My Heart only Beats for You

"Give them hell," Matthew spat out.

Matheo was in utter shock.

Moments later, he came to his senses and nodded. "Understood."

Matthew brought Selina into his car.

By then, Selina was pretty much sobered up.

She then realized how stupid and dangerous her actions were. She was a girl alone in a pub, drunk. If it hadn't been for Matthew, she couldn't have imagined what might have happened.

"Thank you, Matthew," Selina said softly.

Matthew's brows furrowed slightly, and he said in an exasperated tone, "You're already about to get married, but here you are drinking yourself senseless, alone in a bar. Are all of you young people like this?" The corner of Selina's lips twitched. "What do you mean 'all of you young people'? Are you that old?"

Matthew's previous words had made him sound like an old geezer.

"Don't you think I'm old?" Matthew asked with a mysterious glint in his eyes.

Selina kept silent.

The truth was, she didn't think that Matthew was very old. He looked quite young. It was just that he was 9 years older than her.

"I'll send you home," Matthew said. He turned his eyes to the front, hit the gas, and drove forward.

Selina chewed on her fingernails along the way.

She didn't want to go home, not at all.

She didn't know how to explain to her family that there would be no wedding the next day.

Though running away would not solve the problem, the only thing she wanted to do right then was avoid it all. Her mind was in too much of a mess that she felt certain it would explode. When they arrived at the gate of Whitlock family villa, Matthew stopped the car. His eyes fell on Selina's face.
