On the other hand, Isabelle was beginning to feel worried deep down as she recalled that John had seen and known Dexter. He must have seen someone who looks exactly like Dexter, or he wouldn’t have called. At the thought of that, Isabelle quickly called Dexter’s school to confirm her suspicion.
Nevertheless, her brother’s teacher appeared to be unaware of the matter. “Dexter said he wasn’t feeling well, so he was permitted to leave the class and rest in the infirmary, but we don’t know where he really went after that.”
The teacher’s reply unnerved Isabelle even more, so she quickly asked the schoolteacher to help find Dexter. After that, she made another call to Dexter, but to no avail, as no one picked up the phone. Soon, she anxiously stood up and left her office in a hurry, running into Old Mr. Bailey in the corridor.
At that time, Old Mr. Bailey happened to be discussing some important matter with his assistant in a solemn manner. When he saw Isabelle in a panic, he knitted his brows and asked, “What’s wrong? Why do you look so panicky?”
Isabelle had no idea why her fingers wouldn’t stop shivering. She then gazed at Old Mr. Bailey and told him her concern. “I can’t reach Dexter. I’m worried about him.”
Nonetheless, Old Mr. Bailey appeared unconcerned about that as he waved his hand. “That little brat is probably hiding somewhere because he is upset or something. He’ll be fine after a while.” After that, he summoned his assistant to his office and walked away, but not before telling Isabelle something. “That spoiled kid needs to learn how to appreciate his good life and stop creating trouble!”
While Old Mr. Bailey dismissed Isabelle’s suspicion, she still couldn’t put her mind to ease. After brief contemplation, she decided to leave the office and make her way to Dexter’s school. On her way there, she received a call from the teacher, who told her that Dexter had just gone missing and that the school had dispatched the other teachers to search for him.

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...
