The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 626

Sophia snorted while thinking to herself, You came to me only after I was married, so I know what is going through your mind. After that, she replied, “Now that you’ve met me in person, you can leave now.”

As if unaware of the disdain and impatience within Sophia’s tone, Sophia’s father refused to give in. “Sophia, I miss you dearly after not seeing you for such a long time.”

With a chuckle, Sophia shot back, “Did you contact that woman? She told me almost the same thing as what you are saying. Did you have a discussion with her prior to meeting me?”

There was a pause in her father’s movement before he went on, “What are you talking about?”

Meanwhile, Sophia wore a smug look on her face. “You must already be remarried. Do you already have other children? Judging from how you look, you seem to be doing alright.”

Her pointed remarks left him feeling humiliated. On the other hand, the tipsy villagers began yelling at him. “Walter, you are such a prick! Both you and your wife abandoned your father and Sophia! You didn’t even come home when your father passed away, so why are you here now?”

With a pout, Walter said in grief, “I had my own problems, or else I wouldn’t have left them. I didn’t want to drag them down with my own problems.”

However, Sophia took a jab at him loudly. “Then why is it that you would marry and even have kids with someone else? Aren’t you afraid of dragging your other family down?”

Walter looked at Sophia while trying to explain himself. “Sophia, I know you blame me for what I did, and I deserve it. I owed you and your grandfather a lot. However, I am still your father. The fact that we are connected by blood persists no matter what happened between us.”

Smirking, Sophia continued, “We needed someone to perform the rites for the funeral when my grandfather passed away. Since you were nowhere to be found, I was the one who did it. You can ask the other villagers. They will tell you under what circumstances that I, the granddaughter of the deceased, can take the place of the eldest son to perform the rite.”
