Selina walked over and deliberately asked in a light and pleasant tone, "What are you guys talking about?"
She knew that Cecilia was still unhappy with her decision about Matthew, so she tried her best to be cheery and positive around Cecilia in hopes that it would lift her mood.
Cecilia drew in a sharp breath.
Judging by Selina's appearance, it seemed that she was not aware of the news yet.
Cecilia immediately reacted, "Selina, you haven't seen Norwell for a long time. Let's go and see him now, he looks more adorable with each passing day."
When Selina saw the change in Cecilia's attitude she was thrilled.
"Has mother finally agreed?" Selina thought excitedly.
She immediately smiled and nodded, "Okay, Mom, let's go and see Norwell."
Cecilia signaled to Natalie.
Natalie immediately understood.
She said, "Mom, I still have some work to do, you and Selina can go and see Norwell without me."
Natalie went to her bedroom and made a call to Tobias.
Tobias had just seen the news.
He said, "Natalie, the media reporter who initially reported this news refused to take it down, they were very adamant about this. It seems that I have to visit them personally."
Natalie was surprised.
"How could this be?" she asked.
This kind of media reporters would normally swim with the tides. If someone with high authority really requested it, they would definitely withdraw the news immediately.
Tobias's tone lowered, "It is possible that the media reporter has a grudge against Matthew or there is someone acting behind the scenes. Don't worry, I'll handle the news, but what's more troublesome is that the news has already started to spread."
Natalie's face flashed with worry, "Tobias, are you saying that it might not be possible to suppress this?"
"The news can be taken down, but it might not be possible to subdue the situation anymore," Tobias was straightforward.
"Even with you and Matthew working together?" Natalie was not quite convinced.
Matthew and Tobias were the two most powerful men in Agaphen City, was it possible that even they could not suppress this?
"The news is spreading too quickly," Tobias said, "You'd better try to comfort Selina, she must have heard about this already."
"She doesn't know yet, she just came here," Natalie answered.
Tobias was surprised.
The news had already spreaded so rapidly yet Selina was still unaware of this.
He quickly understood what was going on.
It seemed that Selina was in low spirits, so she didn't have the energy to care about what was happening around her, hence her ignorance toward the matter.
"Mom wants to hide it from Selina," Natalie added.
"You can't hide it for long," Tobias reasoned with her, "She'll know about this sooner or later, try to comfort her when the time comes. Natalie, I will deal with this matter."
"All right," Natalie replied.
Caroline looked at the news on the Internet with a smile on her lips.
Selina's reputation was completely tarnished.
Humans would always empathize with the victim of injustice.
As for Matthew's incident, many married women empathized with Saoirse and treated Selina as a home-wrecker.
The whole Internet was filled with curses towards Selina.
"The daughter of the Whitlock family is Selina, I think her brother is Tobias, I can't believe she acted so shamelessly," someone wrote on the Internet.
