The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Sophia did not know how long she had been asleep, but she was in a bit of a daze when she woke up.

Looking around, she had no idea what room she was in.

She stayed in bed for a bit before getting down to go open the door.

John was not in the office. It was all empty.

She stretched then turned back to look at the lounge room.

The rich never forget to enjoy themselves no matter what. Who knew it was possible to have a lounge room inside an office?

She was the one who knew too little about the world.

If I take over that dessert shop, I can probably do the same and have my own lounge room of some sort.

She sat down on the sofa and looked at the time. She had not slept for that long.

There was still a lot of time left before people got off work.

She was bored out of her mind so she left his office.

This time, she did not take a walk inside the Constance Company but took the elevator down and went outside.

People were coming and going in the afternoon buzz.

She stood at the entrance of the Constance Company for a while before walking down a street.

The neighboring area was filled with office buildings where commercialization was deeply ingrained.
