John was equally sick of the food, but instead of leaving, he said, “Make something else next time. I’m getting sick of this.” The servant quickly obliged.
The old lady looked at the food, and when she saw all the beef in it, she smiled. It was a quiet meal, for she could see that John wasn’t happy either. However, she broke the ice. “Oh, someone told me it’s going to be Kate’s eightieth birthday in a few days. They’re going to hold a big celebration. We’ll be invited too. Do you want to go?”
John never liked these events, so he frowned. “Not really.”
His grandmother said okay, then she continued, “Logan might attend too. I heard his father is planning to introduce him to the guests there.”
John looked at her, surprised, but Belinda stared down into her plate. “Logan and Sophia seem to get along well.”
John tried to see what his grandmother was thinking, but since she wasn’t looking back, he could get no answers. A while later, he said, “Mrs. Blackwell is your friend, isn’t she, Grandma?”
“Yes, she is, but we don’t keep in touch that much now. You know how old people get. We don’t like moving around,” she lamented. Kate was older than her, so she stayed at home most of the time because of her deteriorating health.
“Will you go, Grandma?” John asked.
“Of course I will.” She smiled. “I was going to take you too, so I’m asking about it now.”
John kept eating his steak. “I’ll see how the day works out then.” That was an indirect agreement.

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...
