Matthew's gaze unfocused for a moment.
"Your friend showeda photograph of you and Dylan." He did not elaborate more on this.
Emotions were seen in Selina's eyes.
It was just as she had thought. If Caroline knew that she and Dylan had hugged during their breakup in this amusement park, she would definitely have informed Matthew about it.
Her voice deepened as she spoke, "I can't believe Caroline took photos. She actually took pictures! Have you ever askedabout this?" S~EaRch the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
She wasn't sure if he had asked her before.
Matthew's eyes darkened, "I don't remember if I did." "Oh, okay." She gave it a moment's thought and promptly turned to him with a serious look on her face. "Well, since you don't remember askingabout it, then I feel I owe you an explanation in this. This is where I and Dylan broke up, and we did hug then. I'm guessing the picture you've seen was of that moment." Matthew had a cold look on him.
His eyes were cold too.
Selina's tone beceven more solemn, "But that was just a formal hug to say goodbye. Matthew, I swear to you that I no longer have feelings for Dylan. That was just a goodbye hug and nothing more. I swear, if I still loved Dylan, I would not have allowed..." Matthew covered her mouth.
Selina's eyes grew big.

She said softly, "All is good as long as you trust me." Matthew fell into deep thought.
Moments later, he abruptly changed the subject. "Selina, has that friend of yours ever done anything to hurt you?" Her mention of Caroline had brought Matthew back to his memories of this person.
His attention had been so distracted by the pain the picture of Dylan and Selina brought to him that it had caused him to neglect the other things that were happening.
Such as the obvious intention that Caroline had when she handed him that photo.
And most importantly, how she'd managed to snap such a photo.
Had she just happened to run into both of them? Could there truly be such a coincidence? Meanwhile, Selina held her breath.
Hurt her? Honestly, there had been such occasions as the twhen Caroline had told her about Matthew and Jenna kissing in the office. She had also purposely provoked her multiple times. She took a long pause before she uttered, "No." Those were all trivial matters after all. Moreover, she was the one who had hurt her first.
Matthew heaved a sigh of relief, "Selina, I don't know how she managed to take that photo." His statement made her hold her breath again.
On the contrary, she already had a rough idea on how Caroline did it.
In the beginning when Caroline had called her out and mocked her about Selina hugging Dylan in the amusement park, Selina had thought that Caroline had just coincidentally bumped into them. However, after Matthew' mentioned that Caroline had shown him pictures, she was beginning to think that this matter may not be as simple as that.
Thinking back to the man wandering by the gate of her villa, and Caroline's brief appearance there, she seemed to have realized something.
"I don't know either. Butthat misunderstanding led her to have a false understanding of my character. No matter how hard I tried explaining it to her, she just wouldn't take it," said Selina in a blunt manner. "You've tried explaining it before?" asked Matthew.
She nodded her head as she replied, "Yes, several times, but, she refuse to believe me. I figured that she never will regardless of anything I say." "I'll go and talk to her about this." She shook her head, "Forget it. If you do that, she will certainly overthink it. Just let her be, Matthew." "I fear that she might hurt you." Selina forced out a smile. "It's not a big deal. I guess she just wanted to break us up by taking that photo and showing it to you. That's all." Matthew pondered on this for a moment and decided, "I'll get my HR department to terminate her employment with us on Monday." He did not like bringing his personal matters to his work. It had been the first tthat Caroline had clooking for him to show him the picture, so he did not take any action on her.
However, after his talk with Selina, he couldn't help but feel like he had to prepare himself. Although Selina had a point, he was still afraid that Caroline might hurt her. He had to put on his guard.
It took her stbut she ended up agreeing to his idea.
"Perhaps Caroline will return to the United States after being fired by the Perry Group. That would be the best situation." She thought.
"Okay," she said to Matthew.
She didn't forget to add a few more words, "Just terminate her employment, but don't do anything else. After all, she hasn't really harmed me, and I was the one who wronged her first." A complicated look flashed in Matthew's pitch-black eyes.
He nodded after a while, "Alright." Minutes later, Peter and Hayden showed up.
As soon as Hayden walked out of the ride, he winked at Selina, making her confused.
After that, Peter brought Hayden to get a Coke.

Just after Hayden finished his cup of Coke, he turned to Selina and said, "Aunt Selina, Selina, I'm going to buy smore later. It was great-grandfather who bought this for me. You're gettinganother cup later." Selina's surprise lasted a few moments.
She playfully poked his forehead saying, "What are you thinking? Drinking one cup after another." Hayden then stood on the tip of his toes and whispered, "Aunt Selina, I saw you and Mr. Perry kissing just now. He was holding the back of your head while you..." "I'll buy it for you, my little rascal." Selina interrupted him.
He gave her a smug smile in return.
Selina turned over and hit Matthew.
Matthew was confused.
Selina moved closer towards him, lowered her voice and hissed, "This is m all your fault! Hayden saw, as just now. He saw us doing you-know-what. Now I have to buy him a Coke!" Matthew was speechless. He then bursted into laughter.
"Then I'll go get it."
Selina gulped at his reply, "It's not about the Coke. The point is that Hayden sa use That's so sav embarrassing. What if he tells it to my sister-in-law and my brother?" He smiled as he looked at her, "That would be perfect. Let them know that our relationship is going great. This way, they can stop worrying." She was speechless.
Yet, after giving sthought to it, she realized what he said was logical.
Both Natalie and Tobias had not believed in their relationship. Maybe they would after Hayden told them about this! A whole day went by and they returned to the Whitlock family's villa together at night.
Meanwhile, Brennan made a phone call to Caroline.
She didn't expect that he would get the mobile number of the one who was receiving information from the wiretap in such a short time.
