She looked up at Matthew. "You are fine withkeeping it?" Matthew's voice was firm. "One should not dwell on the past but it does not mean you have to wipe out your past completely. Selina, you don't have to throw it away because of me." "Aren't you jealous?" "Silly, I am confident in my capabilities. Why would I be jealous?" Matthew gazed deeply into Selina's eyes. His maturity and good upbringing shone through his gentle words.
Selina could not help but hug Matthew tightly. "You're such an amazing person." It was pleasant to cling onto his waist as Matthew was well-built.
However as she was hugging him, Selina suddenly thought of something.
She glanced up at him and pouted, "Matthew, you don't loveat all." Matthew was flabbergasted. "Why would you say that?" "Other boyfriends get jealous and becconcerned when their partners are on good terms with their ex- boyfriends. But you don't seem to mind it at all," Selina explained with a frown.
She remembered reading a forum post about a lady complaining about her boyfriend, who kept probing into the details of her previous relationship with her ex.
At that time, those who responded to the post defended the boyfriend by saying that it was because he cared about her.
On the other hand, Matthew had never asked anything about her relationship with Dylan. Did it mean that he did not care about her? Selina felt nervous at what she would hear.
Matthew looked at her meaningfully. "Selina, if I keep pestering you about it, wouldn't you be annoyed?" Selina gave it sthought and nodded honestly. "Yes, I would." Given her personality, she would definitely be annoyed to death if Matthew kept asking about her previous relationship with Dylan. "Well, will you be unhappy if I asked you to throw away the pendant?" Selina hesitated for a moment.
"Do you wantto say the truth?" "Yes." "But the answer might offend you." "It's fine. I still prefer to know the truth." Selina decided to be brutally honest. "Yes, I'll be unhappy." It was not because of any lingering feelings for Dylan.
It was because Selina knew that this pendant was not a romantic gesture, but a gift from Dylan with pure intentions.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe just felt that it might be mean to throw a gift away.
On the other hand, she felt that Matthew's feelings would be hurt if she insisted on keeping the pendant. Selina quickly added, "Of course, I will only be a little unhappy. I can throw it away immediately if you wantto. Your feelings are the most important! Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken the initiative to tell you everything." Matthew's eyes lit up with delight at her words, even though he had ssadness in his eyes.
It made him feel that everything he'd done for Selina was worth it.
His gaze interlocked with Selina's. "The reason that I don't ask about it is not because I don't care about you. On the contrary, I care too much for you that I won't do anything to upset you. Everything I do is to make you happy. Do you understandnow that I have explained myself clearly?" Selina was instantly enlightened.
Her heart pounded hard in her chest.
She got misty-eyed. "I understand now. Matthew, you are so good to me." Matthew kissed Selina's forehead. "Don't think too much about it. Dylan will definitely find his own happiness. He has always been a sensible person and I trust that he will move on with time." Selina nodded hard in agreement. "Yes, if I can find my own happiness, he will too." All of a sudden, her troubles and worries vanished.
Selina smiled. "Matthew, I think we can go back now. After talking about it, I feel much better." "Sure, let's go." When she got in the car, she suddenly thought of asking a question regarding Dylan.
"By the way, is Reid really Dylan's father?" At her question, Matthew's face beca little tense.
"Yes.
"He does not act like a father at all. If anything, he loathes Dylan so much to the point where he could kill him. Dylan hates Reid as well. Are they really father and son?" Matthew's eyes darkened. "It is very complicated." "How bad is it?" Selina asked.
Matthew started the engine and drove away quickly, tires screeching.
He gripped the steering wheel and muttered, "Reid claimed that Missha, Dylan's mother had cheated on him with his best friend when she was pregnant with Dylan. Reid was furious. He refused to recognize Dylan as his son and resented both mother and child." Selina was stunned.
She remembered what Missha looked like.
Missha had a gentle and kind disposition.
Selina found it hard to believe that such a woman would cheat on her husband, furthermore while she was pregnant.
"I don't think his mother is such a person," Selina blurted out.
Matthew laughed bitterly.
He whispered under his breath, "I don't believe it either." When Reid and Missha were still together, they had been inseparable. He could see that Missha truly loved Reid with all her heart.
"How did it end up like this?" "Sthings can't really be explained." Selina's thoughts were in turmoil.
"I've always felt that Dylan had a melancholic personality. Was it because of this matter?" "It's possible." Matthew gave Selina a look. "Everyone suffers through adversity in life. This is one of Dylan's burdens to bear. If he manages to rise above it, he will cout of it as a stronger person." Selina nodded and said nothing more.
In the blink of an eye, it was the next day.

Even though it was a Saturday, Matthew had to go to the company to handle sissues that had cropped up. He accidentally woke Selina up as he tried to get out of bed.
She opened her eyes sleepily.
Matthew gave Selina a morning kiss. "It's still early. Go back to sleep." Selina nodded in confusion. "Isn't today the day that we get our marriage certificate?" Matthew broke into laughter. "It's tomorrow, not today." Selina's lips curved into a sweet smile. "Yes, it's tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it."

"You don't have to. Work is important." "You're more important to me." Selina grinned widely, and she replied, "Okay then, old man. See you later."
"Goodbye, my little lady." Matthew reminded, "Sleep well. I will get Exîne to keep breakfast warm so you can eat it after you wake up." "Okay." Selina's face was radiant with happiness, and she tucked herself under the covers.
After all, it was still early, and she needed to catch up on her beauty sleep.
Matthew walked out of the bedroom.
His phone suddenly rang.
Matthew looked at his phone and frowned.
The caller wasn't someone he had expected to hear from.
It was Reid.
