Matthew's lips curled up slightly before walking over.
"Natalie." He first greeted Natalie, and then his gaze fell onto Selina's face. "Selina." Natalie was the first to look at Matthew. "Matthew, it's you." She was a little surprised to see him.
Natalie hadn't seen many of Tobias' friends, but she was particularly impressed by Matthew, and she liked him quite a lot.
"Why are you here?" Matthew asked.
His gaze vaguely fell on Selina.
"Why not? Is it your place?" Selina snapped at him aggressively.
She was already in a very bad mood that day. Not to mention, she had been spoiled since young in a family like hers. Thus, she never had any restraint when she spoke. Matthew was not angry at all.
His tone carried a hint of amusement. "Yes, this is my place. I own this mall." Selina was speechless.
She was a little angry. "Well, even if it is yours, the shopping mall also welcomes customers, right? Can't Natalie and I chere?" Search the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Natalie was a little embarrassed when she heard that.
Matthew had only cto greet them, but Selina ended up replying to him so rudely.
Natalie was afraid that Matthew would be displeased. Fortunately, Matthew was not offended in the slightest. He looked at Selina with a smile. "You're right, that's why the mall welcomes you. If you needto, I'll ask my staff to hang a banner at the entrance of the mall that says 'Welcome, Miss Selina Whitlock'." Selina was speechless again.
She then gritted her teeth. "I don't want to talk anymore. I can't win against you. You're older than me, so of course you're better with your words." Matthew had nothing to say.
Natalie was the same.
Natalie was at a bit of a loss for words. Matthew wasn't even that old, he still looked handsand gentle. "I should be the one who can't win against you." Matthew was somewhat speechless.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhile Selina was not paying attention, Natalie whispered in Matthew's ear, "Matthew, Selina's not in a good mood today. Don't mind her." Matthew's gaze wavered a little.
"Why don't we go and have a drink?" he suddenly suggested.
Hearing that, Selina instantly cheered up. "Sure, drinking is the best. Let's go." At that moment, what she wanted most was to drink. Only by drinking could she not think about anything. Honestly, Natalie wasn't really that keen. After all, it was already tto go home, but since Selina wanted to go, it was best if she followed. After all, Selina must be very upset. Perhaps it would be good for her to get drunk for once.
"Then I'll go with you," Natalie said to Selina.
However, Selina refused immediately.
"We're going to drink," Selina said.
"I know, I'll drink with you guys too," Natalie replied.
She had a high alcohol tolerance anyway, so she didn't mind accompanying Selina for a drink.
She was experienced too. She knew that people wanted to drink when they were sad, and they would want someone to accompany them too.
"Natalie, you can't drink." Selina had a serious expression.
"Why not?" "You have to prepare for pregnancy." Natalie did not know what to say.
She felt a little awkward. "I... I don't have plans for that yet." After she and Tobias had gotten married, neither of them had any plans to get children. They decided to leave it all to fate, and both wouldn't mind if they had a child or not. Either way, she was already satisfied with Hayden alone.
Selina shook her head. "Natalie, having a daughter and a son is the best possible outcome, so you have to prepare from now on. You can't drink a drop of alcohol from now on." Natalie was at a loss for words again.
In the end, under Selina's stubborn insistence, Natalie had to give up the idea of going drinking with them. Regardless, she wasn't concerned about Matthew.
If Selina were to go and drink with other men in such a sad state, Natalie would definitely not allow that to happen.
After all, it was extremely easy for girls to be taken advantage under such vulnerab circumstances.
However, Natalie wasn't worried about Matthew at all.
Although she hadn't interacted with him much, she believed that Matthew was a true gentleman, and he would never take advantage of Selina.
After that, Matthew led Selina to his car.
Selina didn't seem to be in a good mood.
At that moment, she had just one desire. She wanted to drink. She wanted to drink to her heart's content, until she was drunk.
"Old man, where are you takingto drink?" Selina asked casually.
Matthew's mouth twitched upon hearing that.
He felt a little helpless.
He didn't really like the fact that she was addressing him like that, but since Selina wanted to, then he would let it slide.
"My house," Matthew said.
Selina was stunned into silence.
She looked at Matthew in shock. "Are you kidding me?" Going to a man's house to drink? "Are you scared?" Matthew's deep gaze fell onto Selina's face as he raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
Selina paused for a moment.
She felt that Matthew's eyes looked provocative, as if he was calling her a coward.
"My house has a lot of precious wine," Matthew added.
"Fine, fine. I'll go." Selina cracked. "I'm not afraid of you." Who was she? If she was not willing to, who would be able to take advantage of her? The car drove to a mansion.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSelina didn't know much about Matthew, but he knew that since he was Tobias' friend, he must be quite rich.
Nevertheless, when she arrived at Matthew's mansion, she discovered that Matthew was more wealthy than she had imagined.
However, Selina didn't care about that at all.
What truly surprised her was that Matthew was quite tasteful.
The mansion was mainly decorated with black and white as the main theme, but it was hot monotonous or rigid at all. Instead, it looked elegant and luxurious. Matthew hadn't lied to her. Sure enough, in his living room, there was a big cabof wine occupying an entire wall.
Taking a look at it, it was true that there was both expensive and rare wine.
"Can I drink whatever?" Selina asked while staring at Matthew.
"Yes. Be my guest." His tone was clear and refreshing.
"Wouldn't I be wasting your money?" "For you, it's fine." There was a hidden meaning in Matthew's tone.
Nonetheless, Selina couldn't sense anything, or perhaps she couldn't understand in her current state of mind.
Her mind was filled with alcohol right then. She just wanted to have a good drink.
Upon drinking, Selina found that Matthew was looking at her without drinking any himself, which made Selina a little irritated.
Drinking with others meant that they had to compete over who could drink more, and who would get more NO. drunk. However, right then, what was the meaning of Matthew just looking at her without drinking? Selina raised her glass. "Matthew, why aren't you drinking? Let's drink together!" "A proper man doesn't drink." Matthew stared at Selina, his gaze deep and bright.
His voice was very pleasant, sounding hoarse and magnetic, yet not frivolous at all! "So you mean that you're a very proper man?" Selina asked with a frown. X
