Chapter 236 Several photos seemed to have been taken sneakily as the shooting conditions looked immature. However, due to Helen's beauty and Matthew's gentlemanly behavior, the photos turned out pretty good.
There seemed to be a subtle understanding between the two. Their smiles were in sync when they naturally turned to glance at each other.
Half an hour ago, Helen posted a photo to social media. It showed Matthew in a suit and leather shoes. He had his left hand around Helen's shoulder and held a glass of wine in the other. He was looking back at Helen with a calm and soft gaze, making one feel happy for them.
Such a gentle exchange of looks madebelieve they would have a wonderful future together.
The most heart-fluttering part was the accompanying words, “Tstops whenever I'm with you.” Through the years, Matthew and Helen had grown from being complete strangers to being dependent on each other.
Matthew must have been moved by Helen's wholehearted devotion.

Indeed, being loved single-mindedly by such a beautiful young woman for so many years would soften even a heart made of stone.
This remindedof Colin.
He had always been a calm person. I'd never seen him post anything on social media. | had once asked him why.
He said if he were to encounter a really hard problem, the likelihood of finding a solution online was extremely low. If it was just to express his feelings, it was akin to unnecessary complaining. Speaking out directly would be more helpful in solving problems.
He said he wasn’t young anymore, so there was no need to waste time.
| had always thought that him claiming he wasn’t young anymore when he was still under 30 was just an excuse.
In reality, he just hadn't encountered something or someone worth posting about.
His close friends around him always said he was the calmest man in the world. He was so
dull and boring that he might end up not getting married. Colin would just laugh it off each time. He would say fate was predestined, and God would not let such a devout believer remain alone forever.
During the years with Colin at Lincoln University, | tried many times to get him on social media. | even prepared posts for him, but he always refused. He said if he found the woman of his life one day, he would make his social media debut with her.
I couldn't remember what | felt when | heard this back then.
But this boring and calm man surprisingly posted something tonight. He wrote, “I like waiting for you the most.” The attached photo showed two hands holding each other against a background of two blooming roses that were radiant from the sunlight.
The larger hand was slightly tanned and had strong knuckles, while the smaller one had long, slender fingers with fair and delicate skin. The two hands holding each other showed power and beauty coexisting. They complemented each other, creating a highly aesthetic visual.
The appearance of the roses stirred something in me. It remindedof the long rose corridor at Lincoln University.

There were many happy memories of Colin andin that beautiful corridor.
However, | couldn't understand what Colin meant by the post.
Back then, | was especially naive. | completely missed Colin's intentions and eagerly wanted to meet my future sister-in-law. | looked forward to the day he would post on social media. Now that he had finally made a post, it was a photo of him holding someone else’s hand.
And my feelings were not as joyous as | had anticipated. Rather, there was a bitter sadness. Something seemed to block my chest, and | was unable to do anything about it. It was just obstructing there.
Looking at the photo, | immediately thought Colin deliberately made this post and it was targeted at me.
| thought | had reason to suspect that he was using this method to tellhe had found the woman of his dreams.
