The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1003

More rustling sounds at Isabelle’s side came over the phone again before Isabelle hung up the call without a word.

Squeezing the phone, Sophia contemplated for a long time, and then sent a message to John telling him her

guesses about Isabelle’s location. There was no reply from him though; it seemed that he was very busy.

After that, Sophia grabbed some clothes and went to the bathroom. Taking off her coat, she looked at her belly in

the mirror. It’s really amazing how my belly is protruding so obviously now.

Sophia touched her belly as she imagined a little child sleeping in there. It was something she didn’t dare to think

about before. Perhaps it was because she felt insecure at that time, so she didn’t dare to think about the future.

Now, however, when everything calmed down around her, she would occasionally think about what it would be like

for children to run and laugh around her in the future.

After looking in the mirror for a while, she took a shower before coming out to see John’s missed call on her phone.

She hurriedly called back, and John picked up this time. His tone sounded quite unruffled as he told her that he was

a little busy now and might be back quite late, so Sophia shouldn’t wait up for him.

However, John was also afraid that Sophia might feel distressed, so he emphasized that he would definitely be back

at night.

This man really has learned his lesson now, Sophia thought. Hence, she agreed and said, “Okay. I understand.

Please be careful out there. Also, have you seen the message I sent you? Isabelle answered the phone, but I think

someone is watching her by her side.”

John said that he had seen it before he added, “I’ve asked Zack to send someone to investigate. They should be

able to find her by today or tomorrow.”

However, John hadn’t thought about what to do next after finding the location where Isabelle was detained. As he

had said before, this was Isabelle’s own affair, so he really wasn’t in a position to intervene.

The phone call between Sophia and John did not last long. After hanging up the phone, Sophia lay on the bed and

turned on some peaceful music on her phone to help her sleep better.

It didn’t take long for her to fall asleep. This time, there was no burden in her heart, so she slept soundly. In the

middle of the night, Sophia heard the door of the room opening. She thought that John was coming in, so she rolled

over and opened her eyes to face the door. At the door, John took off his coat first, and then went straight to the

bathroom without turning on the lights. Then, he also closed the bathroom door. Next, he turned on a small light in

the bathroom, and there came the sound of running water as he took a bath. Sophia somehow felt that John was

behaving quite unusually when he came back now. Although there were no major issues with the series of actions

he had taken, she felt they were really different to what he would have done normally. Sophia waited in bed, but

John took quite a long time taking his bath. When he finally came out, Sophia sat up slowly and said without turning

on the lights, “What’s wrong? Did something happen out there?” Startled, John immediately replied, “Did I wake you

up? I’m fine. Why do you ask?” Sophia grunted in response, but she still felt something was wrong. “I feel that you

aren’t quite the same when you came back today.

” Smiling, John dried his hair, put on his clothes and came over to her. “There’s nothing different about me. I think

you’re just overthinking things.” The lights still remained off as John came over and lay down. After that, he hugged

Sophia, saying, “Sleep. It’s late.” Sophia nodded, but she couldn’t sleep for a while. Lying on the bed, she stared up

at the ceiling. After a while, John had fallen asleep peacefully. Sophia waited for a moment before getting up and

tiptoed to the bathroom as quietly as she could.
