She looked like a completely different person, like she was a healthier and younger version of herself. Ignoring John’s reaction, she went to put her shopping bags on the coffee table. Obviously, they went to the mall and got a lot of snacks. Matilda picked a couple and handed it to Sophia and Ms. Cannon. “Here. I think these are fine.”
John smiled. “I tried to call you ladies.”
Matilda grunted. “Really? I didn’t hear it.”
John didn’t mind her remark. “So you ladies had dinner? What did you have?”
Ms. Cannon answered, “Barbecue. It was delicious.”
John nodded at them. “I’ll get delivery then.” Then, he took his phone out and told Matilda, “You look great today. A lot better than how you used to be.”
Matilda was caught by surprise, and she was going to smile, but she stopped herself in time. “I’ve always looked good,” she huffed.
John looked at Matilda and Sophia before turning to Ms. Cannon. However, Ms. Cannon went to the kitchen and loaded the fridge with the things they bought, and she didn’t look at him. Thus, John looked away and called for his delivery before looking at Sophia. She didn’t even look at him after coming back, and her expression was gloomy all the while. Since he was sitting on the sofa, she went to the hanging chair with her pack of snacks in hand.
A short while later, John asked, “Where did you ladies go? The mall?” Nobody answered, but John expected this, so he didn’t feel awkward. All he did was smile and keep silent after that.
Sophia had some snacks before going upstairs, and after she was gone, John hurriedly asked Matilda. “What happened? What did you guys talk about?”

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...
