Since the doctor had already handed her a slip, Sophia swallowed her superfluous question. With the slip in hand, she went to the blood test room. It was almost noon, so only a few people were left, and she had her blood taken right away. Looking at the receipt, she then saw that the results would be out in the afternoon itself.
She wasn’t quite certain how she left the hospital, and at such a time, she wasn’t in the mood to go to the shop either. As she walked, she stopped intermittently before finally calling it a day at a bus stop. Plopping down onto the bench there, she stared ahead at the cars coming and going.
It’ll be too much if I’m truly pregnant. It was a safe period for me back then, and even if I’m pregnant, it won’t be apparent so quickly, no? From what I see on the television, the symptoms will only appear a little after a month. She pulled at her hair.
It’s probably my overactive imagination. I never took any steps to prevent pregnancy before the divorce, yet I never got pregnant. At one point, I even suspected whether I was barren. Thus, how could I possibly be when it was my safe period then? This is just maddening!
Sophia sat there until noon when a call came in from John. Through the line, he said he was at her shop before bombarding her with questions—why she didn’t go to the shop; where she was; whether she was still having gastric problems.
At his barrage of questions, she didn’t quite know which to answer. Sighing, she then massaged her temples. “I’m outside, but there’s no taxi now.”
At this, John promptly asked, “Where are you? I’ll come and drive you.” Sophia then told him her location, upon which he asked her to wait for a while before hanging up the phone.
Putting her cell phone away, Sophia then stroked her stomach, her head feeling heavy.
Meanwhile, over at the shop, John bid Robin farewell and made to leave after ending his call with Sophia. Robin hurried over to him. “Are you going to look for Sophia?”
John grunted in affirmation. “She’s outside, so I’m going to drive her.”

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...
