The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

John did not pay any attention to her and just began to drive.

They did not drive for very long before arriving at a western restaurant.

In fact, Sophia was not too used to that cuisine as it could never fully satiated her.

John, on the other hand, always opted for western food because he found it less troublesome.

Once they sat down, she told him, “I’m going out by myself this afternoon. I’ll come back right before you get off work and we can return to Constance Residence together.”

He looked up at her briefly. “Okay.”

That was the only exchange they had throughout the entire meal.

John was a bit busy and had to answer a few calls in between.

He was always strict when it came to work.

She stared at him while he was on the phone. It seemed like he treated her the same way he treated the employee on the other end of the call. He did not repeat himself when something only had to be said once. Lowering her eyes, she thought, perhaps I’m no different than his work to him.

She had even yearned to be with him for the rest of her life.
