The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Matilda snorted out loudly and looked at him as though he was an idiot. “If she really wants to remarry you because of the baby, she wouldn’t have waited until yesterday to break the news to you. Listen here, my silly boy. She was planning to hide this from you in the beginning. Don’t think too highly of yourself because she isn’t even interested in you.”

Casting her an unhappy look, he blurted, “You wouldn’t speak so badly of me in the past.”

That was when she shut her trap. There were many things in the past which shouldn’t be brought up, and whenever she recalled the things she had done before, she would unwittingly cringe and feel uneasy.

In the past, she had been too unreasonable, but still, not everything was her fault.

Pursing her lips, she finished her tea before saying in a soft voice, “During this period when I’m living by myself, I can’t fall asleep at night and that got me thinking, what had I done before that resulted in this turn in my life now? I had such a good life before this, so I couldn’t get it at all.”

Previously, when she was in the Constance Family, putting aside the amount of envy from other people that status brought her, people had to show her respect; even Old Mrs. Constance would usually tolerate her.

Despite that, when it came to the end, Old Mrs. Constance was the most determined one to abandon her. Even though William seemed to be hesitating, she could tell that his patience for her had worn out.

Exactly when did these people change their attitudes toward her? She thought about this over and over in her head, and felt that it was around the time when Sophia returned to live in the old residence again. During that period, Sophia had zero regards for her and their conflicts turned even more severe. Thereafter, Old Mrs. Constance kept reprimanding her.
