The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 704

Although Sophia didn’t know much about Logan’s driver, she figured she could trust him since Logan did. However, she had other concerns. “Isn’t it bad if we raise a ruckus in public? Why don’t we lure him to the parking lot where there are less people? Logan, instead of coming over to us, tell your driver to wait at the parking lot.”

Matilda couldn’t help but worry. “How should we lure him? Are you planning to act as bait? You’d better not do that, as I won’t know what to tell John if anything happens to you.”

Chuckling, Sophia said defiantly, “If it ever comes to that, all you have to do is act out like how your previous self did.” With that, Sophia stood from her seat. “Logan, stay put and observe the situation from here.” Upon saying so, Sophia reached for Matilda’s arm, so the latter had no choice but to go along with her plans.

They left the dessert shop together. As soon as they did so, the man who was searching for something stopped in his movements out of surprise, which made it apparent that he was indeed looking for them. Without sparing him a glance, both Matilda and Sophia headed for the lifts with their bags in hand, whereas the man followed behind them after lowering his cap.

Meanwhile, Logan wore a cold expression while standing up to follow the man, who was so focused on Sophia and Matilda that he didn’t notice he was being tailed as well. While Sophia and Matilda took the lifts, the man opted to go down the stairs, whereas Logan went downstairs on another lift. They soon arrived at the parking lot in the basement, after which Sophia and Matilda continued to walk at a leisurely pace, while the man caught up to them from behind.

Initially, he kept his distance, but upon noticing that there weren’t a lot of people around, the man hastened to get to Sophia. Meanwhile, both Sophia and Matilda were paying close attention to what was going on behind them. Matilda was so nervous that her palms were all sweaty, while her heart raced. She was also holding so hard onto Sophia’s arm that the latter nearly cried out in pain.
