Matilda was crying in her room, while William calmed her down patiently. She merely threw a tantrum in her bedroom the whole afternoon, and her tears only rolled when William appeared. Sighing, he patted her shoulder. “Sophia’s not a part of our family now, so you can’t treat her like how you used to. Besides, John needs to work with her, so be nicer to her, will you?”
Matilda sobbed. “Yes, I did insult her, but she kicked me.”
John went to knock on the door despite it being wide open, and when Matilda saw him, she cried louder.
William looked at his son. “What did she say?”
John replied calmly, “She said she won’t pursue this matter anymore, but she won’t come back. I might leave too.”
Now that this had happened, they couldn’t stay in the same house anymore. Putting Sophia aside, Matilda would cause a ruckus by herself, judging from her personality. In the end, she would get the short end of the stick. Thus, William nodded. “Sure. You’re an adult now, so you can leave anytime you want.”
Matilda pursed her lips and cried sadly. When William looked back at her, his tone softened down as he said, “Let me take a look. Where did you get kicked? Are you hurt? Do you still feel unwell? Do I need to call the family physician over?” John looked at his father. His concern was genuine, even after all these years; he was always this patient with Matilda. Sometimes when Matilda told him about her shopping, he could even ask her what happened.
So can two people who originally had no feelings for each other fall in love with time? John couldn’t understand this.
With John here, she couldn’t take off her clothes, so she told William how she was humiliated and how she never felt so insulted.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
So what happens to Ian and Cindy. Is she/ or does she get pregnant? Do they go back to the city and Ian works with Logan? Does Aurora stay in the entertainment industry or return with Ian? Terrible ending, who cares if Aurora was drinking/drunk with colleagues. What happened with Ian and Cindy?!...
Get rid of Gary. Apparently Cindy is too dumb to figure out his motives 😡...
Why are you trying to break them up when they just got together and are a loving couple. Let them stay close and move back to their true friends, Logan, Lola, John and Sophia!...
Sure hope Ian pulls his head out of his behind and works this out with Cindy. His brother needs him at the company and neither one of them truly like the celebrity life. Sophia and Lola will love her …....
I can’t wait for John to take down the Bailey’s including Isabelle so he, Sophia, William and Matilda can live in peace. Introduce Yolanda to Richard so they are out of the picture....
Ugh, don’t break up Sophia and John… they belong together and Sophia is just stubborn for no reason...
Sophia lives John, he just needs to tell her he loves her and get on with their life and family. Too much interference from others....
Sophia is so stupid....
John needs to man up, tell his mother and Isabelle to take a flying leap and confess to Sophia that he made a horrible mistake in divorcing her. This story is taking too long and once again, the bitches are looking like they are on the right side. Awful...
