The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Dad is indeed anticipating going on the business trip this time, for he can’t wait to escape this place. As far as John knew, Matilda seemed to be calling and texting William frequently these days, bugging him with invitations to have a meal together and requests to meet up.

And Mom isn’t the kind of person who beats around the bush, so she’s very straightforward, declaring that she wants to make up with him.

I’m not all that certain what Dad thinks of it all, but he definitely has no plans to start over with Mom right now. However, he can never be assertive and resolute with her, so he can’t bring himself to refuse her, yet he’s reluctant to agree. Hence, he can’t wait to leave this place so that he can take a breather.

After all, his social circle was limited, and he was very much like John, having no pastime save going to the office. Thus, she truly had no inkling of any lady he’d ever associated with and developed feelings for at that.

Old Mrs. Constance was likewise at a loss, so she asked her whether he often mentioned any one of the ladies she introduced to him recently, thinking that it might be one of those ladies.
