The Returning Ex

As Sophia had misunderstood John, she darted a glare at him. “Why? Do you mean to tell me that I shouldn’t bring this up because I wasn’t hurt?”

Blinking his eyes, John exclaimed, “That’s not what I meant.”

Seeing that, Ian rose up from his seat. “If it wasn’t me who found out about it, that person would have already succeeded.”

Agreeing to the statement, Sophia chimed in, “Exactly! Ian noticed there was someone in my room and warned me about it. Otherwise, I would have been the one who got beaten up.”

Pulling a long face, Sophia complained, “Your mother had caused me a lot of troubles. Admittedly, she lost out to me a couple of times, but I can assure you—she was the one who started it every single time. So what if she can’t win against me? Does that mean she can backstab me?”

Taking in a deep breath, John said, “Let me handle this. I’ll promise to give you an explanation on this and I won’t brush it off.”

Gazing at John, Sophia felt she didn’t really need an explanation from him; all she wanted was to inform John of Mrs. Constance’s doings. Up till now, Sophia couldn’t understand why Mrs. Constance would do such a thing to her. She really didn’t seem to have learned her lesson.
