Next One Is a Babe Chapter 941

With a bashful expression, Matilda replied to Old Mrs. Constance, “I told him to come back sometimes,

but he said it was inconvenient to come back and forth.”

It’s just an excuse, Sophia thought. Tutting, she said, “You don’t have to come up with an excuse for

him. We know that he’s reluctant to leave you.”

Rising from the couch, Old Mrs. Constance said, “I gave your mother a call just now. She said that she

would be free tomorrow, so I’m going to visit her and have a talk with her.”

After a moment of hesitation, she continued, “Matilda, I don’t regret forcing you to divorce William.

Perhaps it was because of the divorce that you had some free time to ponder on how to get along with

him. After this incident, I’m sure the two of you have learned what it takes to maintain a happy

marriage.”

Nodding, Matilda replied in a serious manner, “After the divorce, I was really resentful and didn’t know

what to do with my life. Later on, I realized that I’d learned a lot during the process. Perhaps this was

what I had to go through before I learned how to appreciate the one I loved.”

Her experience was similar to that of Sophia’s because she also believed that her divorce from John

was a blessing in disguise.

After they were separated, they realized that they were most compatible with each other and that they

still loved each other. If they were to spend the rest of their lives together, they had to learn how to get

along so that their love would last longer.

Since Sophia still appeared to be unhappy, Matilda suggested that they should have a walk around the

place. After taking a stroll for a while, they came across Virginia from the Third Constance Family.

Sophia rarely had the chance to talk to Virginia because the latter always kept a low profile in the

mansion.

Virginia was a soft-spoken woman. Even during family gatherings, she would rarely say anything.

Meanwhile, her husband, Samuel, had a disposition that was similar to hers; they both looked kind-

hearted.

Seeing Matilda and Sophia, Virginia flashed a smile at them and said, “Matilda, you’re back.”

Matilda nodded. “Are you going out?”

After heaving a sigh, Virginia replied, “It’s really boring to stay at home all the time. Since the weather is

nice today, I’m going to meet up with some friends and shop around.”

Sophia said, “I’m envious of you because I’m not even allowed to step out of this place.”

Staring at Sophia’s belly, Virginia replied, “I’m the one who should be envious of you, not the other way

round. There will be a new member coming to our family soon. I’m sure the atmosphere around the

house will be lively by then.”

At the mention of this, she continued, “I’ve been wondering when John and you will remarry. I missed

the days when we were able to spend time together as a family. This place is huge, with only a few

people living here. Sometimes, it can feel desolate.”

Matilda had to agree with her. In the past, after the men had gone out to work in the morning, only

some women were left in the house. At that time, she was a pretty haughty person, so she would rather

stay in the main building with Old Mrs. Constance than interacting with other people. Her life back then

was simple, but it was also boring.

Since Virginia wasn’t in a rush, she stayed there to have a chat with them. Gazing at Sophia’s bulging

belly, she said, “After John and you divorced, I could see that he was really anxious. There were times

when I caught him spacing out in the garden. He didn’t look pitiful, but he was definitely lonely. At that

time, I knew that he regretted divorcing you.”

Not knowing any of those, Sophia asked with a smile, “When did that happen?”

After giving it a thought, Virginia replied, “It was during the period of time after the news of your divorce

was exposed, and you moved out of the house.”
