The Returning Ex

Sophia inched closer to John and looked at him. “I found it. I saw one today. The location is pretty good and… Oh, I should just take you there on a day when you have time and you can take a look at it for me.”

She tried to curry favor with him with her big round eyes.

The way she was flattering him now and the way she used to was different.

In the past, it did not seem like she had a bottom line. As long as he said it, she was willing to do anything.

Right now, however, she clearly had a goal.

She was only looking at him like that because she wanted to use him, but how she really felt about him was unclear.

He stared at her for a while before agreeing to it. “I’ll find time to go have a look.”

She grinned and patted his shoulder. “You’re really something. Though we couldn’t work out, at least we’re still friends.”

What is she saying? He smiled. Standing up, he said, “Let’s go. I think they’re about to serve the food downstairs.”

She quickly got out of bed, then they went downstairs together.

Mrs. Constance was surprised to see them coming down together.

Sophia suddenly remembered Elder Mr. Bailey’s visit to Constance Company today and the unkind look he gave her. Then, she thought of how Mrs. Constance and Isabelle were on good terms with each other.

The more those thoughts gathered in her mind, the more dislike she felt for Mrs. Constance.
