Sophia smiled all the while. Even after what had happened, she wanted Ian to live a happy life.
Meanwhile, John looked at her but said nothing when she showed no change in emotion. There was scarcely any reason obsessing over that matter at this point. He didn’t think Sophia would go away now that she was pregnant.
Everyone stopped talking and dug in when lunch was served, and John’s mood became better at the thought of the baby. He even ordered some wine, much to the worry of some people there. “I’ll get someone to drive me back if I get too drunk,” he said.
Sophia frowned. “Why didn’t you call Zack over?”
To that, John smiled. “He doesn’t have time for us now that he’s dating. And I don’t think we should disturb him.”
Sophia knew Zack had someone he liked, but she never did ask him about the progress. Zack’s a reliable guy. He’s a prankster sometimes, but reliable nonetheless.
Being the party animal, Logan would drink whenever and wherever he liked, so he poured himself a glass the moment he took the wine. When he was about to give Sophia some, Matilda stopped him. “She can’t have that for now. Her condition forbids it.”
Logan froze. When he heard that, he looked at Sophia for a moment, confused, then he realized what Matilda meant. “True, true. Your belly’s acting up, so stay away from alcohol.”
Robin didn’t know Sophia was pregnant, so she huddled closer. “Are you still unwell?”
Sophia smiled. “A bit, but it’s fine.”
Robin gave her a worried look. “You have to take care of yourself. Gastric problems aren’t to be joked around. You don’t want it to worsen.”
Sophia merely responded with a nod as she smiled.
Logan’s eyes widened in shock at Matilda’s response. She’s getting less haughty now, huh? This is really unexpected.
Matilda ignored Logan’s reaction and only looked at John. Even though he was her son, she was disgusted at how he was acting. However, she was reminded of William. He’s just like his father. William acted the same way back then.

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...
