He hadn't wanted to keep this vegetable garden initially as he didn't like the idea of having vegetables planted around the house. He'd only given in because of Selina, and since she'd left, he'd seen no point in it.

keeping

However, upon hearing Erine's statement that the seeds had sprouted, Matthew had thought that he'd keep the vegetables since they represented the birth of a new life.

Now that he had seen these little sprouts with his own eyes, he was even more determined to keep the vegetable garden.

"Take good care of them," Matthew said lightly.

Then, he walked into the living room where dinner had been served.

The servants of the Perry family would usually not prepare any dinner unless they were instructed to do so. This was because Matthew had used to work way past working hours, eating at the office almost every day.

However, everything had changed since he'd married Selina.

He would come home on time for dinner.

That night, dinner was prepared as usual.

Matthew felt bored while having dinner.

At times, a habit is hard to change.

Matthew was a good example. He had gotten used to dinner with Selina after work each day. Yet, from this point on he could only have dinner alone.

He forced himself to not think about it.

After finishing his dinner quickly, he

headed upstairs to rest.

When he entered the bedroom, a feeling of loneliness engulfed him.

He remembered how Selina would always be sitting on the bed, reading or playing with her mobile phone. Whenever he entered, they would jokingly argue. However, Selina was no longer there.

Matthew stood in the bedroom for a long time in a daze and went back downstairs.

With the bedroom filled with memories of Selina, Matthew was certain he would lose sleep that night if he stayed on.

Therefore, Matthew got Erine to clean up the guest room which he would sleep in for the night.

It took Erine no time at all to have the room ready.
