The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Feeling resigned, Sophia was wondering how to settle this.

Honestly, she didn’t want to have anything to do with the Blackwells, but somehow, things just happened, and it seemed impossible to draw the line.

With that, Sophia called up Robin to inform her that she has some matters to settle, so she wouldn’t be able to head to the shop later this afternoon.

Surprisingly, Robin was in a good mood. “Oh sure! No worries. I can handle it. There usually aren’t many people in the afternoon anyway.”

Once Sophia had hung up the call, she took a seat at the swing chair.

Seeing that Fabian was sound asleep, Sophia wondered why he had drank so much even though it was still daytime.

Around noon, Sophia went upstairs to take a short nap.

Lying on the bed, she habitually picked up her phone to scroll through her social media.

Halfway through her browsing, she realized that that particular person on Facebook had posted a new update—it was a picture of her shop’s board.

Hissing, Sophia couldn’t help but commented on the photo below, asking who the person was.

Her first guess was Matilda, but after thinking it through, she didn’t seem like the kind of person who would do such a thing.
