The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

John, who was up in the building, actually knew about Sophia being surrounded by the media long ago. After all, it was such a huge commotion right at the company’s front doors. It would be absurd had he not noticed it.

Zack was extremely worried, wanting to rush down to protect Sophia right away.

However, John appeared unconcerned. “You’ll only add to the chaos if you go down. Sophia isn’t the idiot you think she is. Since she dared come here, she must be prepared.” He recalled how she’d riled Mrs. Constance up that day to the point that she almost passed out from anger several times.

Even Mom who’s such an overbearing person lost at Sophia’s hand. While the media is slick, they might not necessarily be her match either. After all, she’s no longer the person she was in the past.

John waited in his office for a long time, but Sophia never came. Instead, William came. “Sophia is surrounded by the media downstairs. How are the two of you doing these days? Will she say anything inappropriate?” William anxiously asked as soon as he entered.

John understood his meaning. It was only a few days earlier that Sophia had a row with Mrs. Constance, so it was very likely that she hadn’t yet cooled off. If she were to go along with Infinity Group’s accusations at this critical juncture, it wouldn’t look good for the Constance Family.

Standing by the window, he gazed out, but he was too high up to see the situation below clearly. After a few seconds, he replied, “She won’t.” If William hadn’t mentioned that, he wouldn’t even have thought of it. However, he believed that Sophia wouldn’t do that. There was no basis, but he just trusted her.

On the other hand, Sophia wasn’t at all bothered by the fact that no one from Constance Company came out to help her. She jabbered and talked about everything under the sun. The media had probably never seen someone as cooperative as her, so they softened toward her and didn’t make things difficult for her.

even sighed. “You all must have waited here for a long time. You should just disperse since I’ve already told you everything I know. Even if you continue waiting here, the people inside won’t give you any answers. Thus, don’t make life difficult for yourselves. Go find a place
