The Returning Ex

Isabelle really placed a lot of trust on John. He is practically going against the Baileys after they tried to harm me, but Isabelle actually went and gave John information about her family’s illegal activities and let him investigate it. Although she wasn’t doing anything wrong, Sophia couldn’t help but wonder what Isabelle was even thinking about.

John felt like laughing when he looked at Sophia.

Why would she suddenly say that? John couldn’t figure out if she was jealous or not.

However, after thinking about it, John explained, “She could only ask for my help as she couldn’t investigate it herself, and she didn’t have any friends. Moreover, I think she has other plans, and she thinks that doing this might be doing me a favor.”

After all, John had already known about the shadow bank and was already investigating it, so it was only a matter of sooner or later before he would find out about what the Baileys were doing.

If Isabelle took the initiative to provide John the information that she had, she would be doing him a favor and he might actually let them off the hook since he wasn’t a ruthless person.

Sophia nodded in agreement. “I used to think that Isabelle was an airhead, but I guess she’s pretty smart after all.”

John didn’t comment at that and simply smiled.
