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.

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...
