The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Getting out of bed, Sophia glanced down from the stairwell on the second floor, only to see that there were quite a few people downstairs. Aside from John and Zack, both Logan and Fabian were present.

She wasn’t sure what they were conversing about, but Logan seemed to be confused by it. “You’re making it so complicated that I could hardly understand! I only need you to tell me what to do! My head is hurting from all the analysis you did!”

It had been a while since she last saw Logan, so she missed him quite dearly. With a smile on her face, she called out to him, “Logan!”

Lifting his head, Logan cried out in joy as soon as he saw her, and he was soon hopping up the stairs. “Sophia, I miss you a lot!”

Upon seeing that Logan was giving her a hug, the expression on John’s face soured. Zack approached him to tease him quietly, “Look at them; he’s hugging her like it’s no big deal! Young Master Jefferson sure knows how to take advantage of a situation.”

Glancing at Zack with contempt, John chided, “Stop being a busybody. Do you understand what I was talking about?”

Zack nodded instantly. “Yeah, of course I understand.”

Meanwhile, Fabian spoke up at the appropriate moment. “But are you sure that there are a lot of herbs in the mountains?”

Recalling the situation, John replied, “I did check out the area, and there were some in the nearby mountains. However, I do need someone to do a more detailed assessment. If things are to proceed as expected, those are all resources that we can make use of.”
