The Returning Ex

Chapter 953

Seeing as Matilda was blushing, Sophia put on a smile and rested her palms on John’s shoulders. “Alright. Stop teasing them. Please be careful on the road. I’m exhausted, so I’ll take a rest with John now.”

John nodded at his parents and followed Sophia upstairs.

When they returned to their bedroom, Sophia started chuckling. “Your parents have fallen in love again at such a mature age.”

Walking over, John pulled her into his embrace. “I also thought I would only be able to make you fall in love with me at an old age. I had done all I could to win your heart. If you never agreed to get together with me again, I really wouldn’t know what to do next.”

Sophia snorted. “What do you mean you wouldn’t know what to do next? You have many fallback girls anyway. Just give Isabelle a call, and she’ll come over immediately.”

At the mention of Isabelle, John felt helpless.

Hugging Sophia, he said in a sweet voice, “Don’t mention her all the time. I really have nothing to do with her. She’s not as good-looking and mild-tempered as you are. I’m not blind, so why would I love her?”

Sophia chuckled and clapped his hand. “As if I’d believe your sweet words!”

Leaning close to her, John said in a masculine voice, “But you like to hear it, don’t you? As long as you like it, I’ll keep being the honey to your ears.”

After Sophia stared at him for a while, her lips curved into a gentle and bashful smile. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

John hadn’t seen her smile like this for a long time. Moved, he cupped her face and kissed her lips.

Strictly speaking, it was their wedding night. Things started getting out of control since the kiss happened. After a romantic bath, John carried Sophia up and placed her on the bed as they continued making out.

Since Sophia was pregnant, John had to be extra careful. After he came, they lay down on the bed together.

Panting, Sophia felt that she was taxed out. They hadn’t had such an intimate touch for a long time. Moreover, with a baby in her stomach, she was pretty frail currently.

Then, John pulled her into his embrace and gently kissed her sweaty forehead. There were many things that he wanted to tell her. He wanted to say sorry, and he loved her, but he felt that no words could ever describe his true feelings for her.

When Sophia managed to regain some energy, she hugged him back and said, “John, this is the last chance for you. If you betray me, I will never forgive you again.”

Patting her back, John said in a tender and resolute voice, “I will never betray you.” He had learned his lesson.

While Sophia was in a dazed state, John got out of the bed and put on his clothes. Then, he picked up a hairdryer and helped her blow-dry her hair. Following that, he took out Sophia’s pajamas from the wardrobe and helped her get dressed. Eventually, he covered her with a quilt and said, “Have a rest. I need to handle something.”

At this moment, Sophia had dozed off. After waiting for a bit, John stepped out of the bedroom and entered the study.

After that, he fished out his phone and saw that his subordinate had sent him a message. Standing by the window, he tapped on the message and read it, then he snorted.

Usually, people who dared to commit a crime were intelligent. John had been wondering why the transaction had been busted, but no illegal goods were found at the scene. So this is what happened.

Although Elder Mr. Bailey was old, he hadn’t become senile. He had come up with a clever way to make the transaction happen without getting caught.
