Sophia was trying her best to listen in on what was going on outside of her room, but the house had great soundproof mechanics. It was thus she gave up on waiting, instead opting to flip over and shut her eyes. She quickly fell into a slumber that lasted till the next morning.
Her first reaction upon waking up was to check the view outside the window. The car was still parked at the entrance, which meant John was still in the house. After washing up, she headed downstairs with plans of boiling herself some noodles, but she changed her mind as she didn’t want to waste the food she cooked last night.
She opened the fridge, only to be startled by the extra item she found in it. Upon taking it out, she figured it was a lunchbox in a plastic bag, which she found out to be true after opening it. The content within was revealed to be pork leg soup as she took off the lid, which had a frown form on Sophia’s face as she wondered if John brought it back last night. Is this for me? Ha, he seemed to have somehow become more considerate! What a surprise! she thought to herself.
However, she put it back into the fridge, instead opting to heat up the dishes she made to eat them as breakfast in the dining room. John wasn’t up until a while later, and there was a momentary pause in his movements when he saw Sophia in the dining room, but he soon proceeded to approach her. “You slept early last night.”
Sophia wore a calm expression as she looked toward him. “I only saw your message just now. I slept early last night, so I didn’t see it till then. Was there something you needed?”
“Not really,” he said while sitting down, so Sophia didn’t pry any further. She also prepared his portion for breakfast, but he didn’t seem to have an appetite.
Upon noticing that John was only sitting by the table, she asked directly, “Don’t you have work today?”
He responded by shaking his head. “It’s Saturday, so I don’t have to work.”
Sophia chuckled, but it was hard to tell if it was sincere. “You used to work even during the weekends back then.”
Her words startled John, which had him lifting his gaze to look at her. However, she didn’t meet his gaze, so he wasn’t able to determine her intentions in saying what she did. She ate quickly, and was in the process of cleaning up when John finally said, “The ring looks nice on you.”

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...
