The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1195

Hmm, the netizens are quite upstanding this time. John scanned through the comments, feeling very much gratified

with the netizens’ reaction. At least, no one is blaming the victim and talking crap based on conjecture.

After a while, a servant approached with a fruit platter, probably having been ordered by Old Mrs. Constance to

bring out some food since they’d been out here for ages. When she walked up and saw that Sophia had dozed off,

she promptly lightened her steps. John then motioned to the table at the side with his eyes, whereupon she placed

the fruits there alongside various other snacks on the platter.

Sophia’s appetite these days was truly odd. For instance, she suddenly wanted to eat radish paste a few days ago.

He went to a few places and bought her different flavors, but she then complained that none was her ideal taste.

Thus, Old Mrs. Constance had someone go to a rural village to check whether anyone was making homemade

paste and purchase some back. The person whom she asked was quite reliable, for he truly found some

homemade paste in the village. However, when it was brought back, her craving had passed, and she hankered for

baked potatoes instead.

Supporting her head, John took a blanket from the side and placed it under her head as he slowly reclined her

against the chair. He had to go and buy dessert back for her, else her taste might change again when she woke up.

He wanted to give her everything she wanted to eat in the moment itself.

Ordering the servant to stay and keep an eye on Sophia, he then left. He drove toward Robin’s dessert shop.

The signage had already changed to a pink one, looking very cozy. The name of the shop had also changed to a

combination of Robin and Lincoln’s names. No matter what the changed name is, it’s much better than the name of

Sophia’s shop previously. Robin was startled upon seeing John. She hurriedly ushered him in and urged him to have

a seat. Then, she even peered outside. “Sophia didn’t come with you?” John murmured in affirmation. “She’s

sleeping at home. I just came out to buy her something back.” Upon hearing that, Robin understood his meaning at

once. “She’s craving for dessert, yes? Wait a moment. I’ll pack some for you right away.” She quickly grabbed a

plastic bag and placed several types of dessert in it for Sophia. As she did so, she noted, “A few of these are my

new creations recently, so I’ll let her try them.” Turning his head, John glanced around the small shop. She has

added a lot more things now. There’s an ice cream machine, and she’s even selling oden! He chuckled. “You’re

quite good at this. There’s a lot more variety now.” The corners of Robin’s mouth turned up.

“I’m just trying my hand. I like doing this, so I experiment when I’m free.” John merely nodded without saying

anything. When Robin was done packing everything into the bag, she came over and placed it on the table, but John

didn’t leave immediately. Lifting his eyes, he stared at her for a moment. “How’s life? Is he good to you?” Robin sat

down across from him. “Life’s good. He’s mild-tempered, so he even mollifies me when I get into a snit sometimes.

At least, we’ve never fought until now.” Humming thoughtfully, John murmured, “That’s good.” Robin fixed her gaze

on him, not quite able to put a name to this feeling that abruptly surged within her. A while later, she retracted her

gaze. Crossing her hands on the table, she kept her gaze on her fingers which she kept twiddling. “You know what,

John? You’re quite infatuating.” At first, John didn’t grasp her meaning, and he even laughed. “You’re joking! I’m

actually not that good.”
