Sophia wasn’t crying. Rather than feeling sad, she was just a little tired. Just when she thought she could live a happy life with John, her biological mother came to trouble her.
Before long, John came back into the car and stroked her face. Without Sophia having to ask, he said, “They’re leaving tomorrow, and they’ve promised to never harass you again. Don’t worry.”
Sophia grunted in response.
Knowing that it was useless for him to say anything at this point, as no one could console her except for herself, John simply heaved a sigh. “Let’s go home.”
When the car started moving, Sophia exhaled slowly and said, “From now on, I have no more relatives. Perhaps I should celebrate.”
John turned to her, who was gazing out the window with an indifferent expression, as though she wasn’t the one who said that just a moment ago. Then, he pulled her hand toward him and gripped it firmly. “You still have me.”
Sophia didn’t give him any response.
When they reached home, the sky had turned dark. After the car was parked in the garage, John helped Sophia get out of the car as they held hands and headed for the main building.
At that moment, William was smoking in the yard just outside the main building. Clueless about why they had gone out, he greeted them when he saw them. “You’re back.”
John grunted and kept walking toward the living room with Sophia. Just then, William said, “Your mom returned to her own home.”
Stopping in his tracks, John turned to look at his father, whose expression was uneasy. William said after a cough, “Well, your grandma told me that your mom had left.”
In disbelief, Sophia gazed at William, who was seen with a bashful expression at such a mature age.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
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...
