Chapter 1195


    When talking about Jordan, Shannon seemed a little downcast.


    "Dating is boring. Honestly, I envy Lally a lot right now. She has no husband but has a n adorable


    child. Although it’s exhausting t o raise a child by yourself, it’s great to have no bastards pissing you


    off."


    Lally let out a long sigh. "You don''t understand. You''re at the best stage right now. Alone and free,


    able to do whatever you want to without a single worry. If you feel lonely and want to date someone,


    you can just find a man. If you don’t feel like dating, then you can live happily on your own. How


    awesome is that?"


    Cally continued after a pause, "If the heavens give me a second chance to start anew, I certainly


    wouldn''t have chosen to get married."


    Shannon nodded. "You can choose not to get married, but you most certainly can’t give up on


    finding a boyfriend. Firstly, it''s t o fulfill your physical needs. Secondly, it''s t o receive love and


    protection. Don’t you agree?"


    Cally nodded to agree, not even noticing that Shannon was going to start worming something out of


    her.


    “It''s especially important to fulfill our physical needs.” Shannon let out a long sigh. "Unfortunately, I


    found a boyfriend who can’t fulfill my physical needs. Mr. Fredericks can''t do it.”


    She held onto Cally''s arm and asked with a face full of sorrow, "Do you think he doesn''t like me at


    all, Lally? Maybe he even hates m e and that''s why he keeps refusing to touch me."


    I did not know that Shannon was actually s o good at worming information out of people.


    Seeing Shannon''s face full of sadness, Lally subconsciouslyforted her. "Mr. Fredericks


    certainly doesn''t hate you, and neither is he refusing to touch you. He just has psychological


    trauma. All these years, he has refused to let any woman go near him, much less bring himself to


    ept any woman. He can''t get past the hurdle in his heart."


    Lally continued after a pause, “Since he epted you, then he must like you. But I didn''t know that


    he hasn''t gone back to normal. It’s been many years. Looks like that incident is still affecting him."

    Shannon pricked up her ears and quickly asked, "What did Jordan go through?"


    "W-When he was a kid...”


    Lally rested her head on the table and fell asleep halfway through the sentence.


    Shannon looked at me,ughing and crying at the same time. "I was nearly there."


    I chuckled. "Alright now. It’s gettingte. I''ll take both of you home. You can always ask again some


    other day."


    Shannon and I nned to take Lally home first, but Jordan came to pick Shannon up.


    "Let''s go together," he suggested.


    I agreed, seeing that all of us were on the same route.


    Cally got into the car, while I went around t o the other side. I was ready to get in when a ck


    Bently suddenly pulled up in front o f me.


    I was all too familiar with this car and could not help but squint my eyes to look into the car''s


    windshield.


    The ck-tinted windshield made it hard t o see. The person in the car was tactful enough to roll the


    window down, revealing a face that I was all too familiar with.


    Matthew!


    What was he doing here?


    I calmed myself down and opened the car door, ready to flee.


    "Wanda!"


    Matthew got out of the car.


    It had been a long time since west met, and it felt like I had been cut off from the outside world for


    ages.


    I turned around and saw him walking toward me.
