Sophia didn’t know Walter well, as she had no memory of him at all. However, the fact that he kept on quibbling despite being reprimanded by the crowd was indication that he might be a somewhat shady character.
Besides, Sophia noticed that a savage look flashed across Walter’s face when he was riled up after being reprimanded. If it wasn’t for the fact that he was at a disadvantage, he might very well have assaulted her on the spot.
Heaving a sigh, Sophia figured that after spending all those years apart from one another, they never had much of a relationship to begin with. If things went awry between them, Walter might very well assault her, which was a cause for hesitation on Sophia’s part.
Meanwhile, John crouched down before her slowly. “Considering the circumstances, I will be worried if I leave you here alone. Sophia, please come with me. Besides, we will also be able to find jobs for the villagers when we get back. Whoever that wishes to come with us can come. I will take care of everything when we get there, so you have nothing to worry about.”
Staring at him, Sophia pouted. He reached out to hold her hand. “Judging from what I saw earlier, I suppose the future will be laden with trouble, so you shouldn’t stay here. The villagers won’t be able to defend you all the time. Mr. Gwendolyn was obviously planning to do this for the long term, which will leave you in a vulnerable position.”
Sophia recognized what John told her to be true. No matter what he did, he was still legally her father, so the villagers wouldn’t be able to do much to help if he were to bring it to court. Moreover, she was pregnant, so she couldn’t possibly butt heads with him. Thus, it only took her a moment before coming to a decision. “Alright, we will go back.”

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...
