Matilda stopped in her tracks as her eyes widened. Turning around, she snarled, “What nonsense are you
spouting?”
With a haughty expression, Sophia ignored what she said and continued with a sigh, “You’re like the pot calling the
kettle black. You said that I don’t deserve John, but in the end, you’re kicked out of the Constance Family at such an
old age. How pitiful. I’m young and childless, so I can still get another man. On the other hand, you are old and
unattractive. I’m afraid that you don’t even have enough time to get a new man.”
Matilda’s expression turned dark. “Stop acting weirdly and spouting nonsense. What you’ve said isn’t true.”
Sophia smiled. “Am I saying nonsense? Do you think you can still hide it?”
Then, she walked toward Matilda’s car and leaned on it. “Well, did you learn from John and me by hiding the fact
that you’re divorced? Oh, you’re the one who exposed the fact that John and I divorced, right? I don’t like to owe
anyone, but I also hate it when others owe me. I’ll get even with you by exposing your secret as well.”
Matilda’s expression was thunderous. “Sophia, how dare you!”
“Try me.” Sophia burst into laughter. “Well, I totally have the courage to expose your secret.”
Matilda pressed her lips together, not knowing what to say.
In fact, Sophia was a reckless person, so she had no qualms dealing a blow to Matilda.
All of a sudden, Sophia lost interest in bickering with Matilda because the latter appeared to be powerless.
After giving it a thought, she said, “Isabelle misses you dearly. She said that she’d pay you a visit at the Constance

Matilda was startled. “Belle is looking for me?”
“Yes, she misses you very much.” Sophia moved away from the car and sneered, “I wonder how she will react
when she finds out that you and Master William are divorced. I’m looking forward to it.”
Frowning, Matilda never responded to her.
Shooting a look at her, Sophia snorted and turned to leave.
After remaining on the spot for a while, Matilda got into her car. Without starting the engine, she took out her
phone and dialed Isabelle’s number.
Isabelle was still at her company when she received Matilda’s call, which surprised her. Immediately connecting the
call, she called out, “Mrs. Constance.”
Matilda smirked. “Belle, are you busy?”
Certainly, Isabelle wouldn’t say that she was busy. Instead, she asked how Matilda was doing and said that she
missed her.
Matilda was relieved that Isabelle was still as gentle to her as before. With nothing to do at the moment, she asked,
“I’m in the city center. Belle, do you want to meet up?”
Without hesitation, Isabelle replied, “Sure. Since it’s lunch time now, I’m going.”
Matilda told her to meet up at a cafe near Bailey Corporation and said that she was going immediately. Upon
hanging up the call, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Since the divorce, the Flintstones had given her the cold shoulder, while William didn’t seem to have the intention of
making up with her. Worse, she was derided by Sophia just a moment ago. Now, Isabelle was the only one who was
still as kind to her as before.
A while later, she stepped on the gas pedal and headed for Bailey Corporation.
Isabelle was already in the cafe when Matilda arrived. Seeing Matilda, Isabelle beckoned to her. “Mrs. Constance,
I’m here.”
Matilda hurriedly walked over. “Oh wow, I’m not used to seeing you in a suit. You look like a successful
businesswoman.”
Isabelle tucked her hair behind her ear and said, “I just look like one, but there are many things that I don’t
understand. Most of the time, I’ll ask for John’s help.”
