Although Old Mr. Flintstone was sitting in the front seat, he was very tempted to turn around and slap Matilda. “Why are you so impatient? Has your brain decayed after all these years? How could you not have any improvement? You immature little girl.”
Matilda was still afraid of Old Mr. Flintstone, so she pursed her lips and lowered her voice. “What was I supposed to do? I just feel like what I did was completely normal.”
Right after that, Matilda’s phone started ringing, which surprised her. Taking her phone, Matilda saw that it was a call from Isabelle, so she stared at it for a while. She knew Isabelle called because the latter saw the news on the Internet, after which she couldn’t help but sigh. After the first call went unanswered, Isabelle immediately followed up with a second call.
Closing her eyes, Matilda informed her parents, “Someone’s calling me.”
Then, she accepted the call and greeted with a cheerful voice, “Hello, Belle. Why did you suddenly call me? What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
When Isabelle heard that Matilda didn’t sound different from how she was like previously, she was confused.
Isabelle lowered her voice. “Mrs. Constance, have you seen the news?”
Matilda knew that she would surely contact her because of this, so she chuckled. “I haven’t. What’s wrong?”
Isabelle probably felt like it wasn’t suitable to speak about this issue on the phone, so she suggested, “Mrs. Constance, are you free now? Why don’t we meet up? I have something to tell you.”
Matilda thought about it before agreeing.
She didn’t want to return to the Flintstone Residence, and those people from the Flintstone Family were probably waiting for her to get back.
Honestly, I really don’t want to see any of those people right now.
Matilda immediately agreed before instructing the driver, “Please drop me off at the junction in front. I have to go settle something important.”
Old Mrs. Flintstone leaned back on the seat. “That was Isabelle, isn’t it?”
Old Mr. Flintstone, who was sitting at the front, couldn’t stand the way Matilda was speaking anymore. “Why does John’s liking need to be related to you? Why are you worrying about others when you can’t even understand what’s wrong with your action today? You better save your energy for that.”
Matilda immediately shut up at that. She never talked back to her father, for he was never a person who’d spoil his kids.
After the driver stopped at the junction in front, Matilda got out of the car.
Before she left, Old Mrs. Flintstone didn’t forget to remind her, “Listen to me, stay away from Isabelle. You’ve been spoiled by William and us for so many years now, so you never really know how to think things through. Think about it, alright? Gosh, talking to you makes me really tired.”
Old Mrs. Flintstone looked away after that and instructed the driver, “Let’s go.”
Then, the driver drove away slowly. After standing by the side of the road for a long while, Matilda waved around to halt a cab.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
So what happens to Ian and Cindy. Is she/ or does she get pregnant? Do they go back to the city and Ian works with Logan? Does Aurora stay in the entertainment industry or return with Ian? Terrible ending, who cares if Aurora was drinking/drunk with colleagues. What happened with Ian and Cindy?!...
Get rid of Gary. Apparently Cindy is too dumb to figure out his motives 😡...
Why are you trying to break them up when they just got together and are a loving couple. Let them stay close and move back to their true friends, Logan, Lola, John and Sophia!...
Sure hope Ian pulls his head out of his behind and works this out with Cindy. His brother needs him at the company and neither one of them truly like the celebrity life. Sophia and Lola will love her …....
I can’t wait for John to take down the Bailey’s including Isabelle so he, Sophia, William and Matilda can live in peace. Introduce Yolanda to Richard so they are out of the picture....
Ugh, don’t break up Sophia and John… they belong together and Sophia is just stubborn for no reason...
Sophia lives John, he just needs to tell her he loves her and get on with their life and family. Too much interference from others....
Sophia is so stupid....
John needs to man up, tell his mother and Isabelle to take a flying leap and confess to Sophia that he made a horrible mistake in divorcing her. This story is taking too long and once again, the bitches are looking like they are on the right side. Awful...
