The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 943

Stunned to hear her son’s voice, Matilda turned to John and asked, “How did you reach home so quickly? Did you cross any red lights?”

Not interested in discussing how he got home in a short period of time, John placed his hands on the back of the couch and said, “If I knew you’re here, I would have asked Dad to come home as well.”

With her eyes still fixed on the screen, Sophia said, “It’s fine. Your mom called Master William just now. He said that he’s not coming back in the afternoon because he’s busy, but he’ll return home in the evening.”

Smiling faintly, Matilda never uttered a word.

Standing behind the couch, John ran his fingers through Sophia’s hair. Seeing as she never responded to him, he stretched out his hand to pinch her face.

Suppressing her urge to laugh, Sophia remained silent.

Unable to take it anymore, John leaned close to her and said, “I’ll go upstairs to get changed now. Are you coming with me?”

Trying to make herself sound calm, Sophia replied, “No. Why should I go with you?”

After a pause, John went on to say, “Aren’t we going out later? Of course we’ll have to get changed.”

Bursting into laughter, Sophia turned around to eye him. “We’re going to have lunch soon. After that, we’ll go.”

Sophia didn’t try to change the topic, implying that John didn’t misunderstand their conversation over the phone. Smiling, he circled around the couch and took a seat beside her. “Alright. We’ll go after lunch.”

Not understanding what they were talking about, Matilda turned to them. “Why are you going out later? As a pregnant lady, Sophia should stay at home.”

Before Sophia could speak, John hurriedly said, “We’re going to the Civil Affairs Bureau later.”

What is there to look around the Civil Affairs Bureau? Looking at her son from the corner of her eye, Matilda said, “Congratulations, my son. Your wish has come true.”
