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."
Yolanda hurriedly waved a hand. "Since you guys are going back for lunch, I won't bother you any
further. Go on. I’ll be going home then."
Matilda nodded. "Okay, we’ll say our goodbyes here. We’ll leave first.”
After coming out of the company together, William didn't drive but got into Matilda's car. John drove his
own car, and the three of them left from the company entrance.
Yolanda stood on the side of the road, watching the two cars disappear one after another as her
expression slowly became complicated.
Back then, William would not reject her outright. Now, it seemed that she really had no more chance to
be with him.
She waited for a while by the road. When a cab arrived, she got into the car and gave her home
address. Then, she leaned into her seat.
Actually, she also knew that she had been too persistent. She should have known better and gotten
over it much earlier.
What she was doing was simply like scratching a scratch-off lottery ticket.
