Cecilia thought for a moment and said, "Selina, now that Matthew is awake, I shouldn't bother you anymore. You should stay with Matthew, I'll cto visit you both later on." Cecilia knew that Matthew had just woken up, and the two of them probably would have a lot to catch up on. She thought that she might be a nuisance if she continued staying there. Granted, Selina wanted nothing more than that.
Although Saorise had just left, God knows when she would cback. Cecilia being there was simply like a ticking tbomb.
Selina then nodded.
"Callif you need anything." "Alright." After Cecilia left, Selina stood there for a little while more. A moment later, the doctor cout.
"Doctor, how is he now?" Selina immediately asked.
"He's in a good condition. He'll be alright after srest." Selina then entered the ward.
When she walked in, Matthew looked over towards her as well.
Their line of sight clashed.
Selina felt something surging inside.
It had been just a few days, yet she felt as if it there had been a century's rift between them.
She walked over with quick footsteps.
She buried her head in Matthew's chest and said, "You're finally up, Matthew. I almost thought that you wouldn't ever wake up again." Her voice slowly becchoked with sobs.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGently, Matthew patted Selina's head. "There there, my little girl. I'm awake now, no?" Selina raised her chin, tears welling up in her delicate eyes. "Matthew, how on earth did you get into a car accident? You almost scaredto death, you know. I don't even know how I got through the past few days." Matthew's breath stopped for a bit.
A bitter smile appeared on the corners of his lips. "Selina, I got a little too emotional while driving, and I lost control of the steering wheel." "Got emotional for what?" Selina immediately asked.
Matthew went silent for a moment.
After a moment, he said in a hoarse voice, "Selina, I owe Saoirse too much." Selina stiffened.
She strained to say, "Do you like her?" "You silly girl!" Matthew gazed deeply at Selina and said, "I'll love one and only one woman in my whole life, and that's you, Selina. Other than you, there would never be any other woman in my heart." "But you said that you got emotional, and you owed her." "Yes, but it has nothing to do with love." "Matthew, she's too beautiful. I'm just scared." A hint of gloom appeared below her long eyelashes. "You know, I've always been so confident, yet I've suddenly lost my confidence now." When Selina was talking, it seemed as if it was raining in the ward, and the whole atmosphere in the room was inexplicably melancholic.
Matthew tried to sit up.
He wanted to hug Selina.
He supported himself with his arms.
"What's wrong?" Selina asked.
"I want to sit up." "You haven't recovered yet. You should just lie down." "I'm fine." Seeing that Matthew was insisting on getting up, Selina could only help him up.
Matthew sat on the bed.
He extended his arms towards Selina.
Selina was stunned for a moment.
Matthew's gaze were deep. "Lethug you, my girl." Selina felt her breathing stall.
After a while, she couldn't help but throw herself into Matthew's embrace.
The familiar warmth of his was all over Selina, putting her at ease.
She murmured, "Matthew." "Selina, I have to admit that I feel really guilty towards Saoirse, but the guilt would never beclove. Please believe me, all right?" Selina nodded.
She said, "I heard what Saoirse said when I was outside of the ward earlier. She said that she would agree for the both of us to get married?" After saying this, Selina clearly felt that the arms, which were hugging her, go rigid.
Selina looked up at Matthew.
Her gaze was riddled with confusion and doubts.
Matthew slightly pursed his thin lips, and his jawline clenched, making him look so strong yet so noble.
"Matthew, you're hesitating, aren't you?" Selina asked.
"I did hesitate," Matthew admitted it. "Selina, I did hesitate, I hesitated when I was driving in the car, that's why." Selina suddenly covered Matthew's mouth, stopping him from continuing his words.
Her eyes were watery. "Okay, I understand, don't say it anymore. My mum isn't that much in a rush now that you got into an accident. Let's just delay it for a little more longer." "Selina." Matthew's voice was hoarse.
Selina forced a smile between her lips. "Don't worry, I understand. I understand that it isn't easy for you either. I am no longer that little girl who's naive and who doesn't know anything at all. Matthew, your little girl is all grown up now." Matthew felt as if his heart had fallen into a hot pot of boiling water.
He leaned his forehead against hers. "Wait for me. Givehalf a year. Everything will be fine after, and I'll use my whole life to compensate you." Selina's long and thick eyelashes were like a pair of butterflies, and the shadows formed under her eyes were so enchanting. "You don't have to returnanything. You did not do anything wrong. It's just fate that's playing a fool with us. Matthew, none of us didthing wrong here." Caroline drove Saoirse back to Reid's place.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen they arrived at the villa, Caroline asked Saoirse to watch a movie alone in her room.
Of course, the movie still depicted the story of the main lead's wife, wreaking her revenge on the mistress.
Caroline then went to Reid's.
Caroline told Reid about everything that happened that day.
She was full of complains. "Reid, I have taught her so much, and I have told her about so much Why is she still so stubborn? It was a good opportunity for her to ruin Selina today yet she left just like that when Selina asked her to leave. How could there possibly be such a stupid woman on this planet?!" Caroline was totally furious.
Reid cut a cold glance at Caroline. "Idiot!" Caroline's breath stopped.
"Who are you calling an idiot?" "It's you I'm calling an idiot." Caroline got furious.
She raised her voice. "Reid, what are you trying to say?"
Reid curled his lips coldly and said, "Miss Yethan, why are you so agitated? You have taught Saoirse for sp long but nothing cout of it. Do you think that you are smart then? The actions of a student is always closely related to the teacher." Caroline was totally speechless.
Reid's voice beccolder. "Miss Yethan, all your mean tricks that I I saw when I just met you, where have they gone to? Where are those tricks that you have to manipulate facts? You could even forge a recording of Selina's." Caroline felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck her.
She looked at Reid and said, "What do you mean?" Reid sneered, "Whatever you think it means. Though I will just remind you, Miss Yethan. You could manipulate how much Saoirse hates Selina." Caroline immediately understood it.
In the evening, Caroline found Saoirse again.
Her face was full of grief. "Saoirse, your kindness was for nothing." Saoirse looked at Caroline, and her beautiful blue eyes were thick with confusion.
Caroline coughed softly. "I was once good friends with Selina, but because of her rotten character, I cut her off. You probably knew about it." X
