The Returning Ex

After John said his piece, he moved to end the call. As a result, Zack, who was on the other end of the phone, sighed quickly. Then, he stammered, “Boss, are you really not going to come over? Um, Sophia and Trevor are getting on really well. I think they might be more than just friends—”

On the contrary, John hung up immediately. He didn’t want to hear whatever it was that Zack was about to say. Then, he sat down and continued to look through the documents on his computer. Unfortunately, he only managed to read no more than two sentences before he heard quarreling noises coming from outside the door.

Roughly listening, it sounded like the voice of that female employee from the Infinity Group. After quarreling for a bit, he heard President McCaw’s voice—it sounded like he was berating the other party. Then, the female employee began to cry.

John frowned slightly. He never liked it when a woman cried. In the first place, he wasn’t the type to treat a woman tenderly. So, even if he was faced with a woman’s tears or heard a woman crying, he wasn’t the type to give in or feel compassion for the woman. Instead, he simply found it irritating.

Fortunately, Sophia isn’t the type to cry. When he found himself thinking about Sophia, he quickly forced himself to stop. In the future, that woman won’t have anything to do with me anymore. I cannot continue thinking about her.

Meanwhile, the woman by the door suddenly rushed over and began knocking on his door for some reason, yelling for him to come out and talk. Perhaps it was due to how agitated she was, but President McCaw and the hotel’s security guards did nothing to drag her away. Hence, she continued hammering her fists against his door.
