The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Old Mrs. Constance’s movements were slow, so Sophia had to match her pace. The two of them went toward Old Mrs. Constance’s room, after which Sophia suddenly said, “That Madam Bloom appears to really like Mr. Constance.”

“Even you can tell.” Old Mrs. Constance nodded.

Laughing, she explained, “It’s really too obvious.”

Old Mrs. Constance nodded again and said earnestly, “To be honest, there isn’t any fault that I can find in her. However, the matter between her and William has always been a thorn in my heart. That year, she was the one who abandoned William, so I feel uncomfortable every time I think about it.”

Unsure of the incidents in the past, she merely gave a noncommittal grunt. When they went into the room, she did not leave at once.

Sophia helped Old Mrs. Constance get into bed, then she said, “But considering how we treated her today, won’t Mr. Constance be upset if he finds out? Will he think that we’re meddling in his private matter? Besides…”

Sophia hesitated before continuing, “Besides, what if he likes Madam Bloom?”

Laughing, Old Mrs. Constance glanced at Sophia. “Little brat, what do you want to find out from me? Just say it to my face.”
