Next One Is a Babe Chapter 645

Matilda quickly urged John to get some rest, but he said with a smile, “It’s alright. Since I always used

to sit in the office, this is some much needed exercise, so I think it’s fine.”

Letting out a cry, Matilda tried to persuade him, “You should put yourself to better use by flipping

through and signing documents instead of working manual labor.” Her response caused Sophia to

glance at Matilda from the corner of her eye with a smirk.

Although Matilda didn’t like Sophia, she stayed the course of the night before leaving with John. Sophia

saw them off by the door. Despite their history, Sophia wasn’t going to fuss over it as Matilda was

behaving much better compared to before, so she wished Matilda a safe trip home. With a

sophisticated look on her face, Matilda was still trying to act tough. “Just go back in. This house

belongs to my son, so I don’t need you to send me off.”

Sophia obeyed her by turning to leave for the house, while Matilda got in the car and watched her close

the door behind her before questioning pointedly, “I don’t get it. Why do you even like someone like

her? Just look at how impartial she was to her elders. She didn’t even smile at me!”

John smiled in resignation before asking, “Why would she when you used to brawl with each other?”

Snorting, Matilda averted her gaze. “I just can’t bring myself to like her.”

John hummed in response. “Neither can she.”

By the next day, Sophia went to the hospital as it was time for a B-scan. She made an appointment last

night on the hospital’s website before going there early the next morning. Although she didn’t spend

much time waiting, it was still somewhat tormenting. She was panicking a little, and for a fraction of a

second, she considered giving John a call to get him to come. However, she was sensible enough to

push the idea down.

As soon as Sophia lay down on the bed, the doctor did a quick checkup by asking her a few questions.

After that, he applied some ultrasonic couplant gel before placing the transducer on her belly. The gel

was cool to the touch, which made Sophia shudder. On the other hand, the doctor was serious about

his task, so the checkup was efficient. Without saying much else, the doctor told her to wait for her

results outside.

Sophia left the room at a leisurely pace before retrieving her report from the machine. The report

merely stated that an embryo sac was found in her uterus, but Sophia was staring intently at those few

words. Although she didn’t understand what the graphs were indicating, she knew it showed the image

of her child. Tears welled up in her eyes after she stared at it for a while, as she realized she now had a

child and a family, so she was no longer alone.

Upon leaving the hospital, Sophia waited for a cab by the road, but before she saw one, another car

pulled over. When the car window was lowered, it was none other than Isabelle sitting in the car.

Sophia’s presence seemed to catch her off guard. “Miss Gwendolyn, why are you here? Are you

feeling unwell?”

Sophia observed her for a while before replying, “I’m here for a checkup.”

With a nod, Isabelle offered, “Where are you headed to? I can drive you there.”

“Nah, I can take a cab.” Due to their strained relationship, Sophia didn’t want to owe her any favors.

Other than letting out a hum, Isabelle didn’t say much else. “Alright, I will be leaving, then.”

In silence, Sophia watched her car drive off before hailing a cab with a stiff expression. Meanwhile,

Isabelle drove back to the hospital after traveling some distance. In the cab, Sophia sat back to take a

nap after telling the driver her shop’s address, so she didn’t see Isabelle going into the hospital. When

she arrived at her shop, there were quite a lot of customers. To her surprise, not only was Logan

present, but he was also helping out.
