Standing at the kitchen doorway, Matilda glanced at her, gave her a thumbs-up, and disappeared into the dining
room with the dinner. Sophia blinked and turned back to John, who was gazing at her intently. Suddenly, her heart
began to pound violently, and she took a deep breath. “There’s something I want to tell you, but I don’t know where
to begin.”
John nodded. “Just tell me. There’s nothing which can’t be said between us.”
Despite that, she blinked blankly at him, unsure of how to bring up the topic as he stared at her, feeling as though
he knew what was coming up next.
Seeing that she was quiet, he suggested, “Alright, then. I’ll ask the questions, and you’ll just answer yes or no.”
Immediately, she bobbed her head in agreement. “Okay, you can ask me.”
Lowering his eyes to her belly, he asked, “Previously when you were feeling unwell, it wasn’t because of gastric,
was it?”
“Yeah,” she answered with a guilty conscience. “It wasn’t because of gastric.”
As he stared at her, she lost the guts to look at him, and he breathed deeply. “Did your menstrual stop for a long
time?”
Actually, he wasn’t sure about her monthly cycle because they hadn’t lived together for a while. Still, he felt that
the sanitary napkins in her closet had remained untouched for some time now.

Slowly, she let out a sigh and nodded after a long pause. “For more than a month now.”
This time, John didn’t ask anything anymore and merely stared at her with an expression so solemn that it made
her feel like a horrible person for hiding the truth from him before this.
Guilt-ridden, Sophia left her mouth hanging for a long time, not knowing what else she could say as it seemed like
nothing could clear the situation regardless of what she said now. From the beginning, she hadn’t intended to tell
him this and even planned to leave with the child.
As John maintained his silence, she felt at a loss and wasn’t sure of what she should do, just like a primary school
kid who was punished. On the other side, Matilda slowly made her way over and stood in the living room, eyeing the
both of them cautiously.
From the corner of her eye, Sophia saw her and cast her a pleading look, as though she had seen her savior.
However, Matilda simply hesitated before turning around, leaving her in bewilderment. Indeed, I can’t depend on
anyone at all.
After considering it, she took a step closer to John. As her mind was really empty, she blurted, “Are you so mad that
you want to leave now? Look, your car is just right there.”
John shut his eyes, and she saw him gritting his teeth a few times before storming off. However, he went into the
house instead of getting into the car. He didn’t go into the dining room either, but straight upstairs. From
downstairs, Sophia could hear the loud bang of a door closing from upstairs.
Shrinking her neck, she knew that he was really, really mad this time.
Since he had never been this angry at her ever before, she didn’t know what she should do next.
At this point, Matilda came out of the dining room and stood at the living room doorway. “He went upstairs in
anger? Aren’t you going to coax him?”
Rolling her eyes at her, Sophia said, “You have the cheeks to show up now when I was so terrified earlier. What are
you doing here now?”
Matilda hissed, “Can’t you tell that I was giving you guys some privacy earlier so that you can talk it out properly?”
Ignoring her, Sophia merely licked her lips and said, “Let’s eat now. I’m hungry.”
Matilda’s face twitched. “You still have the appetite for food? You’re amazing.”
Of course, I do, she thought silently. Earlier, she had taken in the smell of the food and had been longing for it for
quite some time, so she was definitely in the mood to eat now.
