Sophia nodded at him. “Go ahead then.”
With that, she made her way to the dining hall. John happened to have made it back with the divorce certificate and divorce agreement in his hands by the time she walked out again.
At the same time, Logan and Ian were serving food to the dining table.
Logan greeted John as soon as he saw him, “Come over here, John. You’re here at the right time because we’ve prepared a lot of food today for the steamboat.”
Sophia cast Logan an inquisitive glance as she wondered what was in his mind.
Didn’t he know how things were currently between John and her? Why did he behave as though nothing had happened?
John first looked at Ian before answering with a smile, “I’m afraid I can’t stay because I still have something to attend to. Please enjoy yourselves.”
Sophia, who could detect that he sounded a little upset when he said the last three words, cast him a glance but didn’t make any comment.
John then left the place with the stuff and got into his car which was parked in front of the gate. Then, he drove for some distance away before pulling to a stop again.
Inside the car, he lit up a cigarette as he observed Sophia’s place from the rearview mirror.
It seemed like their divorce had really freed Sophia from misery because she looked so much happier than before.
After he finished smoking the cigarette, he closed his eyes to clear his mind before driving away because there was nothing more to see.
He headed straight back to Constance Residence having nowhere else to go.
His father wasn’t home yet and John reckoned he had gone out to attend some social gathering. Meanwhile, the people of the other three families were at home because their cars were in the garage.
Dylan was there as well, and he was leaning against his car while holding a cigarette butt.
When John moved his car into the garage, Dylan threw the cigarette butt away and looked at John with his arms crossed in front of his chest.
When John got out of his car, he glanced at Dylan quizzically and asked, “Do you have something to tell me?”
Dylan chuckled, “I didn’t before this but when I saw you, I suddenly thought of something.” Looking amiable, he remarked, “I just found out that you and Sophia already divorced each other a long time ago.”

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...
