The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Old Mrs. Constance laughed. “I’m not trying to bribe you, Sophia. I just feel sorry for you. John’s grandpa liked you very much, and I should have treated you better before, but I didn’t.

“It has nothing to do with you. This is John’s problem. I was bullied because of his inaction. If he could see things from my point of view, things wouldn’t have ended like this,” Sophia replied with a smile.

Turning his head to look at Isabelle, John took out a cigarette and lit it. “I suppose you felt quite uncomfortable during dinner just now.”
