Old Mr. Bailey said, “There is no rush. Let’s just continue to observe. The Jeffersons may let Logan to act as he pleases, but they should have their limits.”
Mrs. Bailey agreed with what he said.
Then, the car grew silent once more.
As the car continued on to the Bailey Residence, Elder Mr. Bailey was still sitting in the living room.
The television was switched on, but he didn’t watch it.
A servant made him a pot of tea, but he just picked it up and smelled it instead of drinking it.
After he had aged, sleep became difficult for him. If he drank tea tonight, he probably wouldn’t be able to sleep.
Elder Mr. Bailey watched as Old Mr. Bailey and the rest came home.
He put down his teacup. “You all smell of alcohol. It looks like the meal was a success.” When he said this, the three people entering the door were a little awkward.
This meal was anticlimactic. The three of them originally thought with the start they had today, they would have a good harvest.
But who would have expected Sophia to join in halfway, followed by Logan.
These two really were troublesome.
When Elder Mr. Bailey saw their expressions, he frowned. “What’s wrong? Did it not go well?”
Isabelle did not wish to talk about what happened tonight. Her heart retched when she thought about how Sophia gave her a middle finger.
She was listless. “I’ll be going to rest now. Grandpa, you should rest early as well.”
Elder Mr. Bailey waited until Isabelle had left, then looked at Old Mr. Bailey. “What’s going on?”
Old Mr. Bailey sighed. He sat down and briefly talked about Sophia and Logan.
The connections they had were so large it was staggering.
Elder Mr. Bailey thought about it, then said to Old Mr. Bailey, “See if you can find an opportunity to meet with someone from the Jeffersons. They are all businessmen, so they should know how to choose.”
Old Mr. Bailey nodded slowly. “Okay, I understand.”
Mrs. Bailey, who was beside them, felt a little uncomfortable with all this. “Dad, it’s not like Isabelle can’t get married. John hasn’t divorced yet. I don’t feel it’s worth it for Belle if we joined in like this. If Belle really wants to find someone to get married to, she should find someone more reliable than John.”
Elder Mr. Bailey shot her a glare. “What do you know? Do you think it’s the same now as usual? There’s no time for her to go looking for another prospect. As for John, he’ll get divorced sooner or later. There is nothing wrong with us making preparations beforehand. Matilda has told you, hasn’t she? John and Sophia won’t stay together for long. Rather than letting someone else snatch him up in the end, we should strike first.”
Mrs. Bailey felt that what he said made sense. She frowned and thought about it for a while, then shut her mouth.
Over at Sophia’s side, after wrangling in the private room for a while, everyone had gone home.
John had drunk alcohol, but he had asked a driver to come 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...
