However, these words were now of no use to Missha, whose emotions were already extremely volatile. Matthew's comforting did not work on her at all.
She was still very agitated.
As the rims of her eyes reddened, she asked Matthew, "Why hasn't Reid cto see me?" Meanwhile, Matthew suddenly took something out and gave it to Missha.
"Missha, this is for you." Matthew handed the object in his hands to Missha.
Missha opened the box and was stunned.
It was a box of biscuits.
Missha's eyes suddenly lit up. "These are my favorite biscuits. Reid must have asked you to bring it to me, right? It must be Reid that asked you to give these to me." Missha said excitedly.
Matthew's gaze wavered. He neither admitted nor denied it.
Although Missha was still agitated, her mood improved significantly. She had escaped from her shroud of negativity and was now relatively positive.
She said excitedly, "I knew it, I knew Reid still cared forin his heart. He's just busy and doesn't have the tto see me. He even asked Matthew to bringbiscuits." Looking at Missha's excited look, Dylan felt a twinge of sadness and irony.
He knew that it was impossible for Reid to have asked Matthew to bring that box of biscuits. Reid didn't have a shred of kindness in him. Matthew was just using this box of biscuits to comfort Missha. However, Missha was so gullible that she really thought it was from Reid.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMissha was comforted by that box of biscuits. She was already mentally unstable in the first place. After that outburst just now, she felt drained after having calmed down. Thus, Dylan got her to take a rest. When she laid down in bed, she was still holding on tightly to that box of biscuits that she had mistakenly assumed to be a gift from Reid.
Dylan found it to be an eyesore.
A few moments later, he exited the room just as Matthew was preparing to leave.
"Matthew, are you going already?" Dylan asked.
He had a naturally hoarse voice.
Matthew nodded. "Take good care of your mother." "Matthew, you really don't have to do this." Dylan's voice was then laced with sarcasm as he said, "Reid himself couldn't be bothered about the wellbeing of my mother, so really, there's no need for you to do so in his stead." Although Dylan wasn't a part of the Perry family, he knew that the two brothers, Matthew and Reid, were not on good terms.
To start with, there was a huge age gap between them, with Reid being much older than Matthew.
Secondly, their personalities were vastly different.
Reid was ruthless, and he would not give up until he had achieved his goal.
As for Matthew...
Since he was doing rather well in the business world, he was certainly no saint. However, he was undoubtedly much better than many others.
He had a charming personality, and he also had a bottom line for everything.
Matthew's eyes flashed with emotion. "You don't have to think too much about it. Mr. Whitlock once toldthat Reid had let your mother down, and wantedto take good care of her." Then, he took out a gold card and handed it to Dylan. "This card is for you. It is the living expenses for you and your mother." Dylan immediately rejected the offer.
"Matthew, it's okay. I don't need it." Matthew sighed lightly. "Dylan, you'll suffer a lot of hardship sooner or later if you keep being so stubborn." "Thank you for reminding me." Dylan's voice was a little stiff.
After one last glance at Dylan, Matthew sighed in his heart and left.
In the evening, Selina made a call to Natalie.
A lot of things had happened that day, and she had a lot of thoughts on her mind that she couldn't wait to share with Natalie.
Although Natalie was her sister-in-law in name, she also felt that Natalie could just as well be her best friend. Selina had always been a straightforward person equipped with a sharp tongue, but at her core, she had a tender heart and was a kind person. Unfortunately, for this very reason she did not have many friends until she met Natalie. Ever since, she had regarded Natalie as one of her closest confidants.
What's more, Natalie also knew much about her and the things that happened in her life.
Selina and Natalie talked extensively about the matters that had happened that day over the phone. At the end of their conversation, Selina sighed and said, "Natalie, I pity Dylan's mother quite a bit. I feel rather upset." On the other end of the line, there was a sudden glint in Natalie's eyes.
Selina was a very eloquent and expressive person, hence Natalie could pretty much understand Missha's plights from her description of it alone.
It turned out that Dylan had a family like that....
His parents were probably divorced.
Natalie thought to herself that it was no wonder that this man had such an extrpersonality.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe could not help but say, "If you really do marry him, you may have much to suffer through in the future."
Although it was indeed pitiful that Missha was a divorcee and mentally o'm challenged, as her sister-in-law, Natalie couldn't help but feel inclined to be selfish in this matter and wish against their marriage. Selina was truly born with a silver spoon. S'ach The Find Nøvel. et website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. She should easily be able to find a man who would cherish her, who was also able to match up to her wealthy family background.
Selina smiled and said in a casual tone, "Natalie, I understand. However, it doesn't matter to me. No matter how bad the conditions might be for me, as long as I love him and he loves me. That's all that matters and it's enough. Nothing else matters." Natalie still wanted to persuade Selina, but her words were countered. "Natalie, if Tobias wasn't rich, or if his family was like Dylan's, would you still have accepted Tobias?" Natalie's voice instantly froze.
If Tobias hadn't been the president of the YS Group or an aristocrat, and instead from a family that was ordinary to the point of having a horrible background, would Natalie still have accepted Tobias? The answer was, of course, yes.
She would. She would have gladly accepted him no matter what.
She loved Tobias, not because of his status or his family background, but because he was Tobias. "Selina, since you understand, I won't nag you any further. I wish you happiness," Natalie said in a low voice. At that moment, she suddenly understood Selina.
There was a smile in Selina's voice, one that meant that she was looking forward to the future. "Natalie, I will be happy. This was the first the's takento meet his mother. I think good things will happen from now on." Natalie was stunned.
Good things would happen from then on? Hadn't they said they were going to get married last time? Why had it changed to just "good things"? Selina seemed to have understood Natalie's doubts.
She said in a helpless tone, "Natalie, anything that happens betweenand Dylan is unpredictable. Whatever of them we've decided in the spur of the th moment might be overturned in the next second. I reckon there has never in this world been a couple as fickle-minded as us, right? For instance, he was just insisting that he did not want to get married, and then the next thing I know, he was bringingto meet his mother." Natalie felt helpless after hearing Selina's words.
She really didn't know what to say about the couple.
"By the way, Natalie, where are you now?" Selina asked.
"Bali." On the other end of the line, Natalie's lips subconsciously curved up into a smile. "We arrived in Bali yesterday."
