At this time, Professor Riley, whose back had been to Matilda, had already recovered.
Seeing Matilda dressed in glamorous clothes, he was pleasantly surprised and said, “Matilda! What a pleasure to see you! ”
Matilda smiled in surprise, “Professor Riley, are you here as well?” then she pointed to Charlie and exclaimed, “You... do you
know Charlie?”
Charlie hurriedly took the lead at this time, and said with a smile, “Auntie Matilda, a friend of mine just planned to do some new
business, so I invited him here for dinner.
I didn’t expect to run into Professor Riley here.”
Professor Riley knew that Charlie didn’t want too many people to know his true identity, so he agreed, “Yeah, Matilda.
I was surprised when I saw Charlie just now.
This is really a coincidence.”
Matilda accepted this explanation, nodded and smiled lightly, “It’s really a coincidence.
I also said that I would call you back and talk about the college training for senior citizens.
I don’t know if you’re busy with teaching tasks with your school?”
Professor Riley quickly said, “Ah! No matter how busy I am, I can spare time to help our senior college students to make
progress in their studies.”
Watching from the side, Zoey couldn’t help but feel a little surprised when she saw her father look so attentive and full of
excitement.
She thought that her father was the kind of person who had no interest in life, and she was afraid that he would not be destined
to find another partner in the future.
But when she saw her dad staring at the aunt in front of her, she suddenly realized that dad had also come to the day where the
old tree bloomed.
Then she couldn’t help but look at Matilda more closely, and she couldn’t help but sigh, “This aunt has excellent looks and
temperament.
She can still have such a temperament in middle-aged.
Dad has good taste in women...”
Matilda also noticed that there was a young and beautiful girl who had been looking at her, so she couldn’t help but to look back.
Seeing that the girl’s eyebrows were similar to John Riley, she became curious and asked, “Oh, John, is this your daughter?!”
Professor Riley suddenly remembered that he hadn’t introduced his precious girl to Matilda, so he quickly said, “Matilda, let me
introduce to you, this is my rebellious little girl, Zoey Riley.”
“Oh!” Matilda couldn’t help exclaiming, “It really is your daughter! She is so beautiful!”
Zoey smiled and said, “Auntie, you got it right.” Professor Riley then said to Zoey, “Zoey, this is Matilda Marks, Aunt Matilda.
She has just returned from the United States where she had been living.”
“Really?” Zoey heard this and could not help but brighten up.
She didn’t think there was anything great about returning from the United States, but felt that the experience of this aunt and her
father was so similar that the two must have a lot in common.
Matilda nodded and said, “I went to the United States after graduating from college.
Some time ago, after my husband passed away, I returned to Aurous Hill with my son to settle down.”
Zoey heard this and couldn’t help sighing, “Oh, then Aunt Matilda.
You and my dad are in basically the same situation, even the timing for going abroad and returning home are the same.
I believe you and my dad must have a lot in common, right?”
