Standing at the kitchen doorway, Matilda glanced at her, gave her a thumbs-up, and disappeared into the dining room with the dinner. Sophia blinked and turned back to John, who was gazing at her intently. Suddenly, her heart began to pound violently, and she took a deep breath. “There’s something I want to tell you, but I don’t know where to begin.”
John nodded. “Just tell me. There’s nothing which can’t be said between us.”
Despite that, she blinked blankly at him, unsure of how to bring up the topic as he stared at her, feeling as though he knew what was coming up next.
Seeing that she was quiet, he suggested, “Alright, then. I’ll ask the questions, and you’ll just answer yes or no.”
Immediately, she bobbed her head in agreement. “Okay, you can ask me.”
Lowering his eyes to her belly, he asked, “Previously when you were feeling unwell, it wasn’t because of gastric, was it?”
“Yeah,” she answered with a guilty conscience. “It wasn’t because of gastric.”
As he stared at her, she lost the guts to look at him, and he breathed deeply. “Did your menstrual stop for a long time?”
Actually, he wasn’t sure about her monthly cycle because they hadn’t lived together for a while. Still, he felt that the sanitary napkins in her closet had remained untouched for some time now.
Sophia’s heart shuddered at his words. This man… he already knows?
Slowly, she let out a sigh and nodded after a long pause. “For more than a month now.”
This time, John didn’t ask anything anymore and merely stared at her with an expression so solemn that it made her feel like a horrible person for hiding the truth from him before this.

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...
