The Returning Ex

Aiden was indeed there. After everything in the shop had been removed yesterday, they were redecorating the walls today.

A carpenter had been hired to do the woodworks.

Sophia did not enter the shop which was dusty, so she stood by the door along with Aiden.

In his casual clothing, Aiden looked much younger than usual.

Inching closer, Sophia said, “Since there’s a professional here, I don’t think you have to supervise them constantly.”

Aiden chuckled at that. “Your ex-husband instructed me to supervise the renovation here closely to avoid any problems. This is your first time doing your own business, so he hopes that it will go smooth for you.”

Sophia was stunned before she snorted. “Are you kidding me? I feel like you’re lying to me.”

Aiden glared at her. “Why won’t you believe it? It doesn’t benefit me in any way to lie to you, and your ex-husband won’t raise my salary either. I’m telling the truth. To be honest, he had been keeping an eye on this ever since you had wanted to start your business. He had gone through all of the floor plans and instructed those professionals himself.”

Sophia’s mind went blank for a moment before she hugged her shoulder. “Yeah. I understand why he did it. John did promise Grandpa before he passed away to look after me.”

After her life became smooth sailing, John could finally live his own life in peace.

Without saying anything else, Aiden continued supervising the shop’s renovation.
