This was indeed something that John would do.
Everyone got into the car with the driver, and John held the baby steady. The baby had been sleeping all along with his eyes closed, looking a little silly. John couldn’t hold back and bowed his head to kiss the baby.
Matilda smiled next to him. “You are behaving better than your dad. When I gave birth to you, your dad didn’t even dare to touch you. During the whole month, your dad never held you, saying that you were too soft, and he feared hurting you.”
Sophia couldn’t help laughing at the side. “I didn’t know that Dad is so cowardly when it comes to this.”
“Right?” Matilda continued, “You see, since this little boy right here was born, we’ve all taken turns holding him, but your dad still doesn’t dare to touch him. He asked me last night what it’s like to hold a baby, so I told him to try holding the baby today, but he didn’t dare at all.”
Sophia thought of when William was in the ward. Indeed, he only walked around the crib all the time and didn’t dare to touch or stroke, let alone hold the baby.
After thinking about it, Sophia said, “I saw Uncle Owen holding the baby the other day, and I felt that he was quite good at it.”
Matilda nodded. “Owen was very good to children back then. When Dylan was young, he took him wherever he went.”
Hearing this, John also spoke up. “Yeah, I used to envy Dylan very much and thought that Uncle Owen was very good to him.”
When Matilda heard John’s words, she wanted to put in a good word for William. “Your dad is good to you too, but he is not very good at expressing it. In the past, when you were asleep, your dad watched over you by the side. He could sit there and watch you sleep for more than an hour.”
John chuckled. “What are you so nervous about? I just agreed with what you said and never said that my dad wasn’t good to me.”
Matilda nodded. “I’m just siding with my husband.”
With that said, the others somehow felt that she was showing off her love for William.
The car drove all the way back to the Constance Residence, and Old Mrs. Constance was already waiting in the parking lot.
After the car stopped, she hurried over. She first asked if Sophia was alright, then went over to John and stared at the baby in his arms. The baby twisted his body, and upon hearing the noises, opened his eyes.

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...
