The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 424

Sophia let out a chuckle before remarking, “I was searching for Isabelle a while ago. She’s also a disciplined young lady, but I can’t seem to find her anywhere too, so perhaps…” Despite not finishing her sentence, her smile seemed to indicate that John and Isabelle might’ve snuck away together.

However, the mention of John reminded Sophia of what he did to her last night, as well as of her dream, which made her sulk. “It’s better if they’re not around. I don’t want to see them anyway.”

Meanwhile, Logan was still mumbling to himself in a low voice about the Morgan siblings. Afterall, he was a petty person, so he wouldn’t feel satisfied until he had gotten rid of them. Sophia merely grunted in agreement. After a while, he was still pushing on the swing from behind, but Logan had ceased his chatter altogether.

“Logan? Why are you so quiet?” asked Sophia.

He merely grunted in response. “I should stop talking about those two, as it only makes me feel worse.” There was some truth to his words, as he had better things to do than talk about the Morgan siblings.

After heaving a sigh, Sophia said, “To be honest, I would prefer to spend my birthdays alone with my closest friends and family rather than throwing a party. This is just too much of a bother.”

Her comment was met with a smile from Logan, who said nothing else after giving her a grunt. Meanwhile, Sophia leaned on one of the slings of the swing while observing the passersby in silence, as she wasn’t in the mood to speak. Besides, it was no place for a private conversation as waiters were constantly passing by.

Sophia didn’t realize when Logan had left, as she didn’t hear any sound or movements. In the meantime, John seemed to have noticed her confusion, as he said with a smile on his face, “I told him to leave without disturbing you.”

There was a sullen expression on Sophia’s face while she glanced at John’s face, as she seemed to have recalled what happened the night before. Her expression reminded John of what transpired between them as well, to which he responded with a silent laugh before tapping on his own lips when he walked up to Sophia.

That shameless b*stard! Sophia was fuming at the fact that he even dared mention the incident, but she averted her gaze moments later. In the meantime, Isabelle walked up to her with a sincere smile on her face, as if having totally forgotten about her conflict with Sophia in the boutique, as well as her grim conversation with John over the phone. “I saw you both as soon as I came out from the reception hall. This is such a coincidence.”
