The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

John shut up, and William looked at Matilda, then he realized he had no grounds to talk about this, for he also had the same relationship problem. Halfway through dinner, William’s phone rang, and he seemed to be surprised about the caller, then he glanced at Matilda.

Sophia noticed his change of expression, and she grinned. “Why are your employees calling you after work? So inconsiderate.”

William laughed nervously. “You guys carry on. I’ll take this call.” He then went to the yard with his phone in hand.

Sophia smiled and went on with her dinner. “Ms. Bloom knows about Mr. Constance’s every move, doesn’t she?” she said.

Matilda looked at Sophia, surprised, and John shared the same sentiment. “You’re saying that Ms. Bloom’s the caller?”

Sophia wasn’t entirely sure, for she didn’t see the name. “Most probably,” she concluded.

John looked at Matilda. “Maybe something came up. I think Dad’s just helping her. You guys know he’s a kind guy who’d help anyone. It’s going to be the same even if it’s not Ms. Bloom, so don’t worry.”

Sophia took a few pieces of meat. “You don’t have to explain, you know.” She didn’t look at John. “Nobody’s saying anything, so you’re just making things worse.”

John sighed. “Fine then.”
