The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

When Sophia returned, Old Mr. Bailey instantly checked behind her.

Sophia knew who he was looking for and informed him, “Miss Bailey is in the washroom. She said that she felt sick.”

Old Mr. Bailey shot up. “Sick?”

Sophia elaborated without missing a beat, “It’s probably because the dining room was filled with smoke. I saw her breathing in and out in the washroom, looking a little pale.”

Smoke? Indeed, someone was smoking in the dining room. It was not unusual for guests to smoke in a business meeting.

If Isabelle could not even stand the smoke… William frowned because he had been smoking.

Of course, Old Mr. Bailey would not trust Sophia’s words, but he believed that Isabelle had all the reason to feel sick. The sight of John and Sophia acting lovey-dovey was enough to upset her.

He stood up and commented, “Dad, I’ll check on her.”

Elder Mr. Bailey quickly nodded at his son. “Go.”

The moment old Mr. Bailey was gone, Sophia leaned into her seat with a huge smile.
