The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

When she looked up again, she saw William in the living room. Matilda frowned by reflex, and she muttered, “Why is he here?”

Ms. Cannon went to see who it was, and she smiled. “Why? You don’t want to see him?”

Matilda sighed. “Not exactly. I’m just surprised.” She then went back to the preparations, but Matilda would keep stealing glances at William. He was sitting on the sofa, chatting with the kids, looking happy.

Matilda fell into a daze. When they were in the Constance Residence, everyone would be chatting happily as long as she wasn’t around; she was a party pooper. Once preparations were done, Matilda went out. “Dinner’s ready, so take your talk to the table.”

William was here for dinner anyway, so they went to the dining room together, but Matilda went to the yard instead.

Sophia came out a moment later and stood beside her. “What’s the matter? Why are you evading him?”

Matilda smiled. “I am not. I’m just here for some fresh air.”

Sophia smirked quietly. A while later, another car came in, and it stopped beside William’s, much to the ladies’ surprise. As they watched the car door open, a woman came out of the car, and she waved at the people in it before it drove away.

Matilda smiled mockingly. Sophia didn’t know who that woman was, so she was surprised to see her coming up to her.
