The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

There wasn’t anyone else here since Focker wasn’t fond of having too many people. John didn’t mind either as he summoned a server over and ordered a feast. In the relatively huge private room, he and Focker then proceeded to eat and drink.

Neither mentioned the incident at the bar back then. Focker merely remembered that John left the bar with a woman that day, but he paid no attention to the woman’s countenance since he was under the influence of drugs, his excitement palpable. Instead, he only had eyes for the woman in his arms.

The two of them ordered a few bottles of wine and started drinking without inhibition. After guzzling down a few glasses of wine, Focker’s nasty habit reared its head. “You can’t be going back to the office after drinking now, huh? How about I bring you somewhere nice to have some fun later?”

John chuckled. “I’ll bring you somewhere to have fun later. After all, it can’t always be you making arrangements for entertainment.”

Upon hearing this, Focker laughed heartily and pointed a finger at him. “You’re a smart one, President Constance. I love dealing with smart people.”

John merely smiled without saying anything. If one drank a lot, he would definitely have to go for a bathroom break, so John then left the private room under the pretext of going to the washroom. As soon as he walked out, however, he gave Zack a call. When Zack received the call, he immediately said, “Everything is ready.” Murmuring an acknowledgment, John promptly hung up.

He then went to the washroom and lit a cigarette by the sink. Although he’d been pushing drinks on Focker, he himself drank quite a bit as well, so his stomach was feeling a tad unsettled now. After finishing a cigarette, he then stubbed it out and threw the cigarette butt into the trash can. The moment he turned around, he caught sight of Ian who was walking in.

Both of them were stunned for a moment. His face is slightly flushed, so he must have drunk quite a bit as well. Looking at him, John asked, “You’re here to entertain a client?”
