Selina's lips twitched.

She wanted to refute Peter's statement.

It wasn't what he thought it was.

Matthew had already found a new lover, so Matthew being tolerant to her was all just an act.

Cecilia seemed to have noticed that Selina was about to say something that would displease Peter, because she cut in with a smile, "It is indeed true. That's why everyone is saying that Selina was blessed with a good man. Isn't that right, Selina?"

After she said that, Cecilia looked at Selina.

There was a hint of warning in her eyes.

Selina swallowed the words that she had wanted to say.

The impulsiveness she'd felt a moment ago passed and she reined in her emotions.

No matter what her own desires were, she still had to prioritize Peter's condition.

At this age, it was better not to make Peter angry.

However, she still had to relieve the anger in her heart.

Selina stood up.

She smiled at Peter and said, "Grandpa, why don't you continue eating while I go to the kitchen to check on Matthew's progress."

After Selina left, Peter muttered, "How could the dish be ready? Didn't Matthew just leave?"

Cecilia said a little insincerely, "Isn't this just the way lovers show affection?"

Peter smiled and said, "You're right. They really are an affectionate couple. They couldn't even stand being apart for such a short while."

Everyone at the table laughed together.

Of course, except for Peter, everyone else's smiles were slightly awkward.

When Selina entered the kitchen, Matthew was cutting the vegetables.

The normal impression he gave was of a rich, noble heir, so he should have looked awkward and unnatural doing something as plebian as this. Even so, if anything, it only made his air even warmer and inviting.
