Logan chuckled nonstop. “The point is that I’m telling you the truth. I can’t hide it.”
Beside him, Old Mr. Jefferson looked away from Logan. This was the first time he saw his son behave obediently in front of someone else.
Logan did not receive a reply text from John at all. John probably was at a social event and overlooked the text.
Impatient, Logan sent another text to John, and this time, he reported his location and mentioned that Sophia was eating and drinking merrily with him, both of them getting high.
When it came to bluffing, Logan was even more skillful than Sophia. After that, he stored his phone away and didn’t show her the text.
Sophia did not mind. After taking a few bites, she drank some fruit juice while listening to the business discussion between Old Mr. Bailey and the Third Young Lady Jefferson.
The topic was not totally alien to Sophia, but she definitely could not fully grasp the technicality and the jargon. Anyway, she told herself not to appear clueless. It didn’t matter if she was an outsider as long as she could appear composed and professional.
She leaned into her chair with a calm expression and a faint smile on her face, looking humble but confident.
To be honest, she was the only person without an elite background in the room.
Everyone came from a wealthy and influential background except for her—she was the only country bumpkin among them.
Old Mr. Bailey got carried away by the conversation and paid no attention to Sophia. Instead, it was Mrs. Bailey who had been fixated on her.
Mrs. Bailey observed that Sophia looked a little different today compared to her attitude at their previous meetup. That day, Sophia was quite haughty with a calculative look in her eyes. But this time, she displayed a calm attitude with a transparent gaze.

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...
