The Returning Ex

Chapter 978

After chatting for a while, John wanted to head upstairs.

Sophia could tell that Logan followed John back home to discuss serious matters, so she waved at them and said, “Just go. Don’t mind me.”

When John heard that, he stood up and caressed her hair. “When I’m done with my stuff, I will spend some time with you.”

She nodded at him. “Alright. I know.”

When John went upstairs, Old Mrs. Constance happened to return from her stroll.

Just now, she saw John’s car returning to the residence. When she failed to see him around, she directed her gaze toward the second floor. “Did he go upstairs?”

Sophia nodded. “He has something to work on. He’ll stay upstairs and we can call him for dinner later.” Then, she added, “Logan is here as well.”

Upon hearing that, Old Mrs. Constance nodded. “That kid’s here. It will be very merry at dinner later.”

And she was right. Logan was a chatterbox who could not stop talking for a second.

Old Mrs. Constance took a seat on the sofa and let out a long sigh. “That kid from the Jefferson Family… I wonder what type of girl he would be with. He’s too lively! I previously even tried going through the profiles of all the girls of his age, and I could not find a match for him!”

Sophia blinked playfully at her. “Grandma, dating isn’t a black-and-white issue. What we think of as a bad match could be someone he prefers. It’s not something we can be sure of from the get go.”

Sophia was right indeed. When Old Mrs. Constance heard that. she looked at Sophia warmly. “Yes, just like you and John. No one had thought that John would be the one clinging onto you.” NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

At the start of their marriage, Sophia was clearly on the weaker side.

Everyone knew very well that even if the marriage led to true love, Sophia would have loved John more than the other way round.

After all, John was too arrogant and too rational. He simply wasn’t an emotional man.

However, the more everyone believed that to be the case, the sooner reality proved them wrong.

None of them had anticipated that John would be the person who was most reluctant to publicly announce his divorce.

Finally, he was the one who lowered himself and insisted on moving in with Sophia.

Over and over, he requested for a remarriage, even going as far as to impregnate her.

His pathetic image right now was a drastic shift from his arrogance and coldness in the past.

To sum it up, love wasn’t something that could be assessed rationally.

In the kitchen, William and Matilda were busy preparing dinner, but it sounded like they were fooling around because rounds of laughter could be heard.

Sophia stole a glance at the kitchen and saw Willlam’s smiling face through the glass panel at the kitchen.

Now, she could tell that he was truly happy because his eyes were lit up with joy.

Staring at the couple, she felt happy for Matilda. After some ups and downs, the man whom Matilda loved had picked her in the end.

It was by no means an easy journey for either of them. Matilda used to be a drama queen. Since William was still sticking around for her, it proved that they were each other’s true love.

After a while, Matilda and William were done with the dishes and they served the food with smiles.

Later, Sophia noticed that Matilda had sneaked her hand into William’s pocket to fish out his phone.

William didn’t mind it at all. He wiped his hands with a paper towel and headed over to join the group in the living room.

Then, Sophia stood up and went over to Matilda. The two of them stood at the kitchen’s entrance as Matilda checked William’s Facebook notifications.

Feeling curious, Sophia peeked over her shoulder and noticed that William had posted a new photo to his profile, which garnered a lot of likes and comments.

She stared at the photo for a moment before grinning knowingly. “You posted this purposely for Yolanda to see, didn’t you?”
