John’s expression remained dark. After Sophia went upstairs, he told his grandmother that he had to go to work. However, after driving his car out of the residence, he did not head for the company. In fact, on his way to his destination, he gave Isabelle a call.
Isabelle was surprised that John was calling her. At that moment, she was seated on the couch in the living room, and her grandfather was just some distance away.
Hearing the phone call, Elder Mr. Bailey turned to Isabelle, who then showed the screen to him and said, “It’s John.”
Upon learning that it was John’s phone call, he nodded in delight and said, “Go on. Talk to him.”
With an embarrassed expression, Isabelle rose from the couch and pointed outside.
Thinking that she was shy to be talking to John over the phone in front of him, her grandfather nodded.
After stepping out of the house, Isabelle picked up the call. “Yes?”
John then told her what Sophia had encountered previously and asked her if anything was amiss with her family members.
Startled for a moment, Isabelle gave it a thought and said, “Something does feel off for the past two days. My grandpa and my dad would always have discussions behind closed doors. I tried to eavesdrop on their conversations, but I couldn’t hear anything.”
Hesitated for a while, she then continued, “I’ve been trying to look for a chance to talk to my dad. I hope to persuade him to give up those family businesses and turn over a new leaf. John, please understand what I’ve been going through. By then, I hope you’ll forget your grudges with my family members.”

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...
