NovelEnglishMatthew looked at Lucy with amusement while he tacitly agreed to her statement and decided not to expose her at that moment. Although he was the one who washed the handkerchief, how was Cillian going to know that? Dumbfounded, Cillian took the handkerchief from Lucy's hands. He looked at the handkerchief that had shrunk to almost half its size and brushed it off. "It's okay. It's just a handkerchief." "But you made it yourself. You put so much effort into it, and I accidentally ruined it." Lucy was still feeling guilty.
Matthew frowned in regret when he saw that. If he had known that his wife would feel so guilty about it, he would not have shrunk the handkerchief on purpose.
Cillian sighed. He knew that if he did not ask for something in return, Lucy would never get over the guilt.
"In that case, why don't you and your husband treatto a meal?" Cillian did not blindly make that request.

However, Lucy was feeling guilty for accidentally shrinking his handkerchief, and she had to pay him back somehow.
Since her husband was standing next to her, making any unreasonable demands would definitely cause friction between them.
In that case, he might as well ask both of them to treat him to a meal.
He could use this as an opportunity to confirm whether Matthew really was good to Lucy. Otherwise, he would not be relieved.
Matthew raised his eyebrows when he heard Cillian's request, looking him up and down.
Cillian noticed Matthew's gaze, so he smiled kindly at him.
Matthew looked away, understanding what Cillian was trying to do.
Seeing as Cillian was quite sensible, Matthew did not have to worry about the handkerchief anymore.
Meanwhile, Lucy sighed in relief. She quickly nodded and gave Cillian a big smile. "No problem. What do you want to eat? It's onand my husband," she said generously. Cillian pondered for a moment. "Why don't we eat somewhere near campus? I haven't eaten outside of campus in a long time. I've been under so much stress from my professors..." Lucy could not bear to look him in the eye. "Are you sure?" Cillian nodded.

At that time, she loved eating near campus.
Among the restaurants near campus, there was one restaurant that was known for its mild and refreshing flavors. The generous portions and NO warm hospitality of the owners made it a popular spot. However, once she started dating Timothy, she rarely went there as she needed to cater to his tastes. He would always force her to eat things she did not like. Lucy shook her head to get rid of such depressing thoughts.
She should stop thinking about it. Finally, she was free to eat what she iked. Why was she always thinking about that douchebag?
She decided to move on from those thoughts and happily took Matthew and Cillian to the restaurant. Cillian was smiling. He just wanted her to be happy...
