Aiden was indeed there. After everything in the shop had been removed yesterday, they were redecorating the walls today.
A carpenter had been hired to do the woodworks.
Sophia did not enter the shop which was dusty, so she stood by the door along with Aiden.
In his casual clothing, Aiden looked much younger than usual.
Inching closer, Sophia said, “Since there’s a professional here, I don’t think you have to supervise them constantly.”
Aiden chuckled at that. “Your ex-husband instructed me to supervise the renovation here closely to avoid any problems. This is your first time doing your own business, so he hopes that it will go smooth for you.”
Sophia was stunned before she snorted. “Are you kidding me? I feel like you’re lying to me.”
Aiden glared at her. “Why won’t you believe it? It doesn’t benefit me in any way to lie to you, and your ex-husband won’t raise my salary either. I’m telling the truth. To be honest, he had been keeping an eye on this ever since you had wanted to start your business. He had gone through all of the floor plans and instructed those professionals himself.”
Sophia’s mind went blank for a moment before she hugged her shoulder. “Yeah. I understand why he did it. John did promise Grandpa before he passed away to look after me.”
After her life became smooth sailing, John could finally live his own life in peace.
Without saying anything else, Aiden continued supervising the shop’s renovation.
Sophia stood there for a moment before her phone rang.
However, she couldn’t recognize the caller’s number.
Nonetheless, she still answered the call, “Hello.”
The person on the other end of the call spoke smoothly, “It’s me.”
Sophia jumped. “Dylan?!”
How did Dylan get her number? That really was a surprise for her.
Sophia could not regain her senses at that moment. “What’s wrong? Do you need anything?”
“It’s nothing.” Dylan chuckled. “I just wanted to ask why you’re not at the Constance Residence yet. I saw that John is already here.”
Instantly, Sophia cooked up an excuse, “My shop is still being renovated. I suddenly have some new ideas, so I came over to discuss it with the renovators. I’ll be heading there soon.”
“Is that so?” Dylan muttered. Then, he continued, “Be quick! We are all in the garden now. There aren’t many people here, but we’re all waiting for your arrival!”

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...
