The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Did Isabelle have to text the three of us to say the same thing? I don’t even know whether I should describe her action as unnecessary or considerate, Sophia thought.

Since it was time for office workers to get off work, the traffic was heavy, which caused them to be late. When they arrived, Isabelle was already inside the private room. After Matilda pushed open the door, Isabelle immediately rose from the chair. “Madam Flintstone.”

Matilda grunted before saying, “We’re sorry for being late.”

Acting all considerate, Isabelle replied, “The traffic must be heavy at this hour. It’s understandable that you’re late.”

Following that, John and Sophia stepped into the room without greeting Isabelle, as they were discussing Logan’s mysterious matter.

John chuckled and said in a lowered voice, “Don’t worry. Logan will tell you about it in two days. If you knew nothing at all, he probably wouldn’t spill it. Since you were there and got to know a little of his problem, he will look for you when he needs someone to talk about his issue.”

With an eyebrow raised, Sophia remarked, “You know him so well.”

As they giggled and spoke in a low voice, Isabelle was jealous. After shooting them a look, she said, “Please be seated. I’ve ordered some dishes. You can order more if you need to.”
