The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Dylan laughed in a hollow manner and said, “You always say that Sophia is of no help to me. Look at John. He’s never gotten anything from her, but he’s obviously living a happy life. Now look at what kind of miserable life I’m leading.”

Startled, Lady Jennifer told her son in puzzlement, “There’s nothing wrong with your life. You’re single, so you can pursue any woman freely. Your life is as great as John’s. I’d even say that you’re living a greater life than him.”

Feeling helpless, Dylan shook his head. “How did you come to the conclusion that I’m living a better life than him? I don’t feel happy. In fact, I’m jealous of him.”

Lady Jennifer consoled him by saying, “Dylan, don’t worry. You’ll come across a better woman…”

Not wanting to listen to any of that anymore, Dylan decided to leave. After moving past his mother, he halted his steps and said, “As a matter of fact, Sophia has never been into me. It’s her who isn’t interested in getting together with me, not the other way round. You have to understand that.” With that, he stepped out of the room.

Rendered speechless, Lady Jennifer stood in the doorway of the study and gazed at her son’s figure from behind.

Meanwhile, Sophia was reaching for the bamboo forest. She was surprised that the place had been cleaned up, so the hill trail now looked pretty clean. In a slow manner, she walked up the hill. In fact, she didn’t have a particular destination in mind. She simply decided to take a stroll because she was bored.
