The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Visibly angered, Sophia couldn’t help but raise her voice. On the other hand, Matilda was staring at her without even registering her attitude. Hesitantly, she stated, “You’re pregnant.” Seeing that Sophia remained silent, Matilda went on, “And I suppose John is the father?”

Sophia denied rather directly, “No, he’s not.”

Taking a deep breath, Matilda pointed out, “You don’t really associate yourself with other men except for John.”

After some thought, Matilda asked, “Does John not know about this?”

Meanwhile, Sophia folded the report so that she could tuck it into her pocket. “As I said, he’s not the father, so this has nothing to do with him.”

Although she didn’t like Sophia, she figured she shouldn’t be framing Sophia regardless of their relationship. With a frown, Matilda ignored what Sophia told her, all the while following her own line of thought. “Your belly will swell, so you won’t be able to hide the truth.”
