’t really travel around conveniently considering my current condition. Even if I wanted to, John wouldn’t allow me either. Thus, I’ll have to discuss this with John.” Before Isabelle could say anything further, Sophia continued to say, “Alright, I’m going to take a nap now. Bye.” After that, she hung up the call right away without giving Isabelle a chance to respond.
Upon finishing the call, Sophia tossed her phone aside and tucked herself in while lying in bed. A few seconds later, she instantly went out like a light. Although she usually had dreams in her sleep, she slept soundly throughout her nap like a queen this time. It seemed like her days were getting better and better indeed.
In the meantime, Isabelle paused with her phone in her hand for a while before she put it down. Then, when Elder Mr. Bailey came closer and took the phone with a glacial look on his face, Isabelle clenched her teeth and cursed Sophia. “How arrogant she is!”
“Not for long.” Elder Mr. Bailey sniggered, while Isabelle shifted her gaze to him without saying a word.
Putting away the phone, Elder Mr. Bailey didn’t even bother to meet Isabelle’s gaze as he said, “You will stay here these few days until your Uncle Ernest’s birthday. Isabelle, I’m so disappointed in you!”
Meanwhile, the human bone that was found in the shadow bank had its owner identified as the person whom John had been investigating all along. At that moment, John was sitting in the office with William in front of him when one of his men gave him a call and told him that. John smiled and said, “There is no need for us to interfere with the matter. Let the police handle it with the victim’s family members.”
After responding with an affirmative grunt, John’s subordinate said, “Those family members seemed to be very happy when they learned about this person’s death. They’re especially excited now.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
So what happens to Ian and Cindy. Is she/ or does she get pregnant? Do they go back to the city and Ian works with Logan? Does Aurora stay in the entertainment industry or return with Ian? Terrible ending, who cares if Aurora was drinking/drunk with colleagues. What happened with Ian and Cindy?!...
Get rid of Gary. Apparently Cindy is too dumb to figure out his motives 😡...
Why are you trying to break them up when they just got together and are a loving couple. Let them stay close and move back to their true friends, Logan, Lola, John and Sophia!...
Sure hope Ian pulls his head out of his behind and works this out with Cindy. His brother needs him at the company and neither one of them truly like the celebrity life. Sophia and Lola will love her …....
I can’t wait for John to take down the Bailey’s including Isabelle so he, Sophia, William and Matilda can live in peace. Introduce Yolanda to Richard so they are out of the picture....
Ugh, don’t break up Sophia and John… they belong together and Sophia is just stubborn for no reason...
Sophia lives John, he just needs to tell her he loves her and get on with their life and family. Too much interference from others....
Sophia is so stupid....
John needs to man up, tell his mother and Isabelle to take a flying leap and confess to Sophia that he made a horrible mistake in divorcing her. This story is taking too long and once again, the bitches are looking like they are on the right side. Awful...
