Upon pondering for a while, Sophia replied, “Yes, I’m going to the shop tomorrow. I’ll call Robin and tell her to come with me to see how the shop can be improved further since she has prior experience in doing this.”
As Zack agreed, they ended the conversation.
After washing up, Sophia lay down on the bed.
Having walked around for the entire day, she was so tired that her body couldn’t take it anymore.
It required energy to go shopping.
Not long after she got into the bed, she slumbered off to the slumberland.
However, she awakened in the middle of the night as she was thirsty. Perhaps the meal she had had earlier was too salty.
After touching the bedside table for a while, she recalled that there was no water on it.
It was a torment to get out of bed and go downstairs in the middle of the night.
Squinting her eyes, she walked out of the room and saw that there was some light at the staircase.
The lights in the living room had been turned on.
She remembered that the lights downstairs were turned off when she went up the stairs.
Unafraid, she walked over and leaned on the railing to take a look.
John was seated on the couch.
There were a bottle of wine and an empty glass on the table in front of the couch.
Frankly speaking, Sophia didn’t want to meet him face-to-face at that moment because she was still angry with what he had said to her that evening.
Nevertheless, she was unbearably thirsty.
Her rational mind told her that she would need to go downstairs.
John noticed her right as she stepped on the stairs.
Upon taking a look at her, he immediately retracted his gaze.
Resentful, Sophia slumped into her bed and covered herself with the quilt so that she could fall asleep quickly.
The problem couldn’t be solved even if she never slept.
However, even if she had fallen asleep, her worries continued to bug her in her dream.
She dreamed of John and Isabelle. He had gone to look for her unashamedly as they had a romantic date under the moonlight.
If she could control her dream, she would have pounced on them and beat them up.
In the dream, John was very gentle to Isabelle—a side he had never shown Sophia before.
Nevertheless, Sophia wasn’t upset at all as she had prepared herself psychologically to face this kind of situation.
At that moment, she just wanted to give John a piece of her mind.
After all, they still pretended to be married in public. While she was restrained, John was shamelessly dating another woman.

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...
