At Old Mr. Jefferson’s intrusive suggestion, the Baileys were stunned. Even Sophia and John were both surprised at his remark. The couple definitely was not considering having children.
In the past, Sophia had dreamed of having children with John. Now, she only felt thankful that she did not bear his child. Otherwise, her life would have been turned upside-down.
Sophia was the first to smile at Old Mr. Jefferson. “Well, we’re not in a hurry to have kids. It’s only been a year since our marriage, and he’s so busy. We don’t have much time to enjoy our newlywed period, so I’d prefer to stay this way for now and only consider having children in the future.”
John was holding her hand, and he felt the ring on her finger. Playing along, he added, “Yeah, we’re not considering kids for now. It’s best to enjoy the newlywed life for now.”
Old Mr. Jefferson nodded at them. “That’s true. With kids, you won’t have much time between yourselves.”
John and Sophia smiled politely at him and stopped replying. Soon, he left with her, and Logan left after them.
The three of them bid their farewell to the people in the room. After two of them left, everyone knew that the dinner would have to wrap up soon.
Feeling happy, Sophia allowed John to hold her hand until the entrance of the hotel.
Tonight, Logan did not drink, and he strode behind them. “Alright. You guys should head home. I will go back to my clubhouse as well.”
Sophia had some reminders for Logan, but due to John’s presence, she could not talk freely to Logan. However, John turned around and asked Logan without hesitation, “Why are the Baileys meeting with the Jeffersons?”
Logan clicked his tongue. “I’m confused too. Just now, at dinner, that old fellow from the Baileys discussed his business with my sister. Maybe he’s thinking of doing business with my family.”
Pursing his lips, John sank into deep thoughts but could not piece the puzzle. He could only say goodbye to Logan for now and led Sophia into the car.

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...
