The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
Chapter 403

The first floor's lights were out, but not on the second floor. A while later, he saw Sophia pulling the blinds down. John sighed, then he lit a cigarette.

He was in a good mood on this day, for he managed to stop lan's confession in time. Even though he didn't know why he felt good about that, he did know Sophia didn't cross him even though she was rude. These couple of days had been frustrating for him, but he didn't know the reason. Everything vexed him, though that feeling was gone now. He then tossed his half-smoked cigarette away and took his phone out.

There was a new friend request for him, and it was from Sophia. He praised himself for this smart move, then he changed his profile picture and name. Since Sophia was having her guard up against him, if she noticed him adding her back, she'd block him again. But she isn't really smart though. Having her guard up is all she has. John then patted the driver on the back.

The driver stirred and woke up. "You're back, Sir."

John grunted. "Let's go."

On the other hand, Sophia was looking at her bank balance. She was in a dilemma now that John transferred more money to her. If his mother replaces out, she's going to cause a ruckus again. D*mn that old hag. Sophia wanted to hit something at the thought of Matilda. Then, she logged in to her Facebook.

Logan had sent her pictures of dresses and asked her to pick one. Man, his aesthetics is just... Sophia thought the dresses looked tacky, so she told him she'd personally take a look the next day. 'Will John attend the banquet too?' she then texted Logan.

Logan called her back. "I think so. This is for the best, I think. Once you guys meet up and talk a bit, those paparazzis will have a new scoop, then both you and his names will be cleared."

She snorted. "How thoughtful of you." Feeling bored, she then went through her friend list. There wasn't much to see though, since she could count her number of friends with two hands, but then she paused. When did this guy pop up? When did I add him? She had no recollection of that. So, she tried to look into his profile, but she didn't think she saw that profile picture before, nor was his name familiar. Her friend list had never shrunk, but she had indeed added some of the Constances before. Those guys haven't unfriended me? She frowned.

Logan continued, "It's fine. Just face him as you would. I think this is your chance."

"Yeah, yeah. I think so too." Sophia tried to scroll through his wall, but nothing came up. That night was spent chatting with Logan and checking this new guy, then she drifted to sleep halfway through. She woke up the next morning, dazed. After lying for a while more, she went to pull the curtains back. Nice weather today. She snapped a photo and posted it on her wall.

It wasn't like Sophia to post on her wall, for she had no friends, but then she uploaded more frequently recently. She wanted John to see her posts, but he probably never scrolled through his feed. That guy downloads these apps for nothing. After tidying up, she went to see Logan. At the same time, Logan was still sleeping in his clubhouse.
