Had the Constances not called the Flintstones for help, John guessed that Matilda would be even more of a trouble. After taking in some mouthfuls of food, John placed his fork down and leaned into the chair to stare at Sophia and Robin, who were enjoying lunch. Noticing that he stopped eating, Robin looked at him. “You’re not eating?”
He couldn’t help but sigh. “I don’t have the appetite.”
The girls knew the reason behind his lack of appetite. When the internet exploded from the news, the netizens brought up John’s divorce and went over it again. The Constances had a good reputation in the past, but as a result of William and John, their family name was tainted.
Sophia got a little mad when she recalled Matilda’s expression from the video yesterday. Indeed, a woman like her would cause a lot of damage if she were to throw a fit. Taking a few bites, she placed her fork down as well. “Your grandmother must be super angry right now.”
John chuckled at the comment. Of course, she’s indeed furious. Yesterday, when he entered the main building, he found her pounding on her chest, saying that she felt stuffy. Beside her sat William with a sullen expression.
It was rare to see that expression on William. In the past, Matilda had created lots of trouble and threw many tantrums, to which William showed no response. He always preferred to muddle through the trouble, appeasing both the Constance Family and his wife. He had never clearly expressed his irritation at Matilda like how he did yesterday.
A while later, John stared at Robin. “I’ve sent someone to investigate your issue.”
Robin hurriedly looked at him, after which he elaborated in a robotic tone, “My men investigated within you and Sophia’s social circles but found nothing suspicious. I talked to the police as well, and they suspected that they’d got the wrong guy. However, I could not ascertain if the man specifically targeted one of you. It’s possible that you were targeted because of someone you didn’t even know. Do you remember who went to the washroom with you that night? Did someone wear a similar outfit as you?”
Sophia was surprised at the conclusion. Didn’t the man target her? A few days had passed since the incident, and Robin could not recall who she met at the washroom.

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...
