Lola was not interested in Logan at all, so she turned her gaze away.
After that, she found herself a place and sat down while massaging her injured shoulder in silence.
Only after stealing a few glances at Lola did Logan say, “What I told you is true. I really have the evidence. If you’re willing to listen to me, we can work together. Look at it this way. You want to fight crimes, and I wish to get rid of someone in there. So, our goals are aligned at some point.”
He slowed down in his speech. “Plus, this is a win-win situation for us. Did you not feel regretful that you didn’t manage to expose my hideout? I’m now giving you a chance, after your career change, to expose a hideout yourself. This den is even bolder than mine. When the time arrives, I’ll show you their financial statements. Then, you’ll finally know how large their business volume is.”
Learning about the possibility, she was momentarily silent.
Unfettered, Logan continued rambling, “Last time when I was here, I saw a colleague of yours around. He was quite mean to you, and I overheard everything he said. I think he was right. Look at you, it was good that you quit. After all, you’ve never had any significant achievements in the past. Right? Part of the reason people mock you is because of your lack of accomplishments.”
Suddenly, Lola turned around to glare at him with a threatening gleam in her eyes.
Logan’s mouth was agape, and he finally shut up after his long speech.
At noon, John went home on time.
He even got changed, and it was obvious that he freshened up because he looked clean.
As for Sophia, she was still scrolling her phone upstairs.
After greeting Matilda downstairs, John went up to his room.
Because he was tiptoeing around, Sophia, who was buried in her phone on the bed, didn’t notice the sound of him opening the door.
He left the door slightly ajar and peeked at her through the opening.
From his angle, Sophia’s bulging belly looked very obvious.
Instead of walking in, John crossed his arms and stood at the door, admiring his wife. She must have come across something amusing on the phone.
His lips curled up into a grin as he thought to himself, This young woman is getting more interesting by the day.

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...
