The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 681

A short while later, Sophia was overcome by nausea. Her stomach was churning, presumably because of the food,

and she had an urge to belch. She stood up a moment later. “You guys carry on. I’ll be getting some fresh air

outside.”

Instantly, Matilda knew what was going on, so she stood up. “I’ll come with you.”

Robin got up after a moment as well. “Count me in. The guys can have their own fun while we have our girl talk.”

When they exited the room, Sophia trotted to the front door. She took a few deep breaths, but in the end, she

couldn’t hold it in and dry retched. Matilda patted her back and whispered, “It’ll be fine in a couple of months. The

second trimester will be better. You can go around and do your own stuff.”

Robin was about to help Sophia too, but she froze after hearing what Matilda had said. “Y-You’re pregnant, Sophia?”

Matilda answered for Sophia, “Yeah. It’s the first month, so she’s going through a lot.”

Robin stopped walking toward her, and she smiled a moment later. “Congratulations! I was wondering why Mr.

Constance was looking so happy, so this is why.”

Matilda kept patting Sophia’s back. “Yeah. He finally has a chance now.”

Tears were already streaming down Sophia’s face as she continued to retch. Then, she stood up and breathed in.

“So this is how it feels. I don’t like it.”

Matilda tutted. “You must have had it hard when you went back to your home alone.”

Sophia forced a smile. “I was fine. These symptoms weren’t as serious back then.”

Robin stared at the pale Sophia for a while and smiled. “Having a baby must be nice.”

Meanwhile, the men were having a long lunch, and Sophia was getting sleepy halfway through. Matilda felt

concerned for her, so she told John before taking Sophia home.

Since they were leaving, Robin wasn’t going to stay either. She looked at Lincoln, who was happily chatting with the

men. As he was already getting to know everyone, Robin said she was going back to the store. “You carry on here.”

She didn’t want to be a party pooper.

Backed by liquid courage, Lincoln held Robin boldly in front of everyone for the first time. “Have a safe trip. I’ll

come over in a minute.” He was smiling as he talked.

Robin looked back at him and took a furtive glance at John, but John didn’t look at her; he was chatting with Fabian.

Even though he had some wine, John still looked as sober as ever. A moment later, Robin turned back to Lincoln.

“I’ll be waiting then.”

Sophia and Matilda were waiting for her at the front door. When she saw them, she smiled at them and held

Sophia’s other arm. “Let’s go. And be careful, you.”

They sent Robin back to the store before going home. Before Robin got out of the car, she looked back at Sophia.

“Rest up, Sophia,” she said softly. “Leave everything here to me. I’ll handle everything; I promise.”

Sophia replied softly, “Of course. I’ve always trusted you. We’re friends, aren’t we?”

Robin froze for a second before she nodded. “Yes, we are.”

After she was gone, Sophia leaned back on her seat and closed her eyes. She was about to fall asleep when Matilda

chuckled. “You don’t even know what you’re dealing with,” she said mysteriously.
