Selina was stunned.
She was aware of this as well.
"Forget it, I'll just go in so that I won't have to hear Matthew say that I didn't give him the respect he deserves when I'm the one delivering the gift to him," she thought to herself.
Selina followed Matthew into the main hall.
She sat on the sofa and put her belongings aside.
"What do you want to drink?" Matthew asked Selina.
"I'm fine with anything." Selina's words were concise.
Matthew went to make a cup of cappuccino.
When the drink was given to Selina, her eyes inexplicably fell on Matthew's hand.
He had pretty hands with defined joints.
She suddenly replayed the memory of when his hand had held hers only moments ago...
Selina cursed herself silently. What nonsense was she thinking about? Selina took the cup, and then her eyes flashed in surprise. "How did you know that I like to drink cappuccino?" Cappuccino was indeed her favorite drink.
Matthew's eyes darkened slightly. "Young ladies like this type of drink." She heaved a sigh. "It's a pity that I'm no longer a young lady." In her opinion, a young lady was someone under the age of twenty.
Tflies. When she first met Natalie, she wasn't even 20 years old. How is it that in the blink of an eye, Hayden had already grown so much, and she was so old? "Selina, I've always seen you as a young lady." Matthew's voice was low and magnetic. "The syoung lady wearing a skirt at sixteen." Selina was slightly stunned.

Even she had forgotten about it. She hadn't expected that he would still remember.
"Matthew, how cyou have such a deep impression of me?" Selina asked as she took a sip of the cappuccino. Matthew smiled and did not say anything.
Meanwhile, Selina had already finished her cappuccino. She then stood up and declared, "I'm going to leave now. You can open the gift and take a look at it. It's a token of sincerity from my family." "Is it a token of sincerity from you, then?" Matthew gazed at Selina with his pair of deep eyes.
"Yes, it's a token of sincerity fromas well," said Selina.
Since it was the Whitlock family's sincerity, naturally it would include her too.
Matthew picked up the paper bag just as Selina was about to leave.
The sound of an electrical buzzing cfrom behind her.
Selina was shocked.
"Selina, is this your sincerity?" the man's voice said meaningfully, "Unfortunately, it is unsuitable forto use. Perhaps, it would be more suitable for you?" Selina whipped her head around and then froze.
F*ck, what on earth was that? Matthew was holding something in his hand. It was twisting as it vibrated in Selina's direction, which was absolutely terrifying.
Even if Selina had never used it before, she instantly knew what that was! Hadn't Peter given his work of calligraphy as a gift? How had it turned into a female adult toy? Selina rushed over and grabbed it. "No, this isn't it. You've gotten it wrong." There was a devious glint in Matthew's eyes. "Are you that eager to play with it forto the point where you even have to snatch it away?" Selina was speechless.
No matter how thick-skinned she was, there was no way she could have prevented the furious blush that had spread across her face. "No, it's a misunderstanding, the gift I meant to pass to you wasn't this." "If not this, then what is it? Hm?" Matthew's voice turned hoarse and his eyes were thick with desire. He was like a hungry, savage beast, crouched and ready to attack at any time.
Selina stuffed the giant buzzing monstrosity into the paper bag to get it out of sight.
She took a deep breath and said, "The thing that I was sent to deliver was a work of calligraphy. It was my grandfather's work, definitely not this thing!" "Calligraphy?" Selina desperately nodded. "Yes, calligraphy!" "Does that mean that this isn't what Mr. Whitlock intended to give me?" "Of course!" How could Peter possibly give something like this to Matthew? "Mm," Matthew drawled. "If it wasn't Mr. Whitlock, then I reckon it's you who wanted to give it to me." Selina was at a loss for words.
Her face turned redder. "It wasn'teither!" How could she possibly have given this kind of thing to Matthew, unless she was out of her mind? "Oh." Matthew seemed as if realization had suddenly dawned upon him. "Does that mean you took the wrong gift?" Selina was stunned for a while, then nodded vigorously.

That's right, she had taken the wrong thing. That must be it She did not know where or how, but she must have taken the wrong package.
"You mistook your belongings for the work of calligraphy and gave it to me." A playful glint flashed in Matthew's eyes. "Selina, you don't need this, actually. If you need it, I can help you." After he said that, he took a step closer. Selina could feel his body heat radiating towards her, mixed with the scent of hormones.
Selina's brain suddenly felt high-strung.
As Matthew's handsface got closer, her heartbeat steadily increased.
After a moment, she immediately pushed Matthew away.
Matthew had not anticipated her reaction, so when she pushed him, he was thrown aside.
Selina desperately ran out.
It was so embarrassing. She had never been so embarrassed in her whole life, to the point that she almost wanted to cry.
Not long after she had run out of the Perry family residence, she was tailed by a car.
The car drove right next to her.
The window was rolled down, revealing Matthew's handsface. "Selina, get in the car. I'll give you a ride." "As if I would get in your car." Selina's face was completely flushed.
How could she stand to get into Matthew's car? She felt embarrassed to the core.
"Con, I won't tease you anymore." Matthew's voice was low.

He didn't know how she had ended up with that object, but he knew for it sure that it couldn't be hers, and that she definitely would not have given it to him. He had not meant what he said, and had merely been joking.
He had not expected Selina to have such a strong response.
Meanwhile, Selina slowed to a stop, and Matthew's car followed suit.
Selina glared at Matthew. "From now on, you're not allowed to follow me. If you keep followingi'll run straight into your car. Mark my words, for I'm a woman of my word. I'm going to leave in three, two, one. Don't follow me!" Immediately after that, she ran away. A helpless look crossed Matthew's eyes.
She really was a young lady! Selina arrived home.
She pondered for a long tas to how that object had managed to end up in her hands.
She would have to start from the beginning to trace its source.
It had all started from Cecilia. The box meant to be passed to him had cfrom her.
Cold shivers went down Selina's spine.
That thing was meant for women's use, so Peter couldn't possibly have used it. Could it have been Cecilia's then?! Selina shivered.
How could that be possible? She simply couldn't believe that her gentle, graceful mother would use such a thing.
What's more, Rudopth was still strong and should be able to satisfy her mother...
Selina's thoughts becdirtier the more she thought about it, and it was so bad that she found herself unable to look Cecelia straight in the eye. Cecelia was thoroughly confused as she observed Selina's actions.
glook "Selina, what's wrong with you? Did you deliver the gift to Matthew?" Selina didn't know what to say.
If she said she hadn't, Cecilia would definitely ask for the reason.
How could she explain herself? What should she say? X
