The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 80

 

 

 

Perhaps Sophia had heard it wrongly, but his words somewhat touched her.

 

At this point, she quickly turned away and looked outside the window, pursing her lips and refusing to say a word.

After putting Sophia and John’s suitcases in the trunk, Zack got in the passenger seat while Mrs. Constance and Isabelle were still standing next to their sedan.

Even though Isabelle looked fine, Mrs. Constance did not look too pleased.

Leaning on the car window, Sophia saw the reluctant look on Mrs. Constance’s face as she got in the car, and how hard she then slammed the car door.

The sight of this made Sophia laugh.

Their car took off first while Mrs. Constance’s car followed.

Throughout the car ride, no one was talking, and the car was heading toward the Constance Residence.

 

It was a familiar route for Sophia.

Looking at the view outside the windows on both sides of the car, Sophia felt rather despondent.

When she moved out of the Constance Residence, she thought that she would never return, but look at how quickly things changed.

 

The car kept on going until they entered the front yard of the Constance Residence, which was situated halfway up a hill; the surrounding area was extremely quiet.

As Old Mr. and Mrs. Constance both loved the countryside, there were many trees and plants around the Constance Residence.

Behind the Constance Residence was a bamboo forest. It was very well managed and it made the environment feel quiet and peaceful.

Sophia opened the door herself when Old Mrs. Constance was seen standing at the entrance of the main building and watching them while a maid stood next to her.

Sophia saw Old Mrs. Constance the moment she turned around.

During her time being married to John of just under a year, Old Mrs. Constance was impartial toward her.

She never gave her any trouble but neither did she ever protect her.

Hence, she felt the same toward Old Mrs. Constance. It was neither cold nor hot.

After Zack helped move their suitcases from the car, with the help of the maid, Old Mrs. Constance slowly walked up to them.

 

 

As all the members of the Constance Family were now at the office, this place seemed to be unusually quiet.

Old Mrs. Constance looked at Sophia and said rather calmly, “You’re here.”

 

Sophia grunted. “Old Mrs. Constance, good to see you.”

It did not take long for her to change the way she addressed her as she used to call her Grandma.

Old Mrs. Constance sighed and turned to Zack.

Since Zack was a frequent visitor, Old Mrs. Constance knew who he was.

She then commented, “You just got off the plane, didn’t you? Eat something before you go back.”

Zack gave Sophia a look and exhaled. He then conveniently accepted the invitation.

Now, the car that Mrs. Constance was in slowly pulled up, and Mrs. Constance seemed rather nervous as she got out of the car right after it stopped.

After that, she went to the back of the car and dragged Isabelle over when Isabelle had just stepped out of the car.

Mrs. Constance then walked up to John. “John, come in the house and eat something. We’ll talk when we eat. You must be tired.”

It was too obvious what Mrs. Constance was trying to do, and even Old Mrs. Constance could no longer take it.

Old Mrs. Constance then sighed, looking slightly stern. “Matilda.”

Mrs. Constance paused and turned to Old Mrs. Constance. She then pursed her lips and moved aside.
