The Returning Ex Chapter 1086

Sophia nodded. “Was it the girl’s decision to abort the child?”

Logan’s expression turned complicated. “I don’t really know the details. The version I heard was that the Blackwells sought her out and said some nasty things along the lines of her blackmailing the Blackwell Family in the future with the child in her belly. That girl has a headstrong personality, so she aborted the child the very next day.”

Sophia let out a long sigh. She must have been truly wounded to go so far as to abort the child. If John and I were in that situation with a child on the way, and the Constance Family treated me in such a manner, I might not abort the child, but I certainly wouldn’t give him another chance in this lifetime.

After deliberating for a moment, Logan then added, “But I don’t think Fabian knew. When he learned about it, the child was long gone.”

This makes sense. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so dispirited now. Sophia didn’t know what to say about this either. The girl did nothing wrong, and perhaps neither did Fabian. However, it isn’t fair to blame the Blackwells either. They merely had a different stance, so their choice was different. But from the conversation between Old Mrs. Blackwell and Fabian’s mother back then, they seem to regret having done so. Nonetheless, what’s the use of regret now? A life was lost. Fabian is probably aware that whatever he does won’t help matters, so he simply fell into depression.

At this point, neither of them spoke further. The matter seemed to have entered a dead-end, and no one would be able to change this fact.

Meanwhile, Old Mrs. Constance was still chatting merrily with Lola, even holding her hand as she bemoaned, “I really want to introduce you to Dylan if you don’t have a boyfriend. Dylan is even- tempered, with a great personality and above-average looks. I think the two of you will truly make a good match.”

At the side, Sophia’s eyes widened. So, this is the real reason she’s been talking Lola’s ear off!

Beside her, Logan’s eyes widened as well. “This is underhanded of you, Old Mrs. Constance!” he exclaimed.

Old Mrs. Constance burst out laughing. “That was just an offhand remark. I can only lament since Lola already has a boyfriend.” Despite outwardly saying that everything she said earlier was just a joke, she still asked Lola all sorts of questions while holding her hand, and it was all basic information a girl would be asked while on a blind date.

Logan stared at her at the side. Never had I expected someone like Lola to gain Old Mrs. Constance’s favor! Logically speaking, wealthy families generally like girls who are gentle, polite, and sophisticated. It makes no sense that she likes someone like Lola.

Before the kitchen staff was done preparing dinner, someone came back—it was William and Matilda.

Surprise swamped Sophia. I didn’t expect them to come back today. Ever since they remarried, they’d been spending time alone, so they hadn’t been back for several days.

William was a tad surprised upon seeing Logan here. Grinning, he greeted him, saying, “You’re here, Logan?” Then, his gaze fell on the two ladies beside him. For a moment, he couldn’t quite deduce who they were.

Noticing this, Jasmine swiftly reached out and hugged Logan’s arm, scooting closer to him in feigned inadvertence. “Aren’t you going to introduce me, Logan?”

Grunting in assent, Logan got to his feet. “Mr. Constance, this is Jasmine Xanthos, my girlfriend.”
