The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1024

When Logan heard about John’s discovery, his interest was piqued, so he hurriedly asked, “What did they leave

behind? Is it something important?”

At the moment, John couldn’t tell if the bone was significant, therefore he just replied, “It’s a human bone.”

Hearing this, Logan widened his eyes in disbelief, as a human bone was indeed something important. In a probing

manner, he inquired, “You mean a murder case took place in the shadow bank before?” He then smacked his lips

and continued, “Have you brought the bone with you? What does it look like?”

John shook his head. “Why would I bring that with me? I put it back in the basement.”

Logan punched his left fist against his right palm and said, “When Lola arrives later, I’ll tell her about this. As a

former policewoman, she can tell the police to investigate this matter. Oh wow, it’s a freaking human bone. I’m

sure this isn’t a small case.”

Slumping into the couch, John said, “If that’s really a human bone, this matter will be more serious than we

imagined.”

After a pause, he told Logan that he was intercepted by Old Mr. Bailey’s men on his way here. Without going into

details, he went on to say that Old Mr. Bailey must have figured out that they were the ones behind the plot against

the Baileys.

Standing up straight, Logan yelled, “It’s not like I’m afraid of that old geezer! If he had the guts to offend me in the

past, I would have destroyed him a long time ago!”

Logan was always so confident of himself, as he didn’t think anyone was a match for him.

Having gotten used to his attitude, John even played along by nodding and said, “You’re right. Old Mr. Bailey had to

be terrified of you in the past, so he never dared to offend you. Now that he has offended me, thereby displeasing

you as well, he must be utterly regretful.”

Even Logan could hear the insincerity in his voice, therefore he tutted and said, “John, you’ve been affected

negatively by Sophia

You’ve become as sharp-tongued as she is now!” With a grin, John never responded to him again. Moments later,

Lola arrived in a hurry as she opened the car door and strode into the clubhouse. When she stepped into the hall,

she gazed at John and Logan before asking, “What is it? Have you found any new leads?” After making Lola take a

seat, Logan then said, “There’s something wrong with the shadow bank. The last time the police busted the place,

they must have overlooked something.” Lola blinked and turned to John. “You have found something there, right?”

John nodded. “Last night, my men found a basement beneath the bank.” “A basement?” Lola was startled. She had

asked her former colleagues for some information after the shadow bank was busted, but they never told her that

there was a basement. After giving it a thought, John explained, “It’s located in the corner of the yard, so it’s

difficult to find.” It was normal that the police overlooked this because the bank’s interior was complicated as there

were many twists and turns, hence it was understandable that they failed to notice the basement. Lola nodded. “I

see. I’ll tell my former colleagues about it and ask them to search the place again.” Then, she fixed her eyes on

John and said, “Thanks for revealing this trace to me.” With an impassive expression, John leaned against the couch

and replied, “I have my own motive for doing this, so it isn’t purely for bringing justice to the victims.” .
