Upon reading through the contract once again, Zack reassured Sophia that all was well, as everything that needed to be amended was amended. Thus, Sophia signed it without hesitation. Meanwhile, Robin sat behind the counter silently without even acknowledging Mr. Reyes. The latter knew why she was behaving like that, as he swindled a lot of her money.
There were two copies of the contract, which would belong to the respective parties after both of them signed and put down their thumbprint. The landlord left after all was done, but Sophia wasn’t able to leave due to the heavy downpour, thus she sat in the shop.
She was feeling more relieved after the contract was signed, but Robin had a hard time staying still. After a while, she suggested to Sophia, “Let’s go have some fun after the rain stops. Seeing the landlord just kills my mood, so I don’t feel like doing any shopkeeping today at all. I want to go on a stroll outside.”
Sophia was sitting by the window while staring into the distance when she replied, “Sure.” Her phone buzzed as soon as she said so, a call coming in from Ian, which she picked up immediately.
His voice sounded a little languid through the call as he asked, “Where are you?”
After a pause, she replied, “I’m outside.”
A chuckle could be heard through the call. “Alone?”
“Nope.” Sophia turned to look at Robin. “I’m with a friend.”
Ian heaved a sigh before asking, “Would you like to meet up? I’m with a friend as well, so we can get to know each other.”
Did he just say he’s with a friend? He used to tell me he had none! Such were her thoughts as she turned to look at Robin while asking for her opinion by mouthing at her.
The latter quickly got out from behind the counter as she nodded. “Sure, let’s go.”
After Sophia gave a reply in the affirmative, the two of them closed the shop before hailing a cab to go to the location designated by Ian without even waiting for the rain to stop. It was a clubhouse, which was practically empty during the day. Ian was waiting for them at the entrance when they arrived, then he greeted Robin politely before saying, “Come on, let’s go inside.”

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...
