Virginia said, “John is a man of few words, so he’d rather keep his problems to himself. But Sophia, I can see that he really cares about you. It’s hard for a woman to find a man she loves. Will you give him a chance?”
Sophia wasn’t sure if Virginia was persuading her because the latter had learned that she had no intention of remarrying John. However, after hearing what Virginia said, she seemed to recall a vague memory and was moved by it.
After Virginia left, they kept walking around the place as Sophia said, “It’s lunchtime now. I’ll ask whether John is coming home to have lunch.”
Covering her mouth, Matilda chuckled. “Alright. You’ll call him, and I’ll keep walking.” Upon finishing her words, she turned to leave.
After Sophia made the call, John hurriedly picked it up because he was surprised that she was calling him.
Hesitating, Sophia grunted. “Do you think the Civil Affairs Bureau will be open tomorrow?”
It’s Saturday tomorrow, so the Civil Affairs Bureau will be closed. Startled for a moment, John then replied, “The bureau’s employees don’t work on the weekends, so the place will not be open tomorrow.”
Sophia nodded. “Alright. Forget it.”
Coming to his senses, John quickly stopped her from hanging up the call. “Why are you asking about the Civil Affairs Bureau? Are you going there tomorrow? The employees there are not going to work tomorrow. If you’re free, we can go now.”
Without uttering a word, Sophia listened to him.
Seeing as she never replied to him, he rose from his chair and said, “I’m going home now. Get ready and wait for me.”
Still holding the phone, John was stupefied for a while and then burst out laughing. Oh God, are we going to register for marriage? I still can’t believe that she’s changed her mind!

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...
