The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 906

At first, John thought that the file was work-related, but when he flipped it open, he realized that it was a report of the investigation they ran on the Baileys. It was too complicated, so John only skimmed through it before saying, “Just leave it here. I’ll slowly go through it. It’s so thick!”

Zack clicked his tongue at the comment. “Yeah, the Baileys have too many issues. I sent someone to investigate and opened a can of worms. How annoying! They even reported some insignificant details to me.”

John grunted. “Yeah, you’ve put in a lot of hard work.”

Zack was obviously tired as he replied, “I’ll leave you to deal with this. I’m heading back now—there are piles of work waiting for me.”

John sat in his chair for a while and made a call to Sophia. It took her some time to pick up the call, and she inquired if he was done with the Baileys. Frankly speaking, John didn’t need to do anything for the Baileys except for showing up. Thus, he replied, “Yeah, there’s nothing to deal with anymore. I just wanted to know what you’re doing.”

She told him that she wanted to meet with Matilda, for she couldn’t hold back her need to gossip and wanted to check with Matilda about the events from last night.

To that, John reminded her to be careful on the road. He agreed that she should meet up with Matilda, or else she’d be bored to death at home. Now, Sophia found good company in Matilda and they could chat with each other to relieve their boredom. The two didn’t chat further and hung up.

At home, Sophia went downstairs and ordered the bodyguard to drive her to Matilda’s place. Their car finally entered the highway halfway down the mountain when the driver warned, “Mrs. Constance, sit tight. I’m going to accelerate.”

She immediately understood his meaning and turned around to stare at the cars behind them. “There’s something wrong, am I right?”

At the back, Sophia felt a little afraid; she was mostly worried that something might happen to the baby she was carrying. Even though she had not reached the latest stage of pregnancy, she had suffered a lot during this journey. Please don’t let anything happen to the baby.
