After the waiter had left, Sophia said, “I saw a guy with her. They met up at the front door for a moment before going in.”
“A guy?” Matilda frowned. “You must be seeing things.”
It was impossible for Mrs. Bailey to go out with a man. She was an arrogant woman who cared about her pedigree, so she would never go out with another man without her husband beside her. Sophia wasn’t sure either, for she only had a glimpse. It could be possible she got the wrong person.
Taken aback, Matilda got to her feet and went to look outside the window, but there was nothing to be seen for the moment. “You must have gotten the wrong person,” she mumbled. “I don’t think she’d do that.”
Sophia leaned back against the chair and played along. “I guess. I only had a glimpse, so I’m not sure. I’m getting stupider these days, and my eyes are playing tricks on me.” Even so, Matilda looked on for a while before coming back to her spot. The waiter then came with their water, and Sophia poured a glass for her and Matilda. “You must have gotten along with Mrs. Bailey well.”
Matilda picked her glass up. “Yes. I used to adore Isabelle, so I got along with the Baileys. That’s why Mrs. Bailey has been polite to me.”
Not now she isn’t though. Since their meeting in the shopping mall back then, she knew Mrs. Bailey disliked her, for she had gotten along with Sophia and ditched Isabelle.
Sophia looked outside, and a plan hatched in her mind. “Do you know Mrs. Bailey’s car, then?”
“Well, of course I do.”
Why did you have to drag him into this?

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...
