Chapter 769


    Fabian chuckled quietly; his expression was slightly ironic. “What’s the use of regretting their actions


    now that things have reached this point?”


    Sophia pursed her lips, and she couldn’tment without knowing the whole picture.


    After a while, Fabian exhaled. “Let’s just go with the flow. I’m not hoping for much now.”


    Lowering her head, Sophia squeezed the ss. “How’s that girl now?”


    Fabian froze, then he looked at her. “She’s okay. After leaving me, she’s naturally having a good life.”


    The resentment in his tone was so palpable that Sophia had nothing to say. I’ve no idea what


    happened, so how am I supposed tofort him?


    As they ate, darkness gradually fell outside. Upon answering a call, Fabian seemed a little flustered


    and hurried away. Sophia and John slowly returned to the car, but Sophia didn’t want to go home. It


    was mainly because William was at home now, and she wanted to give him and Matilda more alone


    time. Thus, after some thought, she said, “Let’s just drive around for a while.”


    There was nowhere to go anyway, but John agreed, so he started the car and drove out. After driving


    around the city twice, Matilda called. Squeezing the phone, Sophia stared at it for a long time, and


    finally chose not to pick it up. I’ll just pretend I never saw that call. John nced at her, then he


    chuckled without saying a word.


    When Matilda saw that nobody answered her call, she realized what was going on and sighed


    silently. These two have really made things a little awkward by doing that! I’m already at this age now,


    yet I’m stuck in a game that only teenage lovers will y. Ugh, how embarrassing!


    William was also on the phone in the corridor at this time. At first, it was Old Mrs. Constance who had


    called and asked him why he was not home yet. He was afraid that Matilda would feel embarrassed, so


    he went to the corridor to answer the call. However, the door wasn’t closed fully, so Matilda could still


    hear what he said. Old Mrs. Constance didn’t press William about where he was staying the night.


    Instead, she only told him to drive carefully should he wish to go hometer.


    Then, William hung up the call before immediately answering another call. Matilda knew about this too.


    During the second call, he suppressed his volume, but Matilda could still hear what he said. It was


    probably Ynda on the phone. She was just making a random phone call to ask William what he was


    doing.


    Matilda didn’t really want to eavesdrop on them, mainly because she was afraid that she herself would


    feel distressed if she heard what they were chatting about, but as the voices drifted over, she couldn’t


    stop herself from listening.


    Fortunately, William was quite frank and told Ynda honestly about where he was. He also exined


    that Matilda had sustained an injury and he was here to take care of her.


    Pursing her lips, Matilday sideways on the bed facing the window. Her injury no longer hurt; it was in


    fact only a minor issue. Matilda was thinking about how to talk to William and have him go home. Back


    then, she used to be pretentious, but she was now different.


    After waiting for a while, William hung up the phone and came in. He sat down by the bed without a

    word. Matilda thought for a moment, then she turned over to sit up. “I’m actually alright now.”


    William replied, “I’m waiting for the kids toe back. I’ll worry if you’re here alone.”


    Matilda smiled at him. “Ms. Cannon is here with me, so I’m not alone.”


    William’s brows creased slightly. Usually, he didn’t frown much, so the expression was quite obvious.


    He looked at Matilda and asked, “Are you driving me away?”
