The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Initially, Sophia was only feigning sleep so she wouldn’t have to face John alone, but then she drifted to sleep. When she woke up, the nurse was about to give her an injection. It was a hemostatic injection, and it contained anti-inflammatory medicine.

Zack and John were still sitting on the sofa in the ward. After Zack was done reading the document, he handed it to John for approval. None of them looked at Sophia.

Looking at the nurse, Sophia pursed her lips. “I don’t need the injection. This has been a problem for quite a while now, so I’ll just take the meds.”

The nurse didn’t smile at her. “Do you know how serious your condition is? It’s precisely because you don’t care that you’re in this shape. You’re still young, so take care of it, or it’ll haunt you for life.” She took out the tourniquet.

Sophia extended her hand reluctantly, and the nurse wrapped the tourniquet around her as she patted Sophia’s hand. “You’re so young, so how did your problem get so serious?”

Sophia looked away from the syringe, but she answered, “I didn’t pay attention to it, so this happened.”

John was reading his document, but then he looked up at Sophia. She was obviously scared of getting injected, but still she toughed it out. John was curious, for Sophia changed after the divorce.
