“Was she alone?” Matilda asked, startled.
Sophia shook her head, and it was John who answered, “There was a man next to her. I think that’s her
matchmake partner, and they look rather compatible. We saw that they were chatting happily and
seemed to be getting along well.”
Nodding, Matilda said, “That’s good.”
Feeling a little nosy, Sophia’s eyes drifted toward William. In the end, she didn’t see any reaction from
him as he kept his eyes fixed on his laptop with a frown.
Matilda noticed the look in her eyes and chuckled. Patting her shoulder, she said in a hushed voice,
“Yolanda called him just two days ago.”
Raising an eyebrow, she asked hurriedly, “What did she say? Why is she calling now?”
Sighing, Matilda answered, “Well, she didn’t say anything inappropriate. She said that that man had
proposed to her and wanted to ask for William’s opinion if she should agree to the proposal or not.”
A helpless smile flashed across Sophia’s face; anyone could tell how narrow-minded that move was. If
she really wanted some opinion, she should have called her parents instead of a man whom she had
some complicated relations with. There was no way she would believe that Yolanda was not up to
some small tricks in her heart.
And it looked like Matilda knew about her intentions as well.
“Doesn’t she know if she wants to accept the proposal or not?” Old Mrs. Constance cried. “William
doesn’t even know that man, so what opinion would he have?” With a disgusted look, she added,
“She’s still harboring such thoughts at this time. A man never knows contentment. If she keeps this up,
she’ll not enjoy her life.”
Since she was speaking quite loud, William must have heard it as well, and the edge of Sophia’s lips
curled upward with sheer delight.
John reached out and stroked her chin with his finger. “Just smile if you want to. Why are you holding
back?”
Twisting her head at him, she hit him playfully on the arm. “It’s awkward.”
With a snort, he bantered, “You find it awkward? But you looked happy when you hugged Ian in front of
everyone.”
This made both Old Mrs. Constance and Matilda turn their heads in curiosity.
Waving her hand anxiously, she explained, “Don’t get me wrong. That was just a hug to say goodbye at
the end and purely a form of greeting between friends. With such a big belly, it’s impossible for me to
have any other thoughts.”
Nodding, Matilda asked, “Why are you explaining yourself so anxiously when we didn’t say anything at
all?”
“Exactly. The more you try to explain, the more guilty you appear,” Old Mrs. Constance chimed in.
“Why are you guys adding fuel to the fire?” Sophia whined, her face twitching.
A little while after Sophia and John left, Ian stood up to leave, too. He had come from work directly and
didn’t even have the opportunity to remove his makeup, so it went to show that he didn’t have time to
catch a break in between. Even Ian himself looked exhausted and wanted to go home earlier to rest.
...
Knowing his schedule, Lorraine understood that it was already amazing that he was able to make it
here despite being so busy today. Hence, she didn’t try to make him stay and told him that he could
come to her anytime he ran into any trouble.
Lorraine could be considered as the one who introduced him into showbiz, so she felt a certain sense
of responsibility for him.
After bidding everyone goodbye, Ian left, and soon after, Logan and Lola said that they wanted to leave
as well. Old Mr. Jefferson and his four sons-in-law were taken aback and quickly tried to make them
stay a little longer.
