Fabian agreed. “Take me with you. I wanna go and see who’s so bold to mess with you.”

William, who had rushed upstairs, barged into Matilda’s room.

When Sophia and Ms. Cannon saw this, they packed up and left the room tactfully.

Matilda originally wanted to get up, but she realized that it wasn’t her injury that hurt; it was her entire back. She

grunted with pain and lay back down again. Chuckling bitterly to herself, she said to William, “Forget it. I’m not

gonna be courteous and get up. I’ll just lie here like this.”

William went over, checked her injury and asked, “Does it hurt?”

Matilda shrugged. “How can it not hurt? But it’s tolerable.”

William sat down next to her. “You used to be so delicate, but now you don’t care so much anymore.”

In the past, if Matilda bumped into something ever so slightly, she would complain about it for a long time.

Matilda laughed at his words, her body shaking with the force of her laughter. “Indeed, I used to be really delicate.”

When had she changed? Matilda herself too wondered about it before. Her change seemed to come at that very

moment when she found out that Sophia was pregnant.

Long ago, she used to be a little princess. After marriage, she had turned into an old princess, and she hadn’t found

the right place for herself.

When she knew that Sophia was pregnant, she had a sudden flash of realization. She was going to be a

grandmother soon, yet she still acted so senselessly.

Perhaps she had started to change then. Even though human growth was a slow process, she felt that she had

literally grown up mentally at that split second.

Letting out a breath, William looked at the back of Matilda’s head and said, “It would’ve been great if you were like

this in the past.”

Matilda paused; she didn’t quite know what to say.

A brief silence enveloped the room as awkwardness descended upon them. Then, William said, “Do you need to go

to the hospital? Are you certain it’s just a superficial wound?”

Matilda thought for a moment before saying, “I think so. It was just a brief impact, so I don’t think it’ll be a big

deal.”

William sighed. “You really got me worrying.”

I suppose I’ve always made him worry over me. When Matilda thought about it, she felt ashamed.

Ms. Cannon had made dinner, and she then came over to tell the two of them to come down to eat.

Matilda could still get up, so she got down the bed with William’s support.

In the dining hall, John and Fabian were discussing what to do next in order to catch the mastermind behind all this.

With Fabian there, many problems could be solved a little easier.

Sophia didn’t have much appetite, so she only ate a little before going out.

When he saw that, John knew that she was feeling uncomfortable inside. Considering the fact that someone was

out to hurt her, it would be strange if she didn’t feel uncomfortable about it.

Thus, John did not eat much either. He came out to see Sophia standing silently in the courtyard. She really isn’t

afraid of anything.

John went over and stood beside her. “Don’t feel upset about it. There won’t be a next time.”

Turning her head, Sophia looked at him and asked, “You’ve caught that guy, right?”

John replied, “Yeah, I have him locked up now.”

Sophia nodded. “I’ll go over there later as well. I want to see who it is.”

John paused, his brows creasing together. “I don’t think you should go. It won’t be a pretty sight, and I’m afraid that

you’ll be upset afterward.”

“Why would I be?” Sophia chuckled. “It’s okay. Don’t worry. I’m much stronger than you think.”

After finishing dinner, Fabian came out as well and stretched. “Ugh, I had wanted to come and relax. Who would

know I’d encounter such a thing instead?”

William and Matilda finished eating together, then William helped Matilda go upstairs.

Meanwhile, John went over to William to tell him that he was going to bring Sophia out for a walk and told him to
