"I, I've met her. I've met Caroline before here," Brennan stammered, "I saw her outside the villa." Selina's eyes glinted a little.
That would mean that the meet up between Brennan and Caroline was just a pure coincidence.
"What did she say to you?" Selina asked again.
Brennan hesitated.
Caroline had told him a lot and if he were to tell everything to Selina, Brennan knew that he would stutter and stammer.
He was afraid that Selina would dislike his stuttering.
Moreover, he knew that Caroline and Selina were good friends so he didn't think too much about it.
Brennan said after a while, "Nothing much." Selina nodded.
"Brennan, I know that you're seeing a psychologist. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have treated you like that," Selina suddenly stood up.
She bowed at Brennan, "Brennan, I'm sorry." Brennan was shocked.
"No, there's no need," he blushed and said.
He wanted to help Selina up but he dared not move forward.
"If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have turned out like this today. I didn't know that things would play out so badly," Selina said with regrets. Brennan shook his head desperately, "No, no." Selina continuously apologized to Brennan but Brennan consistently shook his head vigorously. His face blushed bright red.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAll he said was "no" again and again to Selina.
Tpassed by slowly.
Selina felt she had already apologized for all that she could.
This meet up with Brennan made her feel even guiltier than before.
She did harm Brennan but Brennan had never blamed her.
Before leaving, Selina said, "Brennan, can I borrow your phone?" Brennan immediately handed his phone over.
Selina entered her number into Brennan's phone.
She then handed the phone back to Brennan.
When Brennan got his phone back, he accidentally brushed against Selina's fingers and his whole arm began to tremble.
Selina looked at Brennan sincerely, "Brennan, this is my number. From now on, we are friends, very good friends. If you need anything in the future, please cto me." Brennan's eyes were full of emotions, after a while, he nodded vigorously.
"Are you leaving too or staying for awhile?" Selina asked sweetly.
"Stay, staying for a while," Brennan stuttered.
"Then I'll be going. Callif there's anything I can do for you," Selina waved to Brennan goodbye.
Brennan's face turned completely red.
Selina exited the cafe with Matthew following behind.
Just as their car were leaving, Selina saw a gentleman in a suit talking to Brennan through the glass windows.
Selina was surprised, "Who is that?" "The HR manager of a company." Selina looked at Matthew in shock.
Matthew explained, "I found out that Brennan was a computer genius when we were doing a background check on him. He sent his resto the best software IT company in the world but was rejected because he didn't know how to communicate and interact during his interview. Ever since then, he'd never sent in his resto any company. The president of the company that Brennan sent his resto is my friend. I told him about Brennan and recommended Brennan to him and that's his HR manager talking to Brennan about a job proposal." A glimmer of hope flashed across Selina's eyes.
She didn't expect that Matthew would actually do all these for her quietly.
"You didn't tellanything," Selina couldn't help but say.
"I planned to tell you after your meeting with him. With his current state, communicating more with people would help him have an easier tat work. Also, working in a field that he is talented at may help him boost his confidence. Don't worry, I believe he will get better soon." The sparkle in Selina's eyes shone more brilliantly. She said gratefully, "Thank you, Matthew. You are really thoughtful. I just wanted to apologize to Brennan and be friends with him but I didn't think of this. You are right. What you have done will definitely help him." "That's why you don't have to worry too much. He'll be fine," Matthew said firmly.
Selina nodded with hope in her eyes.
"Are you going to the company later?" Selina asked.
"Do you needto be with you?" Matthew did not answer Selina's question directly.
"You must have a lot of work waiting for you at the company," Selina also answered indirectly. Matthew gave a bitter smile.
However, it was true. Because of the matter with Saoirse, he had piles of work waiting for him.
Although he could hand it over to his subordinates, but their abilities were limited. There were many things that needed his direct interference.
"Then you better head back to the company. I'll make a trip hto visit my family and my newborn nephew," Selina said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter her emotional outburst last night and the meet with Brennan previously, Selina felt much better inside. She no longer wanted to hide from her family.
"Okay then letdrop you there and I'll pick you up at night." About twenty minutes later, they arrived at the Whitlock family villa.
Before parting, Selina suddenly asked, "Why didn't Saoirse contact you until now?"
She originally thought that when Saoirse said that she wanted Matthew to accompany her for half a year, she would definitely pester him every day. However, until now, Saoirse hadn't made a single call.
Selina found it strange. Matthew frowned slightly.
Moments later, the frown between his brow loosened, "Isn't it better that way?" Selina found it reasonable that way too.
"See you tonight." "Yeah, see you." Meanwhile, Saoirse was in Reid's apartment.
Caroline had shown Saoirse a series of movies, all of which had a storyline that circulated around how the vicious mistress had stolen a woman's husband and the woman's revenge.
Saoirse didn't enjoy the movies.
She looked at Caroline and asked, "Caroline, can I stop watching these?"
Caroline's expression was solemn as Ο ΠΤ she said, "Of course you can't stop. Saoirse, this is your story. You need to learn how these women take their revenge. You're too weak. You need to learn to be cunning and crafty." After a moment's silence, Saoirse continued, "But my story is different
than the ones in movies. William met her first. He liked her from the beginning and he had never been willing to get into a marriage with me. Later on, when William got together with Selina, it was only because he had had amnesia. Our story is different than all these movies." After a pause, Saoirse added in a low voice, "And she doesn't seem to be that vicious." Yes, Saoirse did not like Selina. Not even a little.
But Selina was not as vicious as the mistresses in the movies. Though Saoirse met Selina only a handful of times, her intuition told her Selina was not such a bad person.
Caroline stared into Saoirse eyes, "Saoirse, look at me." Saoirse looked at Caroline in shock.
