The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Seemingly awkward, Matilda faked a cough and brushed Sophia off with a nonchalant grunt. It was only then that the call finally ended. Upon hanging up the call, Sophia happily chuckled while making her way downstairs.

At the same time, John and Old Mrs. Constance were seen sitting at the dining table, apparently waiting for Sophia’s arrival. However, John could guess what had likely happened when he noticed Sophia’s smile. As the lady sat down beside him, he caressed her hair with his palm. “Are you satisfied now?”

Sophia replied, “Yeah, but I still think Master William could be a little more aggressive. Anyway, things seem to be going well for them both right now, and if everything goes as planned, we’ll eventually see the happy ending we want. After all, they’re mutually in love with each other, so I really don’t understand why they’re acting like they don’t care for each other.”

Old Mrs. Constance agreed with Sophia as she turned her attention to John. “Exactly. If your dad can be like you, he’ll probably have already remarried Matilda.”

After hearing his grandmother, John shifted his gaze to Sophia and said, “If you can be as easy-going as my mother is, we’ll probably have remarried.” In response, Sophia stuck out her tongue at him with a smile. Because of Matilda’s matter, the three of them had a rather enjoyable lunch.

After lunch, John decided to spend their leisure time by taking Sophia for a walk around the Constance Residence. Since he didn’t have any topic to talk about in particular, John mentioned Lady Jennifer to Sophia since he had run into her just now. In that instant, Sophia was reminded of Lady Jennifer’s sour look when she saw her with Dylan previously. Although Sophia knew Lady Jennifer was concerned that Dylan couldn’t find a girlfriend because of her, she wished for her to know that she would never be with Dylan even if she wasn’t pregnant. After all, she still had a sense of shame, regardless of how others viewed her. People say we become wiser as we age, but it looks like that is not the case with Lady Jennifer. I can’t believe she still dwells on that matter.
