After glancing at Sophia, the old man said, “Sophia, you don’t seem to be doing that well.”
Sophia lifted her head while telling him, “Nah, I’m doing just fine. I set up a shop over there, which is making me quite a lot of money, so I’m good.”
Meanwhile, Mrs. Hensley was serving them their meal. She knew that no matter how Sophia was doing, the latter wouldn’t tell them much about it, so she said, “Alright, everyone. Sophia must be tired, so we should let her rest. We can come over after she has rested, since she will be here and won’t be leaving any time soon.”
As soon as the others heard Mrs. Hensley, the rest of the occupants stood while telling Sophia to take care. They were all kind people who hailed from the same village as her. After sending them off, Sophia returned to her room.
In the house, there was a simple and worn frame which held a photograph that was taken from many years ago.
Sophia could be seen leaning against her grandfather’s legs in the photo. She was probably twelve or thirteen, while her grandfather’s hair was still mostly black. Smiling, he was looking toward the camera. Sophia caressed her belly while staring at the photo for a long time before murmuring, “Look, this is the guy who protected me for more than twenty years, so you have to remember him.”
After having something to eat, Sophia lay down. Due to how tired she was after all the hiking she did, she fell asleep as soon as she lay down, after which she slept through the rest of the day. It was night when she was roused by a phone call. Without even checking the caller ID, she picked up upon reaching for the phone. “What’s up?”
John’s voice could be heard over the line. “Sophia.”

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...
