The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 599

Sophia took a deep breath, but still, she couldn’t help throwing up. She then promptly rinsed her mouth before turning on the faucet and washing her face. I’ve got gastric problems, and it’s a chronic illness at that, so this is probably my gastric problems rearing its head again.

Sure enough, I’ve got to take good care of myself. I’ve just slacked off a bit, and my body is already staging a protest, kicking up such a fuss!

After a while, she went downstairs. John and Logan were still there. During a lull in the conversation, John glanced at her, only to be taken aback. “What’s wrong? You look exceedingly pale.”

Sophia went to the kitchen to boil some water. “Gastric problems.”

John had once witnessed her long-standing gastric problems when she even vomited blood at Tri Asel back then. His brows creased. “Do you have any medicine here?”

Actually, there wasn’t any medicine here, but Sophia didn’t want to take any, so she replied, “Yes. I just took some medicine, but it doesn’t seem to have gone down properly. It’s stuck in my throat, making me feel rather discomfited, so I’ll just drink some water to wash it down.”

There were no flaws in her words, so John didn’t think too much of it.

After boiling some water, Sophia drank some in the kitchen, upon which her stomach felt somewhat better. Then, she went back upstairs. She initially planned to lie on the bed and scroll through her cell phone for a while, but once she climbed into bed, a rush of drowsiness immediately swept over her.

Losing her temper, she swore before putting down her cell phone. Ignoring Logan and John, she got up and locked the door before hitting the sack. She had no idea when the people downstairs left, for she slept right through the night.

When she woke up the next day, the sun was already shining brightly outside. As she sat up, her mind still felt fuzzy, but she then got out of bed to wash up after darting her gaze around. However, the moment the toothpaste went into her mouth, the same wave of nausea rose within her.
