“Yeah.” Matilda also sighed. “Say, she hasn’t given up even until now. I’m really a little worried that after I remarry

William, she’ll linger around as before.”

She didn’t even want to imagine that kind of life.

In response, Sophia sighed. “This matter should still be handled by Mr. Constance. It’s actually not that good for you

to always come forward to resolve it.”

After all, Yolanda’s goal was William, and if William completely extinguished her hopes, there would definitely be no

subsequent problems from her.

Matilda nodded. “Yes, that’s the truth indeed.”

At the mention of that, Sophia remembered Isabelle, so she said, “I used to think Isabelle was trouble, but

compared with your case, I think she’s nothing at all.”

Even though Isabelle was quite headstrong, if Sophia verbally stimulated her, she would visibly flinch a little.

However, Yolanda was clearly very adaptable to any kind of situation. It was not enough to simply stimulate her with

words as she wouldn’t mind much.

Sophia fell silent for a moment, and then said, “So you two shouldn’t delay your remarriage. After the remarriage,

you will become the legal wife, and it will undoubtedly put some pressure on Yolanda.”

That went without saying. Matilda did also take this into consideration.

Halfway through their discussion in the garden, they looked at the time before deciding to go back to the main

building. Lunch had already been served there, ready to be eaten.

Old Mrs. Constance smiled when she saw Sophia and Matilda coming back with their arms slung around each other.

“Look at you two, looking just like a mother and her daughter.” John leaned on the back of his chair, his mouth

curved up slightly. “Yeah, and I’m like the stepson.” Some things just couldn’t be compared; one would feel upset

about it. In the past, Matilda was kind to John and treated Sophia harshly. Now, it was completely the other way

around. Everyone sat down and started to eat. While they were eating, William and John started talking about work.

They also briefly mentioned the recent supply situation at Bailey Corporation. William said that the person in charge

of Bailey Corporation had recently been replaced by Ernest Bailey, the second son of the Bailey Family. It could be

that Old Mr. Bailey was too busy, so he had handed over some of his authority. However, Ernest clearly didn’t have

the bold character of Old Mr. Bailey. He was too conservative, and because he was afraid of losing money, many of

the partnerships that they originally wanted to negotiate were temporarily shelved by him. Moreover, the amount

of purchasing from Constance Group had also fallen sharply recently. William said that he had met Ernest before,

and that man had also come over. Compared with the fearlessness of Old Mr. Bailey, Ernest was much more

cautious. However, he was a little too vigilant, hence restricting the company’s expansion and development.

At that, John smirked. Old Mr. Bailey mainly wanted to take over the shadow bank, so he had completely ignored

the company. At the same time, he had terminated Isabelle’s position at the company. He probably intended to pull

her into the shadow bank business as well. Now, he was just waiting to get thoroughly acquainted with the business

before pulling Isabelle over. However, they had forgotten that Isabelle might resist after being oppressed for such a

long time. Sophia couldn’t figure it out, so she looked at William and asked, “Does this mean that Old Mr. Bailey

doesn’t care about the company now? I remember that he used to hold the company with an iron grip, but now

he’s willing to delegate power to his brother. It’s really confusing to me.” William thought for a while before

replying, “Maybe he felt that his time and energy are limited, and with what happened to Dexter, he may not be

able to handle everything at once.” William was not very clear about the specifics. The Bailey Family was really

chaotic now, and there were also problems with the company’s internal structure. It would not be surprising if Old

Mr. Bailey could not handle everything alone. When they had finished discussing the Bailey Family’s affairs, Old Mrs.

Constance mentioned Matilda’s remarriage to William. She told William to choose a suitable date, take leave from

the company, and go to get the legalities settled with Matilda.
