She tore open a bag of potato chips and said, "Natalie, you are right. Nothing has changed. Only our mentality has changed. However, one's mentality can change at any time." Natalie nodded heavily.
A crunching sound was heard.
Selina had put a piece of potato chip into her mouth.
The potato chips were fragrant and crispy.
At this moment, Selina made a decision.
She decided to look for Reid again and ask him where Lothar was.
Although Lothar getting close to her was indeed a scheme, Yesseca was worried now that he had gone missing. Without her help, things could becworse.
Even if she wanted to cut ties with Lothar in the future, at least, at this very moment, she would still have to help Yesseca and even Lothar.
Before Selina could even head out to see Reid, another thing had happened.
This happened not long after Natalie returned to the Whitlock family home.
A matter that caused a great disturbance in Agaphen City.
Back then, Saoirse was the talk of the town when she was involved in the incident regarding Matthew. She had recently accepted an interview with one of Agaphen City's most authoritative media to clarify the whole matter. She first clarified the fact that she was indeed married to Matthew, but it was a marriage of convenience. They didn't have any intimate relationship at all. They had only agreed to marry due to sspecial reason.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSaoirse also specifically explained that she and Matthew had no feelings for each other. Before they got married, either party would be allowed to get a divorce once they managed to find a suitable partner in the future.
Apart from this, she also gave an explanation for the press conference held by Matthew.
Matthew had never deceived anyone. It was only because one of the contract clauses of Saoirse and Matthew's marriage had been that the situation could not be disclosed temporarily due to sspecial business reasons. To protect Saoirse and Selina, he had had to compromise.
Saoirse specifically emphasized that Matthew did not deceive Selina and that Selina was not a mistress. She had told Selina from the beginning that she and Matthew only had a contract agreement, so they did not need to consider her feelings.
In fact, there were many loopholes in Saoirse's statement.
But the public often paid no attention to these loopholes.
Matthew's past reputation had always been outstanding. In addition, it was his original wife, Saoirse, who personally proved it. Public opinion had changed.
In an instant, his image had changed.
Those who once insulted Matthew disappeared, and countless people cout to praise Matthew.
"I see. I knew Matthew wouldn't have done such a thing!" "Matthew already has the money and good looks. So why would such a man try to deceive another woman when he was already married? It's impossible!" "When Matthew convened the press conference, I knew that he must be hiding something. I didn't expect it to be true." "There are many people like them that agree to get married but have no feelings at all. They also agreed that they will get a divorce when they find a suitable partner in the future. It's normal, but us civilians don't know about it." "I decided that Matthew is still my idol." Natalie was the first to see the news. She told Selina about it.
After Selina hung up Natalie's call, she whipped out her phone.
She first read the news, and then she read all the comments one by one. Her eyes were slowly shining as she read.
The other problem that had bothered her for a long thad been resolved without her even knowing.
She had once begged Saoirse to give a statement to help Matthew, but she'd declined.
But now Saoirse had taken the initiative to clarify Matthew's issue now, and this had managed to clear away the negative public opinion. Selina's heart was pounding.
This was the happiest piece of news she had gotten ever since she found out about what had happened to Lothar.
Selina couldn't wait to call Matthew.
But his phone was turned off.
Selina knocked her head.
Oh, what a memory she had.
She had forgotten that Matthew was on the plane! On the other hand, Brine also saw the news.
It was her friend who told her about it.
Brine happily looked for Selina.
She said, "Miss Whitlock, that woman finally has sconscience. She finally clarified on the matter about Master Matthew." Selina said with joy, "Yes, the public's impression of Matthew is now good again. This is a good thing." After she chatted with Brine for a while, she went to visit Lothar's house.
Lothar still had not returned.
When she arrived at Lothar's house, Yesseca was sitting at the dining table. There were many paper cranes scattered on the table.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe looked at Selina and said, "Miss Whitlock, every day that my brother is not back yet, I'll fold five paper cranes. But why hasn't he returned yet?" She pointed to the paper cranes on the table. "One, two, three, four, five..." Selina fell silent.
She wanted to find Reid directly, but she didn't know why she chere all of a sudden.
Yesseca noticed that Selina didn't speak, so she raised her eyes to look at her. "Miss Whitlock, last tyou said that you would call and tellabout my brother's whereabouts. But haven't received your call for a long time. I called you, but you didn't answer as well. I guessed that you must have been busy, right?" She didn't sound like she was blaming Selina. Instead, it sounded like she was finding an excuse for her. Selina's breathing cto a halt.
On that day, she had promised Yesseca, but she didn't expect that when she went to Reid's place, she would find out a cruel truth. Selina completely forgot to call Yesseca, and she didn't even pick up when Yesseca called.
"Yesseca, I'm sorry," Selina said in a low voice.
"It's okay, Miss Whitlock." Yesseca smiled at Selina. "I know you're busy. It's just that I'm a little worried about my brother. Although Sierra said that this was normal, I've been having nightmares these past few days." Yesseca paused, "I plan to make a police report if I am unable to get in touch with my brother within these two days. Miss Whitlock, do you agree?" She looked helplessly at Yesseca with her panicked eyes. Selina's heart suddenly felt suffocated.
"Yesseca, I will investigate your brother's whereabouts right now. Rest assured that I will give you an answer by today. This time, I promise that I won't forget." Selina went to Reid's house again.
"Miss Whitlock, you cagain to find out Lothar's whereabouts?" Reid said in a mocking tone.
"Since you know, don't talk so much nonsense with me. Where is Lothar?" Selina glared at Reid.
He gave a sinister laugh.
His tone was filled with contempt as he said, "I didn't expect that you would still be so obsessed with Lothar even after knowing the reason why you two had becfriends. Could it be that you fell in love with him?"
"Shut up!" Selina glared at Reid. "I don't have tto talk nonsense with you. Letask you one more time, where is Lothar? If you don't tell me, I promise you that I will never let you leave this place." A cold look flashed across Reid's eyes. X
