The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
Chapter 378

Natasha looked disappointed. "I can't believe you're my daughter. How did you manage to get divorced at this age? Do you have any idea how embarrassed I am?"

Matilda was about to get into a big fight with her mother, but the sudden announcement took her by surprise. "What are you talking about, Mom?"

Natasha sneered. "I said you're getting a divorce, so what are you going to do about it? Mrs. Constance herself came personally and said she wants you and William to finish the paperwork as soon as possible. They'll give you your share of the wealth, so don't worry about it."

Matilda forced a smile, refusing to believe it. "Yeah, right, as if they'd do that. Others aside, I know William won't."

Natasha looked at her in disbelief. "His mother came here herself. That's saying something. Also, how can you be so sure William isn't tired of you? Matilda, I'm your mom, and even I can't stand you. How do you expect William to put up with you?"

Matilda didn't want to believe this, and she insisted, "No. I know he isn't tired of me. He isn't!" Fetching her cell phone over, she quickly called William, but nobody picked it up after a long while, and her face fell.

She made multiple calls, but nobody picked it up, so she put her phone down. Looking up at her mother, she turned a tad panicked. "Mom, what did my mother-in-law say?"

Natasha stared at her for a while, then she sighed, her voice cold still. "She said you and William aren't a good match. Plus, they don't think they have what it takes to please you, and the Constances have problems of their own, so they have no time to handle your matter. Mrs. Constance wants you to go through the divorce paperwork with William as soon as possible. They'll come up with the agreement, and she promised you'd get your dues."

"I'm not getting a divorce!" she exclaimed, her eyes wide. "No, no, no!"

Natasha didn't know what she should do with Matilda. "I asked you to come down earlier so I could help you, but you didn't take the chance. Well, you're on your own now."

Because of her daughter's wilful actions, Matilda embarrassed her in front of Mrs. Constance. This fool! She's on her own now! Then Natasha left.

Matilda was still sitting on the bed, stunned. She couldn't believe William would dump her, for she knew the kind of person he was. After all, they were married for years.

Matilda could understand why her mother said William couldn't put up with her anymore. She was a drama queen sometimes, but they still got through it all these years. Why not now?

A moment later, Matilda quickly changed her clothes and went downstairs, but the living room was deserted. She quickly went to the garage, calling William at the same time, but he never picked up no matter how many times she called.

If it was in the past, William would only not take her calls when he was having an appointment or a meeting. Also, she didn't think William was in the dark about his mother coming here to talk about the divorce. In other words, if he knew about this, then him not taking her calls meant... Best not to think about it. Cutting off her line of thought, she quickly drove toward Constance Residence.

This was no time to care about her pride. She drove at top speed and ran two red lights so she could arrive sooner. After she rang the doorbell, the butler came to take it. When he saw it was her, he let her in.
