The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 786

William went to put on his pajamas. Just as he fastened the last button, the phone rang again.

It was Yolanda again.

This time, William picked up the phone. “What’s up?”

Yolanda was laughing from the very beginning. “Nothing, I just felt a little bored and wanted to chat with you.”

William gave a noncommittal grunt, after which Yolanda pondered for a while before saying, “I actually went to the Constance Residence today.”

Sitting on his bed, he replied, “I heard.”

Yolanda gave a rational reason. She said, “You took care of me for a long time when I was injured, so I thought that I should visit and show my appreciation.”

After brief contemplation, William replied, “No, you don’t need to be so polite.”

Yolanda’s tone was still cheerful. “I saw Matilda and Sophia over there. That surprised me.”

The truth was that she was trying to sound him out. William naturally understood her underlying intention, but he was a placid man and wasn’t concerned about it. Hence, he simply went along with it and answered, “Yeah, the two of them will be staying here in the future.”

Upon hearing his reply, she uttered, “I suppose that’s for the best. Sophia is pregnant, so she’ll get better care there.” She chuckled and continued, “It’s normal. Definitely normal.”

Her self-comforting tone sounded somewhat reluctant.

With his brows pulled together, he sighed and said, “Yolanda, we haven’t kept in contact for so many years. But we know each other quite well, and I’ve always seen you as a good friend of mine. So, I sincerely wish for you to live a good life, and I wouldn’t like to drag you along.”

Suddenly, Yolanda fell silent on the other end of the phone.

Do I like her? I suppose so, right? No matter how bad Matilda was, I couldn’t deny that we have feelings for each other after nearly three decades of married life.
