The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 677

That time, John told the young man his own number, unbeknownst to the young man, and then he kept receiving

good morning and good night messages. Even when Sophia went back to her home, this young man kept sending

messages to her. John was surprised about the young man’s iron will. Even though he never replied to the young

man’s messages, he never stopped texting.

John came up and wrapped his arm around Sophia’s shoulder. “We’re going for lunch. Anything?”

The young man froze up and stared at them for a while. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

Sophia knew what John was trying to do. If it were any other time, she would have slapped his hand away, but not

this time. She didn’t want the young man to be kept in ignorance, so it’d be better for him to know about this

sooner. Sophia leaned closer against John and repeated, “Do you need anything?”

The young man’s expression turned gloomy. “Y-You guys…”

Matilda was frustrated. What is wrong with these men? Even until then, she didn’t know what was so attractive

about Sophia, so her son’s obsession went over her head.

I don’t think John likes her for her looks. He isn’t that shallow. When she noticed that someone else had a crush on

Sophia as well, Matilda thought, Fine, John’s blind, but everyone else is too?

Robin chuckled silently and approached Matilda. “This guy kept coming over every day during Sophia’s absence,”

she whispered. “He really likes her.”

Matilda looked at the boy again. This boy looks like he just graduated high school. He’s just a kid! Does he even

know what love and responsibility is? Does he even know how to care for a woman? Matilda snorted. “So what?

There’s no point coveting something that isn’t his,” she whispered back.

Robin froze. Even though she knew Matilda wasn’t talking about her, she still looked at John, who still had his hand

around Sophia’s shoulder. A while ago, she too coveted someone who couldn’t belong to her, and she even thought

there was a chance. Once upon a time, she even wanted to confess to that man, just like how this young man was

doing, but luckily, she stopped in time, or else she’d be in the same situation as the young man was.

The young man looked at Sophia, the light in his eyes dim. “I see. I’m just here to say hi.” Then, he went back to his

shop.

When he was finally out of sight, Sophia turned to John. “Take your hand off me.” John arched his eyebrow and

removed his hand, for he knew he shouldn’t push his luck. Then, they went into John’s car, and he drove them to a

restaurant in the city center.

There weren’t many customers given the time they came. John was still delighted over hearing the news. Even

though Sophia had known about it for a while, John only knew about it a day ago. Thus, he wanted to share this

warm and fuzzy feeling he felt with everyone.

After going into their room, he called Logan. “Are you in the middle of something now?”

“I’m in a game session with the guys in my club. No money involved.”

When John heard that reply, he invited Logan over for lunch and said they were a group. Being a party lover, Logan
