Joycelyn had no choice but to arrange for a female gastroenterologist.
Selina was left alone in the specialist's room, whereas Joycelyn and Matthew were waiting outside.
The gastroenterologist explained that Selina's stomach was bloating due to consuming too much liquid at once.
She prescribed medicine to Selina while asking, "Are you in the livestreaming industry? I've had too many patients risking their health by eating or drinking too much just to get views. I don't understand why you would do this to yourselves."
Outside the specialist room. Joycelyn was staring carefully at Matthew as she asked, "Matthew, are you back together with Selina?"
Matthew murmured, "No."
It was impossible for him to reconcile with Selina. He would never have a place in Selina's heart.
Joycelyn breathed out a sigh of relief.
She said in a lower voice, "Matthew, do you still remember my advice from last time? You should keep a distance from her if you don't want to hurt
yourself."
Matthew laughed wryly.
He pursed his lips and did not say anything in response.
After a short while, Selina walked out.
She was holding the outpatient card as she told them, "I'm getting the medicine."
"I'll help you get it," Matthew immediately offered.
Selina shook her head. "I'll go."
She looked at Joycelyn and said, "Dr. Welmert, I don't know the way, why don't you lead me there?" "How about I go instead?" Matthew insisted.
Selina smiled. "No, I have to go there myself. That's the only way I'll learn."
Matthew was no longer pressed on the issue, thinking that Selina's argument made sense.
Joycelyn then led Selina to collect her medicine.
Selina broke the silence. "Dr. Welmert, I heard that we can't believe everything we see, but now I know that we can't believe everything we hear either."
Joycelyn was a little embarrassed, "Miss Whitlock, I don't know what you mean."
Selina cut straight to the chase. "You planned all of this, didn't you? You deliberately invited me over to the hotel, so that I would misunderstand the relationship between you and Matthew."
Joycelyn tried to remain calm as she held her ground. "Miss Whitlock, I have no idea what you're talking about."
Selina sneered.
She suddenly stopped in her tracks, and so did Joycelyn.
Joycelyn pointed ahead, "Miss Whitlock, we still need to walk further down."
Selina fixed her cold gaze on Joycelyn as she said, "Do you know why I didn't decide to reveal all of this in front of Matthew?"
Joycelyn was startled for a moment and then looked away. "Miss Whitlock, I don't understand what you mean."
Selina smiled. "That's because I want to see what other tricks you have up your sleeves. I'm curious to know how long you plan on putting up this act."
More importantly, Selina did not have any solid evidence against her.
Joycelyn was silent for a moment before she responded, "Miss Whitlock, let's go get your medicine. I really don't know what you're talking about."
The corners of Selina's lips lifted into a mocking smile.
She was indeed really good at acting.
Joycelyn should consider venturing into the acting industry instead.
Natalie received a call from Yvonne.
After exchanging greetings, Yvonne said, "Natalie, I called you to ask for a favor."
"What could I possibly do for you now? You're already doing great, Yvonne," Natalie joked.
Yvonne smiled as well.
"Stop making fun of me. I'm nothing but a mere actress. Unlike you, the wife of a noble family," Yvonne teased.
