Rumors had it that there was someone whom William used to like at the hospital now, so it was even more

impossible for Matilda and William to make up. Considering Matilda’s weak character, even an average woman

would do better than her. Now that there was someone else around her ex-husband, it was even more unlikely for

her to be considered.

Since Isabelle wanted to persuade the Constance Family to accept herself, she naturally did not wish to offend

William. Just now, she had tested John, and the man pretty much repulsed the topic regarding his mother. It’s

evident that Matilda couldn’t even hold on to her son’s heart now. Therefore, she couldn’t get too close to Matilda

at this critical time since William and John would be annoyed by that.

Matilda had finished talking and was waiting for Isabelle’s answer. Isabelle sighed and said, “Mrs. Constance, it’s not

that I don’t wish to help you. The truth is that I don’t have many opportunities to meet up with John now. After we

set him up twice previously, he’s now rather disgusted and will certainly not agree if I invite him out. Sometimes

when I call or text him, he wouldn’t even respond. I don’t think I’m able to help you much.”

Matilda went so quiet on the other side of the phone that one could hear a pin drop. Isabelle then pretended to be

torn and suggested, “How about this? I’ll try to text and call John whenever I can, alright? If it works, great, but if it

doesn’t work, please don’t blame me.”

Matilda asked after a pause, “Don’t you and John see each other much now?”

Isabelle replied, “Yeah, our relationship has been a little tricky and controversial all along. Now that John is trying to

avoid arousing suspicion, both of us have not seen each other for a long time.”

At this, Matilda laughed aloud, causing Isabelle to feel baffled. After laughing, Matilda answered, “Well, fine then. So

be it. I will think of a solution myself.”

Matilda then hung up at once, after which Isabelle threw the phone onto the passenger seat beside her. Her face

was cold and expressionless.

After Matilda hung up, she stood still and thought for a while before chuckling. Walking out of the café with her bag,

she stared at the office building of the Constance Group for a long time. In the end, she reached out a hand and

hailed a cab.

Matilda had nowhere to go, so she asked the cabbie to drive around Wharf Avenue for a while before finally telling

him to head to Sophia’s shop.

Sophia and Robin were very busy. Logan had placed a bulk order today, and the two were in the midst of preparing

and packing the huge quantity of goods.

Matilda entered the shop with a long face. When Sophia saw her, she stared at the older woman with surprise

written all over her face before she questioned, “Why are you here? Have you come to smash the shop?”

Faced with such direct questions, Matilda snorted. “Even if I smashed your lousy shop, I could afford to

compensate.”

Lowering her head, Sophia continued to be busy but said, “If you really smash the shop, I must thank you. But I

don’t want your compensation. Instead, I want you to go and squat inside the jail for a few days. Perhaps you’ll

become a better woman when you come out.”

Matilda glared at her. “Sophia, you’re really impudent now, aren’t you?”

Sophia laughed as she mocked, “I was impudent in the past too. Don’t you know that all too well?”

Gritting her teeth, Matilda stood there for a long time, then turned to sit by the window. Sophia was a little

astonished, for she thought that this woman would be infuriated and slam the door as she left. To her surprise,

Matilda didn’t leave but sat down in the shop instead.

Robin mused for a bit, then went over and asked Matilda if she needed anything.

Although Matilda didn’t need anything as she had eaten in the café just now, she knew that the bad-tempered

Sophia would ridicule her if she sat there without ordering anything. So, she ordered something to eat and drink.

However, Sophia was so busy that she had no time to bother about Matilda at all. She called Robin over to count the

stock and then check the various combinations possible.

In her seat, Matilda turned her head and looked outside, feeling very uncomfortable in her heart. She didn’t believe
