With a bashful expression, Matilda replied to Old Mrs. Constance, “I told him to come back sometimes, but he said it was inconvenient to come back and forth.”
It’s just an excuse, Sophia thought. Tutting, she said, “You don’t have to come up with an excuse for him. We know that he’s reluctant to leave you.”
Rising from the couch, Old Mrs. Constance said, “I gave your mother a call just now. She said that she would be free tomorrow, so I’m going to visit her and have a talk with her.”
After a moment of hesitation, she continued, “Matilda, I don’t regret forcing you to divorce William. Perhaps it was because of the divorce that you had some free time to ponder on how to get along with him. After this incident, I’m sure the two of you have learned what it takes to maintain a happy marriage.”
Nodding, Matilda replied in a serious manner, “After the divorce, I was really resentful and didn’t know what to do with my life. Later on, I realized that I’d learned a lot during the process. Perhaps this was what I had to go through before I learned how to appreciate the one I loved.”
Her experience was similar to that of Sophia’s because she also believed that her divorce from John was a blessing in disguise.
After they were separated, they realized that they were most compatible with each other and that they still loved each other. If they were to spend the rest of their lives together, they had to learn how to get along so that their love would last longer.
Since Sophia still appeared to be unhappy, Matilda suggested that they should have a walk around the place. After taking a stroll for a while, they came across Virginia from the Third Constance Family.
Sophia rarely had the chance to talk to Virginia because the latter always kept a low profile in the mansion.
Virginia was a soft-spoken woman. Even during family gatherings, she would rarely say anything. Meanwhile, her husband, Samuel, had a disposition that was similar to hers; they both looked kind-hearted.

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...
