Female Novel
Chapter 1339
Agreeing with John’s statement, Isabelle nodded. “Yeah, I think so too. So, I came to ask my dad’sopinion this time as well. I think if they really have no feelings for each other anymore, it’s best to get adivorce. Although my mom is not that young anymore, she still has quite some time left, so she cantotally get together with someone better.”
Matilda laughed next to her. “You’re quite clear-minded, aren’t you? Nowadays, there are not manydaughters who are as sensible as you.”
Isabelle laughed too. “I’ll take it as a compliment then.”
Nodding, Matilda replied, “I’m indeed complimenting you.”
Isabelle didn’t stay in Sophia’s ward for too long. After all, she still had to see Elder Mr. Bailey and OldMr. Bailey.
John sent her off. After Isabelle left, Matilda went to Sophia’s side. “What did you two talk about justnow?” Sophia found a comfortable position and leaned back. “What? Are you afraid that I will say nastythings to her, or are you afraid that she came here to agitate me?”
Matilda rolled her eyes at her. “Look at her. When was she ever a match for you? She had alwaysgotten bulldozed by you. It’s just that I saw she came to see you with a gift, so it wouldn’t be nice foryou to snub her.”
Let out a long sigh, Sophia uttered, “It seems that you still like her.”
Matilda retorted, “You speak so well that I don’t think you’ve ever suffered under her at all.”
At that moment, the baby gurgled slightly next to them. He was probably feeling a little uncomfortable.Therefore, Matilda brought him to Sophia and lifted the quilt, allowing him to move his arms and legs.
The baby’s small hands and feet were not as big as Sophia’s palms, and they looked pink and tender.Sophia gently held the child’s foot, her heart melting into a puddle all at once.
Waving his little arms around, the baby twisted his head, turned to Sophia, and looked at her with large,blinking eyes. Seeing how adorable her son is, Sophia couldn’t hold back and leaned in to kiss himgently. The little baby opened his mouth and gurgled twice.
Matilda looked at Sophia. “How does it feel? Do you feel that all the suffering before is worth it?”
Sophia nodded. “I’ve never felt like this before. I can’t explain it clearly, but I especially want time tostop at this moment.”
Matilda stretched out a finger and touched the baby’s fingers. The baby naturally curled his fingersaround her finger. “This is maternal love. You’ll find that this feeling will become more and morenoticeable as the child grows up.” After saying this, Matilda paused and added, “You know what? I gotup last night and found John sitting next to the crib, just staring at the baby. You have no idea what thescene looked like. Let me tell you. It’s not just you who has changed. John has also changed a lot.”
Sophia did feel that too. Many times, when she had fallen asleep, John would also stare at her from theside. He didn’t speak nor move but would just stare at her with a gentle gaze and a smile between hiseyebrows. John used to treat her well, but he never did that.
So, with this child, both of them were slowly changing. Because it was a natural birth, Sophia did notstay in the hospital for too many days and was discharged after four days.
The confinement room at home had been prepared in advance, and the postnatal caregiver had beenhired. The nursery had also been set up, and all the preparations were completed.
After coming out of the hospital, John held the baby while Matilda helped Sophia button her coat.Sophia took the opportunity to turn her head and look at Matilda, then whispered to her, “Did Ian comeover?”
She had heard from Lola that Ian was there during Logan’s wedding. He even mentioned during thewedding that he would find some time to visit her in the hospital. But Sophia had never seen Ian, andso she felt a little strange.
When Matilda heard Sophia asking this question, she glanced at John first, and her voice was evensofter than Sophia’s as she replied, “He came, but you were asleep then.”
Sophia was taken aback, as she really didn’t know that. “Then why didn’t you guys wake me?”
Matilda smiled. “Look at the one holding the baby over there. He was there at the time. Do you thinkhe’ll let us wake you?” novelbin
Raising her eyes, Sophia glanced at John, who was walking in front of them, then pursed her mouthwithout saying a word.
