Caroline smiled. "You wouldn't know. We're talking about Matthew here. He's such an excellent man, even I can't be arrogant in front of him."

Selina gave Caroline some encouragement. "It's okay, you can definitely do it."

That was what Selina thought. In many people's eyes, Caroline was definitely more likable than she was. Since Matthew had liked her, she was sure that Caroline would be even more worthy of his interest. "Then I'll call him and make plans for lunch together. When the time comes, just try your best." Selina took out her mobile phone.

Caroline became nervous, and she fixed her gaze on Selina's phone.

Selina's gaze hardened slightly, and then she smiled helplessly.

She rarely saw Caroline like this, so nervous and insecure.

The call was quickly connected.

"Hello, Mr. Perry is having a meeting now. He will call back when the meeting is over."

This time, it was not Matthew's clear voice as usual, but the voice of an unfamiliar man.

Selina was stunned. "He's having a meeting?"

"Yes, Mr. Perry is having a meeting. He will get back to you afterwards."

After that, the phone was hung up.

Selina looked at Caroline with some shock. "He... He's in a meeting." S~ᴇaʀᴄh the (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Meanwhile, Caroline was not as surprised as Selina. She said matter-of-factly, "Someone as busy as Matthew definitely wouldn't be able to pick up at any time. Let's just wait." "Okay." Selina felt a little strange.

She knew that Matthew must be busy, but she never thought that he would be so busy that he would not even have time to answer the phone. After all, something like this had never happened when she called in the past. Her calls were always answered by Matthew himself.

After waiting for an hour, Selina still did not receive a call from Matthew.

It was nearly lunchtime.

Selina called Matthew again.
