With her eyes filled with tears, the young girl curled up in one corner of the room. Seeing Sophia, she trembled in fright. The young girl, who was only ten years old, hadn’t experienced this kind of ordeal before, so she was frightened.
Walking up to her, Sophia crouched down.
With a fearful expression, the young girl stared at Sophia as her tears streamed down her face. She doesn’t look like me at all. No one could have guessed that we were born from the same mother, Sophia thought.
Knowing Sophia’s identity, the young girl stammered, “I-I didn’t want to come. S-She forced me to come with her. I was at school when she requested a leave for me.” As she was speaking, she avoided meeting Sophia’s eyes.
However, Sophia didn’t like the way the young girl shifted all the blame to her mother. If she really didn’t want to come, Kay would never have been able to threaten her into doing so. With an impassive face, Sophia extended her hand and clenched the young girl’s chin to make the latter meet her eyes.
Horrified, the young girl shrieked hysterically.
Hearing that, Kay became flustered in an instant. “Soph, don’t hurt your sister!” With a hoarse voice, she yelled in a way that was almost unintelligible.
Ignoring her, Sophia exerted more force on her hand, which caused the young girl to scream louder.
Kay kept yelling until she couldn’t help but start bawling. In a weakened voice, she pleaded, “Blame it all on me if you hate me. Don’t hurt a young and innocent girl…”
A young and innocent girl? I don’t think so, Sophia thought cold-bloodedly. She remembered that when Kay gave her a phone call and made the young girl call her ‘sister’, the young girl did as she was told. When Kay asked the young girl to sing for Sophia, she obeyed the order as well.
If she really didn’t want to be dragged into this, she shouldn’t have played along with Kay in the first place. Now that they’re not able to extort money from me, she’s claiming this young girl is innocent? That’s ridiculous, Sophia thought.
Standing in the doorway, John kept watch on Sophia, for he was afraid that the young girl might harm her. Well, it seems that it’s the other way round now. Gazing at Sophia, John felt sorry for her.

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...
