The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 851

Logan sniggered and answered, “Wow! ‘Wise words’! ‘Wise words’! What else can I say? I feel as if I’m back to

those old days in school, where I’m sitting right beside the teacher’s favorite student who makes me look even

more like a jerk.”

Meanwhile, Sophia only placed her hand on Logan’s shoulder and said, “You’re not a jerk. You’re just spoiled.”

Logan responded with silence as he guzzled the beer in his glass. At the same time, Sophia knew she mustn’t take it

too far, fearing that her kind words of advice would frustrate her friend and backfire instead. Therefore, she

decided to stop talking and continued to sit beside Logan in silence after taking some more of the food. She wasn’t

hungry after all, so she stopped after merely a couple of bites.

Logan contemplated things briefly before he reached for the beer bottle again. Nonetheless, Sophia didn’t stop him

this time, knowing that her words had just gone in one ear and out the other. For that, she didn’t want to upset him

anymore by saying something he didn’t like to hear. On the other hand, Logan quickly fell into a drunken stupor as

he went on to drown his sorrows. However, Sophia didn’t send for the waiter. Instead, she merely sat beside him

and scrolled through her phone.

Soon, Logan collapsed on the table with his eyes shut. In his drunkenness, he swung his arm and knocked over a

glass onto the floor, shattering it. The loud crash woke him up. He then opened his eyes and looked around him,

whereupon he smiled at Sophia. “You must be thinking I’m a piece of trash, Sophia.”

Sophia paused and quickly answered, “Of course not.”

Logan sniggered and said, “I’m not a shameless man, and I know I’d be a nobody if it weren’t for my old man and

my four capable sisters, along with their husbands.” He then leaned back on his chair with his eyes closed as he

looked like he was falling asleep again. Even so, he wouldn’t stop complaining. “She was right. My mouth is as big as

my ego, yet I’m the one everyone despises. Thus, I’m only a king in my own world, and that’s nothing to boast

about.”

Upon hearing Logan’s words, Sophia blinked, seemingly able to guess who said those words. As Logan’s voice

drifted into silence, Sophia knew he must have dozed off. This time, she didn’t wait. Instead, she quickly called for

the help of the waiters.

When the waiters came in, they felt helpless to see Logan in a drunken stupor. Then, they told Sophia about Logan’s

usual behavior. “Young Master Jefferson’s temper has been rather unpredictable lately. He is usually seen quiet in

one moment, but he would then begin to mutter things to himself in another.”

Sophia leaned against the door and replied, “Something has been bothering him recently, and he just doesn’t know

how to take the load off his chest.”

Soon, the two waiters came over and carried Logan out of the lounge. “He’s never been like this before. Honestly,

we’re all worried about him.”

Sophia sighed and said, “He’ll be fine after some time.”

Everyone hits rock bottom at a point in life. Logan’s ego has grown too big, and I’m actually glad that someone

knocked him down to size. At the thought of that, Sophia couldn’t help but feel grateful to Lola for what she had

done. After all, she couldn’t believe that this lady managed to humble someone as uncontrollable as Logan and

teach him a lesson on behalf of this stubborn brat’s father.

While Logan was taken to his room, Sophia went downstairs and sat in the lobby. There were barely any customers

at the club in the day, so the waiters didn’t have a lot of work to attend to. Feeling bored, Sophia beckoned to two

waiters and said, “Well, since we’re all free, let’s play a card game to kill time.”

Since they knew Sophia, they didn’t mind going along with her and proceeded to play the game. As soon as they

got their hands on the deck of cards, they heard the club’s door being opened, followed by the sound of someone

dragging his luggage. Nonetheless, Sophia couldn’t care less about that as her eyes were glued to the cards in her
