The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Sitting next to the bed, Matilda gave it a thought before saying, “I don’t get it. Why are you still so stubborn despite the fact that you already have his child? Wouldn’t it be great if you tell John about this, and the both of you could raise this child properly after you remarry each other?”

Sophia lay on her side in a fetal position and closed her eyes. “Would you do that if you’re in my shoes?”

Dumbfounded, Matilda knew that she wouldn’t do that, and she might be even more stubborn than Sophia. Taking the situation with William now for example, she desperately wanted to reconcile with him, but she was too proud to do so. Still, she kept hoping that he would come running to coax her like he always did before, and clarify his relationship with Yolanda.

Both William and Yolanda were the thorns pricking at her heart this whole time. But it seems that Sophia and John’s situation is more terrible than mine.

Although she wasn’t completely sure, she knew that John didn’t like Sophia before. From the way he behaved, it all showed that he never took her to heart.

Moreover, shortly after the passing of Old Mr. Constance when Sophia lost her only backup in the family, John had immediately brought up the divorce, proving that he didn’t care about her feelings at all. Hence, it was understandable that Sophia was now upset and couldn’t decide what to do with John.

If this happened to her in her younger years when she was still proud and stubborn, she would have packed her bags and left. With money in her hand, she could easily raise a child by herself.

Feeling a little tired, Sophia said, “Go and have your meal downstairs. I’m resting for a while.”

After a short pause, Matilda finally said, “Okay, just let us know when you’re hungry.” Seeing that Sophia didn’t reply, she then got up and left the room.
