The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1774

Chapter 1774 The Ladies Return Home

Cindy proposed, “Why don’t we take a stroll then? You can calm yourself down before you go back.” She wasn’t worried about Ian being home alone at all since he was a guy.

Aurora wasn’t in the mood for a stroll, but she knew Ian would get suspicious if she went back home looking weird. She hesitated for a moment before nodding. “Don’t go too far.” She raised her hand and called the waiter over to pay the bill.

The ladies came out of the café and went past the Morgan Residence for some reason. Just by looking at the outside, nobody would suspect any foul play to happen within. The residence was quiet and the door was locked, as if nobody was inside. Nobody would think that a basement existed under the backyard, nor would they imagine a wicked woman to be locked up in there.

Cindy couldn’t understand why Leah’s children didn’t stand up for her. Even if they couldn’t convince Bryce, they could at least call the cops to help free their mother. It was better than being locked up in a cage. On top of it, she seemed badly injured.

Her children are probably stupid, and she spoiled them for nothing. One is hiding like a coward while the other asked someone who wouldn’t help them for help. They’re useless.


The ladies only came back home around noon. Ian was already back home and watching some TV on the couch with his legs crossed. A variety show was on, and Cindy could hear the ruckus from the TV the moment she came in.

Aurora looked at her son for a while before quickly averting her gaze and heading to her room.

Cindy sighed silently. She’s still not over the matter. She went over to Ian and asked, “Are you hungry?”

Ian sat up. First, he looked at his mother’s room, then at Cindy. “Did you ladies get into a fight?”

Cindy smiled. “You think too much. Do I look like I would get into a fight with Aurora?”

Huh, she has a point. Cindy isn’t one to argue, and Mom’s nice to her. They always get along really well even without me around. Since that’s the case, I wonder what’s really going on here. “So what’s up with Mom? Why the long face? Did someone get on her nerves?”

“Oh, that,” Cindy said. “Maybe she’s annoyed because she got into a fight with the taxi driver on the way home,” she lied. “The driver knows we aren’t locals, since our accents don’t sound like it. That’s why he took the long way, and you know how Aurora is. She wouldn’t let him take advantage of us, so she argued with him.”
