“Mm,” she responded through pursed lips, then waited until he was back in his room before closing the door.
She leaned against the door. Why is my face burning up?
After taking a few deep breaths, she went into the bathroom.
Once she was done with her shower, she had settled down quite a bit.
She lay down in bed and tried not to let her mind wander.
A man and a woman alone together, not to mention the fact that they used to have an intimate relationship. There was bound to be a surge of emotions.
John doesn’t like it when I do those things. At the thought of that, her heart slowly calmed down.
It was very effective.
She flipped over and looked out the window.
One good thing about living in the hills was that she did not have to worry about people peeping in even when she did not draw the curtains before going to sleep at night.
From where she was, she could see the stars.
She had only seen them previously when she lived in her small village.
After a while, sleep finally started to overcome her.
She let out a sigh then slowly fell asleep.
Meanwhile, John also went into the bathroom and took a cold shower to calm himself down.
He knew for sure that he did not like Sophia, but he still felt something whenever he saw her.
That was what he was fretting over.
He was so familiar with her body that he could imagine what she looked like under that thin fabric.
Laying back down in bed, he covered himself with the blanket and did his best to calm down.
He wondered if putting her in the room right next to his was a good idea.
It somehow felt like it was just giving him more trouble.
He tossed and turned in bed for a long time before finally falling asleep, but he was unable to sleep well that night.
He dreamed of a lot of things and they all had to do with things they did in bed.
Sophia looked distressed every time from being tormented by him.
Whenever she did not speak up despite being in distress, it frustrated him and made him want to torment her even more.
Those were the kind of dreams he had throughout the night.
When he woke up in the morning, he felt like he had not slept a wink.
He was exhausted.

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...
