The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1418

Ian was unused to having a woman busying herself in his house. After spending some time staring at the TV, he

returned to his room as he couldn’t focus on watching it anyway. He left the blanket that Cindy used on the sofa,

then locked himself in his room before making his way to the window.

Now, he was feeling a little irritated by his unconventional relationship with Cindy, but upon closer introspection, he

realized there wasn’t anything of substance between them to begin with.

After spending some time by the window, Logan’s call came through. With how busy he was taking care of his wife,

Ian was surprised that Logan even had time to contact him. As soon as the call connected, Logan said, “I didn’t

expect you to create such a huge ruckus when I wasn’t looking! Have you finally decided to date your assistant?”

Ian didn’t need to keep anything from Logan, so he told the latter the truth. “It’s fake. We did everything to deal

with the scandal.”

Logan let out a chuckle before continuing, “Seems like my guess was correct. I think you two are quite compatible

with each other though. Despite how things started between you two, you still have a chance of turning it into a real

relationship.”

Ian sniggered. “It’s a pity that you aren’t working as a script writer.” After that, he added, “I can’t possibly date my

assistant.”

“Why not? Anything is possible,” Logan answered without hesitation. “You can take Lola and I as an example.

Nobody expected us to get married. We got off on the wrong foot, so for the longest time, we were practically each

other’s nemesis, but you should look at us now. Our relationship back then was a hundred times worse than your

relationship with your assistant now. Nothing is impossible, as all that is needed is effort.”

There was a hint of joy in Logan’s voice, which made Ian think that he was trying to show off his relationship with

Lola. Therefore, Ian chuckled before replying, “Not everybody gets to be as lucky as you to be able to meet

someone who would reciprocate your feelings. It’s just too slim of a chance.”

Ian figured that Logan was a lucky b*stard, as the latter only ever encountered minor hurdles in life.

Since Logan managed to marry the first woman whom he fell for, Ian didn’t expect him to understand his situation.

With no intention to make Logan understand his thoughts and keep the conversation revolving around the

nonexistent relationship between Cindy and himself, Ian changed the topic, asking Logan how Lola and him were

doing instead. Logan got even more chatty at the mention of his wife, telling Ian about how Lola had thinned due to

a severe case of morning sickness. Despite the fact that he had hired a nutritionist to prepare Lola’s meals for her,

she still hadn’t been eating much. Besides, she also got a lot more pickier when it came to food, with some of them

including seasonal ingredients, so Logan had to buy them from abroad. Instead of finding the labor arduous, he was

proud to fulfill Lola’s every request, as was obvious from his tone while he spoke. Meanwhile, Ian listened on in

silence while wearing a gentle expression on his face. He figured that Logan’s relationship might be the epitome of

love, for it was capable of transforming someone as uncouth as Logan into such a caring man. To be honest, Ian

was a little envious of him. The person whom Ian envied the most was John, and Logan was the next. On the other

end of the call, Logan had been blabbering for a while, until Lola called out to him. After turning around to answer

her, Logan told Ian, “I’ll have to let you go now. Lola needs my help. I need to check on her.” Ian replied, “Mmh. Go

on. Enjoy your married life.” Logan chuckled before saying snidely, “I heard that you’re living with your assistant

now. Even if it’s a fake relationship, at least your life is improving.” A frown crept onto Ian’s face, but Logan hung up

before he could react. Shaking his head, Ian put his phone away, all the while wondering what Logan meant by that.

In his opinion, he didn’t consider this as cohabitation with Cindy.
