After tossing around in her bed a couple of times, John fell asleep, and it seemed to her that he hadn’t heard a single word she said earlier.
Forget it, maybe he really drank too much, Sophia thought and went into the bathroom for a towel.
She wiped his face and hands before proceeding to take off his jacket. Although he was drunk, he was rather cooperative and removed his clothes as she wanted.
Finally, she placed the blankets over him and then went to his room. Even though she wasn’t used to his bed, she was tired and fell asleep soon after she lay down.
When it was almost daybreak, she was awakened by the sound of the door. Opening her eyes, she saw John coming into the room.
Without the need to ask, she already knew what he was up to, and she turned her back toward him. “You’re annoying.”
John grinned and hugged her from behind. “I can’t sleep when you’re not next to me.”
Couldn’t be bothered with him, she closed her eyes and continued to sleep until late morning without even knowing when he had left the room.
So she returned to her room and washed up before coming out again. That was when she heard Matilda’s voice from downstairs, saying, “That’s right, lay it out here where it’s slippery. That side as well, and also over there, that left side…”
Rushing to the top of the staircase, she glanced down and saw Matilda with a group of people who were placing carpets in the living room. Even the kitchen seemed to be covered in non-slip mats.
Watching from the top at Matilda, who had her hands on her hips, she did look like she had the stance as the mistress of the Constance Family from before. As she leaned against the handrail and observed, she had no intention of joining the commotion at all.
The workers carried huge pieces of carpets into the house and placed them carefully on the floor. The yoga mats which were there before had all been removed, and the hanging chair in the living room was moved aside, revealing a wide, open space.

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...
