The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 69

 

 

 

Zack went to call Sophia when room service had delivered their meals.

 

However, the morning-after pill made her feel unwell.

It could have been a psychological thing, but she was feeling physically weak.

As such, she lay on her bed and weakly told him that she did not really want to eat.

Zack then walked over and opened the door. He panicked when he saw her lying there. “Are you feeling unwell?”

Sophia disagreed and said that she was merely feeling somewhat sleepy, which indeed she was as she was feeling quite exhausted.

Zack contemplated for a few seconds before coming over to the side of the bed. “You’ll still have to eat something. You can’t not eat anything.”

She then closed her eyes, not saying a word.

 

Feeling helpless, Zack was left with no options and said, “Take a nap then. Let me know later when you are hungry, and I’ll order some food for you.”

He then left and closed the door.

Meanwhile, John was sitting in a chair and did not look at Zack when he came out. “What’s wrong? Isn’t she coming out?”

 

Zack grunted. “She doesn’t look too well, but she said that she was just feeling tired.”

John grunted. “Perhaps that might be it.”

Without giving it any further thought, Zack then sat down and ate with John.

After dinner, they still had not heard from nor seen Sophia.

Feeling slightly uneasy, Zack looked toward her room and asked John, “Should we go and check on her? I feel like something’s not right with her.”

John gave it some thought before getting up from his seat and walking toward her room.

At this moment, Sophia was still lying in bed in the same posture; she was all curled up.

John stood at the door and called out to her but did not get a response.

As such, he walked in and stood next to the bed, and that was when he saw that Sophia’s face was somewhat red.

 

 

At this moment, her arms were around her shoulder. It was as if she was cold.

John produced an agonized frown, crouched down, and placed his hand on her forehead. It was hot.

 

Was it fever?

This immediately reminded John of the cold shower that they both had.

He was a man and had a lot of internal heat, so the cold shower probably did not affect him as much as it affected Sophia.

In addition, Sophia was also tormented by him in bed after that.

Feeling slightly annoyed, John bent over and carried her up in his arms.

He left the room while calling after Zack; Zack was frightened when he saw John come out of the room with Sophia in his arms. “What’s going on? Is it her gastric problem again?”

“No, it’s fever.” John continued, “Find us a ride to the hospital.”

Zack grunted and quickly ran outside.

In actuality, Sophia did have some consciousness right now as she opened her eyes and looked at John for a few seconds before closing them again.

When they were in the rental car, Sophia was in John’s arms.

Throughout the entire ride, Sophia was feeling drowsy. She felt that her head was hurting and her stomach was also feeling unwell.
