“Nothing?” questioned Belinda, with a smirk on her face. “When Yolanda was in the hospital, you’ve
been visiting the hospital so often. William, as if I’ll believe it when you tell me that there’s nothing going
on.”
Frustrated, William didn’t know what to say, so he kept quiet throughout the journey when he sent
Belinda home.
Bursting with happiness, Belinda didn’t go for a rest, but instead, she was discussing with the servants
to work out a to-buy-list for Sophia.
Seeing that, William couldn’t help but smile, and after excusing himself, he went upstairs.
As soon as he had reached his room, his phone rang—it was John.
Picking up the call, William asked, “John? Is there anything?”
Letting out a sigh, John said, “Nothing in particular. I couldn’t quite sleep, so I thought of dropping you a
call.”
In his throaty voice, he continued, “Dad, do you intend to reconcile with Mom?”
Dumbstruck for a moment, William asked, “Why do you ask all of a sudden?”
Chuckling, John spilled, “Well, when we had dinner today, I saw you stealing quick glances at Mom a
few times, so I thought you were thinking of… you know.”
Feeling awkward, William reckoned he wasn’t exactly stealing glances at Matilda. Frankly, he just felt
that Matilda had changed so much, so he couldn’t help but cast a few more glances at her.
Was that considered as stealing glances?
With an awkward cough, William explained, “I wasn’t stealing glances at your mom, and I have no other
intentions. Don’t misunderstand.”
“I see. By the way, how are things with you and Yolanda?”
Frowning, William clearly didn’t expect John would ask too.
With a stern voice, William protested firmly, “There’s nothing going on between Yolanda and me, so
there’s nothing much to talk about. I hope all of you will take my word for it.”
Guffawing, John said, “Actually, if there’s really something going on between you two, no one will be
against it. About you and Mom, I guess both of you are not meant to be?”
Upon thinking of Matilda’s frosty manner toward him today, William thought perhaps John was right
about them—they weren’t meant to be.
Unwilling to continue with this topic, William asked about Sophia.
In a casual manner, John said everything was going well between him and Sophia. Of course, he would
deliberately leave out the part about him being driven out of the room by Sophia.
That time, when a random thought struck her, she said the sight of him pissed her off, which led to him
being chased out of the room.
Confused, John felt he was at his wit’s end when it came to understanding Sophia.
In the past, he found it difficult to keep her under control. With her being pregnant now, she became the
boss lady of the household.
Pondering for a second, William asked, “You decided to be with her because of the child?”
Hearing that, John laughed aloud. “Dad, it has nothing to do with the child. I want to be with her
because I like her. I know my heart’s desires.”
Hearing that, John laughed aloud. “Dad, it has nothing to do with the child. I want to be with her
because I like her. I know my heart’s desires.”
As expected, Sophia was woken up during the middle of the night.
Pressing her lips together, she grumbled sleepily, “B*stard! You did it on purpose. You just have to
disturb my sleep all the time.”
Leaning forward, John planted a kiss on her lips. “Sorry, you get on with your sleep.”
Not knowing how to deal with the shameless side of him, Sophia turned her back against him and
continued with her sleep.
Drawing himself nearer toward her, John held her closely within his arms.
Back then, he could still hit the booze and do whatever he wanted with her, but now, he had to get a
hold of himself and behave.
Gently caressing her belly, John shut his eyes.
While he was fast asleep, his phone that was left at the bedside table vibrated.
At first, he planned to ignore it, but later, his phone vibrated again.
Thinking about it, he turned around to reach out for his phone.
Initially, he figured it was his subordinates that sent him a WhatsApp message, but much to his
surprise, it was Isabelle. The first message was removed, but the second message was her apologizing
for sending the wrong message.
