The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 723

That wasn’t too good of an explanation either.

Sophia frowned. “So you don’t like me because I was nice to you, but now that I don’t care about you, you think I’m

nice?” That was confusing for her. “Are you a masochist, John?”

John clicked his tongue. “Not exactly right.” Still, he didn’t know how to capture that feeling best. Since he couldn’t

word it well, John stopped thinking about it. “I used to be harsh to you, I know.” He looked at Sophia. “But I’ll make it

up to you. Give me a chance, Sophia.”

Then, he took the ring out of the box, and Sophia pulled her hand back quickly. John froze, and he pursed his lips.

“I’m not asking you to agree right away. I just need you to give me a chance. You can make your decision when

you’re ready, but at least give me a chance.”

He held her hand again. This time, Sophia clenched her fist, but she didn’t try to break free, which made John smile.

He opened her fist and put the ring on her finger.

Sophia didn’t look too happy about this. Of course, she wanted to say yes after John humbled himself in this

proposal, but she felt that something was missing. Yes, something’s still missing. Every time she remembered the

harsh treatment John gave her, a feeling of anger would rise up within her. She wanted payback for that.

On the other hand, John stood up slowly, delighted. He looked at her hand, and he smiled. “It’s the right size. Glad I

got it right.”

Sophia looked at the ring, and she said solemnly, “I’m not agreeing to your proposal. Not everything can be

smoothed over with an apology. I’m just giving you a chance.”

John hugged her. “That’s enough for me. I’m happy that you would give me a chance.”

A while later, she closed her eyes and sighed. She was having a hard time processing her emotions, then John left

after a short while. He had something to do.

She sat on the bed and took off the ring, then Sophia looked at it closely. There was something engraved on the

inner side of the ring.

She squinted at it and snorted. Childish. Her and John’s initials were engraved on it. This is something inexperienced

guys will do. Didn’t expect John to be as childish as they are.

It would be hard to go around with a ring with such a big diamond, so she went to put it back into the box before

going back to the bed.

Thanks to John, she didn’t even feel like sleeping now. She was fully awake, so she stared at the ceiling,

remembering all the things John did for her lately.

John was meticulous when it came to her, and he gave her all the care in the world. Everyone could see that. Even

Sophia was wondering what he was thinking. John’s change in attitude came off as bizarre for her. Before this, he

never was nice to her, but after she was pregnant, he started caring for her. Sophia took a deep breath. This is just

confusing.

Sophia turned around to stare at the window and thought about the checkup to calm down.
