The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Sophia’s restraint was not out of consideration for the other woman’s dignity. Instead, she was worried that kicking up a fuss about her husband’s affair would only embarrass herself more. After all, her social status was incomparable to that of Third Young Lady Jefferson’s.

If she had made a fuss, the public would only think that she was clinging tightly onto John for his wealth. There was no need for that humiliation.

After two rounds of Monopoly, she received a call from Zack. He had brought the construction workers to the desserts store and told her that they would start working based on the design plan. “Alright, I’ll let you decide. I have trust in you.”

Zack laughed. “If so, I will give this store a makeover based on the design I have in mind.”

“No problem,” she coolly replied. “I have trust in your taste.”

Zack laughed again. “Alright. I’ll get busy now. I’ll show you photos of our progress later at night.”

After the call, she leaned against her chair. “I’m not playing anymore. I kept losing, and I completely lost interest in the game.”

Logan thought that the call was from John. “One call from your husband, and you lost interest in the game. Why don’t you confess that you miss him and want to go home?”

She snorted coldly and diverted the topic of conversation, “Have you gotten in touch with Ian? I don’t know what has happened to him over the past two days. After that fuss at the Morgans, his family is definitely going to give him a hard time.”

Logan packed the Monopoly cards and handed them over to the two waiters. “His life hasn’t been rosy. If not, he would not have to leave home for a few years. Now that he’s back and has agreed to join his family company, he must have come fully-prepared for the drama.”
