Sophia didn’t want to listen to what happened last night, so she quickly stopped him. “What happened isn’t reflective of my true feelings. The atmosphere was pretty good at that time, so I just went along with it. There’s no further meaning to it. After eating, you should just go do what you have to do. Don’t you have some company matters to handle? Go ahead and deal with it. I don’t need you to take care of my shop.”
It was clear that Sophia was subtly rejecting him again. John wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he decided not to. Considering how Sophia had finally relented last night, he couldn’t be too pushy about things either. Thus, he nodded. “Alright.”
After the meal, they left the restaurant together. Sophia strolled back home first, while John did not follow her but attempted to hail a cab by the roadside.
Seeing this, Isabelle drove past him at once. She parked the car next to John and lowered the window. “John, what a coincidence.”
John was stunned to see her, but he just nodded. “Yeah, fancy meeting you here.”
Isabelle pretended to know nothing. “What’s up? Are you hailing a cab? I can give you a ride.”
However, John didn’t get into the car right away. Instead, he merely looked at her. “Are you going to meet a client?”
“No.” Isabelle laughed and explained, “My brother has a class, so I sent him there.”
John nodded. Looking around him, he realized that there weren’t many cabs on the road at this hour. So, he got into the backseat of the car. “I’ll sit at the back. It wouldn’t be good if we’re photographed sitting together in front.”
Isabelle looked like she had only just thought of this and commented, “You’re the thoughtful one.”
Then, she started driving away. As the car traveled along the road, she asked, “Are you going to the company or the Constance Residence?”
John turned around and looked out the window. “Go to Sophia’s shop. She’s not going over today, so I’ll check out the situation and maybe help out.”

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...
