Matilda stiffened herself while she looked at John. “What’s there to explain? Just go and have your dinner now. What explanation are you expecting? You should be grateful that she already told you about it. Don’t ask for too much, young man.”
With knitted brows, John stared at her. Since when did Mom become this way?
Glaring at him, Matilda continued, “Hurry up and have your dinner. After that, bring Sophia out for a walk. She can’t be sitting too much now that she’s pregnant. Exercising appropriately is fine.” Then, she waved a hand at him as though to dismiss him.
John nearly broke into laughter from his incredulity. Since when did these two women become allies?
Before this, both of them would slip into an argument every time they met.
The whole time, Sophia kept her head lowered and ate her fruits. He hesitated for a second and decided to head into the dining room.
After he sat down, he heard Matilda’s voice from the living room, saying, “Are there any free rooms here? It’s not easy to get a cab at this late hour. I’ll stay the night here.”
John’s hand, which was holding a fork, paused mid-air. Then, Sophia could be heard saying, “Yeah, there are many rooms on the second floor. Take a look at them afterward and pick whichever you like. Ms. Cannon will help to clean it up for you.”
A few seconds passed, and the edges of his lips twitched upward into a smile. When he was finished with dinner, he went next to the couch and saw that Sophia was watching TV with Matilda after she had finished her fruits.
“Let’s go out for a walk,” he said in a solemn tone.

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...
