Sophia was still a little unsure about what decision to make, as it would be a lie to say that she was unaffected by John’s unwavering support of her as of recent. With a heart as soft as hers, she was touched upon witnessing the great lengths that John was willing to go to in order to win her back.
However, to start over with him remained a challenge to her. Public opinion aside, she couldn’t find it in herself to start over a new chapter with John without first addressing what happened before. After dwelling on it repeatedly, she gave a vague reply, “I don’t know, as I haven’t made up my mind.”
“Sophia.” Ian spoke. “Can you… Can you withhold your decision and wait for me?”
Startled, Sophia frowned without intending to upon hearing what he said. He went on, “Wait till the competition ends. I have something that I need to talk over with you when I get back, please.”
After a few moments, Sophia chuckled as she tried to put on a casual front. “What is it that you’d like to tell me? You can always tell me over the phone.”
Ian heaved a sigh before questioning, “Sophia, do you really not know what I’m trying to say, or are you just running away?”
As soon as he said so, John called out to her from the kitchen as he couldn’t seem to find the seasoning for cooking. John spoke loudly, so Ian must’ve heard him, whereas Sophia took it as an opening to end their call. “Alright, I have other things to do, so I’ll be hanging up. You should train hard and try your best to get a nice rank.”
After having said so, Sophia responded to John’s call from the kitchen before hanging up. However, he seemed to already find the seasoning he needed when she got to the kitchen. Without even looking at her, he asked while busying himself with cooking, “Who was on the line? Was it Ian?”

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...
