Zack was also a bit surprised to see Isabelle. “Miss Bailey, did you come over with Mr. Constance?”
Without waiting for Isabelle to speak, John spoke up first. “I couldn’t get a cab and ran into Miss Bailey by coincidence. So, she gave me a ride.”
Zack nodded. Suddenly, he remembered that Sophia had called him the previous night, saying that John drank too much, so she asked him to go and take the drunkard away, but he was really tied up with something, which was why he didn’t go over.
Seeing that John didn’t have a car with him, Zack thought that he had probably stayed overnight at Sophia’s house. Thus, he glanced at John a little slyly.
Furrowing his brows, the latter gave Zack a warning glare before walking over to the counter. Sophia had arranged everything there in an orderly manner, which looked very pleasing to the eye.
Robin looked up at him and asked, “Why didn’t Sophia come here together with you? Didn’t she get enough rest?”
John nodded. “She should probably be here a little later in the day. It’s okay. Let Zack help out here today. If you have anything you need help with, just order him around as you wish.”
Zack bared his teeth. “What an evil capitalist!”
Isabelle stood there for a while, feeling somewhat awkward because nobody seemed to care about her presence at all. So, when everyone fell silent for a moment, she took the chance to say, “Guys, I have something to do, so I’ll take my leave first. Please carry on.”
Turning to her, John just said, “Okay.” He escorted her to the door and thanked her.
Then, Isabelle turned back to stare at John without a word for quite some time. John didn’t ask why either and simply returned her gaze calmly.
In the end, Isabelle laughed out loud. “I just realized that you’re not the same as what the rumors say.”
John raised a brow. “Oh? Really?”
Isabelle nodded. “Aren’t you curious about what people think of you?”

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...
