The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

When John heard what Sophia said, he smiled slightly. “He’s probably getting nervous.”

Zack didn’t know what was going on. “That McCaw guy is getting nervous? Boss, what did you do? Why is he getting nervous?”

However, he leisurely answered, “I’ve told you. You’ll find out when the time comes.”

Thus, Zack secretly curled his lips derisively.

On the other hand, Sophia did not say anything else.

The dishes were served up quickly. It was clear to see that she had over-ordered. Moreover, the owner was afraid that they would cancel their orders, so he quickly served all the dishes they ordered.

The three of them looked like they were eating with all their might. Even so, there were still a lot of leftovers in the end.

Sophia hailed the owner, “Here; please wrap these up.”

The hotel had a refrigerator. Therefore, they could keep it in the fridge once they returned.

Afterward, the owner came over to hand them their packed-up food with a smile. Moreover, he gave them a small discount while they were paying, claiming that it was because Sophia was so good-looking.

Sophia was happy too as she made some polite small talk with him. Alas, everything was settled. Wiping her mouth, she prepared to leave.

However, John looked at her and said, “Take your medicine.”
