The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Sophia grunted in acknowledgment. “Have a seat. I’ll bring them over later.”

When Matilda came in, she glanced at Sophia, but her expression was much more mellow this time, no longer looking as though Sophia owed her money.

Meanwhile, Sophia’s movements were slow and measured, not the slightest bit frantic.

After Matilda and Isabelle had taken their seats, Isabelle’s lips curved into a smile. “Have you ever been here, Mrs. Constance? I think Ms. Gwendolyn’s shop is quite nice with a pleasant décor.”

Matilda murmured in affirmation. “Yes, I’ve been here a few times.” I told her this a long time ago.

Nodding, Isabelle pretended as though she’d just known about it. “Then, is there anything you like in particular? I’d appreciate a recommendation.”

Matilda couldn’t quite figure out what Isabelle was trying to do. “Everything here is nice.” At this, Isabelle giggled but said nothing further.

Could it be that she’s intentionally saying this because of Sophia’s presence? But what’s the use of doing so? Sophia won’t give a whit even if she says all this. Rather, it makes her appear petty. For the first time, she felt that Isabelle wasn’t as laid-back as Sophia in matters of
