Chapter 686

She looked like a completely different person, like she was a healthier and younger version of herself.
Ignoring John’s reaction, she went to put her shopping bags on the coffee table. Obviously, they went
to the mall and got a lot of snacks. Matilda picked a couple and handed it to Sophia and Ms. Cannon.
“Here. I think these are fine.”

John smiled. “I tried to call you ladies.”

Matilda grunted. “Really? I didn’t hear it.”

John didn’t mind her remark. “So you ladies had dinner? What did you have?”

Ms. Cannon answered, “Barbecue. It was delicious.”

John nodded at them. “I’ll get delivery then.” Then, he took his phone out and told Matilda, “You look
great today. A lot better than how you used to be.”

Matilda was caught by surprise, and she was going to smile, but she stopped herself in time. “I’ve
always looked good,” she huffed.

John looked at Matilda and Sophia before turning to Ms. Cannon. However, Ms. Cannon went to the
kitchen and loaded the fridge with the things they bought, and she didn’t look at him. Thus, John looked
away and called for his delivery before looking at Sophia. She didn’t even look at him after coming
back, and her expression was gloomy all the while. Since he was sitting on the sofa, she went to the
hanging chair with her pack of snacks in hand.

A short while later, John asked, “Where did you ladies go? The mall?” Nobody answered, but John



expected this, so he didn’t feel awkward. All he did was smile and keep silent after that.

Sophia had some snacks before going upstairs, and after she was gone, John hurriedly asked Matilda.
“What happened? What did you guys talk about?”

Matilda pursed her lips, but she gave him a thumbs up. “Good job, son. Yeah, what you did was
scummy, but I have to say you did well.”

Matilda’s answer only confused him more, but she didn’t explain. After tidying up her items, she went
upstairs too.

John breathed deeply and went to the kitchen. At that moment, Ms. Cannon was putting the frozen
food in the freezer and cleaning the kitchen up. “Did you guys talk about something behind my back?”
John stared at Ms. Cannon.

Ms. Cannon didn’t look at him. “What? No. I don’t know anything at all.”

John smiled. “It’s fine. I know what’s going on.”

On the other hand, Matilda went to Sophia’s bedroom instead of her own. Sophia was sitting on her
bed, still fuming. Even though they had chatted all the way, it still failed to calm her down.

Matilda let out a sigh and sat beside her. “Calm down. You can’t change the past, and you aren’t going



to abort the baby because of this either, are you? If you can’t change it, why don’t you accept it?”

Sophia pouted. “He’s your son. Of course you’re helping him.”

Matilda’s eyes widened in shock. “Didn’t I defend you when we had dinner earlier? Did you forget about
it?”

Sophia looked at her through the corner of her eyes. “Look at what your son did. If it weren’t for this, he
might already be dating Isabelle right now.”

Matilda gasped. “Why are you mentioning her? Let’s not bring an outsider into this. I admit I was bad at
recognizing people for who they are, and I wanted John to date her because she comes from a good
family, so she can help his career, but now I know she’s just a scheming wench. I’m already helping
you, aren’t I? If you’re going to dwell on the past, then I’ll have to do the same.”
