Selina was stunned.

She was aware of this as well.

"Forget it, I'll just go in so that I won't have to hear Matthew say that I didn't give him the respect he deserves when I'm the one delivering the gift to him," she thought to herself.

Selina followed Matthew into the main hall.

She sat on the sofa and put her belongings aside.

"What do you want to drink?" Matthew asked Selina.

"I'm fine with anything." Selina's words were concise.

Matthew went to make a cup of cappuccino.

When the drink was given to Selina, her eyes inexplicably fell on Matthew's hand.

He had pretty hands with defined joints.

She suddenly replayed the memory of when his hand had held hers only moments ago...

Selina cursed herself silently. What nonsense was she thinking about?

Selina took the cup, and then her eyes flashed in surprise. "How did you know that I like to drink

cappuccino?"

Cappuccino was indeed her favorite drink.

Matthew's eyes darkened slightly. "Young ladies like this type of drink."

She heaved a sigh. "It's a pity that I'm no longer a young lady."

In her opinion, a young lady was someone under the age of twenty.

Time flies. When she first met Natalie, she wasn't even 20 years old. How is it that in the blink of an eye, Hayden had already grown so much, and she was so old?

"Selina, I've always seen you as a young lady." Matthew's voice was low and magnetic. "The same young lady wearing a skirt at sixteen."

Selina was slightly stunned.
