The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Zack was also a bit surprised to see Isabelle. “Miss Bailey, did you come over with Mr. Constance?”

Without waiting for Isabelle to speak, John spoke up first. “I couldn’t get a cab and ran into Miss Bailey by coincidence. So, she gave me a ride.”

Zack nodded. Suddenly, he remembered that Sophia had called him the previous night, saying that John drank too much, so she asked him to go and take the drunkard away, but he was really tied up with something, which was why he didn’t go over.

Seeing that John didn’t have a car with him, Zack thought that he had probably stayed overnight at Sophia’s house. Thus, he glanced at John a little slyly.

Furrowing his brows, the latter gave Zack a warning glare before walking over to the counter. Sophia had arranged everything there in an orderly manner, which looked very pleasing to the eye.

Robin looked up at him and asked, “Why didn’t Sophia come here together with you? Didn’t she get enough rest?”

John nodded. “She should probably be here a little later in the day. It’s okay. Let Zack help out here today. If you have anything you need help with, just order him around as you wish.”

Zack bared his teeth. “What an evil capitalist!”

Isabelle stood there for a while, feeling somewhat awkward because nobody seemed to care about her presence at all. So, when everyone fell silent for a moment, she took the chance to say, “Guys, I have something to do, so I’ll take my leave first. Please carry on.”

Turning to her, John just said, “Okay.” He escorted her to the door and thanked her.
