The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 982

Old Mrs. Constance nodded at her remark. “You’re right. A marriage can’t be rushed.”

With Sophia’s help, the conversation about Logan’s marriage finally came to an end.

Logan rubbed his hands and appeared flustered. Obviously, he was feeling extremely uncomfortable eating together with them this time. In the past, he never cared much about public displays of affection, but now, every time he came across it, he would feel a little bothered.

This was especially because his sister called him two nights ago. In the call, Lorraine told him that their father’s health was not well lately, and that he had been talking about his only wish—to see Logan getting married.

Lorraine sounded nice over the call. Neither did she get angry nor order him to do anything about it. However, the call left Logan feeling bad.

It was true that his father’s health was declining. Their family doctor even lived in the room next to his in order to monitor his condition.

Old Mr. Jefferson had always been talking about Logan’s marriage, but Logan never saw it as a big deal.

When the topic was brought up again under the current circumstances, Logan felt it differently.

The dinner at the Constances’ place didn’t go on for long. When it was about to end, John and Logan both stood up.

Sophia knew that the two had other matters to tend to, but Old Mrs. Constance did not understand the situation. So, she looked at John and Logan. “Why did you two finish dinner in a haste? You didn’t eat much either.”

In response, John took a napkin to wipe his hand. “I’m full now. Plus, I don’t want to overeat at night. I’ve been suffering from indigestion over the past two days.”

Logan nodded and grunted in agreement. “Yes, yes, we’ll have indigestion. It’s better to eat less.”

Sophia almost laughed out loud. Of course, she knew that Logan was definitely not suffering from indigestion; he merely found the conversation at the dinner table difficult.

After hearing their explanation, Old Mrs. Constance did not object to them leaving.

Therefore, John and Logan both went into the study upstairs.
