Chapter 574

Matilda froze for a moment, but she then hurriedly denied it. “No, no, Belle would never do that. I just
want you to know that she’s very much concerned about you.”

At this, John barked out a tepid laugh. “Have you ever asked Isabelle how she feels about me before
playing matchmaker? Perhaps you read her wrongly.”

Taken aback, Matilda didn’t quite know what to say. Isabelle had indeed implored her not to disclose
the fact that she had feelings for John, and she understood that if it came to his knowledge that Isabelle
had feelings for him, he might assume that she instigated her considering all this matchmaking she was
doing.

After pondering for a while, she replied, “While Belle hasn’t said anything to that effect, I think she has
feelings for you judging from her concern toward you.” Seemingly having thought of something, she
added, “Belle was ecstatic back when the two of you got engaged, so it’s proof that she likes you and is
willing to marry you. Even after you married Sophia, she didn’t get together with anyone else. Thus, I
think she’s probably waiting for you. John, some opportunities may only come once, so you must seize
it. If you miss it, you might never have the opportunity again in the future.”

John said nothing. Truly, some opportunities may only come once. If I miss it, I’ll never have the
opportunity again. That’s why I’m so anxious now, so much so that I don’t know what to do. It’s really
disheartening to be confronted by a predicament in which I’m stuck, neither advancement nor retreat
possible.

He drove her home, but before Matilda had gotten out of the car, her cell phone rang. Picking it up, she
glanced at it, whereupon a smile bloomed on her face and she said to John, “Look how considerate
Belle is. She’s calling now, probably asking whether I’ve arrived home.”



John leaned over and opened the car door on her side right away. “Talk to her after you’ve alighted
from the car.” Startled, Matilda exclaimed in surprise, but John had grown impatient. “Hurry up. It’s late,
and I haven’t had dinner.”

He nudged her slightly, so Matilda climbed out of the car. Still a touch dazed, she turned and looked at
him. “Hey, wait a minute! I’ll talk to Belle for a while, then you can also—”

John pulled the car door closed, aware of the trick up her sleeve. He had nothing to say to Isabelle, so
he wasn’t about to tarry, driving away without a moment’s hesitation. From the rear-view mirror, he
could see her answering the call even as she waved a fist in his direction. Letting out a sigh of relief,
his expression gradually relaxed.

When he returned to Constance Residence, Old Mrs. Constance was seated on the sofa with Lady
Jennifer who’d come over, and the two of them were talking. Mild surprise suffused John at the sight of
Lady Jennifer, but still, he greeted her politely. Flashing him a smile, Lady Jennifer remarked, “You’re
only back at this hour?”

John murmured an acquiescence. “I went to see my mother, so I’m a bit late today.”

The moment Old Mrs. Constance heard that he’d gone to see his mother, she sighed. “How’s she
doing?”

John deliberated for a moment before answering, “I think she’s doing rather well. I noticed that she
looked quite good.” Other than appearing a smidge despondent at the mention of Isabelle, she looked
fine otherwise. It seems that she has started accepting her current life.



He hadn’t had dinner, so he subsequently turned and ordered the kitchen staff to cook him a bowl of
noodles. The kitchen staff then promptly began preparing his meal.

Meanwhile, he then walked over to the sofa before sitting down to chat with Old Mrs. Constance and
Lady Jennifer. Old Mrs. Constance asked him whether he was going on the business trip since William
had already packed, commenting that she’d never once seen him this enthusiastic to the point of
anticipation to go on a business trip in the past. John and Lady Jennifer laughed at this, but only John
knew that it wasn’t an exaggeration at all.
