The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 949

Old Mrs. Constance nodded. “I guess we should just let them do whatever they want.” After a pause, she said, “I’ll

talk to your late father about it later so that he’ll be as happy as us in heaven.”

At the mention of Old Mr. Constance, the others fell silent.

Startled, Sophia thought about her own grandfather, who was most fond of kids. When they lived in the village, he

would help take care of other kids. If he were still alive, he would be elated that Sophia now had a child of her own.

At the thought of this, Sophia became disheartened until dinner was ready. Perhaps she shouldn’t have thought of

the past because her mood was affected.

After everyone was seated around the dining table, Old Mrs. Constance thanked Sophia in delight as this gathering

was made possible because of her.

Holding Sophia’s hand firmly, John giggled. It was apparent to everyone else that he was overjoyed.

Although Sophia had a long sleep, she still felt pretty tired. During the meal, all of them were having a casual chat,

but Sophia never said anything. Worried, John turned to her and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

Sophia shook her head. “Maybe I just didn’t rest well

I still feel tired.” Stroking her head, John suggested, “When the dinner is over, we’ll have a stroll together.” Sophia

grunted. “Okay.” After shooting them a glance, Dylan hurriedly retracted his gaze. Without saying anything, Sophia

finished up her food pretty quickly. Seeing this, John hurried up and gobbled down his food as well. When they were

done with their meals, they rose from the chairs. While Sophia remained silent, John apologized to the others and

said that they had to take a walk because Sophia felt a little uncomfortable. All of them understood that Sophia

needed special care currently. Old Mrs. Constance said, “Alright. Go for a walk as it is good for her health. Since

we’re a family, you don’t have to apologize to us. After the stroll, just go back to your room and take a rest. You

don’t have to come back here to keep us company. Your health is the most important thing now. Please take good

care of yourself.” Since his grandmother had said so, John held Sophia’s hand and stepped out of the dining hall.

Without all the noise, Sophia felt much better as they walked toward the backyard.

After giving it a thought, John asked, “Do you want to have a walk around the bamboo forest?” Looking in the

direction of the bamboo forest, Sophia replied, “Okay.” It seems that she isn’t interested in anything. Holding her

hand, John sighed and stepped out of the backyard. Since Sophia’s bulge was pretty big now, John had to be extra

attentive to her. Nevertheless, they never walked up to the crest of the hill as they stopped halfway. Afraid that

Sophia would exhaust herself, John kept patting her back. “Alright. Let’s stop here. We shouldn’t go up.” In fact, they

wouldn’t see more of the view on the hilltop, so it wasn’t necessary to keep going up. Halfway up the hill, they

gazed at the mansion. The street lamps had lit up, and the night view was magnificent. Feeling cold because of the

breeze, Sophia thought for a bit and snuggled up to John. She was rarely so spontaneous in getting close to him, so

John was elated and wrapped his arms around her. Kissing her cheek, he asked, “Do you feel cold?” Without

dodging it, Sophia kissed his lips and smirked. “I don’t feel cold now.” .
