The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1158

Upon acknowledging, Lola didn’t really intend to sleep at first, but after lying down for a little while, she fell asleep in a daze. However, she didn’t sleep too well. Halfway asleep, she heard someone knocking on the door, which woke her up immediately.

Hearing that, Logan headed to open the door, and stood still right at the doorway. From the bed, Lola could hear that a man was serving them some drinks and snacks. Taking the tray from him, Logan didn’t allow the man a chance to take a peek at Lola’s direction. As soon as the man left, Logan locked the door once again and placed the snacks, as well as juices, on top of the coffee table.

When they got into the room, there wasn’t anything to eat or drink. After a while later, they did feel kind of thirsty. Offering the glass of juice to Lola, Logan said, “Drink some.”

Taking a sip of the juice, Lola felt that it was too sweet for her liking. Considering she was never a fan of sweet stuff, she only took a sip.

Seeing that there was also another cup of tea on the tray, Logan finished half of the cup in a gulp. Initially, he intended to call for someone to serve something over, as he was already feeling thirsty.

Just then, John called over to check on them, making sure that everything was alright. Chuckling, Logan joked, “I think they have forgotten about us.”

Heaving a sigh of relief, John said that Ernest had been pestering him. It seemed that Ernest had much to talk about, thus had been yakking his head off. Seeing that, John couldn’t help but suspect whether he was instructed to do so by Old Mr. Bailey or he was naturally this passionate. But one thing for sure, John couldn’t excuse himself easily.

Not only had Ernest been rambling about, but he had also invited several other business partners to join in the conversation and share about their experiences in managing business. As they were mostly seniors in the industry, John couldn’t turn them down all at once, for it would be rather disrespectful.

At the same time, Lola didn’t notice anything unusual and gradually fell asleep once again.

In the meantime, Sophia was sitting in the car with her phone in her hands, staring at the main entrance of the Bailey Residence. A moment ago, John dropped her a quick call to assure her that everything was fine.

Hearing that, Sophia felt her heart eased up a little, but not long later, she saw a car slowly driving out of Bailey Residence. With the car windows shut tight, she could barely see who was sitting in the car. Once the car made its way out of the main entrance, Sophia managed to catch a glimpse of two men, who were impeccably dressed while seated at the driver and front passenger seat.
