The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 988

Even the nurse had been tortured by him mentally.

Initially, the doctor warned Husky to watch what he would be consuming as he was injured badly, but in the end, he couldn’t take it anymore, so he forced the nurse to buy him braised pork; a lot of it.

All of John’s underlings were quite surprised when John took Husky in, as the guy was obviously too impulsive, and these types of people would easily make mistakes.

However, though Husky’s character made him easier to make mistakes, it would also make other people lower their defences around him. For example, his success in sneaking into the shadow bank itself this time was evident enough to show what he was capable of.

Sophia recalled that time Husky trespassed into her house and tried to pull a sneak attack on her. That man is really dumb sometimes. Still, sometimes, it’s easier for these people to do something great.

Then, John mentioned Roselia and said that although Husky and her got into trouble together, Roselia managed to get herself out of trouble, unlike Husky.

Roselia shouldn’t be underestimated as a woman as she had a seductive body and was a smooth talker, so it was easy for her to manipulate them to protect herself.

This was Sophia’s first time hearing John mention Roselia, so she was confused. “Who’s Roselia? Is she working together with Husky?”

It was only now that John realized that he had never mentioned Roselia to Sophia before, so he explained the situation after contemplating for a moment. “Roselia is a girl that I met previously and she infiltrated the shadow bank along with Husky this time.”

He paused at this as his facial expression turned conflicted before he added, “Remember the previous scandal about me leaving the bar along with a girl? That was Roselia.”

Sophia stopped eating right then as she stared at John without saying anything.

Immediately, John knew what she was thinking about, so he hurriedly explained, “Roselia is just my worker and there’s nothing between us. I can swear to you.”

Then, Old Mrs. Constance glanced at the two of them before she spoke up. “You should bring her back some day to let me see her. After all, she had helped you and we should express our gratitude.”

Hearing that, John turned toward his grandmother and explained himself further. “I did pay her for working for me, so it doesn’t really count as helping me. We don’t have any personal relationship besides being work partners.”
