Chapter 845


    Matilda agreed and added, “I’ll give you a call soon.” After that, she hung up the call, while William put


    away his phone, staring at the residence’s front gate with a smile.


    In the meantime, Matilda took longer than usual to dress herself up. In the end, she picked a long dress


    with a in color and tied up her hair, looking especially elegant. Once she was done, she immediately


    gave William a call and told him her location.


    William said, “Alright. I just happen to be somece nearby. I’ll head there right now.” After driving


    around the area for a bit, he pulled up outside the Flintstone Residence for Matilda to get into his car.


    As soon as he started the engine, Matilda asked, “Where are we going?”


    In fact, William had already figured out where they should go while waiting for Matilda. “You’ll know


    when you get there.”


    To that, Matilda responded with silence while typing a reply to Sophia’s message. Being a busybody,


    Sophia was curious to know whether William had made his move, so she texted Matilda to find out


    about it. In fact, the message had been received back when Matilda was still at home, but she couldn’t


    find an opportunity to reply. Besides, Old Mrs. Flintstone was unhappy when Matilda told her that she


    needed to go out, instantly showing her daughter a long face.


    In the end, Richard defused the situation, saying that he didn’t mind that. After all, he understood


    Matilda’s situation to settle an urgent matter, so he patiently put an end to the conflict. While she wasn’t


    sure whether Richard sensed anything wrong, she was certain that Old Mrs. Flintstone had smelled a


    rat. Mom may be old, but she is shrewd. I bet she probably knows something fishy is going on when


    she saw me excusing myself to answer the call. At the thought of that, Matilda couldn’t help but feel


    intimidated by her mother’s imminent wrath.


    As a matter of fact, her mother was fed up with her, especially the time when she stayed in the


    Constance Residence. Besides, she also used Matilda of being too impulsive as thetter only had


    herself to me for the dilemma shended herself in. At the thought of that, Matilda suddenly


    understood why Old Mrs. Flintstone was so angry with her as she was able to recognize her


    recklessness atst. Nheless, Matilda couldn’t bring herself to turn down William, just like how the


    man was unable to turn his back on her back then, despite her unreasonable demands. Still, she could


    finally heave a sigh of relief after getting away from Richard. When she thought of the situation earlier,


    she was reminded of the intense awkwardness she felt when Richard was around.


    When John was ready to leave for lunch break, he swung by William’s office to check on him, only to


    realize that he wasn’t back. Besides that, he noticed the documents on his desk, and one of them was


    left open. Upon noticing that, he reckoned his father must have left when he was going through the


    papers halfway. After staring at that document for a moment, he left his office and hit the road, making


    his way back to the Constance Residence.


    As soon as he got out of his car, John headed to the car park, where he saw no signs of William’s


    car. It looks like he is still out there. I guess it’s not hard to figure out what is keeping him upied for


    so long. Knowing where William had gone, John walked away and headed to the house when he ran


    into his Aunt Jennifer, who happened to being out of the garden.


    Noticing her elegant outfit, John deduced that she was going somewhere. When she caught sight of


    John, she was surprised too, but soon, she chuckled and said, “Oh, John. It looks like you’re getting


    closer and closer with Sophia. Look at you,ing all the way back here just to check on Sophia


    during lunch break.”


    After greeting her, John didn’t say anything much, to which the woman responded with a grunt. “I’m not


    trying to nag, John, but you and Sophia need to get remarried. Without marriage to bind you both,


    anything could happen.”


    John pouted and said, “Well, the way I see it, marriage is not as important as having a child. That piece


    of certificate won’t make a difference if the worst case scenario happens, but things will be different if


    we have a child.”


    Lady Jennifer stared at John and chuckled. “Haha. How open-minded you are!”
