The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 421

Ian’s last line was directed toward Sophia, to which she nodded in response. “Alright, I get what you mean. I will be more careful from now on.” Sophia agreed to what Ian told her. Having spent a day in Logan’s clubhouse, it wasn’t until after they had dinner that they left the place.

Before they left, Logan reminded Sophia, “Remember to wake up earlier tomorrow, as we have a birthday party to attend.”

Upon giving Logan a nod, Sophia said, “Sure, I will.” Kate Blackwell’s birthday party was held the following day, which Sophia had been preparing for. She even booked an appointment with a makeup artist to make sure she would look her best during the occasion, as she couldn’t afford to make a single mistake during an occasion in which prominent figures would be present.

Sophia left the clubhouse on a cab despite Logan’s offer to drive her home. Judging from his character, she knew Logan would spend an indefinite amount of time moping around when they arrived at her house, so she stopped him from doing so, as she was planning on retiring to bed as soon as she got home. It didn’t seem to bother Logan, as he gave up on the idea upon witnessing Sophia’s reluctance.

Sophia was getting drowsy while on her way home. After paying the fare, she alighted from the cab and headed to her house. The lights in her house weren’t lit when she entered after unlocking the door. Subsequently, nothing seemed out of place when she switched on the lights. Dozily, she then made her way upstairs with a bottle of water, which she retrieved from the kitchen, in hand.

Everything seemed fine when she arrived at the door to her room, only for her to cry out in shock as soon as she switched on the lights because there was someone standing by the window. However, the figure didn’t shy away from her, instead opting to turn around to meet her while wearing a frown. “I’ve been standing here ever since you got back. Do you never check the window of your room?”
