Old Mrs. Constance said to Sophia in a kindly tone, “I asked the kitchen to specially make this for you. It’s good for women.”
Pausing for a while with the spoon in her hand, she looked up at Old Mrs. Constance. The old woman was rather good at acting as she added, “Drink it. I heard that many women drink this during their confinement.” Truly invested in her acting, she turned her head to look at John. “You two should take good care of your body now for future’s sake.”
Speechless, John and Sophia looked at each other. John’s expression only stiffened for a few seconds before it broke into a smile. “Grandma, you’re very thoughtful.”
Staring at John, Old Mrs. Constance said, “It’s been almost a year since you two got married. There are some things that you two should start planning.”
Everyone present understood what she was hinting at. Sophia’s expression was a little stiff as she said, “Grandma, about this matter…”
“Actually, Sophia and I have been discussing this matter recently,” John interrupted her. “But this is really up to fate, and we can’t force things to happen quickly. In our opinion, it would be great if we’re successful, but we’re not in a hurry either if we’re not.”
Upon hearing that, Mrs. Constance stealthily signaled at John with her eyes. What nonsense is that? They’re practically divorced. It would be total chaos if they have a child now!
William looked a little surprised, but his thoughts were unlike Mrs. Constance’s. Withdrawing his gaze, he lowered his head and continued to have his meal. After thinking for a while, he finally said, “Personally, I really want to be a grandfather. I’m sure I would be very happy with a little one by my side.”
Sophia held her spoon, wondering what expression to put on her face. Should I smile, or should I act shy?
Mrs. Constance quickly piped up, “Yes, Belle is pretty smart. In the future, she will definitely be able to make a difference to the company. I wonder who will be lucky enough to marry such a good girl. It’s a pity that our family…”
Old Mrs. Constance glared at her coldly and interrupted, “Don’t talk with your mouth full.”
Mrs. Constance stopped talking abruptly. Although Old Mrs. Constance had rebuked her quite a few times recently, she had always done so in private. Because there were currently so many people around the dining table, it was terribly humiliating to be chastised by Old Mrs. Constance in such a direct manner.
In fact, William also felt that Mrs. Constance had gone overboard. This was no different from her forcing Sophia to bring Logan over the other day. Thus, he frowned and chided, “Why do you worry about who Miss Bailey will marry in the future? You should just worry about yourself now.”

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...
