Matilda quickly urged John to get some rest, but he said with a smile, “It’s alright. Since I always used to sit in the office, this is some much needed exercise, so I think it’s fine.”
Letting out a cry, Matilda tried to persuade him, “You should put yourself to better use by flipping through and signing documents instead of working manual labor.” Her response caused Sophia to glance at Matilda from the corner of her eye with a smirk.
Although Matilda didn’t like Sophia, she stayed the course of the night before leaving with John. Sophia saw them off by the door. Despite their history, Sophia wasn’t going to fuss over it as Matilda was behaving much better compared to before, so she wished Matilda a safe trip home.
With a sophisticated look on her face, Matilda was still trying to act tough. “Just go back in. This house belongs to my son, so I don’t need you to send me off.”
Sophia obeyed her by turning to leave for the house, while Matilda got in the car and watched her close the door behind her before questioning pointedly, “I don’t get it. Why do you even like someone like her? Just look at how impartial she was to her elders. She didn’t even smile at me!”
John smiled in resignation before asking, “Why would she when you used to brawl with each other?”
Snorting, Matilda averted her gaze. “I just can’t bring myself to like her.”
John hummed in response. “Neither can she.”
By the next day, Sophia went to the hospital as it was time for a B-scan. She made an appointment last night on the hospital’s website before going there early the next morning. Although she didn’t spend much time waiting, it was still somewhat tormenting.
She was panicking a little, and for a fraction of a second, she considered giving John a call to get him to come. However, she was sensible enough to push the idea down.

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...
