The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1298

Beside them, John finally opened his mouth. “Have you decided on the agency?”

Ian’s gaze swept past John, and he paused before grunting gently.

Receiving a reaction from Ian, John nodded. “That’s good. Next time, I’ll personally greet their manager and get more resources for you.”Look at him! Everything was fine when he kept quiet. The moment he opens his mouth, he’s stirring up anger!With her hand still holding his, Sophia gave him a pinch, signaling at him to shut up.

He turned to look at her with a satisfying grin and chirped, “Alright, alright. I’ll stop here. Why did you pinch me hard?”What a shameless man!Sophia was at the end of her wits.

Lola had a feeling that something was off among the other guests. She hurriedly moved the fruit platter to her side and said loudly, “Logan, have some fruits! Are you feeling better from the hangover?”

He didn’t know that Lola was trying to save the situation. Even so, he responded to her, “Yeah. I’m feeling better now.”

Handing the fruit platter to Sophia, Lola uttered, “Miss Gwendolyn, have some fruits too! I heard that if you eat a lot of fruits during your pregnancy, your baby will turn out to be radiant and lovely!”

Sophia beamed at her. “Sure, thank you. But please don’t call me ‘Miss Gwendolyn’ anymore. You can call me ‘Sophia’ like they do.”

Lola nodded at her. “Okay.” With that, the uncomfortable topic just now finally came to an end. After a while, all the dishes were served.

Since Logan had had too much to drink at lunch, he definitely could not take more alcohol now. Instead, his cup was filled with a yogurt drink. On the other hand, John and Ian were drinking.

During the dinner, the atmosphere was quite comfortable. John and Ian were the only two to drink, and they seemed to have relaxed a little around each other. A while later, Logan did not forget to take out the marriage certificate from his pocket and slapped it on the table. Then, he moved the certificate across the table to make sure everyone took a good look at it. “Take a look! This is my marriage certificate.”

Sophia and John didn’t bother to even take a look. Only Ian was courteous enough to take a glance at it. Logan’s behavior was embarrassing to his wife. Covering her face, she turned away from the scene.

When Logan got his marriage certificate back, Sophia mocked him, “Logan, you’re such a show-off. When you have a kid, do you plan to show off the baby like you just did?” Then, she advised Lola, “Lola, you need to discipline him. It’s better for a man to act mature.”

Lola sighed. “It will take some time, but I’ll try my best.”

Happily storing his new prized possession, Logan said, “Don’t speak in that sarcastic tone. If you’re envious, just tell me.”

Sophia snorted and stared at him. “Why should I be envious of you? I have my marriage certificate at home, and I’m carrying a baby now. In fact, I have one more thing to show off compared to you.”

Logan stared back at her, speechless, but he soon turned his focus onto Ian. “I was referring to him.”

Ian smiled defeatedly. “Look, he is picking on the disadvantaged ones in this case. When he can’t win over you, he comes after me.”

After Ian made his comment, Logan split his sides laughing. “You know that I can never win an argument with her. I have no choice either.” The group then proceeded to chat and laugh while eating.

Since Logan didn’t plan to drink, the dinner didn’t last too long. When John and Ian were done with drinking, the dinner came to an end. However, Logan was not over it yet. “Next time, we should find time to have a proper drinking session. I’m a little messed up today. If I had foreseen this, I would not have challenged my four sisters to drink at lunch!”

Ian said, “It’s fine. We can sit around to chat and eat. It was a great time. We don’t always have to drink.”
