The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 569

With an affirmative grunt, William assured, “Don’t you worry. I know what I should do.”

After sitting around for a little while longer, William had left to get busy.

John read through the documents once more. This time, he reckoned that the client wasn’t that great, so it really wasn’t necessary for them to go on this business trip together.

Then again, after thinking it through, John didn’t oppose the idea of hitting the road, because it was true that both William and him had quite a rough week. Too much overwhelming matters!

While he was busy with his own work, his office door was opened again by someone.

Lifting his head to take a quick glance, John said, “Is there…” When he saw who it was, he swallowed his words and rose from his seat. “Aunt Jennifer, what brings you here?”

Gazing at John, Lady Jennifer grinned. “I just happened to pass by your building, so I thought of coming up here to see Dylan. Unfortunately, he isn’t around, so I came here.”

Walking out from behind his office desk, John had led Lady Jennifer to take a seat at the couch. “Aunt Jennifer, please take a seat.”

From the looks of it, John could tell that his Aunt Jennifer wasn’t here by coincidence, and there was something she intended to discuss.

Once they were seated, Lady Jennifer heaved a heavy sigh. “Actually, I was just around the corner to meet a friend. She has a daughter whose age is about the same as Dylan. I’ve met her daughter before, and I like her very much, so I was thinking of introducing her to Dylan.

My friend had gladly agreed to the suggestion, so I’m here to ask for Dylan’s opinion, but he isn’t around. I tried calling him, but he didn’t pick up. Seriously, this boy of mine has no thoughts of settling down at all. It really gets on my nerves!”

Frustrated, Lady Jeniffer said, “A woman who he really likes? Indeed, it’s important, but in reality, it’s not feasible at all, because we still have to put other matters into consideration. The women I’ve selected are all pretty, and all of them are brought up from well-known families. Won’t that suffice? What does he mean by looking for a woman he really likes anyway?”

Uh… That’s rather difficult to put into words, John thought.

Before he could answer, Lady Jennifer gazed at him and continued, “How have you been lately? I’ve read the news over the Internet; it was totally absurd. I guess it must have affected you somehow. Knowing you’re single now, the paparazzi certainly won’t let it rest.

Anyway, I’ll just be honest with you since we’re family. Though you’re divorced, you really should give yourself a second chance, and you should weigh your options more carefully next time.

When it comes to finding a lifetime partner, I strongly believe that affections can be cultivated. This is why I think that it’s not necessary to place too much emphasis on conditions before marriage. In any case, feelings can be cultivated after marriage.”
