Sophia stared at John. “Why are you looking at me like that?” John said nothing, but he subtly flashed her a lukewarm smile, which had her baffled.
At the side, William stood up. “I’ll leave the two of you. I’ve still got something to do, so please excuse me.”
After he’d left, John retracted his gaze and asked nonchalantly, “Have you eaten?”
Sophia murmured an assent. “Yup. Are you going on your lunch break now?” It’s already past lunchtime now.
At this time, Zack came over. “I ordered delivery. Boss and I will be eating in the office since we’ll inevitably bump into those paparazzi if we go out.”
Sophia plopped onto the sofa. “Don’t worry. Those reporters are actually very easy to dismiss. They just want to know the truth of the matter, so you just need to tell them the truth.”
Guffawing, Zack looked at her. “Young missy, you’re rather naïve.” Sophia arched an eyebrow but said nothing.
At this time, John had taken his cell phone out, and it was vibrating. Sophia glanced at him out of the corner of her eyes. It can only be a call from Constance Residence at such a time. Sure enough, John answered the call after a single glance and greeted the person as ‘Mom’. Sophia rolled her eyes wordlessly.
Mrs. Constance had already called several times earlier, rendered restless at home by the news reports on the Internet that popped out one after another. However, John was rather patient, saying that it was fine and he could resolve it. Unaware that Sophia had already spoken to the media, Mrs. Constance hurriedly inquired about her stance. Her thinking was actually similar to William’s, worried that Sophia harbored resentment against her and would grab this opportunity to talk smack with the media.
John chuckled. “It’s fine. Sophia has spoken to the media and explained things to them, so the matter should be resolved in no time.” Mrs. Constance breathed a faint sigh of relief at this.

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...
