The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Looking at him so cowardly, Sophia didn’t care to speak anymore. Both of them went out after staying in the room for a short while.

Sophia went to the room next door to get Matilda, who wasn’t actually asleep. Now that she was back here, she couldn’t really get used to it, so she kept standing at the window looking out.

She had seen William and John coming back together. At first, she had wanted to go and greet them, but she felt that it would be a bit too abrupt to do so, hence, she had suppressed it.

Sophia did not knock on the door but opened it directly. “Come and have lunch.”

Turning around, Matilda looked at Sophia and said, “Sure. I’ll wash my face first and go down in a minute.”

Sophia pulled John’s arm. “Then we’ll go ahead first.” After speaking, she withdrew from the room, closed the door, and then asked John, “Is your dad back yet?”

John didn’t know what she was going to do, so he merely nodded. Sophia patted John on the shoulder. “Come, come. Let’s go downstairs quickly.”

As they went down, they saw William sitting next to Old Mrs. Constance and saying something to her. Sophia went down and greeted, “Hello, Mr. Constance.”

Old Mrs. Constance laughed. “He came back with John and went upstairs but came down again without doing anything.”

Hearing her words, William was mortified, so he immediately chided, “Mom, why are you…”
