The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1166

Then, he turned his attention to Elder Mr. Bailey and strode toward him. Raising his hand, he delivered slap after slap on his face as he displayed his roguish attitude. “How dare you drug me, old man! You must be tired of living after living for so long!”

Next to them, John rubbed his nose and looked the other way; the scene was a little joyous to him.

Elder Mr. Bailey looked at Logan with daggers in his eyes, as he didn’t think that he would have zero respect for him and act like a thug with him.

Spitting on the floor, Logan scowled, “What are you glaring at, old man? Listen here, others might be afraid of you, but not me! Just you wait, damn old man.”

Unable to stand by and watch any longer, Lola nudged him and said, “Forget it, let the police here handle this.”

Later, a few of the policemen came over and checked on her. “Are you alright?”

Smirking, she answered, “I’m alright, actually.”

The police nodded. “You made another merit again.”

It was obvious that this was one of her old colleagues, and his face turned grim when he faced Elder Mr. Bailey.

Neither humble nor pushy, Elder Mr. Bailey stood with his back stick straight. Actually, he did have some regrets at this point, but not for anything he planned for today. Rather, he regretted letting Old Mr. Bailey in charge of some details.

If he had personally arranged everything himself, the situation wouldn’t have turned out as it did now. Take the four bodyguards who were beaten to the ground, for instance. They were obviously not cut out for the job and didn’t even do that much before they were trashed.

What a bunch of good-for-nothing, he lamented.

In the meantime, Sophia was seated in the car for a long while before seeing people buzzing out of the dilapidated farmhouse.

The first to be brought out was Elder Mr. Bailey, of course, and he walked with his usual air of arrogance about him, as though he was a supervisor coming to make the rounds.

This old man is still not forgetting his pride even at this time.

Sophia got out of the car and scanned at the back of the crowd to find John, Logan, and Lola. Running toward them, she asked, “Are you okay? Is everyone alright?”

Taking her into his embrace, John answered, “Yeah, we’re all fine.”

With an arm around Lola, Logan added, “We’re fine as well.”
