The Returning Ex

Chapter 123

After a while of waiting, her ride came.

Sophia went inside, and the driver smiled at her. “You live in a big villa.”

Sophia looked outside. “Just drive.” It’s big, but living in it isn’t easy.

Once the driver drove away, Old Mrs. Constance received news. She watched as Matilda made the call. John didn’t know what happened, so he asked her calmly, thinking this was just another one of her little skirmishes.

Worried John might scold her, Matilda stammered, much to Old Mrs. Constance’s fury. She snatched the phone away and told her Matilda fought with Sophia. Since she couldn’t provide the details over the phone, she told him Sophia had left.

Old Mrs. Constance sounded worried. “Before she left, Sophia said she wants to tell everyone you two are divorced, so she will have nothing to do with us anymore.”

John massaged his forehead. “I see.” Old Mrs. Constance wanted to say something else, but John hung up.

Matilda was worried. “What did John say? Did he say how he’ll settle this?”

Old Mrs. Constance glared at her, but she didn’t answer Matilda’s question. “This is all your fault.” Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Matilda shut up, for she had miscalculated this. She wanted to pretend she knew nothing, but the sight of Sophia angered her. I didn’t say anything offensive. It was just some grumbling. Why did she react so much?

Old Mrs. Constance thought about it and called her son. After telling him what happened, she reminded him to keep an eye on the media. “If anything happens, push it down. You can’t let the court of public

opinion have a free season on us. It will be a disaster.”

William didn’t know what happened, and he was surprised to hear it. “What happened? I thought we talked it through.”

Old Mrs. Constance sneered. “Ask your wife. She did it.”

Matilda blushed, and she teared up, for she didn’t expect this incident to escalate so much.

William sighed. “Fine. I’ll keep an eye out. We’ll talk later.”

On the other hand, Sophia went back to her house and deleted John’s fingerprint data from the account. Didn’t think I’d remember to do this. She went to the bathroom in her bedroom after that.

For some reason, she bathed once more, then after changing into new clothes, she lay on the bed and covered herself with her blanket.

She felt uneasy. As for sadness, she did feel that as well, but not that much. Sophia heard the conversation earlier, though she already knew that John never did love her. Even though she heard it and it struck a nerve, it didn’t really disturb her. Still, it did make her feel dejected.

He took advantage of her and dumped her. Now, she knew all he wanted was her body. This was disappointing, honestly. As for the reason she made a ruckus, one was because of what Matilda said, the other was to make the whole Constance Family suffer.

After ‘getting along’ with them over the past couple of days, the Constances should know she would say anything she wanted. Sophia wanted to make them nervous and on edge. Everyone looked down on me, so now I want them to fear me. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. I’m going to wallop all of them one day.

That idea lingered in her mind as she fell asleep. A long while later, a phone call woke her up. She turned around and saw that it was from John. Douchebag. She let the phone ring on, not taking or cutting it off.
