The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 262

Sophia kept the smile on her face because she was an educated lady. “Ah, my husband has a business dinner to attend today. In fact, I didn’t want to come here because this is your private dinner, so I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to be here. However, Logan insisted that I should tag along, saying that it wasn’t a formal dinner.”

Third Young Lady Jefferson was startled by what Sophia said.

She took a look at Logan, who was smiling at Sophia like a fool.

Then, she shifted her attention to Sophia, who was confident and unflustered.

In that instant, she heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that finally, someone was able to deal with her younger brother, who had been a headache for the family.

Old Mr. Bailey smiled faintly and fell into silence.

Third Young Lady Jefferson mumbled, “Indeed, this isn’t a formal dinner. It’s wonderful that you’ve joined this private dinner.”

Her words had upset the Baileys because she didn’t seem to have any regard for them.

Sophia smiled and said thanks.

Since everyone was there, a waiter came in and put down the menus.

Afraid that Sophia would be bored, Logan kept introducing the dishes to her.

Sophia casually ordered two dishes and put down the menu.

After that, Third Young Lady Jefferson gazed at Old Mr. Bailey and said, “I heard that the Baileys have formed a business partnership with the Constances. Congratulations.”

Old Mr. Bailey laughed and explained, “This partnership is a win-win situation. We’re facing an economic downturn now, therefore we have to partner up with the equals to defend our market share.”

There was obviously a hidden message in his words.

“Oh, that’s quick.” Logan continued, “Do you need my help? If you don’t understand anything, just inform me, and I’ll settle it for you.”

Sophia burst into laughter upon hearing that. Unlike the rumors about him, Logan was actually a naive man.

Then, she said gently, “There’s no need. I’ll look for John when there’s a problem. You’re my trump card, which should be reserved for the most critical moments.”

Although she was apparently teasing him, Logan was genuinely happy. “Alright, since you have said so, just call me if you want to do anything in the future. I promise that I’ll support you with my money and power.”

Sophia stared at him for a while and curled her lips. “Sure, don’t forget about your promise.”

Logan suddenly changed the topic and said cheekily, “Sophia, please be honest with me. Do you have any sisters that you can introduce to me?”

Sophia’s expression turned dark immediately, and she said regrettably, “I just thought that you had become decent. Look, you can’t even keep the pretense on for one minute.”
