"What do you want then?" Selina asked.

"I wish to save our marriage," Matthew said in a deep tone.

"Haven't you told me that you'd agree to a divorce?" Selina said. This was what Matthew had said before the misunderstanding had been cleared up.

Matthew frowned slightly and said, "Selina, that was only because I'd felt so insecure. I didn't know what you had been thinking at the time, so I'd been very anxious."

It was normal for anyone to lose control of their emotions from time to time. Matthew was no exception.

He had been extremely depressed at that time, and overwhelmed by negative feelings.

"But, I've never really thought seriously about divorce. I have made up my mind to spend the rest of my life with you," Matthew said. Then, he looked at Selina and said, "Would you please give me a chance?" Selina's heart skipped a beat when she saw Matthew staring at her with such deep affection.

Selina felt lost whenever Matthew looked at her like that.

"What if I say no?" Selina replied firmly.

"Well, in that case, I will try my best to win you over," Matthew said while staring at Selina.

"Do you really like me that much?" Selina asked.

"Yes," Matthew said frankly.

Selina bit her lower lip. Her mind was in a mess now.

Why had Matthew fallen for her? What was so good about her?

Selina felt that she had made herself very clear. However, Matthew was determined to save their marriage.

Seeing Matthew's determination, Selina couldn't help but have second thoughts about her decision.

She took a deep breath and said, "Truth be told, I hated you very much when I'd thought that the matter was all your doing. Now, I don't hate you that much anymore. Although I do still have some negative feelings towards you, I can ignore those feelings. After all, you were drugged as well. You couldn't control the situation."

"Selina..." Matthew called out her name guiltily.

Selina tried hard to sound casual, "So, let's put an end to this and pretend that nothing happened."

After giving it a second thought, Selina felt that she couldn't blame Matthew for this.

She should blame Reid instead, who was the person who planned for all these things to happen. However, Reid was not doing well either.
