Sophia treated everyone around her very well, except for John, whom she was pretty harsh toward. While sitting in the garden earlier, she had been reflecting on this.
People were often like this; they often treated those whom they cared about or those who cared about themselves harshly. On the other hand, they were more tolerant toward other people around them.
This was not a good thing.
Sophia took the phone and walked outside the main building. By then, the call had stopped.
So, she called John back.
John immediately picked it up over there. With a smile, he asked her what she was doing. Sophia’s voice sounded very gentle as she told him that she was having lunch with Old Mrs. Constance and Matilda.
John was smart enough to tell from Sophia’s voice that she was showing him some leniency. So, he quickly explained why he didn’t go home at noon on this day. He said he was eating out with Zack.
Sophia chuckled. “I know. I understand that you’re busy over there. It doesn’t matter. In fact, you don’t have to come back at noon all the time. Your break isn’t that long; don’t waste it travelling back and forth.”
John lowered his voice. “But I want to see you.” His flirtatious words came anytime and anywhere, and Sophia was already used to it. So, she simply said, “We can do video calls instead.”
She sensed that John was standing up and leaving his initial position. Then, there was some sort of echo over there before John began to speak again. “I may have to be in frequent contact with Isabelle soon. She has investigated some matters about her grandfather, and the two of us have to share the information. I’m telling you this in advance because I’m afraid you’ll be upset about it.”
Hmph. Will he stop communicating with the person if I’m unhappy about it? Still, Sophia didn’t voice out what she thought. Instead, she took a deep breath and said, “I hope you two will talk in front of me in the future. It’s not that I’m worried about what you’ll do. I just felt really uncomfortable and I couldn’t sleep well last night.”

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...
