The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 668

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.

At this point, Matilda came out of the dining room and stood at the living room doorway. “He went upstairs in anger? Aren’t you going to coax him?”

Rolling her eyes at her, Sophia said, “You have the cheeks to show up now when I was so terrified earlier. What are you doing here now?”

Matilda hissed, “Can’t you tell that I was giving you guys some privacy earlier so that you can talk it out properly?”

Ignoring her, Sophia merely licked her lips and said, “Let’s eat now. I’m hungry.”

Matilda’s face twitched. “You still have the appetite for food? You’re amazing.”

Of course, I do, she thought silently. Earlier, she had taken in the smell of the food and had been longing for it for quite some time, so she was definitely in the mood to eat now.
