“Yes.” John went over to play with the baby. “When a child grows up, his father needs to be with him. This stage is critical.”
Sophia couldn’t bear to listen to his nonsense anymore, so she turned away to go and sit on the sofa.
Old Mrs. Constance looked at the baby and then at John. “Okay, okay. You’re a first-time father, so I understand how you feel.”
Laughing, John walked toward the dining hall with his arms around Old Mrs. Constance’s shoulders. “I’m thinking of finding some time to visit Grandpa’s grave and tell him the good news.”
Old Mrs. Constance nodded. “Yeah, I’ve thought about this too. Your grandfather will be very happy when he learns about this.”
On the sofa, Sophia was reminded of her own grandfather. She also remembered the hallucinations she had when she was in labor. It was etched in her mind that who she saw was her grandfather.
The old man was probably there to see her and her child.
After Sophia drank the soup, she followed everyone to the dining hall for breakfast.
The baby waved his arms alone in the crib in the living room without crying at all.
John seemed to be unable to bear the baby staying alone in the living room. After a few bites of food, John rushed out and carried him over.
The postnatal caregiver reminded him, “Try not to carry him all the time. Children are smart. If you keep doing this, they’ll become clingy in the future.”
John didn’t care about that. “It’s okay. If he clings to me, then I’ll hold him. I have a lot of time.”
He had just become a father, and it was still a novel experience to him, to the extent that he wished he could hold the baby forever.
Sophia leaned over and teased her son a little. “If he likes it, then just let him hold the baby. In the future, if the child becomes clingy, he’ll be responsible for carrying him.”
John looked a little prideful. “It’s my own son, so I’m happy to hold him.”
Matilda tutted a few times next to him. “Look at him. It’s as if he is the only person in the world who has a son.”
Old Mrs. Constance spoke up. “Before you chide your son, think about what your husband was like back then.”
At the beginning of the confinement period, Sophia felt quite content, but after a few days, she couldn’t bear it anymore.
She wasn’t allowed to do anything except eat and sleep every day. Life was even more boring than when she was pregnant.

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...
