The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

John got off work at the usual time without staying back for overtime.

He then took Sophia and left the company right away.

When they got in the car, she was buckling her seatbelt when she smiled and said, “I remember you used to stay back after hours almost every day. Why don’t you do that anymore?”

He hesitated before speaking. “I had to work on a big collaboration project before, but it’s over now.”

“Oh.” She nodded.

With pursed lips, he started the car and drove away.

In fact, he did not always stay back after hours purely just for work.

He also did it for selfish reasons. Perhaps he was actually reluctant to see her.

Whilst in the car, Sophia took off her shoes and sat cross-legged in the seat while humming a song.

He turned his gaze at her every now and then.

She looked quite relaxed. When she reached the climax of the song, she even swayed her body to the beat.

He smirked then stepped on the accelerator.
