The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Seeing that they were being intimate, Matilda wondered if Sophia and Logan were that familiar with each other. John wasn’t back until a while later, and was surprised by Matilda’s presence in the house. “Mom, why are you here?”

In response, Matilda stood from where she sat. “I came to get an update regarding the incident. Did the culprit confess?”

John nodded while informing her, “He did reveal some information, but just a fraction, so he is being detained by my men so they can keep up with the interrogation. I have a feeling that he knows more than what he chose to let on.”

Upon letting out a sigh, Matilda opened up. “I didn’t sleep well last night because of what happened. With where things are, it’s not safe to leave Sophia alone, so I think she should close the shop for some time, as safety should come before money.”

John examined Matilda before smiling. “Mom, your attitude sure did a one-eighty.”

There was a moment’s pause while Matilda rolled her eyes at John. “Why do you sound unhappy that I am changing?”

“Oh, I am absolutely overjoyed.” John walked away from the living room, only to see Sophia and Logan in the kitchen. He never had concerns about Logan snatching Sophia away from him, so he wasn’t affected when he saw them together.
