The Returning Ex Chapter 1168

Isabelle let out a long sigh. “My father has absolute trust in me. I just hinted at it, and he arranged everything according to my idea. Those four useless men are the last thing I did for your sake. I don’t think I’ll be coming back, so we probably won’t meet again, barring any unforeseen circumstances in the future. So, goodbye, John. Goodbye.”

With a hint of a smile in her voice, she continued, “Please convey my regards to Sophia and tell her not to take offense at me for the wrongs I’ve done to her. It was my first time having feelings for someone, so I was bound to do everything possible to attain the person.”

At this, John sighed. He didn’t want to hear all this anymore, so he said, “Have a safe journey. You won’t be implicated in anything over here, so take care of yourself and have a good life.”

“Sure, I definitely will.” Just after Isabelle had said this, the broadcasting system started announcing the boarding call. Standing up, she repeated into the phone for the final time, “Goodbye, John.”

John’s voice turned gentle. “Okay, goodbye.” After hanging up, he put his cell phone away. Then, he turned around and walked over to the sofa, sitting down again.

Logan was still livid. Raising his head, he stared at John. “Well? What did that woman say? Did she implore you for mercy? Tell her to dream on!”

John shook his head. “No. Logan, those four men who abducted Miss Hunt today was arranged by Isabelle. I’d been wondering why they seemed so unprofessional, but they turned out to be a leeway she granted us.”

Entirely stunned, Logan’s jaw dropped. “What? It was actually Isabelle’s doing? I was also wondering whether they were working undercover considering their inept performance.”

At the side, Sophia pursed her lips. “It hadn’t been easy for her either. She took a risk in doing this.”

John nodded. It’s obvious that Elder Mr. Bailey and Old Mr. Bailey didn’t trust her much, so it really hadn’t been easy for her to arrange for those four men with her limited influence. As she said, this was the last thing she could do.

Lola never had any interaction with Isabelle, but after hearing all this, she lamented, “It’s truly remarkable that she could have stayed true to herself in a place such as the Bailey Family.”

Logan still didn’t quite like Isabelle, so he merely harrumphed softly upon hearing Lola’s compliment of her.

While they were talking, Old Mrs. Constance returned. She went to Blackwell Residence earlier and had initially planned to have dinner there before coming home, but she heard that something had happened, so she rushed home. Upon seeing John and Sophia in the living room, relief suffused her. Hurrying over, she asked the four of them, “You’re all back from Bailey Residence? Do you all know that something happened over there?”

John chuckled. “Yeah, we know. Something had indeed happened.”

Old Mrs. Constance didn’t get the whole story, so she came over and sat on the sofa. “What exactly happened? Come on, tell me the story.”

How should I start speaking about this matter? John didn’t know where to start. If I start from the very beginning, it’ll be a long and repugnant story. Regardless of whether Grandma minds listening, I truly don’t want to recall all those things again.

Shuffling to her feet, Sophia headed to the kitchen; no one was cooking on this day. Dinner was called off since John and Sophia were attending a birthday celebration, while Old Mrs. Constance went over to Blackwell Residence. Leaning against the kitchen door, Sophia peered around the kitchen before

returning to the sofa. “How about ordering takeout? If we start cooking now, I think it’ll be too late by the time the food is ready.”
