She paused and put on a bitter smile. "Matthew, you should know that Selina, she..." Natalie licked her dry lips and said, "She doesn't see you as..."

"I understand." Matthew said directly, "Natalie, there are some things that I can't tell you now. So, please help me out this time."

There was a flash of hesitation in Natalie's eyes.

What was wrong with Matthew?

After a while, Natalie agreed.

She had known Matthew for a long time, and she also knew that Matthew was a person who knows what he's doing. He would definitely not try anything silly. At noon, Natalie asked Selina to go out for a meal.

She thought that she could use this as an excuse to get Selina to the restaurant, and she would then get Matthew to come to the restaurant too.

However, Selina instantly rejected her.

She said that she had no appetite.

Natalie then suggested to go for dinner instead.

Selina put down the book in her hand. "Natalie, I haven't had a good appetite recently. I just want to have some quiet time and read some books here.

I don't feel like going anywhere."

Natalie was dazed.

She started to sense that there was something wrong with Selina.

After thinking for a while, she reckoned that it was because of her fight with Dylan.

She figured that it had already become the norm for Selina to act this way now, and that she would get better in no time. She didn't let it bother her further.

Natalie went downstairs and called Matthew.

She suggested for Matthew to come to their house instead.

"Matthew, at first, I was thinking of asking Selina out, so that you could meet her. However, she refused to leave the house. So, why don't you just come over instead? It would be the same anyway, you guys can still talk here."

There was a moment of silence.

"Okay." Matthew replied.
