The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 397

The renovators worked fast. After Sophia transferred the money to them, John called her a few hours later, asking

what she meant by this. What? Isn’t it obvious? Sophia played dumb by asking back, “What are you talking about?”

“Why’d the renovators give me back my money and say it’s what you want?”

Sophia grunted. “Oh, that? Yeah, it is. I’m supposed to pay for the renovations, not you. I don’t want you to pay for

it. Makes me feel insecure.”

He sneered. “Now you’re feeling insecure?”

Sophia said, “Yeah, I let you pay for it because I didn’t know better. Now that I do, I’m going to put my foot down on

this. Can’t expect you to pay for everything.”

John knew she wouldn’t back off, so a few moments later, he said, “Fine.” Then, he hung up.

Sophia was surprised. What’s that supposed to mean? A short while later, John arrived at her house. For some

reason, she quickly locked the door and leaned against it, feeling scared. John looked angry when he alighted his

car, much to her confusion, but she thought she had to lock him out for her own safety.

John tried to open the door, but to no avail. “I know you’re in there, Sophia. Open the door.”

She would not do that, but she knew it was impossible to hide. “Why did you come here?” she replied. “I told you I

don’t want to have anything to do with you anymore. And I don’t owe you any money now, so leave.”

John sneered. “Open the door. We need to talk.”

Sophia didn’t want to, for she recalled how John gripped her chin in a fit of anger last time. When she remembered

how it took days for the feeling to go away, Sophia unconsciously rubbed her chin. She didn’t want to feel that

again. “No. This is my home, and you’re not welcome here. Leave.”

“How dare you,” John said coldly.

Sophia didn’t feel as scared now that John was locked outside, and the fact emboldened her. “Just leave, or a new

scandal might pop up if someone finds out you’re here. We have enough problems as it is.” Then, she continued,

“I’m sick of this. John, because of you, I can’t even take a step out of my house. What more do you want from me?”

When he heard that, he froze. He was going to open the door by force, but he stopped after that. Eventually, he

left, and Sophia heard the revving of his car. Hence, she slowly nudged to the window so she could see what was

going on outside. When she saw him going into his car and leaving, Sophia heaved a sigh of relief. Is he mad?

After that, Sophia kept the door locked for the rest of the afternoon. She usually kept the windows open, but now

she closed them all; not because she was worried about thieves, but because of John. She was worried he might

choose to come in through the window if the front door was a no go. If Husky knew that, John, being smarter than

he was, could do it too.

However, her concern was unfounded. John didn’t come again that day, nor in the following days. Also, he sent no

text nor made any calls. At the same time, the Constances had stopped harassing her, while the media had quieted
