Hold on, what was she even laughing about?
Now that Matthew was in a relationship with another woman, was there any point for her to laugh like this after a phone call with him?
Selina became frustrated.
A little later, Cecilia also arrived at the Perry family villa. She decided to accompany Peter on a walk, but he rejected her offer.
He reasoned that the Perry family villa had beautiful scenery that he enjoyed looking at, so why would he go somewhere else?
The beautiful scenery mentioned by Peter was the Perry family's vegetable garden.
Not to mention, he had already ordered the servants to move a chair to the vegetable garden. He simply sat there and enjoyed looking at the vegetables in the garden with a satisfied smile on his face.
Cecilia and Selina felt helpless.
In the end, Peter even said, "We should get rid of the garden in the Whitlock family villa in the United States. It must be done before I return. We'll plant it full with vegetables instead!"
Cecilia was speechless.
So was Selina.
They really thought that replacing the Whitlock family villa's garden in the United States with a vegetable patch was a hilarious idea.
Caroline specially asked for leave for the whole morning.
She wanted to look for someone.
It was a good idea to send a private detective to follow Selina. For example, she could get some important information from the detective.
Selina had almost been sexually assaulted.
It happened after she met with a young man in the park.
The private detective mentioned that the young man who was always with Selina didn't have any intimate relationship with her at all. They were just normal friends. Therefore, Caroline didn't pay much attention to that young man.
What caught her attention was Matthew, the one who had saved Selina from that awful situation.
Matthew had fired a shot at Zobby, the man who was going to sexually assault Selina.
Zobby was not dead yet, and he had been sent to prison.
However, all this wasn't the point.
The point was that he had a wife, Nadia. She was ugly and fat, but she had a unique skill.
This time, Caroline had come to look for her.
Carolina arrived at a dilapidated alley and stopped in front of a house. She knocked on the door lightly.
"Who is it? " A woman's impatient voice was heard.
Caroline didn't say anything and continued knocking on the door.
The door opened this time.
A greasyc, fat face appeared in front of Caroline.
She was Nadia Lanes, the person that Caroline was looking for.
"Who are you?" Nadia looked at Caroline suspiciously. "Is something the matter?"
Caroline answered, "I'm looking for you!"
The doubt in Nadia's eyes deepened.
"I don't know you." Just as she was about to close the door, Caroline stopped her immediately.
"You...!" Anger surfaced in Nadia's eyes.
Caroline looked straight at her and said, "Your husband is in jail, isn't he?"
Nadia was startled.
She looked at Caroline from head to toe and deduced that this woman must be a part of the upper class.
Her heart skipped a beat.
She was here because of that thing, wasn't she?
"He's in jail now, so I'm not related to him anymore. If you need something, don't come looking for me!" Nadia exclaimed in panic.
At first, she had wanted to find Selina and Matthew, who had shot her husband and sent him to jail, to settle with them. However, after she found out what their backgrounds were, she could only let go of the hatred in her heart.
After all, she could not afford to offend people like that.
