However, John didn’t reply to that and left the cafe. Then, he walked across the road without stoppingand drove away.

On the other hand, John drove straight toward home after he left.
When he parked his car at the parking lot and got down, he spotted Sophia standing by the little trailheading toward the backyard with Dylan standing next to her.
The two of them looked like they were in the middle of a good conversation as John headed towardthem. “What are you guys talking about?”
Sophia exclaimed when she saw John, “You're back!” A smile bloomed on her face almost immediately.
At the same time, Dylan turned over to give John a look before commenting, “I recall you leaving thecompany earlier than I did though.”
John placed his arm on Sophia’s shoulder. “Oh, I had to go settle something while I was on my wayback.”
Then, Sophia hugged John’s waist before telling Dylan, “You should go back now. It's almost dinnertime anyway. Goodbye.”

Sophia chuckled. “You really know me.”

When Sophia heard him, she couldn't understand what he was trying to say at that moment.
Was he saying that he had a girlfriend, but they hadn't been discussing marriage yet? Or could it bethat the girl did exist, but they weren't in a relationship?
Sophia sighed. “I think you’d better ask Dylan this yourself when you see him. I'm not really sure whathis answer to me meant.”
“Hmm… So he didn't answer you directly?”
Sophia nodded. “He didn’t.”
John smiled at that and didn't say anything else.

When Old Mrs. Constance noticed that John was back, she immediately stood up and headed towardthe dining room as she remarked, “Looks like work’s over for the day.”
John replied, “There's still some left, but I listened to your advice and came home early.”
At that, Old Mrs. Constance turned around and grinned before she went on to say, “I'm just hoping thatthe baby inside Sophia can come out soon. Our house is just too empty and cold now.”
William and Matilda didn't bother coming home after their visit on the previous day. Well, they probablywanted to enjoy their life together anyway.
However, the contrast of how merry it was the previous day and how quiet it was this day made OldMrs. Constance feel uneasy.
So, John went on to caress Sophia's stomach. “It's happening soon. Look, Sophia's stomach hasalready gotten so big.”
Then, Old Mrs. Constance went and sat down on a seat before she took her chopsticks. “Ask about thegender of the baby the next time you guys go for the checkup so that I can start preparing the outfits.”
John nodded. “Alright. I'll remember to ask.”
Now that there were less people at the dining table, it was relatively quiet as they ate. Then, Old Mrs.Constance asked John how his work was.

Then, Sophia looked up to see John and asked after contemplating for a moment, “I heard that Huskywas admitted into the hospital previously. Is he alright now?”
John smiled at that. “He’s fine. That guy’s healing ability is monstrous and he is eating pretty well now.”
Previously, John’s man did call to inform him that besides not being able to move around freely, Huskywas still a glutton just like usual.
