The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

There was a frown on John’s face when he responded, “No, I’m not.”

Meanwhile, Zack had in hand some documents that needed to be signed by John, then said, “Yeah, from what I recall, you don’t have plans to travel today.”

John’s gaze was on Zack before it traveled to the documents Zack held, but it didn’t linger on any of those, eventually settling on a nearby window. It wasn’t until then that John turned to return to his office.

Upon settling into his seat, John took the documents handed to him by Zack, during which Zack said, “By the way, I launched an investigation on the Baileys, but to no avail. They seemed to have covered up their tracks, so I didn’t get much out of it.

I then went on to investigate the Morgans, as I thought they were more likely to be the suspect. Before I say anything, would you like to make a guess on what I found?”

John lifted his head slowly to look at Zack. Despite the lack of an expression, John had a stern air about him that intimidated Zack, so the latter opted to spill everything out. “I found out that while Sally and Simon had nothing to do with the incident, the Morgans were still somehow involved in it.

The suspect this time around was their mother, Leah Zimmerman. She went shopping that day and had met up with Tom, so this should explain everything.”

Truth be told, John wasn’t even listening to Zack’s report, nor was the sour look on his face by any means Zack’s fault. It was the mere result of John being sucked into his own thoughts. After hanging up Logan’s call earlier, John left his office without thinking, as for a second, his rational mind was overpowered by his instincts. All he wanted was to go check on what Ian was doing while hanging around Sophia.
