The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

John responded with a nod and answered, “Noted, but please do something about the rest of the parts, even though they’re fine.”

Upon hearing that, Zack knew what John meant by that. “Alright, I know what to do.” After that, Zack turned around and headed toward the exit. The moment he opened the door, John saw Dylan walking past in a hurried manner with some documents in his hands. He then took a look at the time and realized it was still their lunch break. Therefore, he decided to step out of his office and follow Dylan to his room just as the latter was opening the door. As soon as Dylan unlocked his room door, John asked, “You look busy. Have you taken your lunch?”

Stunned, Dylan looked back and gazed at John with a smile. “Oh, I’m not always this busy, except today, so I merely cut my lunch break short.”

The next moment, John entered Dylan’s office as if he was going into his own and sat down. “Your health should come first. After all, work will never get completely done, so take a break when you have to.”

Dylan curled his lips upward and went along with John’s words. “Yeah, work just keeps coming.”
