William put down his fork and knife to fumble around in his pocket.
Beside him, Sophia blinked and inched closer to whisper into John’s ear. “Could your dad have bought a diamond ring to propose?”
John stared at William’s action and smiled. “I guess so.”
On the other hand, Logan’s face was twitching at the sight of the progression of events. I am too thoughtless. I shouldn’t have come for dinner! Not only was he mocked by Sophia, he was forced to watch the lovey-dovey scenes of the two couples. What did I do to deserve this?
Indeed, William took out a brocade box from his pocket. Anyone could tell that it was a ring box with one look.
Matilda was shocked at the sight of it. At this age, she had not expected to be presented with a ceremony like this.
The two of them could have discussed the remarriage between themselves in private, and that would have been good enough for her. Proposals and diamond rings were not part of her expectations.
Under everyone’s expectant eyes, William found it hard to go down on one knee to propose. Thus, he could only open the box on the table, push it over to Matilda, and stare at her.
His question was simple too. “Let’s remarry, okay?”
Logan instantly lifted his hands to shield his face.
On the other hand, Matilda’s face was blushing from the proposal. Without any fuss, she took the diamond ring and put it onto her finger.
Frankly speaking, she had a lot of diamond rings, but they were all left behind at Constance Residence after the divorce. She bought most of the rings for herself and William had only given her one ring at the start of their marriage.

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...
