The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 858

Shortly after Logan was gone to get himself refreshed, Richard arrived. Meanwhile, Sophia shifted her gaze across everyone else and reached for her phone. “I’m going to give Robin a call and invite them both to come over. Since we’re all friends here, there is no reason to leave the two of them out.” John smiled in agreement but was aware of how things could go wrong with so many people present at the same time. While the restaurant was just opposite Logan’s clubhouse, they all left their rides right where they were parked and crossed the road straightaway.

In the meantime, Matilda decided to stay behind and directly said she wished to wait for William. Upon hearing William’s name, Richard couldn’t help but feel a little shocked, even though he subtly tried to hide his feelings. After a brief pause, he smiled at Matilda and volunteered to wait with her. “Oh, I’ll stay behind with you then. You’re probably going to be bored waiting here alone.”

Sophia shot a gaze at Richard, finding him quite a chivalrous gentleman. As the rest of them made their way to the seafood restaurant, John sat beside Sophia and ordered some snacks before wiping her fingers with some wet wipes. “God knows how dirty your hands were after touching those cards.”

Sophia laughed it off and replied, “Oh, I almost forgot about that.”

Helpless, John opined with a smile, “Well, I hope our son doesn’t pick up all your bad habits.”

Sophia was instantly rendered speechless by John’s reply. I thought he was going to have a word with Ian and resolve their differences like two mature men, but it seems that I was wrong to think that way. He just won’t stop putting down Ian in an implicit manner. For that, I must say that it’s a bad call to invite John along.
