The Returning Ex

Old Mrs. Constance noticed William’s expression clearly and sighed.

After lunch, it was time for William and John to return to the company. Sophia and Matilda sat on the sofa and didn’t send them off. In fact, they didn’t even look at them at all. Sighing, John said to his father, “Come on, let’s go. Our statuses are about the same.”

After the two of them left, the family doctor came over to check on Matilda’s injury.

Indeed, it wasn’t a severe injury. However, the force from the brick had caused Matilda to be afflicted with a lumbar sprain. The doctor said that using warm compresses on her lower back before going to bed at night would help. Other than that, she was fine.

Matilda nodded and thanked the doctor. As the doctor knew Matilda from before, he was really taken aback to see her being so polite. In the past, not only had Matilda never thanked him, but she had also ordered him around bossily. In any case, the doctor courteously responded to her and then left with the medicine kit.

Old Mrs. Constance said she wanted to go for a walk, and Sophia didn’t want to go back to her room to lie down, so they pulled Matilda along to the back garden.
