Chapter 771
On the other side, John hung up the phone, looking a bit annoyed. He muttered to himself, “Why did he
call at such a critical moment? Ugh, now everything’s messed up.” Sophia sat in the passenger seat
next to him, which was slightly lowered. Her face was a little red.
Before the phone rang, John had already pressed himself on Sophia’s upper body and longingly left a
trail of kisses on her. Although he knew that he couldn’t go overboard, he was still annoyed that such a
passionate session was interrupted by a call.
Sophia rxed for a while before she was able to calm down. She closed her eyes, a little annoyed at
herself. Why was I so submissive? Why didn’t I put up a struggle? Now it appears as if I’ve epted
him.
John put down his phone and said with some frustration, “Well, let’s go back now. My father should be
going home soon.” Sophia adjusted her seat back to the normal position without a word.
John drove rather fast all the way back, and when they got home, they happened to see William
smoking at the door of the living room. Sophia lifted her head to see Matilda’s room was still illuminated
with lights. Matilda hasn’t slept yet, so what is William doing out here?
Sophia was a little dissatisfied with him. This man really doesn’t understand romance at all.
She briefly greeted him and went upstairs to Matilda’s room. Matilda was still sitting on the bed in a
trance.
Seeing her, Sophia went slowly over to the bed. “What’s going on between the two of you? I thought
we’d created an opportunity for you today so that your rtionship can improve by a single leap. Yet,
one of you is upstairs while the other is downstairs. You really disappoint me for not making the most of
this opportunity.”
Matilda did not look at Sophia. Instead, she just sat there staring at her own knees without saying
anything. Sophia thought for a while before moving over to her. “What’s wrong? What did he say that
made you unhappy?”
“Nothing,” Matilda murmured. Impatience rose in Sophia’s heart as she said, “Then what the hell is
going on? Why aren’t you speaking?”

It was a long while before Matilda lifted her head and looked at Sophia. “I told him that I wish to let you
go back to Constance Residence during your pregnancy because I feel that it’s unsafe here. T-Then…”
She pursed her mouth, looking a little embarrassed.
Sophia raised her eyebrows. “Then?”
Matilda yed with her hair in an effort to mask her mortification. “Then he asked me if I’ll go over too.”
Sophia thought about it and then grinned. “What do you mean? Does he want you to go over or not?”
Licking her lips, Matilda answered, “I’m not sure if it’s just wishful thinking, but I think he does want me
to go over.”
At this, Sophia pped her on the back. “That’s awesome then! If you go with me, I’ll go. Honestly, I
really don’t feel like going there, as I don’t like the people there very much. But if you go, I’ll consider
going too.” She paused for a few seconds before grinning again. “I’m sure you want to go though. Look
at your face! I can tell in an instant.”
Matilda tutted, then tried to make herself look more sensible. “Balderdash! I haven’t even thought about
it yet.”
Seeing Matilda’s reaction, Sophia couldn’t help but grin. “Carry on your act then.” She was a little
excited. Standing up, she did some light exercise andmented, “Very good, it seems that the
opportunity we created tonight is rewarding.”
Matilda thought for a while and then said to her, “Just now, Ynda gave him a call, but it wasn’t
anything that mattered. I think Ynda is very gutsy. She knows how to fight for what she wants.”
Sophia nodded. “Yeah. Although I’ve only met her once, I think that she’s a decisive andpetent
woman. She’ll get what she aims for without caring about what other people think.”
Matilda nodded as well. Ynda is really such a woman.
