The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 729

The maximum effect wouldn’t happen if she stayed back. However, Matilda was still upset about Isabelle’s

behavior, but Sophia had already forgotten about that. When the doctor called her name, she quickly went into the

room.

Since she was in the first trimester, no heartbeat could be heard yet. She could only undergo the blood test and

ultrasound. The prescription came quickly, then Sophia and Matilda went to the blood test room for Sophia’s blood

test. When they went past the corner where Isabelle argued with Sophia, she and John were nowhere to be found.

“Where did they go?” Matilda asked.

Sophia smiled. “It’s fine. Not like they’re going to f*ck, so relax.”

Matilda looked at her. “You’re really straightforward, aren’t you?”

Sophia laughed. “We’re all adults here, so no need to hold back.”

They went to the blood sampling room, and after Sophia was done, they went to wait at the ultrasound room. That

was when Matilda called John, and he told her he would be coming soon, then he hung up. “I wonder what they’re

talking about.” Matilda looked curious. “Do they have to go outside? Is it something scandalous?”

Nevertheless, Sophia didn’t mind at all. She leaned back on her chair and stared at the number on the ultrasound

room’s screen. A long line was what she hated the most during a checkup. A short while later, John came back, but

he looked solemn.

Sophia looked at him. “Isabelle came with a group of people, didn’t she?”

John frowned. “Is that so? I didn’t notice.”

Sophia sighed. “Look into it. I don’t think she came here alone.”

John stared at her. “Okay,” he said. Then, the doctor came out to call Sophia, and John wanted to follow.

“No family members allowed,” the doctor quickly said.

John frowned. “Why?”

The doctor thought John was familiar, and his intern quickly said, “I think it’s Dr. Holt’s relative.”

Hearing that, the doctor quickly said, “Well, come in then. Miss Gwendolyn, lie down here and pull your shirt up.

John stood beside the ultrasound machine, but he knew nothing about it. After the doctor had applied some

couplant gel on Sophia’s belly, he started explaining everything in detail for John, like where the baby was, and

when they would be hearing heartbeats. As John stared at the black dot on the screen, his gaze turned gentle. So

that’s my child. It’s so… small. It doesn’t even have a shape yet. Then, he smiled.

Sophia turned to look at him after a while. She had never seen him so gentle before. Maybe this is his paternal

instinct. A few moments later, she smiled too.

Because of John’s relationship with Dr. Holt, this doctor did a meticulous checkup and explained all about the

growth of the fetus. Since Sophia couldn’t see the screen, she could only listen to him. When John came to hold her

hand, he saw the diamond ring once he stared down. It wasn’t a great match for her shirt, but John was happy

anyway.

When the doctor was done with the checkup, John came out with Sophia. It would take a while before the results

could be printed, so they sat down and waited.

Matilda asked about the results, though there was nothing to talk about. It was too early in the pregnancy, so there
