The Returning Ex

Frankly speaking, Sophia didn’t know what was fun around here either. Moreover, she wasn’t the adventurous nor playful type.
The only reason she came on this trip was that she wanted a change of pace and an escape from her problems. Alas, things had
gradually progressed to this point before she knew it.
Propping her chin on her hand, she leaned forward. “I don’t know what fun places there are around here either. Why don’t I
search online on where to go sight-seeing later?”
She spoke carelessly and casually as if she wasn’t aware of how inappropriate it was for her to be sitting in that position. The
swimsuit she had on was the more revealing type. Coupled with the fact that she was leaning forward, her chest area was not
quite concealed.
John cleared his throat slightly and shifted his gaze away. Although they had performed all sorts of intimate acts together in the
past, he still wasn’t used to looking at her. After all, they had always done those acts in the dark. Therefore, he had never seen
her figure in detail before.
When she saw him averting his gaze, she felt like laughing. However, she didn’t change her posture. “Aren’t you going to swim?”
There might be a lot of people here, but most were congregated around the shallow areas. So, the areas where the water was
deeper were relatively quiet.
He turned his head to look at the deeper area. Originally, he came here to swim a few laps to relax. However, after meeting
Sophia here, he gave up on that idea.
This woman makes me uneasy. I can’t help but feel that if I don’t watch over her, she will do something outrageous. To be
honest, I’m not afraid of what she might do.
But, I’m in a precarious situation right now. I don’t want her to bring any trouble to me. Still... the posture that she’s in right now...
it’s revealing her figure...
Suddenly, he stood up. “I’m going for a swim. Pay more attention to yourself.”
He might not have said what she should pay attention to, but they both understood what he meant.
Thus, she made a non-committal sound. Then, she watched as he headed to the swimming pool. Afterward, she slowly
straightened her posture and leaned back against the chair. The chair was hard and it was uncomfortable to sit on.

John entered the pool and slowly started doing laps around it. From where Sophia was sitting, she could see a shadow of him in
the swimming pool. After a while, she withdrew her gaze.
She didn’t know how to swim. The only reason she came here was to relieve herself of boredom. Now that John was here, she
inexplicably felt even more bored than before.
It feels like no matter how hard I try to seduce someone like John, it just doesn’t work.
Thus, she remained where she was and sighed. Just then, Zack came over. He had been watching Sophia and John from
elsewhere.
Sitting in the seat John had vacated, Zack frowned. “What were you talking about? Why did he abandon you here after only
saying a few words?”
Sophia leaned against the chair and adjusted her swimsuit, trying her best to cover herself up. “Nothing much. Since he was
already here, he decided to go for a swim.”
Zack tutted several times. “Seriously, I can’t believe that man...”
She laughed, recalling what happened just now. “Your boss mentioned that we’d be here for another two days. And, he asked
me if there was anywhere I wanted to go. I’ve never been here before. Do you know where to go sight-seeing here?”
He studied her for a moment, then he smiled all of a sudden. “I do. Didn’t we already go somewhere before? Unfortunately, it
wasn’t very fun. This time around, it’ll be different! You can bring your ex-husband with you to the Edge of the World! That place
is only meaningful when a couple goes there.”
She looked him in the eye and didn’t say anything for the time being.
Thus, he became excited. “I’ll help the two of you take some photos at the Edge of the World. I heard that if a couple takes
photos together there, your relationship will last for a long time.”
Finally, she couldn’t resist asking, “To be honest, I’ve been meaning to ask you. Why are you so persistent when it comes to
John and me? To me, it’s almost like you’re a pimp!”
He looked hurt. “How could you word it that way? I just hope that the two of you will end up together! Mainly, it’s because I think
you both suit each other. Another reason is that I get along with you!”

Then, Sophia understood. “If somebody else appears next to John, are you afraid you won’t be able to get along with her?”
“It’s not like I’m afraid I won’t be able to get along with her.” Zack scratched his head. “I just feel like... compared to somebody
else, I’d prefer it if you were the boss’ wife. It’s that simple. Besides, I do believe your ex-husband cares about you...”
