In the blink of an eye, they had arrived at the Whitlock family house.
Selina's legs went numb again as she got off the car.
Matthew chuckled, "You're still drunk, would you liketo carry you?" He said in a relaxed tone.
Selina shook his head. "No it's fine, I can walk by myself." They chatted as they walked into the villa together.
"Honestly, I'm afraid to see my mother now. She's as fierce as a tiger." "I always thought that Madam Lawson was very gentle and kind." Selina laughed bitterly, "That's how she is towards you, or you could say that my mother was very kind in the past. Since our divorce, my mother has changed into a different person. She is now fierce and intimidating." "Selina, your mother is really concerned about you too." "I understand," she said with a heavy sigh.
While it was understandable that she worried, having someone constantly nagging in your ear could be really irritating.
Natalie was standing at the door of the villa, waiting for Selina.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie was surprised when she saw that Matthew had ctoo.
"Matthew, you're here too?" She exclaimed.
Matthew nodded. "Long tno see, Natalie." "Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time." After that, she turned to look at Selina.
Selina immediately pulled Natalie to the side. "What's wrong Natalie?" Natalie said, "You better cprepared this time. Your mother will definitely be asking for an answer this time. Being hasty and dismissive will not work this time. I chere just to remind you." Selina's heart skipped a beat.
She nodded. "Okay, I understand." "It's good that you understand." Natalie turned to Matthew again. "Matthew, let's go in together." Cecilia was also a little shocked when she saw Matthew. She had been expecting Selina to calone, but since he was there, she figured that she might as well clear things up once and for all.
Cecilia asked Matthew and Selina to take a seat on the sofa.
"Matthew, Selina, both of you haven't got your marriage certificate yet," Cecilia went straight to the point.
Neither Matthew nor Selina said a word.
Cecilia continued, "I don't know what is going on in both your heads. Coming here together proves that the two of you are with each other, so why don't you get your marriage certificate? Peter is pesteringto make you hold a wedding ceremony. I know that many young people nowadays don't bother to have a wedding ceremony, but even then, you still need to get a marriage certificate. Otherwise, I won't accept it." Selina couldn't help but whisper under her breath, "Earlier on you told us not to get a marriage certificate, and now you're urging us to get it." Cecilia immediately turned to Selina. "What did you just say?!" Selina could feel her mother intensely glaring as she said, "Mom, were you not againstand Matthew getting a marriage certificate? You were stalling before when we wanted to get the marriage certificate. Why have you changed your mind now?" "That was before. I was worried that you might just be fooling around. But now that you're still with Matthew, you must get it. Or else, you shouldn't be together." Cecilia's attitude was very domineering. "Madam Lawson, I'm sorry. It's me." Just as Matthew opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Selina, "Letspeak." Selina had guessed what Matthew would say.
He had always been honest, so she reckoned that he intended on telling Cecilia the truth at this moment.
It would be disastrous if he told the truth.
"I'm going to have a talk to Matthew for a while. If we think it's suitable, we will go get it when tcomes." Selina lied. Search the FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Cecilia beceven angrier. "What is this nonsense? You still want to discuss?" "Of course mom. Haven't you heard that there are people who try to live together before marriage? If you're not aware of that, it only proves that you are too old-fashioned Cecilia's face turned green. "Whether I'm old-fashioned or not, you and Matthew must givean answer today. Stop making more arguments, you have been delaying for a long time!" Natalie said softly, "Mom, young people have their own things to deal with." Cecilia saw red. She was so angry that she almost turned on Natalie. "Natalie, stop speaking out for them You were always convincingto let them go and see how things turned out. It has been so long and they have yet to get their marriage certificate?" Natalie did not dare to utter a single word any longer.
Cecilia once again turned her attention to Selina. "Selina, givean answer." She gulped nervously.
At this moment, Matthew opened his mouth and spoke, "Madam, tomorrow." Ripples flashed across Cecilia's eyes.
She turned to look at Matthew, "Tomorrow?" "That's right, tomorrow." Matthew opened his thin lips.

"Madam, I am certain. It is my fault. I should have given you an explanation at the start. I should have. given you assurance when you gave your daughter to me." Selina felt a little uneasy. She wanted to say something but Matthew stopped her with his hands.
Matthew gave Selina a look.
Selina thought about it and decided to not say anything.
Cecilia's anger faded after Matthew told her that she would have an answer by tomorrow.
She nodded. "That's good. The faster you get the certificate the faster you will be at peace, right?" She immediately asked the servant to serve sfruits and coffee. "Everyone, eat something. Don't just stand there chatting."
Selina muttered, "I didn't get to eatany food before because you were not satisfied. But now that you are, αν you're allowing the servant to bring everything." Cecilia was rendered speechless for a beat or two. She glared at Selina. "Were you starving? We were just settling simportant matters just now." "Mom, I think you've really changed," Selina sighed, "you are no longer the gentle Mom you were in the past." "You forcedto change. I'm constantly worried about you. It would be great if you were more like your brother!" Selina stuck out her tongue and said, "Con, he used to let you worry more. Did you forget?" Cecilia was a little embarrassed.
She waved her hand and said, "Let's not talk about the past. I will be at peace as long as you and Matthew get your marriage certificate." As it was getting dark, Cecilia wanted Matthew and Selina to stay the night.

"It's not very convenient to drive back.
Why not just stay here? There are so many bedrooms anyway. I have also asked people to clean your bedroom Selina replied, "Many doyou feally want meland Matthew to stay here, or do you want to take the opportunity to find out if we are together?" Cecilia gave Selina a look and said, "Look at you now. You are talking nonsense. You and Matthew coming here together today already proved the point." Matthew said, "Thank you, Madam Lawson. Selina and I will stay here tonight." Attention Young Guys* Cecilia's expression softened as she turned to Matthew. "Okay, have a good rest tonight."
