The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 2034

Chapter 2034 Ran Away

Naturally, Leah wasn't about to let Sean go so easily—she previously made her way to Morgan Group in her wheelchair just to pick a fight. She was no longer the prim and proper Mrs. Morgan that others once knew, but a person who threw tantrums whenever she wanted to. Perhaps she was able to release herself and do whatever she wanted since she had already revealed her flaws to everyone.

"I can't seem to contact Simon, by the way. I don't know if he ran away from this place," Sean added on the call.

"He ran away? Is he running away from something?" Ian was surprised to hear this.

Sean let out an exasperated chuckle. "He borrowed money from loan sharks, and he doesn't have enough to return it to them. I heard that they've confronted him twice, and he seemed to have disappeared after that."

Simon was too used to the life of a rich man's son. Since Bryce hadn't left much of an inheritance for Simon, Simon had to start saving up. Leah didn't give him a lot of money either. In the end, Simon couldn't stop himself from spending. He didn't want to live a thrifty and meager life, so he decided to borrow money from the loan sharks.


Simon had probably assumed that Leah would extort money from Sean, and then he would be able to repay his debts. However, since Leah had broken her leg, Simon knew that he no longer stood a chance with those loan sharks. So, he decided to run off instead.

Ian was completely speechless after hearing Sean's explanation. Since Bryce's passing, the three of them had gone their own ways. Sally was doing a little better as she had left to chase after her own goals. She was a little more independent. Leah and Simon's lives, meanwhile, seemed like it was going downhill. I wonder if this is what karma looks like, Ian thought.

Sean questioned Ian in a playful manner, "Leah doesn't know about your engagement party here, right?"

Ian thought about it. "I don't think so. I didn't spread the news to others, but she has always been quick with her sources, so I'm not sure if she'll find out about it."

Sean smiled. "Why don't you prepare yourself a little? If she finds out about it, she's certainly going to go over in her wheelchair to cause a scene. You know how shameless she is now, so I wouldn't put anything past her. Your reputation is at stake here—her actions could easily get you to trend online."

Ian let out a long sigh on the other end of the call. He didn't know what to do. Fame was a double-sided knife­—he could use it to his own benefit as much as people could use it to ruin him. "Okay," Ian uttered after hesitating for a while. "I'll get Logan to prepare some men to watch the door tomorrow." It'd be easy for the men to spot Leah in a wheelchair, and it'd be easy to throw her out.

Both of them chatted for a while longer before Sean excused himself and ended the call. After that, Ian went to stand by the window before he reached into his pocket and pulled out a packet of cigarettes.
