Taking a deep breath, Selina continued looking at Matthew and that man. S~Earch the (F)indWebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
The anger in Matthew's eyes scared Reid.
At this time, Matthew didn't look like the mild gentleman he usually did. His handsfacial features were giving off a chilling vibe which struck fear in people's heart.
He raised his hands and said, "OK, I'll stop. I'll leave now!" Matthew then let go of Reid in an instant.
Reid walked to the door quickly and then stopped.
Pointing at Matthew, Reid said in a sharp and sarcastic tone, "What people said about Matthew Perry being a gentleman is nothing but lies. You're so mean to your biological brother that you even wantdead by all means. Very well, Matthew! Very damn well! Well see about that!" Reid rushed out as soon as he finished talking.
Selina was completely shocked.
It turned out that the man, Dylan's father, was Matthew's biological brother.
However, truth be told, both were not alike at all...
But what that man had said just now...
Selina's heart started pounding.
So Matthew was really not as simple as he looked. She was right, Matthew was a wolf in sheep's clothing.
He looked good on the outside, but was actually conniving and full of tricks inside.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOtherwise, how could he have snatched his nephew's woman, and how could his biological brother have reprimanded him this way! It was night tand Selina received a call from Natalie informing her of Cecelia's return.
Selina was slightly absent-minded.
At first, she had wanted to visit her family on her own, but she didn't expect that Matthew would know about it. Matthew wanted to go with her to visit the Whitlock family.
Selina was rather unwilling and said, "Forget it. I'll go by myself. You're busy too. There's no need to accompany me." Matthew's gentle tone was irresistible as he said, "You are now my wife. Accompanying my wife to visit her family is a husband's responsibility, Selina. This is something I should be doing even if I'm really busy." Selina could not reject that.
But at the stime, she was complaining silently in her heart.
Matthew's words just now would really leave a good impression on other people that he was a rather great man, but then in actual fact, it wasn't the case.
This man was only good at pretending and was really good at it, even fooling everyone in the Whitlock family, including her highly capable brother, Tobias.
Matthew was so good at pretending that even someone as sharp-eyed as Tobias had been fooled by him. The Whitlock family had already prepared a sumptuous feast and was waiting for Matthew and Selina's arrival.
It was obvious that the Whitlock family was very happy, including Cecilia.
There was joyous laughter during meal.
Selina had lost her appetite.
After dinner, the servants were about to clean the table when Cecilia stopped them and said, "Letclean up tonight. I haven't been working out for a long time, it's tforto do shousework." Her gaze fell on Matthew's face and said, "Matthew, givea hand." "Okay," replied Matthew in a clear tone.
After Matthew had walked into the kitchen, Natalie pulled Tobias' up hand and said, "I'll go help mom instead." She thought that it wouldn't be nice to have a guest to help in the washing.
Tobias then held Natalie's hand and told, "Natalie, my mother wants to talk to Matthew." Natalie's eyes glimmered.
"But why talk inside the kitchen?" she could not help but ask.
Tobias held Natalie's hand firmly and said, "My mother has her own reasons. Don't worry, Natalie." Natalie nodded.
Since Tobias had already said so, what was there for her to worry about? In the spacious and brightly-lit kitchen, Matthew rolled up his sleeves.
He looked rather classy and regal as usual despite such down-to-earth gestures.
Cecilia quickly stopped Matthew and said, "Matthew, I don't really mean to have you washing the plates by asking you to cin here." Matthew smiled and said, "Since I'm already inside here then just letdo it." Of course, he knew that Cecilia did not intend to ask him to wash the plates.
Cecilia shook her head and said, "With your status, how could I possibly allow you to cinto the kitchen to wash the dishes?" Nowadays, many men, even those of common status, were not willing to step into the kitchen to wash dishes. Their excuse was that such chores did not belong to men. Therefore, it would not seem possible for Matthew to be washing dishes as well.
In a casual tone, Matthew said, "Mrs. Whitlock, perhaps this society has created different social classes for people, and with all sorts of labels But eventually, we are still a physical entity born of our parents, thus making us all equal. Therefore, there is nothing that can't be done." Cecilia's eyes glimmered slightly.
Perhaps to her, the sthing said by others might have sounded somewhat pretentious, but for Matthew, it was not the case at all.
When he spoke, his eyes were clear without any trace of pretense.
That was what he actually thought.
Cecilia's appreciation towards Matthew grew even more. It seemed like Selina had found the right man.
Perhaps she could only be relieved when such a man had married Selina.
Matthew smiled again and said, "What's more, I didn't arrange for ove anyone to take care ofwhen I was studying abroad. I also did the cooking and cleaning by myself." Cecilia gave in and said, "Well, since you said so, I will no longer object." Matthew turned on the tap with his sleeves slightly rolled up. He made even the action of washing up look like a work of art.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLooking at the way Matthew behaved and acted, Cecelia knew that Matthew was not lying.
This man had really washed dishes before.
Cecilia was more and more impressed.
Matthew also grew up in a noble family and had been in a well offe environment, onment. By right, all the chores could have been done by the servants, but he was still able to do these trivial things personally. That was really uncommon.
Matthew put down the last bowl.
The bowl was squeaky clean and shiny.
As Matthew's gaze fell on Cecilia's face, he said in a low and deep voice, "Mrs. Whitlock, about the thing between Selina and I, it waswho had been reckless." Finally things were moving in the direction of conversation's core theme.
Cecilia said in a gentle tone, "No, it wasn't reckless. Actually, when you were still Selina's boyfriend at that time, I was already thinkin how lucky Selina would be to marry you." Matthew smiled bitterly, "Mrs.
Whitlock, this matter is complicated. I can't explain it clearly in a short time.
I will explain it to you when I have time." Cecilia's face fell for moment.
She looked at Matthew and said, "You don't have to explain, Matthew." A hint of surprise flashed across Matthew's eyes.
Cecilia continued, "I believe in you. Since I have given you and Selina the green light, there is no need to explain towhat happened in the process, just as long as the outcis a happy one." "Mrs. Whitlock." Cecilia interrupted Matthew and said, "How about you addressdifferently after the wedding?" Matthew's eyes were slightly blank.
Since Cecelia had cto this point...
