He said, "Selina, you have to remember that no matter what has happened up to this moment, I've always truly wanted to be with you."
He gazed at Selina. One could clearly feel deep love in his eyes.
Selina's thick and long eyelashes fluttered.
At that moment, a phone rang.
The call was from Natalie.
She'd arrived at the hospital early in the morning, but hadn't seen Selina and Matthew, so she'd made a phone call hurriedly.
After hanging up on the call with Natalie, Matthew said to Selina, "It was Natalie. We met in the hospital last night. About what happened..."
He paused for a while and said in a deeper voice, "she knows all about it."
"You told her?" Selina immediately asked.
"Yes." Matthew's eyes were deep, "Selina, you've always liked to hide everything at the bottom of your heart. Perhaps it would be nice if there was someone who could comfort you. Natalie and you are good friends. You can talk to her about many things."
Selina pressed her lips together and didn't say anything.
After being silent for a long time, she looked at Matthew and said, "Will she be coming later? Let's have a meal together. I'm hungry now anyway."
Matthew, Selina and Natalie arrived at a five-star buffet restaurant.
After they'd set down their things, Matthew stood up and said, "Both of you just have a seat. I'll go and take anything you want to eat."
"It's up to you." Selina's voice sounded weak.
Natalie smiled politely at Matthew, "Matthew, just something light will do. As for the rest, it's up to you."
"All right."
After Matthew left, Natalie's gaze fell upon Selina's face. She said with deep pain in her tone, "Selina, why didn't you tell me?"
Selina's gaze slightly moved.
After a while, she said in a low voice, "How could I tell you? At that time, all of you kept saying that Matthew was great, and didn't even allow me to say anything bad about him. Tell me, how was I supposed to tell you?"
"Matthew is indeed a great person." Natalie said.
It was true. Matthew was absolutely top-notch in terms of both appearance and character, that was why the whole Whitlock family had been hoping that Selina could be together with Matthew.
"Look, you're doing it again!" Selina looked at Natalie.
Natalie was speechless.
She changed the topic, "Selina, did you really not have any feelings for Matthew when you married him?"
"No." Selina replied simply.
At that time, she had been filled with hatred when she married Matthew. How could she have any feelings for him?
Natalie's heart skipped a beat.
She initially held some hope, but now, Selina had smashed it to pieces.
She sighed softly, "Selina, you're not a child anymore, how can you be so silly? Marriage is neither a child's game nor a joke. How could you casually marry someone with the intention of wanting to take revenge?"
Natalie paused for a moment and her tone was full of helplessness, "And this was when you hadn't even figured out the truth of what happened!"
Natalie's words made Selina feel regret.
At that time, she had indeed been silly.
If she had had a proper discussion with Matthew and Dylan, the truth would definitely have been revealed.
However, she didn't say anything. Instead, she had created such a huge misunderstanding!
Selina lowered her head and stirred the coffee with a spoon. She'd originally wanted to take a sip, but she had accidentally put the spoon into her mouth instead.
She just bit the spoon.
