The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

John closed his eyes and queried, “You don’t think it’s a good idea?”

“Of course it isn’t a good idea,” Sophia said candidly. “Are you out of your mind? After spending such a huge effort to get rid of me, now you’re talking about remarrying me? John, just be honest with me. Are you proposing this just because it pisses you off to see me getting so many things from you after the divorce?”

Staring at her, John sighed after a lengthy silence, “In fact, I understand that a remarriage might not be the best option. But still… I don’t think…”

He didn’t manage to finish his sentence even after much hesitation.

For the time being, he didn’t feel like announcing their divorce to the public because the timing just wasn’t right. However, judging from how things had been going lately, it seemed like there was nothing much they could do to stop the news about their divorce from reaching the public soon.

With her lips pursed, Sophia asked after some time, “What’s the issue? Has the picture of our divorce certificate reached the Baileys already?”

John looked stunned as he didn’t think Sophia would know that.

Sophia chuckled because she didn’t need to be a rocket scientist to relate the matter to the Baileys.

“You guys wouldn’t be this panicked if only the media companies have gotten the pictures because you can settle the problem by offering them enough money. So, the only possible reason why you guys are this desperate is because the picture has reached a certain party whom you guys have no control over even with money,” Sophia elaborated in an airy tone.

As far as she knew about Mrs. Constance’s character, after snapping the photo of the divorce certificate, she would definitely send it to Isabelle to share the joy with her.

John thought over what she said and questioned, “Have you thought about what we should do next?”
