The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1132

Shawn was working in town, and he had a great, stable job everyone wanted.

When Logan drove her to his workplace, she called him. Shawn said he’d be right out, and they ended the call. Lola heaved a sigh and looked at Logan. “Wait right here. I’ll go and talk to him.”

Logan trusted her to handle this well without needing any help from him, and he nodded before replying gently, “Sure. Call me if you need anything.”

Without replying, Lola went to Shawn’s workplace, and out came Shawn to see her when she was reaching his office.

He didn’t know Logan was the one who gave her a ride, so he was happy to see her. “I’ll be going to your place tonight.” He trotted toward her. “You didn’t have to come.”

Smiling at him, Lola put her hands in her pockets and stared down. “I have something to ask you.”

Shawn nodded. “Sure. What would you like to know?”

A smile curled her lips. “You have an ex-girlfriend, don’t you?”

Shawn froze, and he looked away. “That’s normal for guys my age, don’t you think?”

Once again, the question remained unanswered. Strictly speaking, his ex-girlfriend didn’t ask much, but it was his family who refused to pay instead. She had dated him for three years and even gave her virginity to him. Thus, his family thought that effectively meant nobody would marry her aside from Shawn, so to them, she was worth nothing. Shawn couldn’t tell that to Lola, though. What would she think of him? The fear of her loathing prevented him from answering.

At this, Lola smiled. “Why aren’t you saying anything? Because the answer’s too unbelievable?”

Shawn stared at her and stammered, but in the end, he couldn’t say a word.

Lola wasn’t angered at his silence; she was as calm as an undisturbed lake. “When I first found out about it, I wondered if I might end up like your ex once I met your parents. I don’t know what your family considers a ‘good’ daughter-in-law, but I do know that I’m terrified of them. I’m scared that they might think I’m worthless.”
