Sophia stared at John. After a long while, she said, “No one else is interested in me since I’m only a touch alluring in your eyes. Don’t tell me you truly think those young, single guys will take a liking to a married lady who has conceived a child like me?”
John’s expression remained tense. “What has your allure got to do with whether you’re married or have a child? In my opinion, you’re more beautiful than the average woman, so you’re more alluring than them.”
The two of them were initially headed for a row, but it veered off tangent at this remark, so the argument was no longer on the horizon. After all, this was obviously a somewhat corny complaint.
Sophia struggled for a bit. “Get up quickly. Get up! You’re crushing me.” John didn’t move, so she heaved a sigh. “Let me tell you that no one else is interested in me. Even if someone were interested in me, I’m not interested in anyone else. You, John Constance, are so alluring that I’m worried that if I were to let go of you, Isabelle would quickly snatch you away.”
Upon hearing this, John’s expression eased. He flipped over and got off her, lying down beside her instead.
Sophia then continued, “Don’t keep harping on the fact that Ian is interested in me. I’m not even guarding against Isabelle on your side, so this is the pot calling the kettle black. Do you really want things to persist like this?”
Pursing his lips, John resentfully muttered, “That’s different.”
“What’s the difference?” Sophia flipped to her side to face him. “Do you dare say that Isabelle doesn’t have feelings for you? Do you believe that if we were to get divorced now and you were to go back to her, she’d still be willing to get together with you?”
John shot her a glare. “Stop talking nonsense. What divorce? Don’t simply say such a thing!”

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...
