Chapter 72

Zack came out after John rang the doorbell, and he looked like he had just gotten ready.

Then, Zack looked at Sophia, who was standing behind John. "Sophia Gwendolyn, are you feeling
better?"

Sophia grunted after staring at Zack for a good two seconds.

She was indeed a lot slower than usual.

Zack sighed. "You've suffered so much throughout this trip."

At this point, John recalled what he did to Sophia yesterday, and he felt that he was to be blamed for
what happened to her.

But in his defense, Sophia was under the influence of alcohol when she went into the bathroom and
stood below the showerhead, so he should not be blamed for causing her to take the cold shower.

He should only be blamed for what happened after that, and he reckoned that under those
circumstances, the average person would not be able to prevent that from happening.

After the three had entered the elevator, Sophia stood furthest away from the door and was silent the
whole time.

Her head was leaning on one side, and the marks on her neck were clearly visible.

John saw them but dared not look at them again; he thought he might have lost control yesterday.



Zack was not as attentive. He glanced at Sophia then looked at John before commenting in a deep
voice, "Sophia, you look a little upset."

John glanced at Sophia from the corner of his eyes.

Perhaps she was not feeling upset. It was just that she was still feeling unwell.

John jumped in, "Perhaps she just needs food."

After the three had arrived at the restaurant, Sophia was still silent the entire time, even while they
were ordering food.

However, the last time when they were here, Sophia was really aggressive and greedy.

In between placing the orders, Zack turned to Sophia. "Sophia, what would you like?"

Sophia blinked. "Anything."

John subtly let out a frown when he saw that.

Sophia's demeanor right now reminded him of what she was like before the divorce—quiet, obedient,
easy-going, and with no sense of existence.

All of a sudden, a sense of annoyance welled up within John that came out of nowhere, and that
confused and irritated him, but Zack was totally nonchalant. After ordering for John and Sophia, he
passed the menu back to the server before turning to Sophia. "We won't visit any place today. We'll just



get some rest before catching our early flight home tomorrow morning."

Sophia grunted and perhaps because she felt that her first reaction was somewhat perfunctory, she
nodded.

At the same time, John was trying to avoid looking at her as seeing her kept reminding him of what
happened in the past. It was like something that he could not break through, and those memories were
what he wanted to forget the most.

While they were eating, Sophia was still not talking, and John was just being habitually quiet. They
were completely silent during the entire meal.

Being in this situation, Zack sighed. "Miss Gwendolyn, now that you are sick, no one talks to me
anymore."

John responded blandly, "If you can transfer all the effort you put into chit-chatting to work, you wouldn't
be in this position today."

Zack puckered up his lips. "I do put in a lot of effort into work."

John did not respond to that.

Finally, as they finished the meal, John took out the antipyretic for Sophia. "Take some of these."

Sophia was extremely obedient and received it from him. She swallowed it without drinking any water.

Seeing this, Zack's eyes widened and John was stunned.



Feeling helpless, John passed the glass of water next to his hand to her. "You should take some water
with it."

Sophia gulped the entire glass of water without even giving John a look.

She was unusually obedient, and this worried Zack. "Did the fever damage her brain?

In the past, Sophia would definitely rebuke, but today she did not even have any response.

As such, John sighed and suggested in a rather impatient tone, "Let's go back."

After the three got back to the room, Sophia proceeded to sit on the bed and look outside the window.

Eventually, she was carried away.

At this point, Zack came up to John. "Did you tell her off yesterday? Look at how terrified she is of you."

John sneered and squinted at him.

Finally, her medication worked and she began to feel drowsy.

She then went to her bed, lay down, and closed her eyes.

Zack looked at her from behind. "Was she also like this in the past?"



However, she did not react this way when she was having gastric problems.

Was it because of the fever yesterday? Did it damage her brain?

John remained silent. Of course, he would not know what she was like in the past.

During that one year when the two were married, she rarely fell ill.

At least not that he knew of.
