John turned his head to look at Sophia. “I finally slept well after holding you last night.”
Sophia huffed. “I was scared out of my wits last night when someone sneaked into my bed. I almost screamed for someone to catch the pervert.”
Curling his lips, he leaned directly against the head of the bed. “So you woke up last night and even deliberately snuggled into my arms.”
Sophia tutted at him. “I’m not gonna bicker with you anymore. I’m going to see my darling.”
With that, she went out of the room and headed to the nursery. The baby woke up a long time ago and had been carried downstairs by the postnatal caregiver.
Sophia turned around and went downstairs. When she reached the stairs, she saw the baby kicking his little feet and waving his little hands in the crib.
He had changed into red clothes, making him look very feisty. The red color also caused his skin to look fairer by contrast.
Compared to how he looked a few days ago, he looked way better now.
Sophia’s heart was a gooey mess as she looked at him. Indeed, as Matilda said, maternal love would get deeper and deeper with the passage of time.
Just then, Matilda came out from the kitchen with a bowl of soup in her hands. “Oh, you’ve come down. I wanted to bring this up to you. Come and drink the soup.”
Sophia skipped down the stairs.
Seeing her, Matilda shook her head helplessly. “You look as if you have never given birth. I remember that when I gave birth to John… Ugh, I was as fat as a ball.”
Sophia chuckled. “Perhaps it’s genetics. No one in my family gets fat.”
Or perhaps it was because she was malnourished during her childhood, so she had always remained thin.
Sophia took the bowl of soup and went to the crib. The little baby blinked his eyes, staring at her without any expression.
He didn’t seem to be able to make any expressions other than the crying one for now. Sophia put out a hand and touched the baby’s hand, which was soft and fair.
Matilda came up from the side. “This little one woke up at night. But unlike other children, he just looked for something to eat with his mouth open without crying.”
Sophia didn’t wake up in the middle of the night to feed the baby and instead slept soundly until the next day. Naturally, she didn’t know what it was like when the child woke up in the middle of the night.

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...
