The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

To be honest, this matter was not difficult to comprehend. Although Sophia was not in the business, she had vast second-hand experience.

When she was still part of the Constance Family, Mrs. Constance liked to tell stories related to the business during dinner, detailing all sorts of underhanded methods and conspiracies. Hence, she heard a lot about these incidences and naturally understood what John was saying immediately.

Thus, she lifted her brows at John. “Are they trying to blackmail you with last night’s incident? They don’t know that we are divorced yet, so you want to claim that last night’s incident was legal and moral?”

John nodded. “Yes, that’s right. They probably checked the surveillance footage…”

It was such a large dinner party, and John was considered to be one of the main characters. Seeing as he disappeared mid-way through the party, they would definitely check the surveillance footage to check on his whereabouts.

More importantly, they would naturally detect Sophia’s presence from the surveillance footage. Therefore, there were no loopholes in his alibi.

Well, as long as nobody finds out that we are divorced.

Sophia mulled over it. “So what do you want?”

Zack came closer and stood by the door. He had been listening in on their conversation. When he heard her question, he answered, “At the moment, your divorce cannot be made known to the public. At this critical juncture, it doesn’t matter what the reason for your divorce was.

It will become fuel for our enemies. So, you have to maintain the image of a young couple in love for the time being.”
