John tossed his phone up in the air and caught it repeatedly. After giving it a thought, he decided to send his subordinate a message. Basically, he taught them what they could do if faced with a similar situation in the future.
Then, he took a seat in front of his computer and reread the files Isabelle had sent him some time ago. It was difficult to track the other party’s account since the money was transferred from overseas. However, some regular patterns could be deduced, like how frequently the money was transferred.
Since there were many files, it was until the middle of the night when he managed to finish reading all of them.
Knocking on his forehead gently, John rose from the chair and returned to the bedroom. Sophia’s sleeping position had changed as her legs stuck out from under the quilt.
After a sigh, John adjusted the quilt for her and lay down beside her.
A moment later, Sophia draped her arms around his waist and mumbled, “You’re slow.”
John giggled at the words Sophia had uttered in her dream. Perhaps it was a sign of her reliance on him. Gratified, John hugged her back and grinned before he dozed off as well.
While John was filled with happiness, Isabelle was in a miserable situation.
During dinner, Isabelle’s mother, Philippa Bailey, was sobbing again. She said that she recalled the times when all her family members could enjoy dinner together. Now that Dexter had passed away, she was sorrowful that her son’s usual seat was currently empty.
Her sorrow was understandable, but she cried so frequently that Elder Mr. Bailey and her husband had grown impatient with her.
Holding her mother’s hands, Isabelle said, “Mom, stop living in the past and think for your own future. You still have your own life to live.”

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...
