The Returning Ex

Considering that Yolanda had made up her mind and made it all the way here, Matilda wasn’t confident in herself at all now that she had to go against the other woman.

Standing at the yard outside, Matilda gazed into the house, wherein John and Sophia were watching television in the living room. Sophia was seen roaring with laughter, and she sounded even louder than the television, while John gazed gently at Sophia with a warm smile on his face.

At that sight, Matilda stopped abruptly and took in this scene.

If she had treated Sophia better, Sophia and John would probably still end up like this. Also, William and herself might not have ended up divorced, and obviously, there wouldn’t be anyone else who would compete against her for William.

A while later, Matilda entered the house and looked at the both of them. “It’s late. Aren’t you both going upstairs to rest?”

The moment Sophia saw that Matilda was back, she immediately turned toward her. “Where were you? We thought of going out to look for you.”

Shrugging, Matilda said, “Nowhere. I was just walking about. The streets get quite busy during the night. ”

Hearing that, Sophia looked out the window, but obviously, she didn’t see anything special.

With a grunt, Sophia stood up. “Anyway, those don’t interest me. Besides, I’m not a fan of crowded places, so I’m better off staying at home.”

“Once this is settled, you can go out as you please,” John said as he rose up from his seat too.
