Confusion flashed across Selina's eyes. "I really can't remember. He just looks so familiar, but nothing comes to mind at all."
Natalie patted her shoulder and comforted her, saying, "Don't push yourself too hard. Every time that man comes, he only looks into the villa from the outside, and has done nothing so far, so don't worry too much about it."
It was also for that reason that Natalie was yet to inform Tobias about the matter.
Ever since Remington's incident back then, Natalie knew how much stress Tobias was enduring. She didn't want to put him under so much pressure again.
In her eyes, the mysterious man who appeared around the house might not be a big deal. Perhaps he was just curious to see what the Whitlock family's villa looked like.
Selina smiled. "I know. You too, Natalie. It's definitely not a big deal. Who knows, maybe he's just interested to see what the Whitlock family is like. You shouldn't think too much about it as well."
Her words of comfort were really similar to what
Natalie was thinking.
Natalie smiled too. "Well, have fun with Hayden for today, then. I'll wait for you at home."
"Sure." Selina nodded, bid Natalie farewell and turned around to go downstairs.
As soon as she turned around, the smile on her face disappeared as it morphed into a face full of worry.
If the mysterious man who lingered near the villa wasn't familiar to her, and if it weren't for Caroline who had appeared on the footage, she would've thought the same way as Natalie.
However, right then...
Her eyes gleamed with a flash of light.
What on earth was going on?
She was wondering if Caroline was up to something again, and pondered whether she should go and look for her or not.
Just as she was walking down the stairs with a head full of thoughts, Matthew was already waiting for her in the living room.
He was the only one there. Peter and Hayden were nowhere to be seen.
Selina looked around and asked, "Where are they?"
Matthew smiled helplessly. "Hayden said that his baseball cap didn't look good enough, so he asked Grandpa to pick one for him."
Selina was speechless.
No wonder Natalie had mentioned that Hayden would take a while to get ready.
She couldn't help but mock him. "That brat is really shameless and self-obsessed."
Matthew chuckled. "Everyone wants to look good. You're the same."
Selina raised her eyebrows. "Am I?"
"Of course, look, you've dressed up beautifully too," he answered as he sized Selina up.
She then looked down at the sportswear that she was wearing.
She had just casually picked a set of sportswear from her closet without even caring if it looked good or not. She wasn't trying to dress up.
Selina proved her innocence hurriedly, saying, "I didn't wear this to look nice, I just picked an outfit randomly."
"Is that so?" Matthew's tone suddenly sounded as if it had a hidden meaning. "Then I guess my little girl looks really gorgeous regardless of what she's wearing."
Selina blushed after Matthew called her that.
At the same time, Peter and Hayden walked down
the stairs.
Hayden looked especially handsome wearing a black and white baseball cap.
As soon as he walked down, he asked Selina, 'Aunt, does my baseball cap look good?"
Selina squeezed out a smile. "It's alright."
Hayden felt dejected.
He then turned to Matthew. "Mr. Perry, does my cap look good?"
"It looks great." Matthew's smile was like a spring breeze.
His words cheered Hayden up at once.
