The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

While Matilda only reacted with silence, John patiently waited for her to respond. Soon, she chuckled and said, “John, is that woman really more important than your own mother? Am I seriously the first suspect that comes to your mind? Are you going to assume that it’s my fault every time anything happens to her?”

Desperate to get to the point, John demanded an answer from his mother. “Just tell me what I want to know. The police have interfered with the matter now, but there is still time for me to do something to keep you out of trouble if you are behind this. Otherwise, we’ll just keep investigating the matter.”

Matilda said in a serious manner, “I didn’t do it!”

“Alright, then I’ll not interfere,” John said before he directly hung up the call. Upon hearing Matilda’s insistent denial, John started to believe in his mother’s innocence as he was able to feel her rage over the phone. My mother wouldn’t lie if she really did that to Sophia. Instead, she would admit it and justify her mistake at the same time. Soon, he put down his phone and wondered who else it could be besides Matilda.

Sophia has a short fuse, but she doesn’t have a lot of friends either, which makes it less likely for her to step on anyone’s toes.

As soon as Sophia went inside, she immediately broke into tears, hugging Robin while apologizing to her. Meanwhile, Robin, who had cried earlier, felt a lot better at the moment as she comforted Sophia and assured the latter that she was fine. In the meantime, John shot a gaze at Robin and turned around, leaving both ladies behind

to the washroom the night before. After that, she lost her consciousness, unable to recall anything when she was taken by her abductors. When she opened her eyes, she found herself alone under a tree in a remote hilly region. Fortunately, her arms and legs weren’t bound,

was told that they could leave. At the same time, Sophia wanted to clear her confusion but decided to keep those questions to herself with Robin
