Sulking, John stood to step on the man’s ribs. “Who sent you here?”
Standing beside him, Sophia turned to look at John in shock. “Did somebody send him?”
As if not hearing John’s question, the man was still huffing in pain while lying on the ground, clutching onto his elbow with a tortured look on his face. John’s kick came in unanticipated, so the man must’ve tried to brace the impact out of reflex by using his elbow. When his elbow hit the ground, it produced a tiny, crisp noise, which was followed by excruciating pain.
However, it was none of John’s concern as he continued to apply pressure onto the man’s ribs. “Who’s behind you?”
A crowd was starting to gather around them, with the people whispering among themselves in confusion. John ran his tongue over his teeth while he sniggered. “I have other ways to extract information from you, so your silence isn’t going to help.”
Holding onto the man’s phone, John made a call from his own phone. The crowd dispersed upon seeing that the incident was nothing out of the ordinary, as they assumed John was calling either the police or an ambulance. On the other hand, the man’s elbow was hurting so much that he couldn’t even retaliate.
Taking a deep breath, she realized her stomach wasn’t feeling good after all the tension. It didn’t take long for a car to pull over, from which sprung out a few men. She assumed back then that John gave Zack a call, but that didn’t seem to be the case, as she knew none of the men.
As soon as the men arrived on the scene, John retracted his leg before waving dismissively. “Take him away.” Without even putting up a fight, the man was carried away into the car. Meanwhile, John held Sophia in his arms. “You must be frightened.”
Sophia clutched onto the hem of his shirt while humming in response. “I want to go home.”

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...
