The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

John was stuck in the traffic jam on the way to the Constance Residence, so he had just missed dinner by the time he reached.

Although Mrs. Constance was surprised to see John, she was definitely delighted.

She immediately greeted, “Why did you come over at this time?”
