Selina stopped breathing for a moment.
She explained, "Matthew, of course, it does. Caroline also admires you very much. Furthermore, both of you are single, so it's perfect for you to be together. Why does it have nothing to do with you?"
Matthew's lips curled up into a mocking smile, and he stared at Selina. "Selina, why did you want to break up with me and return to your ex-lover?"
There was a sudden buzzing in Selina's head.
She wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it out loud.
"Is it because I'm not good enough?"
"Of course not!" Selina blurted out.
Although he had forcefully kissed her several times, it was undeniable that Matthew was one of those one-in-a-million good men that you'll ever see.
"Because you don't love me, and you love your exlover, right?"
Matthew's straightforwardness instantly made Selina felt a little awkward.
Matthew continued to stare into Selina's eyes. "No matter how good your friend is, what does that have to do with me? Just like no matter how good I am, what does it have to do with you?"
Selina felt like her brain was going to explode.
"Get out." Matthew pointed to the door. "Don't you know how dangerous it is for a man and a woman to be alone in a room? You are not a child, so you should understand!"
Selina didn't remember how she walked out of Matthew's office.
She felt her footsteps become unsteady, as if she were stepping on cotton.
Matthew's analogy made her understand instantly.
At first, she had always thought that Matthew would definitely like Caroline. After all, Caroline was both beautiful and outstanding.
But Matthew's words suddenly struck her on the head.
It was just like Matthew, he was a good and excellent man.
However, Dylan was the only one in her heart.
However, she simply couldn't understand something. Her feelings for Dylan had lasted for so many years was because Dylan was her first love.
But she and Matthew...
She had only been together with Matthew for a few days. How could Matthew have such deep feelings for her?
Selina couldn't figure it out. She really couldn't understand why.
Later, she thought of what Tobias had said. Tobias said that she was Matthew's first girlfriend.
Selina thought of this and realized that it might be because of this reason.
All of a sudden, she really despised herself.
How could she have crossed the line so much?
For a moment, Selina was filled with intense guilt.
However, a call from Caroline just had to come at this moment, and she asked about Matthew.
Selina suddenly didn't know what to say.
She felt that she was really an idiot. She hadn't even cleared the situation up, yet she had even gotten her involved in this. How was she going to explain to Caroline now?
Selina made an appointment to have lunch with Caroline.
She apologized to Caroline and told her that she could no longer set her up with Matthew.
"I will no longer impose on others what I'm unwilling to do."
Matthew's words had instantly made her understand.
She wanted to set Caroline up with Matthew, which was like stabbing a knife in his heart.
She has already let Matthew down, so she couldn't continue to go too far.
Upon hearing Selina's words, a deep disappointment flashed across Caroline's face.
"Selina, Matthew isn't interested in me, is he?" Caroline said in a low voice, "He definitely didn't look interested in me. He must have extremely high standards to the point that he had no women by his side for so many years. I reckon that he would only be interested in someone like a goddess."
