The Returning Ex

Chapter 962

How can Isabelle forget about that so soon? With the phone in her hand, Sophia hesitated for a while and eventually gave up the idea of returning Isabelle’s call. After all, she wanted nothing to do with Isabelle. What purpose did it really serve her for calling me the last time? As if I have nothing else better to do than consorting with the likes of her. At the thought of that, Sophia decisively deleted all of Isabelle’s call logs and moved on.

Soon, Sophia headed downstairs and realized that Old Mrs. Constance was nowhere to be seen. After looking through every corner, she brushed off the thought and sat in front of the television.

A few moments later, her phone rang, and she thought Isabelle was calling for a second time. What’s wrong with this woman? Why didn’t she get it after the first missed call? Where is her sense of shame for calling me a second time? Nevertheless, Sophia was instantly taken aback as soon as her eyes fell upon her phone screen because it turned out that the caller was in fact Logan.

Sophia picked up the phone and asked with a smile, “What’s up, Logan?”

“Is John at home now? I can’t reach him. Is he busy at the moment?” Logan asked.

Sophia couldn’t help but feel surprised. “He is not home right now. At this hour, he should be in the office. You said you couldn’t reach him. Do you mean no one answered the call when you phoned him?”

“Yup, I made a few calls in fact, but none of them reached him,” Logan replied as he responded with an affirmative hum.

“Maybe he is in a meeting or something,” Sophia said after pondering for a short while.

Logan sounded a little hesitant when he indifferently replied, “Oh.” Then, he hung up the call after a brief pause.

Meanwhile, something didn’t seem right to Sophia as she reckoned Logan’s unusual nonchalance. Nevertheless, she continued to watch the television until she finally changed her mind and decided that it was better for her to give John a call. While the phone was ringing, no one answered the call, so she continued to call a few more times, but only to no avail. As she started to feel a little panicky, she quickly gave Zack a call but failed to reach him as well. This is rather odd.

Eventually, Sophia grew more and more anxious, as she could no longer sit still and enjoy watching TV. She then stood up and gave Logan a call once more. A few seconds later, Logan quickly picked up the call and responded with a hesitant voice. After that, Sophia immediately asked, “What happened to John? I can’t contact him either.”

Logan smacked his lips and answered, “John is fine, trust me. The reason I want to speak to him is that Husky is in some kind of trouble.”

Knowing that Husky was one of John’s right-hand men, Sophia knew something was definitely wrong. If Husky is in trouble, that means John could be in trouble too. Then, Sophia anxiously asked, “What happened to Husky?”

Logan sighed and replied, “Husky is now lying in the hospital. He is in a critical condition at the moment, and it looks like he has been assaulted.”

For a long while, Sophia didn’t say a single word as she pondered. Husky must have blown his cover when helping John in his investigation. If anything happens to Husky, John is bound to be dragged into the mess. The thought of that only served to unnerve Sophia even more. Thus, she quickly said, “Logan, please reach John for me. I want to know how he is right now. I’m a little worried about him.”

As the calmer person of the two, Logan comforted Sophia and reassured her everything would be fine. “Don’t worry. John is tougher than you think, plus he’s got a lot of bodyguards to protect him.” Despite saying that, Logan promised her that he would find out about John’s whereabouts by sending his men

to the Constance Group and the Bailey Residence if John wasn’t in his office. “I’ll keep you posted on what I find. So, just relax and stop overthinking.” Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Soon, Sophia was reminded of the bank that she and John passed by earlier today. Wait a minute! Could this have anything to do with the car that John investigated when we were at the bank?
