The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

With her brows knitted together, Sophia gave John a meaningful glance. “You looked kind of upset.”

Pinching her face, John grinned. “Nonsense. I look happy whenever I see you.”

Just then, something crossed his mind. “Don’t wander off on your own for these few days. If you need anything, I’ll send someone over to get it for you. I was followed when I was on the way back just now. They didn’t do anything, so I’m not sure what they were up to.”

Shocked, Sophia asked, “You were followed during broad daylight? What were they planning to do?”

Letting out a sigh, John said, “I’m not sure whether they were after me or you. Just in case, you’d better not wander off on your own and stay at home. Let me know if you need anything. I’ll send someone over.”

Placing her hands on her belly, Sophia nodded obediently.

At times, she might be stubborn, but this time, she had to listen to him. She was no longer on her own, as she had to bear a mother’s responsibility.

Holding Sophia in his arms, John said, “Let’s go. I need to finish my meal.”

As soon as they reached the dining hall, Matilda had just finished her dinner, but she looked kind of enervated. When she saw both of them coming over, she excused herself, and went upstairs to rest for a bit.

Once Matilda had gone upstairs, Sophia remarked, “Since this morning, Madam Flintstone seemed rather lifeless. I don’t know what’s gotten into her.”
