Stunned, Matilda quickly explained, “No, of course not. It’s just that it’s dangerous to drive at night, so if
you go home now, you’ll reach there earlier.”
William withdrew his gaze and looked down at his phone. “It’s late now anyway, so it doesn’t matter
whether I go back sooner or later.”
Matilda stared at William, feeling inexplicable oddness in her heart. William used to be different. In the
past, no matter what she said, he seemed to be too lazy to argue with her. He simply agreed and
carried out her bidding at once. So it was uncommon for him to act like this.
Matilda didn’t know what to say, so she leaned against the headrest and waited for time to pass. On the
other hand, William checked his inbox and read his mail. After a while, he felt uncomfortable sitting like
that, so he turned and leaned against the headrest just like Matilda.
The two of them each occupied half of the bed and sat there quietly. In fact, it was not dissimilar to the
past. As a middle-aged couple, there wasn’t much to say. In the past, they were like this at night too.
Matilda was usually the one who complained and nagged, and after she finished, silence would
descend upon the room.
The two of them sat on the bed checking their phones respectively without a word. However, Matilda
felt extremely uncomfortable now.
Now that I think of it, I really don’t know what we were doing in the past. There were so many
opportunities to be alone together, yet we only looked at our phones instead of each other.
Matilda thought for a bit and then said, “I really don’t feel good for Sophia to stay here. She gets into
trouble even just by standing in the courtyard. I don’t think she should stay here for a long time. How
about you discuss with your family for her to go back to the Constance Residence? The courtyard there
is larger, and it’s fine for her to move around however much she wants. There are also many more
people there, so it will be more convenient to take care of her and safer too. Of course, this is just my
own opinion. I’m just making a suggestion; it’s still up to you and Sophia to decide.”
William turned around and looked at Matilda.
Matilda felt slightly awkward under his gaze and hurriedly added, “This is just my opinion, and I’m just
casually bringing it up. It’s your matter after all, so I can’t call the shots. If you’re not willing, then just
forget it.”
William gazed at Matilda for a few seconds before suddenly asking, “Will you come over too?”
Taken aback, Matilda stared at him for a long while before coming to her senses and realizing what he
meant. Her lips parted slightly; her face felt uncomfortably hot. William’s gaze was very focused on her;
it was something she hadn’t seen before. Matilda never knew that her heart could beat so fast. Her
mind was instantly muddled by those five words. In fact, her mind kept playing over and over again
those words ‘Will you come over too?’.
Even though William didn’t explain what he meant by asking that, considering his expression, Matilda
felt that she could accurately guess what he meant. After a while, she withdrew her gaze. Combing her
hair with her fingers, she tried hard to look as calm as possible. “Me? Um, I’m not sure yet. If Sophia
goes over there, I’ll feel reassured knowing that you guys will take care of her. As for me, I-I…” She
wasn’t really able to finish her sentence. Actually, she didn’t want to resolutely say no, but she was
afraid of embarrassing herself.
Grunting, William got up from the bed and walked toward the corridor. For a moment, Matilda didn’t
understand what William meant by that. He seemed to be calling John, asking the latter when he would
be back. Then he said that he would wait for them downstairs before hanging up the phone.
William didn’t return to the room but stayed downstairs. Matilda drew in a few deep breaths. Did I say
something wrong just now? I didn’t say anything terrible, right?
Covering her face, Matilda felt a little confused in her heart.
