The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Putting on a half-smile, Sophia didn’t answer his question directly but said, “Back then, if you’d really got together with Isabelle, you’d probably live a happy life. Isabelle seems like an understanding woman and would be very submissive toward you. Your feelings for her would surely grow.”

Standing still, John turned to face Sophia and stopped her from walking further.

Noticing the indifferent expression on her face, John told her in a serious manner, “In this world, there’s no such thing as if. I’ve married you and fallen in love with you. This is reality now. There’s no point thinking about what could have happened. Sophia, are you bothered by the past? How can you possibly be sure that Isabelle and I will end up happy? Back then, you were really submissive to me too, but I still didn’t feel comfortable with you. Would it be any different if it was Isabelle? You’re being really unfair to me.”

Seeing that Sophia didn’t say anything, John sighed. “Sophia, you need to know this—I only have you in my heart. Seriously, I don’t feel secure at all knowing that you’re thinking of those unnecessary things.”

Feeling amused, Sophia almost couldn’t hold in her laughter.

It was surprising to know that John would actually feel insecure as well. In regards to relationships, she thought only women needed a sense of security.

A few seconds later, Sophia impatiently acknowledged what he said. “Fine. Got it.”

Slowly pulling her into a hug, John confessed, “Sometimes, I really don’t know what to do with you.”

What to do with me? Spoil me rotten then. What else? Sophia thought.
