Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 770

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?”
