The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
Chapter 334

"What kind of person is she?" John cut her off. "Tell me, what sort of person is Sophia?"

Mrs. Constance gave him a flinty stare and countered, "Do I still need to point that out for you? Just look at her family background and you will know what I mean. If your grandfather had not insisted on you marrying her back then, a girl like her is just fated to live a peasant life in a village and work hard for the rest of her life."

Staring at her, John sniggered, "Without the social status you are blessed with thanks to your parents, in which aspect do you think are you more talented than Sophia?"

Mrs. Constance was left stumped by his question and she stared incredulously at him.

In fact, John also realized he had spoken too harshly with Mrs. Constance.

However, he just felt the need to vent out his frustration.

John continued, "You see yourself as outstanding and someone who's superior to everyone else just because you were born in a good family. Would you have everything you owned now if you weren't born with such a good family background?"

Staring at John, Mrs. Constance could not come up with an answer.

Heaving out a heavy sigh, John pressed on, "Try to reflect on your life so far. Other than marrying my Dad, have you done anything commendable on your own? You should think about your own image in the perception of your relatives as well as the maids at home before you start judging other people."

With that, John lifted his suitcase and headed upstairs.

He made his way to his room and stopped by the door of the room next to his.

That room was used by Sophia before. During her brief stay, she had managed to have a great fall-out with Mrs. Constance.

John pushed the door to the room open and peeked inside.

The inside looked totally different from how it used to be because everything had been changed.

The bed sheet, duvet, the fleece carpet on the floor as well as the dressing table were missing.

He reckoned that it must have been Mrs. Constance's arrangement.

After looking at the room, John felt even more frustrated.

Then, he closed the door and returned to his room.

After putting aside his suitcase, he sat down at the edge of the bed.

He was in no mood to browse through the news on the internet because he was sure he was being criticized very badly by the public.

William called a short while later, informing him that a statement had just been issued by Constance Group to clarify his relationship with Isabelle.

The statement made clear that John's relationship with Isabelle was nothing more than pure working partners, and they were not involved romantically. As for the picture in which Isabelle and John were captured being intimate with each other, Isabelle was too frightened at the time the car accident happened and she only huddled toward John reflexively.

In fact, many people found the statement unconvincing.

They were adamant that John and Isabelle must be having some dubious relationship with each other.

Other than informing John about the statement, William also wanted him to give Sophia a call and ask her whether she was willing to offer some clarification to the public.

Since she was one of the parties involved in this matter, her words would carry more weight if she was willing to clear things up.

Holding his phone, John responded, "I'll ask her that later. Right now, I just want to get some rest because I'm tired."

Knowing that John had not slept a wink last night, William sighed, "Well, go ahead and get some sleep then. Don't take the scandal too seriously because I believe it will cool down sooner or later. Also, it will soon be forgotten by the public."

John did not answer him. Instead, he only switched off his phone before falling onto his bed.

As he was having a slight headache at the moment, he didn't feel like thinking about anything.

Meanwhile, Sophia had spring-cleaned her place because she had nothing better to do. In fact, there was nothing much to be cleaned because she didn't usually occupy other areas of the house as much. She only decided to do that out of boredom.

After busying herself around the house for the entire afternoon, she finally stopped to take a break when it was just before dusk.

She was glad that the day was finally over.
