The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

John did not look at President McCaw when he passed the menu to Sophia and asked in a gentle voice, “Have a look at what you’d like to eat.”

Knowing that he was merely putting up a show, as this was the only time John would be so gentle to her, she grunted before taking the menu from him.

Zack chose not to expose them but quietly sat there.

Even though Sophia skipped lunch, she was still not feeling hungry, and none of the food on the menu seemed appetizing.

She pointed at a picture on the menu and edged in on John. “What about this one?”

They were in close proximity, and John could smell her scent.

Sophia seemingly had a fondness for anything related to roses, so she owned many rose-scented things.

John grunted. “Let’s order it then.”

Sophia proceeded to order three dishes before passing the menu to Zack, who duly added one more dish to the menu.

As for John, he did not order anything.

Sitting next to them, President McCaw felt slightly awkward. He then added, “President Constance, this time around I came to offer my sincere apologies to you. I had no idea about everything that happened before. Our staff, Elizabeth Cox, has never done anything like that before. It was truly beyond our imagination.”
