It was totally unnecessary. Old Mrs. Constance knew that Sophia had a clear head, and she was quick to pick up hints. So, Old Mrs. Constance said nothing more.
Also, Matilda stayed for lunch.
While eating, Sophia mentioned that she met Lady Jennifer, but neither of them said hello to each other.
Old Mrs. Constance shook her head helplessly. “I’m sure things will improve once Dylan finds a girlfriend and settles down. To be honest, there’s no need to be so hung up on these things. They’re too narrow-minded, to say the least.”
Sophia took a shrimp and peeled it. “I’m not hung up on it. Anyway, I’ve never had a good relationship with them, so I think it doesn’t matter how I behave toward them.”
Old Mrs. Constance thought about it and commented, “Actually, I used to think that you and Dylan are a very good match.”
Matilda quickly said, “Mom, don’t say that. If John hears this, he will be angry.”
Her address of Old Mrs. Constance as ‘Mom’ was so natural that both Sophia and Old Mrs. Constance didn’t pay much attention to it.
Old Mrs. Constance smiled to herself. “I’m only saying this in John’s absence. I definitely wouldn’t dare to say this if he’s here.” Then, Old Mrs. Constance continued, “You should be aware that at that time, John’s grandfather was seriously ill, and he was worried about Sophia. At first, he actually wanted to entrust Sophia to Dylan’s family. At that time, Dylan didn’t seem to be against the idea, but he went back and discussed it with his parents, who were unwilling to accept her. Dylan had always listened to his parents, so he came over to reject the suggestion. But when he rejected it, I could see that he was a bit hesitant.”
At this, Old Mrs. Constance smiled again. “To be honest, considering Dylan’s attitude back then, if John’s grandfather had insisted on him marrying Sophia, Dylan would probably agree to it. The boy is kind and compassionate.”

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...
