The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 892

Isabelle patted her mother carefully as if she was consoling a child while the latter looked like she was in a daze as her sobs slowly died down.

However, Elder Mr. Bailey’s facial expression remained indifferent as he turned around and left after giving them a few glances.

After Elder Mr. Bailey’s figure disappeared from the doorway, Sophia slowly turned around before sneaking a glance.

She helped her mother to her bed and tucked her in before coaxing her gently so that she could rest well.

Then, Sophia left her mother’s room before she tiptoed toward her father’s room.

Old Mr. Bailey’s room had always been left wide open as they were afraid that he might be too harsh on himself and do something stupid.

This time, however, Sophia noticed that the door to Old Mr. Bailey’s room was closed slightly as Elder Mr. Bailey and Old Mr. Bailey sat inside.

It seemed like her grandfather had been trying to lecture her father for a while now as he continued giving advice, but her father refused to say anything.

Finally, Elder Mr. Bailey sighed and lamented, “If Sophia is still together with John, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.”

At that, Old Mr. Bailey looked like he finally came back to his senses.

Elder Mr. Bailey’s voice sounded cold as he continued saying, “If John had married Belle, this obviously wouldn’t have happened to our family.”

Old Mr. Bailey probably never expected Elder Mr. Bailey to mention this as he pondered for a moment before agreeing.

However, Old Mr. Bailey’s voice was hoarse and sounded as if he was really stricken.

Elder Mr. Bailey added on again, “Back when Belle was engaged with John, I could already see that you stopped being so strict toward Dexter. However, you have put a lot of pressure on Dexter after that because John married another woman. At that time, you couldn’t tell if Belle’s future husband would help Dexter or not, so I believe that was why you became strict on him.”

Isabelle, who was standing by the door, frowned. The way Elder Mr. Bailey worded himself made it sound like everything that happened was John’s fault.
