They had clearly never been the stype.
By the tthey arrived at the Whitlock family villa, Selina had already fallen asleep.
Her breathing was light as she laid on Natalie's lap.
"Selina, wake up, we're home." Natalie was a little exasperated.
She tried to shrug her awake, but Selina was deep in slumber. She didn't react at all.
"Natalie, you don't need to wake her up. I'll carry her in later," Matthew said.
Natalie was dumbstruck.
"Well then, thank you, Matthew." She nodded after a moment.
If it had been another man who suggested something like that, Natalie definitely would have disagreed.
She couldn't trust other men for they might take advantage of Selina.
However, when it cto Matthew, she was okay with it.
This man was noble and elegant. He did not look like a man who would take advantage of women, so Natalie was at ease. Natalie got out of the car first.
Then, Matthew cradled Selina into his arms.
He found it easy to carry Selina. She was as light as a feather.
He caught a whiff of her scent.

Matthew's gaze hardened.
His eyes fell on Selina's face, who was fast asleep in his arms.
She had soft, pearly skin and voluminous eyelashes. She looked like a Barbie doll.
She had a cute button nose and full, luscious lips.
They were like a soft and plump cherry, luring him in to have a taste.
"Matthew, we're here," Natalie muttered from a distance.
Matthew snapped out of it.
He walked into Selina's room along with Natalie. Slowly setting Selina down onto the bed, he covered her with a blanket.
"Natalie, she might throw up in the middle of the night. You should tell the servants to watch out for her," Matthew suddenly said.
Natalie was stunned.
Natalie would have done that without him even having to say so. However, why would Matthew say that? He didn't seem to be close to Selina.
"You seem to care a lot about Selina," Natalie said, half-jokingly.
Matthew's smirked, his tone matching Natalie's. "She's unmarried, and so am I. Of course I'm concerned about her." Natalie couldn't help but burst into laughter. Search the (F)indwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
She found Matthew to be quite funny.
This man was a friend of Tobias. Both of them were equally outstanding and handsome. However, compared to Tobias, Matthew was not as cold.
Natalie then sent Matthew off on his way.
As he got into the car, Matthew remarked casually, "Natalie, it seems that this husband of yours just might not be qualified enough." Natalie smiled. "In what way?" "He's unqualified, letting you be alone at hthe night before your wedding," Matthew joked.
Natalie did not mind at all, and her tone remained pleasant. "I actually think that makes him even more qualified. He's out there doing overtwork in order to be withafter the wedding. There's nothing bad about that." Matthew grinned, his eyes reflecting his envy. "Natalie, your relationship with Tobias is so strong. You have enough trust for each other." A hint of surprise flashed across Natalie's eyes. "You can tell?" Matthew smiled. "Of course. Go ahead and rest. You're getting married tomorrow." Natalie nodded. "Okay, you too." After Natalie left, Matthew got into the car.
Halfway through his journey back home, he sensed that something was wrong.
Something didn't sit right with him.
Indeed, Tobias was a very busy man. However, based on Matthew's understanding of Tobias, he wouldn't be busy to the point that he was unable to stay with his precious wife the night before their wedding. Matthew made a call to Tobias immediately.
The call was quickly connected.
"Matthew," Tobias said in a low and deep voice.
Hearing that there was nothing strange about Tobias' voice, Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.
"Tobias, are you so busy to the point that you left your poor Natalie alone the night before the wedding?" Matthew teased.
"How did you know?" Matthew smiled and did not answer his question. "You should go hearly. She'll definitely be nervous since she's getting married tomorrow. She needs you to be with her." After a while, Tobias suddenly said: "I have smatters regarding Natalie's background to attend to right now." A look of surprise flashed across Matthew's face. "What could possibly be that urgent?" There was no answer. Suddenly, a beeping sound cfrom the other side of the phone. Matthew tried to call Tobias once more, but to no avail.
In the middle of the night, Natalie got up to check up on Selina.
She was sound asleep, and she didn't throw up.
Natalie was relieved and went back to sleep. As she drifted off, she had a dream.
She dreamt that she was married to Tobias.
Just like the grand finale of a TV show, it froze on that scene.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNatalie grinned.
She woke up at the break of dawn.
Natalie was in a good mood and began to prepare breakfast.
Cecilia got up a little later. She was very surprised to see Natalie making breakfast. "Natalie, you are getting married today! Why are you still! preparing breakfast? Just let the servants do it." Natalie shook her head with a smile. "Auntie, I can't sleep anyway. I can just prepare breakfast for everyone. When Tobias comes hlater, he can have the breakfast I made."
Speaking of this, she was a little embarrassed. "This might just be the last meal loook before I get married to Tobias." Upon hearing Natalie's words, Cecilia smiled along with her. "Well, it's nice that you're so thoughtful." Hayden and Selina got up one after another.
Meanwhile, Tobias still hadn't returned home.
Cecilia felt uneasy and made a phone call to Tobias, but no one answered.
Cecilia grew even more anxious.
Natalie comforted Cecilia, "Auntie, don't worry. He might be driving." Selina swiftly interrupted, "Why are you still calling her Auntie? You should be calling her Mom now, Natalie." Natalie's face turned a deep shade of red.
Cecilia patted Natalie's hand. "It's okay. The wedding hasn't been held yet." Natalie took a deep breath. "The wedding is coming up, Mom. I'll start addressing you like that now." Cecilia was slightly stunned.
After a moment, she smiled. "Good girl." Selina was beaming with them.
"Aunt, will Natalie call Grandma Mom from now on?" Hayden questioned as he tugged at Selina's hands.
"That's right." "What about me? What should I call Natalie?" He blinked his big round eyes.
"Of course you should call her Mom too, you little dummy." Selina gently poked his forehead.
Hayden immediately covered his eyes with his hands. "I'm too shy." His behavior made everyone laugh.
It was already eight- thirty. Tobias still hadn't returned home, and any calls to him couldn't get through.
"What's wrong with my brother? It's one thing for him not to have cm back hlast night, but it's his wedding day! Why hasn't he cback yet?" Selina complained. Cecilia called Tobias again, but no one answered.
