The Returning Ex

The Returning Ex Chapter 999

Matilda took the opportunity to say, “Yeah. I looked at the calendar earlier, and I think tomorrow is good.”

William didn’t even hesitate before nodding. “Then I’ll find some time tomorrow for us to go over and sort out the legal stuff. We’ll prepare the documents tonight.”

Sophia almost laughed aloud beside him. Matilda is really anxious indeed.

Old Mrs. Constance thought about it and said, “Then both of you go and sort out the legalities tomorrow. When you come back in the evening, call your two younger brothers and their families over to have a celebratory meal together. We celebrated just a few days ago over John’s matter. Now, it’s your turn. I wonder if they’ll be shocked.”

William smiled. “It doesn’t matter if they don’t join us for the celebratory dinner. In any case, the two of us don’t really care.”

Indeed, Matilda didn’t care about these people. All she cared about now was just Yolanda Bloom.

There was still some time after lunch, so everyone sat while chatting in the living room.

Sophia suddenly felt like her belly had moved a little. Frowning, she stroked it with her hand, but nothing else happened. As she wasn’t that far along in her pregnancy yet, it was likely not a fetal movement and simply some gas. However, it was a very strange yet novel feeling to her.

John suddenly reached out and stroked Sophia’s belly.

At that, Sophia smiled at once. How great would it be if there aren’t so many frustrating issues happening around us?

The TV was turned on. While the others were chatting. Sophia stared at the TV, but her mind was occupied by other matters. By the time the child is born, the Bailey Family’s matters should have been resolved, right?

After sitting in a daze for a while, Sophia’s phone, which was placed next to her, vibrated with an incoming message. She didn’t think much about it as she picked it up and glanced at it, but much to her surprise, it was a message from Isabelle.

Isabelle had always called Sophia if she had something to say. Perhaps she was afraid that Sophia would not answer, so she had sent a message instead.

The message contained two words. ‘Be careful.’

Staring at these two words for a moment, Sophia then handed the phone to John.

At that time, John was still chatting with William and Matilda. William was saying that he had looked up the family book and had chosen a few names for John’s child, but he had not decided on it yet and wanted John and Sophia to decide on the best one. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

After talking to William, John picked up Sophia’s phone. When he saw the message, his expression turned serious.

Surprised at the sudden change, William looked at him. “What’s the matter?”

John smiled, trying to make his expression look calm. “Nothing.”

Pursing his lips, the smile on his face dimmed a little as his eyes turned frosty.

When John went back to work in the afternoon, he called Isabelle, but she didn’t answer her phone. Surprised, he called Isabelle twice more in a row, but there was still no answer over there.

The call went through, but no one answered the phone. This rarely happened before.

John hesitated for a moment and thought that Isabelle was probably just busy right now. Since he couldn’t reach her now, he planned to call her again later. Hence, he simply put this matter away temporarily.

There were a lot of things going on in the company, so John was busy all afternoon. When it was almost evening, he suddenly remembered Isabelle, so he quickly took out his phone and called her again. It was the same as before; no one answered the call.

Only then did John feel that something was wrong.

Isabelle said that she was leaving before, but according to her character, even if she really was leaving, she would definitely call him first to notify him. Thus, something was very wrong for her to suddenly disappear off the face of the earth while her phone was still contactable.
