The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

William went to put on his pajamas. Just as he fastened the last button, the phone rang again.

It was Yolanda again.

This time, William picked up the phone. “What’s up?”

Yolanda was laughing from the very beginning. “Nothing, I just felt a little bored and wanted to chat with you.”

William gave a noncommittal grunt, after which Yolanda pondered for a while before saying, “I actually went to the Constance Residence today.”

Sitting on his bed, he replied, “I heard.”

Yolanda gave a rational reason. She said, “You took care of me for a long time when I was injured, so I thought that I should visit and show my appreciation.”

After brief contemplation, William replied, “No, you don’t need to be so polite.”

Yolanda’s tone was still cheerful. “I saw Matilda and Sophia over there. That surprised me.”

The truth was that she was trying to sound him out. William naturally understood her underlying intention, but he was a placid man and wasn’t concerned about it. Hence, he simply went along with it and answered, “Yeah, the two of them will be staying here in the future.”

“I suppose that’s for the best. Sophia is pregnant, so she’ll get better care there.”
