Chapter 833


    Meanwhile, Logan was awake. He was standing by the window in his room as he was trying hard to


    live down the humiliation of being roughed up by a woman. Because of that, he couldn’t keep his eyes


    shut and sleep. Instead, he smoked one cigarette after another until he started to feel a little dizzy.


    Then, he opened up the window while standing there, wanting to think out loud. However, nothing


    came out of his mouth because his mind was nk.


    Soon, a waiter approached Logan to inform him about the arrival of Matilda and Sophia. In response,


    Logan replied, “I see. Just tell them that I’m asleep. Sophia knows her way around here.” Feeling


    moody, Logan was hoping that someone could lend him a pair of ears to confide in, but he


    subsequently had a change of heart as he only wished to keep to himself.


    After the waiter headed outside to receive Sophia and Matilda, Logan went to his bed andy in it. At


    this moment, he received a message on his phone, which he chose to ignore when it rang once earlier.


    Now that he was lying in his bed, he finally decided to reach for his phone to check out his message. It


    turned out that it was a message from one of Logan’s subordinates when he couldn’t be reached via


    calls.


    Upon skimming through the message, Logan angrily swore to himself. “Darn it, b*tches! Who the hell


    gives two hoots about her?!” Then, he tossed his phone aside and turned around in bed, wrapping


    himself in his nket as he closed his eyes. There is nothing sleeping can’t solve. After all, that’s the


    only moment that I can be free from all this disturbance.


    In the meantime, Sophia and Matilda came to a private lounge, where they were served with fruits and


    tea before the waiter excused himself. After that, Sophia held Matilda’s arm and said, “Alright, so what


    happened back there?”


    However, Matilda scratched her head in confusion and replied, “I’m probably as baffled as you are right


    now. In fact, I don’t even know where to start either.”


    Sophia said with a smile, “Come on! You’re the one who went through that. How can you not know


    anything?”


    Indeed, Matilda had no idea where to begin as everything seemed normal when she ran into William


    back at the restaurant. Nheless, she couldn’t help but have a hunch that their coincidental


    encounter was a key to something important, even though she didn’t know what that might be.


    Noticing Matilda’s expression, Sophia decided not to press on further with her questions as she could


    tell that the former was still in shock from what had just happened. The next moment, however, Sophia


    crossed her legs while sitting in the chair. “Actually, the way I see it, it wasn’t much of a big deal. You


    only just bumped into your ex-husband while dining with a friend. What’s wrong with that? Furthermore,


    what exactly could your ex-husband do anyway? It’s not like you both are nning to rekindle old


    mes, so he really doesn’t have a reason to be mad at you.”


    After hearing Sophia’s point, Matilda agreed with her and responded with an affirmative grunt. “You’re


    right. What could William do even if Richard and I were more than just friends? Who is he to be angry


    about that?”


    “Yeah, exactly.” Sophia gazed at Matilda and added, “Show him your backbone. You’re to me for


    how things ended up for you and your ex-husband, but you’re a woman after all, so that makes it okay


    for you to be reserved.”


    As she said that, her words reminded her of herself and John. She suddenly found herself simr to


    whom she advised Matilda to be.


    Meanwhile, William and John were on their way back to theirpany. While his father didn’t say a


    single word, John was suddenly amused by a thought that shed across his mind. He then said, “It


    seems that someone isn’t happy to see Mom dining with another man.”


    After a brief contemtion, William directly admitted it. “Well, that definitely didn’t sit well with me.”


    John smiled and said, “Well, what was there that you could have done? After all, both of you are


    divorced, and it’s her freedom to be anyone. You can’t do anything.”


    William looked askance at John. “And you sound like someone watching and gloating from the


    sideline.”

    In response, John only pursed his lips. “Actually, I used to think that Mom was likely going to end up


    spending her days in solitude for the rest of her life if she ended up getting divorced with you, judging


    from her age and previous personality, but it looks like I was wrong. I didn’t expect getting into a second


    rtionship was so easy for her.”
