The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 28

When John was done, it was still noisy outside. Sophia sat on the sofa with John’s shirt underneath her. She couldn’t wear her dress now, so she sat there, dangling her long and slender legs. “Tell me how I’m supposed to go out now.”

“Zack will come back with some clothes.” John smoked before the window, not looking back.

Sophia nodded. “At least I still have him.” She picked up her dress and looked at it closely. Yep. I can’t wear this. She crumpled it up and tossed it into the trash can before going back to the sofa to scroll through her phone.

The Collum guy back at the plane texted her, asking her what she was doing. Sophia noticed he had sent it a while ago, but she was probably f*cking with John, so she didn’t hear the beep. So, she texted him back, saying she was bathing, so she didn’t hear her phone.

Not long after she texted him, Collum called her. She set her phone on vibration mode, but John heard it too. Even so, he kept smoking without missing a beat. He was naked from the waist up, and he was barefooted. After glancing at him, she turned back to her phone to take the call.

“Miss Gwendolyn,” Collum said.

“What is it?”

Collum chuckled. “I have time tomorrow, so where are you now? If you’re still in Tri Asel, we can go out on a trip. I know a few good places.”

Sophia looked down at her feet with a smile. “A trip, huh? I’m not sure if I have time tomorrow, and I haven’t settled on my itinerary for it.”

“I see.” Collum wasn’t disappointed. “Sure. I’ll call you tomorrow then. See if you have time.”

Sophia said okay happily, but after hanging up, she stopped smiling. She played around with her phone, and the silent John finally said, “Why didn’t you go out with him? Aren’t you here to wind down? You should go out and relax.”

Sophia looked at her phone. “I don’t have to go out with him. I have another suitor, so I want to see if he’ll ask me out tomorrow,” she said softly.

John paused. “Sure. Always keep your choices open.” He smiled.

Sophia smiled back. “Of course. We have to compare when it comes to this.” Looking back at John, she asked, “Don’t you think so, Mr. Constance?”

John looked back at her. Her hair tumbled down to her chest, covering her nipples. While she was smiling, her breasts appeared fairer than usual, and because she just had sex, there was a luscious gleam in her eyes. Sophia was looking more alluring than she ever did.

John paused for a moment and looked back outside the window. “I don’t have to keep my choices open.” He was arrogant, but he wasn’t wrong. Since every woman would flock to him anyway, so he didn’t need to keep his choices open.

Sophia chuckled. “Of course. I forgot that you don’t need to keep your choices open. Just say the word, and they’ll come to you.”

John smiled, then he put out his cigarette. There was nothing more to say after that, so Sophia texted Zack, asking him when he would send the clothes over.

Zack didn’t reply, so Sophia wondered if he had seen it. Then, Sophia looked at John. He was looking outside with his phone in one hand and the other in his pocket, standing perfectly upright.
