The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

When William spoke to John a moment ago, he seemed to be sending him a warning with his expression. John quickly realized that it was negligence on his own side.

Until William’s car was out of sight from the rearview mirror, John retracted his gaze. Inebriated, he leaned against the seat and closed his eyes, slowly dozing off.

When he had reached Constance Residence, the chauffeur called out to John to awaken him.

Getting out of the car, John leaned against the car for a while to sober up. Then, he slowly walked into the main building and told the cook to get him a hangover tonic.

When the tonic was ready, William returned home. Although William had consumed lots of alcohol as well, he appeared to be more clear-headed than this son. Upon entering the house, he directly took a seat opposite John.

Since his wife was asleep, William questioned in a lowered voice, “Have you figured it out?”

Resting on the couch, John was on the verge of falling asleep. When he heard that, he frowned. “What?”

Helplessly, William asked, “Don’t you understand that you were almost taken advantage of?”

The question made John scowl.

William smiled. “Sober up and think about it. It seems that you’re really intoxicated since you can’t even see through it.”
