The Returning EX (Sophia and John) novel Chapter 224

 

 

 

Hearing footsteps coming from the stairs, John said directly to the phone, “I’m busy here right now, so I’ll be hanging up.”

 

After speaking, he hung up the phone.

Sophia wore shorts with suspenders and white sneakers, while her hair was tied up in a ponytail on this day, making her look charming and energetic.

As John’s gaze fell on Sophia, it took a while before he looked away. He only realized now after they had divorced that Sophia’s appearance had changed too; she seemed to look a lot younger.

He tried hard to remember how Sophia looked before, but he couldn’t remember it clearly. Nevertheless, all he remembered was her dull personality, looking depressed everyday, which made her appear older than her current self.

Sophia looked at John. “Let’s go. I’m all ready.”

With a grunt, John turned around and left the house first. They locked the door and the two went into the car.

As soon as Sophia got into the car, she took off her shoes and sat cross-legged on the chair.

 

Glancing at her, John wondered when she developed this habit of crossing her legs. In his memory, she didn’t have this habit before.

The car drove all the way to Logan’s clubhouse.

Since it was the middle of the day, the streets were quiet and there weren’t many people around.

 

Logan had changed his clothes. Even though he was still in pajamas, they were light gray in color. The clothes fitted loosely on his body.

When he saw John’s car coming over as he stood by the entrance, he quickly ran out of the clubhouse. “Finally, you guys are here. I have been thinking about you guys.”

Sophia got out of the car and looked at him, a little disdainful. “If you really are sincere in welcoming us, at least get dressed up.”

Logan gave her a glare. “I changed my clothes specially to welcome you guys. Won’t this do?”

 

 

Since he was still in pajamas, it wouldn’t make a difference if he just changed into another set of pajamas.

Ian hadn’t arrived yet, so the three of them went up to the second floor first.

Naturally, they couldn’t just start the game like Logan wanted as they were still missing one player, so Logan took John and Sophia to the private room next door.

That private room had a larger space, and there was a large simulation racing game machine inside.

For the sake of making it realistic, the race cars were made to the size of actual race cars, and the models were all made according to existing race cars; only the track was being projected.

 

 

Logan looked at John. “Wanna give it a try?”

John smiled. “Sure.”

 

Thus, Logan went over and switched on the machine. The sound of the machine switching on was so loud that it could probably be heard by the people in the shops across the street. Then, the projector screen came down. In front of the race car, a realistic looking track appeared.

John straddled his long legs and got in the race car.

To Sophia, these things were incomprehensible to her. She couldn’t even understand the driving test book, let alone this. So, she turned around, went to a chair at the side and sat down.

As the game started, John sat in the race car and swung the steering wheel left and right to adjust the angle.
