Next One Is a Babe

When it was almost time for Constance Group’s lunch break, Matilda took out her phone. She intended to call William and tell him that she was waiting for him here.

However, before the call got through, she saw a cab stop at the entrance of Constance Group. The one who pushed the door and got out of the car was the very person Matilda had come here to guard against.

Laughing all of a sudden, Matilda put the phone back into her bag, then slowly got up and walked to the entrance of the cafe. By now, Yolanda had entered the lobby of Constance Group.

The employees were leaving one after another as the elevators sent waves after waves of people to the ground floor. However, those who came out were all office workers.

Yolanda sat down on the sofa in the lobby. After waiting for a while, she finally saw John and William coming out of the elevator together. She quickly stood up with a smile on her face. "William!"

Both John and William were startled to see her there and stopped in their tracks.

William frowned at her. "Why are you here?"

Yolanda laughed. "I’m just passing by."

John didn't leave. Instead, he stood still, looking like he was waiting for William. Yolanda blinked at William and suggested, "Let’s have lunch together. I went to the hospital for a body examination today, and the doctor said that I’m recovering pretty well. I remembered how you cared for me in the past, so I think it’s time for me to show my gratitude."

William's expression did not relax. "You want to have lunch together? But today, I’m..." Before he could finish his words, someone came in from the entrance of the lobby and a familiar voice rang out. “William! Are you on your lunch break now?”

Taken aback, William raised his eyes, only to see Matilda coming his way. In a flash, his serious frown disappeared from his face. Then, he waved at Matilda and called out, "Why are you here?"

Matilda went over and instinctively wrapped her hands around William's arm. As the two held hands, she turned to look at Yolanda and put on a surprised expression. "You’re here too?"

Yolanda smiled at her. "Yes, I went to the hospital just now, and I passed by here when I was going home."

Nodding, Matilda then turned to look at William again. "I also passed by the company and thought that it should be your lunch break now, so I wanted to ask you to go back to Constance Residence for a meal together. Besides, Sophia called me just now and said that she and Mom have been feeling bored at home all day. She asked if we’re going back at noon. You guys should be free, right? Then let’s go back and have a meal together."

John hurriedly spoke up next to her. "Yes, the house has indeed been a bit too deserted."

William nodded as well. "I just mentioned this to John a while ago. I intended to drive home to pick you up, but I didn't expect you to come here."

When they chatted like this, Yolanda became a little awkward as she stood there. Matilda waited until the conversation ceased before turning to look at her. "Why don't you come along too? It’ll be livelier with more people around."
