Female Novel
Chapter 928
Old Mrs. Constance was taken aback by Sophia’s words, and she stared at the younger womanwordlessly.
John came down after a while. Since it was still a little early, breakfast wasn’t ready yet, so he cameover and stood beside Sophia.
Stretching his arms, he looked for something to talk about. "Why did you get up so early today? Youusually sleep a lot nowadays.”
Sophia answered, "I went to bed a bit early yesterday."
John nodded. After a while, he continued, "Your pregnancy checkup is just round the corner, right? I'llgo with you."
Sophia didn't protest about this matter either, so she agreed with him.
Meanwhile, Old Mrs. Constance went back to sit in the living room. She found a magazine and startedto read it.
After standing beside Sophia for a while, John felt like he had reached an impasse with her. Thus, hethen turned around and went to the living room.
Old Mrs. Constance raised her eyes at him. "What's the matter? You hit a wall?"
John pursed his lips. "I don't know if I should be happy or upset now." novelbin
Sophia's attitude had really affected his mood. It wasn’t about her being happy or not. He just didn'tknow whether he should be happy about it.
Old Mrs. Constance beckoned toward John and had him sit down. Then, she lowered her voice andsaid to him, "What was yesterday about? Why did you ask Isabelle to come over?"
John pursed his mouth and spoke after a few seconds of silence. "I didn't ask her to come over. Ioriginally wanted to meet her outside. Perhaps she was too anxious about things, so she showed uphere herself.”
Old Mrs. Constance frowned. "You and Sophia haven’t remarried yet. If you do this now, does thatmean you are not planning to keep this wife and child anymore?"
"Why would I think that?” John's eyes widened. "Did Sophia say something to you?"
Old Mrs. Constance shook her head. "She didn't say anything, but women understand each other evenwithout saying anything. You really shouldn’t do such things. Right now, you can't outdo her at all. Sowhat are you getting at by doing such a thing?”
John felt distress coursing through his veins, which made him very uncomfortable, and that made himsigh. “I just wanted to prove something."
Old Mrs. Constance snorted. "You’re a smart man, yet how could you make such a stupid move at thistime? Even if you want to prove something, you can't use this approach. It will only make Sophia strayaway from you. It appears that you still don’t know enough about women."
John's expression was a little aggrieved. Then, he turned his head and glanced at Sophia, who was stillstanding in front of the main building.
Indeed, he could not outdo her. This woman has become more and more heartless. She wasn’t like thisbefore.
When it was time for breakfast, John diligently served Sophia. He put the vegetables into Sophia’sbowl, passed the milk to her and even cut the ham for her.
Sophia was a little disgusted by his behavior, so she turned to look at John and said, "If you havesomething to say, just say it to my face. You don't need to act all chivalrous here."
Sophia was a little disgusted by his behavior, so she turned to look at John and said, "If you havesomething to say, just say it to my face. You don't need to act all chivalrous here."
Taken aback for a moment, John quickly explained, "I have nothing to say. Why is this consideredchivalrous? I’m just trying to be nice to you."
Old Mrs. Constance almost wanted to cover her face in mortification. This stupid boy! She had alwaysfelt that John was rather thoughtless when it came to relationships, and she knew that one day hewould suffer. Now that he had really suffered, she thought that he would slowly learn something from it.But why does it seem that he’s just becoming more and more stupid instead?
After breakfast, John went to work again. Sophia wanted to go out for a walk, so the two of themwalked to the parking lot together, then Sophia turned to walk to the back garden by herself.
However, John was a step faster. He stepped up and embraced Sophia in his arms. Sophia's belly was
slightly bulging now, so John held her loosely.
He bowed his head and kissed her on the forehead before taking the initiative to admit his mistake. "Iwas wrong about what happened yesterday. I forgot to consider your feelings. Please don’t take it toheart. I promise I won't do it again."
