The Returning Ex Chapter 850

That must be the reason why someone wants to mess with her. She probably deserves that for being an idiot! Preoccupied with those thoughts, Logan had returned to his lounge at his club with an overwhelmingly heavy heart, but even he couldn’t explain why.

Logan then paused for a short while and asked, “Are you free today? I’m a little bored here, so do you want to come over?”

Sophia knew Logan wanted someone to lend him a pair of ears, so she accepted his invitation without much hesitation. “Sure, I’ll be on my way now. Just give me a moment.” Soon, she proceeded to get changed and set out, but this time, she didn’t ask Matilda to come along since she figured Logan wanted to have some privacy when confiding. It would be better if she went alone.

Therefore, John sent some bodyguards to tag along with Sophia as they escorted her to Logan’s club. At that moment, Logan was eating in his lounge with a table full of beer bottles but only a few side dishes. Upon entering, Sophia happened to see Logan pouring himself a glass of beer with a resentful look on his face. She then took a quick glance across the table and asked, “Is this your lunch?”

When Logan saw the lady, he pointed at the empty seat beside him. “Come. Join me.”

Although Sophia had already taken her lunch, she decided to go along with Logan since he was in a bad mood. After that, she sat down beside him and helplessly glimpsed at the beer bottle. “You should keep off alcohol, especially when you’re feeling down. There is no telling what you might do if you get carried away.” Sophia grabbed the beer bottle and put it elsewhere.

The next moment, Logan stared at his beer for a few seconds, but he eventually took in Sophia’s advice. After taking a bite of the side dish, he put down his knife and fork. “The world would be a better place if every woman could be like you, Sophia.”

Amused by her friend’s response, Sophia burst into laughter. “You’d be bored to death in a world full of women who were cloned like me.” Soon, she grabbed a fork and took some of the dish for herself. “The diversity of characters is exactly what makes the world a beautiful place.”

Logan smacked his lips while eating. “I don’t understand why a nasty woman like her ever exists.”

Sophia looked down at her dish, eating while answering Logan. “To be honest, Lola is not a bad person. You only hate her because you both got off the wrong foot.” Then, she chuckled quietly and proceeded to mention Matilda. “Look at me and Madam Flintstone. We both used to be at each other’s throats, but look at us now; we’re just like besties! Do you really think Madam Flintstone is a bad person from the beginning? I don’t think so though. Despite our differences, the moment I saw how she treated Isabelle with kindness and gentleness was the moment I started to believe that she is someone with a pure heart. It’s just that the way we view things was different.” When she talked to Logan, her voice was exceedingly gentle. She knew what Logan was getting worked up for, and it was simply because of those petty grudges that had been building up in him since back then. Now, he was merely thinking of ways to vent his frustrations caused by the humiliation he suffered some time ago.

Although the only time that Sophia and Lola met didn’t exactly end well in the past, she knew Lola did the right thing since the latter was only following the correct law enforcement procedures. While an outsider would likely compliment Lola for doing a great job, Sophia knew Logan’s pride was preventing him from getting over his humiliation.

Upon hearing Sophia, Logan looked up at her in a doubtful manner. “Why do I have a feeling you’re siding with that b*tch?”

Sophia nodded and replied, “I think so too. I guess I must say that I’m perhaps a little biased toward Lola, but you need to understand something, Logan. Our life would be so much different if it weren’t for them.” After that, she added calmly, “Our society only prospers in harmony because of them. Think

about the money your club is making every day. If the law enforcers like Lola hadn’t done their job, would you have gotten this far?”
