Logan slapped his thigh. “Let’s go to my place instead of ordering takeout.”
Pursing her lips, Lola nodded. “That’s a good idea.” It was the first time she was singing the same tune as him.
Since John didn’t want to continue speaking of the topic earlier, he echoed, “Sure. Grandma, let’s go together.”
Old Mrs. Constance deliberated for a moment before beaming. “Okay! I haven’t been to Logan’s place either.”
When the lot of them arrived at Logan’s clubhouse, a private room was already prepared for them. John and Sophia led Old Mrs. Constance in. On the other hand, Logan remained standing at the clubhouse entrance and took out a packet of cigarettes. After a brief contemplation, Lola didn’t follow the others in but retraced her steps and walked over to him. “Thank you for today.”
With a cigarette in his mouth, Logan turned and looked at her, his gaze earnest and solemn. For some inexplicable reason, Lola abruptly recalled the hug he gave her earlier in that dilapidated farmhouse after sprinting over to her. It was very warm and reassuring. Giving a soft cough, she asked, “Why are you looking at me like this? I’m thanking you.”
The corners of his mouth lifting, Logan suddenly reached out and caressed her head. “But I don’t think I protected you all that well.”
This time, Lola didn’t dodge. Flashing him a smile, she said, “You’ve already done very well. I believe that you’ll do even better in the future.”
Logan sighed. “Alright, go on in first. I’ll join you in a while after smoking a cigarette.”

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...
