Sophia chuckled to herself, but she also knew that Matilda was right. Of course, she couldn’t assume that John
would love her forever, so she shouldn’t continue to be willful like this. After all, she had to give the man the respect
he was due.
Then, Sophia looked up at the sky. “Let me think about it, but John hasn’t performed very well recently. Let me
observe him some more.”
Matilda then asked Sophia if she was bored at home. She said she wanted to come over to see her.
For sure, Sophia was more than happy to entertain her, so she immediately said, “Come over. I’ve been sitting in
the garden alone in a daze for quite some time now. Come and lend me an ear so that I can vent to you about John.
Otherwise, I really don’t have a shoulder to cry on.”
Matilda laughed exasperatedly at what Sophia said. Then, she sighed and grumbled, “It’s good that I understand
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou. If I don’t, I would really be pissed off by you.” After she hung up, Sophia continued sitting in the garden.
A moment later, Lady Jennifer had packed up and was walking out of her own yard toward the parking lot. When
passing by the garden, she obviously noticed Sophia, but she didn’t look at her and just passed by with her eyes
staring straight ahead.
Leaning on the chair, Sophia naturally saw Lady Jennifer as well, but Sophia’s temperament was such that she
wouldn’t be polite to anyone who wasn’t friendly toward her.
The two of them were aware of each other’s presence, but neither of them spoke. Then, Lady Jennifer walked to
the parking lot and opened the car door. She couldn’t help herself but glance back at Sophia. The latter was leaning
on the chair with her head slightly raised. She was clearly basking in the sun and looked very comfortable. Lady
Jennifer’s expression was a little complicated as she stared at Sophia for a long time before getting into the car and
driving away. If Dylan married Sophia back then, the house might already be full of kids running around, she
thought. But then, one couldn’t think too much into this kind of thing; it would only make him or herself feel
distraught. Lady Jennifer sighed after a long while. After some time, Sophia got up slowly. She walked toward the
main building and came to an area not far from the main gate when Matilda’s car drove over. Sophia immediately
replaced the frosty expression on her face with a grin as she walked over. As the main gate opened, Matilda drove
in and parked her car in the parking lot. Then, she got out of the car and looked at Sophia. She snorted a bit before
her gaze landed on the latter’s belly. “You look bigger than before.” Sophia touched her belly with both hands. “I too
feel like I’m much bigger than before.” Thinking about it, she realized that she had been carrying the baby for more
than three months by now. Time really flies.

In just a few months, I will be able to meet the child in my belly. Matilda came over and touched Sophia’s belly. “So,
you have to think thoroughly about when you will remarry John. There will be problems if you don’t remarry him
before the child’s registration.” Sophia nodded. “I know. Let me observe John’s performance some more.” John
hadn’t performed well last night, but he had spoken so sadly this morning at the parking lot that his words had
made her go all soft inside. After that, Matilda followed Sophia to the main building. Sophia brought William up and
asked Matilda if he had promised her anything when he moved in with her. Matilda frowned. She said that she still
didn’t quite understand how things had developed up to this point. In fact, William had suddenly called her a few
days ago, saying that he had drunk too much while socializing outside, so he had asked her to pick him up. This kind
of thing had happened before, so Matilda didn’t think too much into it and simply drove over to pick William up. In
the end, William refused to go back to the Constance Residence. He hummed and hawed, begged and pleaded
before ending up at her house.
