The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 914

Isabelle was dressed modestly this time; a complete change from her previous flashy outfits.

The two of them chose to meet up at a cafe and ordered nothing else but coffee.

This meant that none of them were planning to stay for a long time.

John took the initiative to speak up first. “What happened? What do you want to tell me?”

Isabelle pushed her phone forward. “I don’t understand what these are, so can you investigate them for me? It’s hard for me to do it alone.”

However, John stared at Isabelle instead of her phone. “Are you sure that you trust me?”

Isabelle nodded, and she sounded genuine when she said, “Look at me. I have no one else around me and you’re the only one that I trust at this point.”

Isabelle looked lonely as she leaned back onto the chair and continued to say, “To be honest, I don’t have a lot of friends. I never had any free time since I was young to begin with, so I never had the chance to actually befriend anyone.”

Isabelle was raised as a debutante and her movements were restricted, so she wasn’t allowed to express herself nor mingle with other people.

Although Isabelle joined many dinner parties with Mrs. Bailey, they all had their own objectives. One could say that debutantes that often joined dinner parties had their own agendas, and none of them really treated each other as true friends.

Hence, Isabelle had been seriously reviewing herself for these past two days, and she realized that she wasn’t as good as Sophia in some aspects.

Sophia had Ian, as well as Logan, who would do anything for her.

Last night, she suddenly recalled Logan tearing the gown that she wanted to get that one time because of Sophia.

Although she was really pissed back then, she couldn’t help but feel envious of Sophia when she thought about it now.

Logan was notorious for his short temper that not even his father could control, but he had always treated Sophia nicely and protected her well.
