“Mom, Dad, what brings you?” Their visit was a surprise to John.
“Your dad told me you took a day off because you’re feeling unwell, so I came to visit you as I worry about you.” Mrs. Constance looked at him. The doorbell also alerted Sophia of the arrival of guests, but she retreated into the kitchen as soon as she saw the couple.
The house reminded Mrs. Constance of things that had gone awry, and a glance at Sophia’s direction triggered feelings of discomfort. While standing by the door, Mrs. Constance was reminded of when Sophia humiliated her in front of the maids, which she held a grudge against.
Mrs. Constance scanned her surroundings after sitting down on the sofa alongside William. The decor on the first floor was not to John’s taste at all, so she asked him in a low voice, “Is this the house you gave her after your divorce?”
Upon seeing him give a nod, she harrumphed as she thought, Sophia’s money situation sure took off after divorcing him! She made such a huge profit out of it! Even legal businesses wouldn’t make so much profit!
William looked at John as he spoke. “Is the scandal the cause of your illness?”
John wore a smile on his face. “No, it will take much more than that to falter me.”
William nodded. “That’s fine, then. The incident shouldn’t have happened in the first place, and it will never brew into anything of consequence as long as you’re innocent.”
“Yeah. Infinity Group should be actively trying to create more havoc, but they have only a few more days to do so.” Such was John’s reply.
William understood what John meant and said, “I got news that an auditing team was established, so I believe we will soon get results.”
There was a smile on John’s face while he switched the topic. “Does Grandma have anything to say upon being told that you’re coming over?”

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...
