The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

In the morning when he went out, he had actually anticipated that he might get into an accident with the state he was in. As expected, it really happened.

Pale in fright, Isabelle tightly clung onto John’s arm whereas John leaned against his seat and said calmly, “It’s nothing serious.”

After a while, Isabelle looked up and stared at John. Then, she asked, “Are you okay? Are you hurt?”

When John unbuckled his seatbelt, Isabelle let him go too. At that moment, the driver of the car in front had got out of the car. Therefore, John went over as well. Needless to say, he had to bear full responsibility for this accident. Initially, the driver looked angry but he saw that John’s car cost far more than his, and all his curses stuck to his throat. It was only after a while that he said, “It must cost a lot for the repairs.”

John didn’t mind about the cost. “I’ll call the insurance company.” Fortunately, it was his off day so he had quite some time on his hands. Accidents that didn’t involve any conflict in the responsibilities were extremely easy to settle. They didn’t even need the traffic police to come over.

At this moment, John called the insurance company. However, the accident happened at a junction and traffic began to build up. After ending the call, John pondered for a second before walking to the car door. Then, he said to Isabelle, who was inside the car, “I need to settle things here and it’ll take a while. Why don’t you make a move first?”

Isabelle had finally calmed down so she opened the door and got out of the car. “I’ll stay here too. Anyway, I’m not in a rush. If I leave now, I’ll feel bad.”

Actually, she didn’t need to feel bad because she had nothing to do with this accident. Despite thinking that, John didn’t say it out loud. Instead, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. Then, he stood at the side while looking at the distorted front of his car, slowly puffing the cigarette. After that, he sent a message to Zack, asking him to drive over to give him a lift.
