The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 780

“Why else?” Sophia turned to face Matilda. “She’s interested in your ex-husband, so naturally, she wants to assimilate into the family slowly. The first step would be to form good relationships with those in the Constance Family.”

Learning about what Yolanda might be planning, Matilda frowned. “She really is bold enough to do that. If it were me, I can’t do it. It feels so embarrassing.”

Recalling what happened, Sophia laughed. “Old Mrs. Constance was defending you just now.”

Matilda nodded. After some thought, she also lay down. “I was truly surprised. I thought that she doesn’t like me.”

Faced with her statement, Sophia replied, “You were really unlikable. But now you’re alright. What were you thinking of all these years?”

Matilda didn’t know what she herself was thinking about, for she seemed to be rather muddled before.

Sophia was feeling sluggish, so she fell asleep after some murmuring. Lying there, Matilda was lost in thought for a while before her eyes closed as well.

The two of them slept well into the evening.

Old Mrs. Constance had awoken quite some time ago and was listening to music while drinking tea downstairs. Finally, she could not resist asking someone to go and call the two women to come down and have a chat with her. The servant came down after a while and reported, “They’re both asleep. I haven’t awakened them yet.”

The old lady laughed. “Okay, then let them sleep. Back then, when they were both at home, it had never been as peaceful as now.”

Back then, Matilda was always looking for a chance to make things difficult for Sophia. Chaos had descended upon the family time after time, so by comparison, although it was much quieter now, it was also much more peaceful than before.

After waiting for a while, John and William returned. Old Mrs. Constance thought to herself that now John came home after work and William didn’t work overtime anymore. She couldn’t help laughing when she saw them entering the house.

As soon as John and William entered, they glanced into the living room. Old Mrs. Constance spoke, “You don’t have to search around. They’re both sleeping upstairs.”
