Sophia, however, didn’t notice John’s subtle action, merely staring at him seriously. “I find it truly strange that he knew me when I rarely go out.”
Schooling his expression, John asked calmly, “You went to his house?”
Sophia nodded and even blurted out the location of Ian’s house outright. “It was a rather huge house. His family must be exceedingly affluent since it’s right in the city center.”
The moment John heard the location, he knew which family it was. Lowering his head, he put away the documents on his desk. “It should be the Morgan Family, then.”
Sophia blinked. “Yes, yes, his first name is Morgan. You’re acquainted with him?”
John murmured an affirmation. “I once saw the patriarch of the Morgan Family, Old Mr. Morgan, when I was entertaining clients. We’re not acquaintances per se since there are no business dealings between us.” The Morgan Family is in investment, and they seem to be doing rather well, but… He fixed his gaze on her. “From a friend’s perspective, I’d advise you to keep your distance from this family.”
The corners of Sophia’s mouth turned down for a moment. “Why?” John said nothing, so she grew chagrined and muttered, “You asked me to keep my distance from Dylan, and now Ian, but you won’t even give me a reason. John Constance, what’s the meaning of this?”
Before John could respond, Zack piped up from the side, “Can’t you guess? Boss is jealous.” All at once, John’s head snapped up and Sophia swiveled, both staring at him in unison. The smile on his face slowly faded, and his voice became a mere whisper. “I was just joking. Why are you two looking at me like this? Can’t I even joke?”
After that, no one spoke. Picking up her cell phone, Sophia started reading the news reports on the Internet. I wonder when those reporters will compile my interview earlier into an article and publish it. I think I did a good job and have explained everything perfectly.

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...
