Their rendezvous turned out to be a karaoke that Logan picked as he said he was a VIP member there, where he could get some discounts. After flagging down a cab, they hit the road and headed toward their destination. Soon, the driver asked, “Did you rub anyone the wrong way recently, ladies?”
Sophia paused, confused by the driver’s words. “Um… no? Who could we rub the wrong way?” Nevertheless, the driver only stared at both ladies from the rearview mirror without saying a single word. Not long after that, the car pulled up outside the karaoke, but when Sophia exited the cab, the driver reminded her about her safety. “Be careful because it’s getting late now. The street is no place for ladies like you two in the late night, so try to stick with your friends.”
While those words sounded like a friendly reminder to Sophia, she smiled and thanked the driver. As soon as they entered the karaoke, the driver drove off, clearly seeing the entrance from the rearview mirror. Then, he pulled over by the roadside and remained in the car.
Meanwhile, Logan was already waiting inside by the time Sophia and Robin arrived. Soon, they were greeted by a table of food and boxes of beers placed by the door. Besides, Logan was seen with two of his men whom he brought along from his clubhouse, and Sophia had known them since the last time they played poker together. Therefore, they hit it off pretty quickly, while Zack only arrived twenty minutes later. Nevertheless, it didn’t take him long to fit in as he was less reserved at that moment than his usual self.
Despite the exciting occasion, Sophia wasn’t blinded by it, learning from her previous experience in which Logan and the rest spent half a day looking for her after she got too drunk and wandered off. Therefore, she restrained herself from indulging in alcohol, this time with the incident deeply etched in her mind. No matter how many times Zack toasted her, she always waved her hand and turned him down. “Nah! I’m good. I’m actually still having a hangover from a few days ago, so if I drink more than I can handle now, I might be gone forever.”
Zack didn’t know what happened previously, so he only smiled and said, “Well, there are so many of us here, and you think we can’t take care of you? Come on, you’re worrying too much!”

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...
