The Returning Ex

Judging from the missed calls and messages, Sophia knew another round of rumors must have broken out on the internet again.

After reading all her messages, she went on to browse the internet for the news articles, and she found herself plastered everywhere.

As per her expectation, the Constances had announced their divorce.

The announcement came with the picture of the divorce certificate, the date on which was amended.

Needless to say, it had caused a great stir among the public.

The moment she noticed the staggering amount of comments below the post of the news article, she already lost interest in reading them because it might take her forever to finish all of them.

However, she must say that the news article was written in quite a neutral and unbiased tone.

In the article, it was pointed out that they had decided to separate from each other not because their relationship had turned sour, but because they couldn’t be on the same page regarding certain aspects in life. Thinking that they would be giving each other a hard time by staying married, they thought it would be better to let each other go while their relationship was still friendly.

In fact, many would find the explanation acceptable considering that Sophia and John indeed came from totally different backgrounds.

Hence, it went without saying that it would be difficult for them to live together harmoniously.
