The Returning Ex

The Returning Ex Chapter 23

John knew what the answer was once he noticed Zack looking away. He sneered, but he didn’t expose Zack. A moment later, Sophia got her answer too, so she sighed quietly and looked away.

Feeling awkward, Zack stood up and changed the topic. “Um, I got our dinner, so have it while it’s hot.” He placed the food on her table and opened the lids.

It was bland, to say the least. There wasn’t even any color in the food, just like Sophia’s face. “Hey, what is this? How am I supposed to eat this?” Sophia was irked.

Zack glared at her. “Your stomach needs rest, so light food is all you can eat. Don’t complain and stuff it down. Once you get better, you can eat whatever you want.” Turning around, he then uncovered what he bought for himself and John.
