The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Isabelle understood the hidden meaning behind John’s words. Since she wasn’t the love of his life, he would never be passionate toward her. Even if they got married, their lives would be as tasteless as water. Even so, she would want to try if she could make him fall head over heels for her.

After a pause, she nodded slowly. “Alright. I understand what you mean, and I know what to do.”

They decided to stay at the cashier counter. A moment later, Sophia and Matilda came out of the room, chatting and smiling at each other as if they didn’t mind what John and Isabelle were talking about.

Turning to John, Sophia asked, “Are you done talking? Can we go now?”

Isabelle faced away from Sophia and wiped her tears with her hand.

With a milder expression, John pulled Sophia toward him. “Yes, we can go now.”

Without giving Isabelle a glance, Sophia and John walked down the stairs and reached for their car. Walking up to Isabelle, Matilda gave it a thought and clapped her shoulder before leaving the place.

Upon wiping off the tears from the corners of her eyes, Isabelle gazed at John’s car. As the car started moving, through the window, she could see Sophia saying something to John. While John’s expression remained calm, Sophia guffawed.
