"Selina, I'm at the door. Come out for a while." She heard his magnetic voice through the phone.

"Okay." Selina hung up quickly.

She practically dashed out. When she reached the living room door, she wondered what she was so excited about.

She slowed her footsteps.

Although her pace had slowed, her heart was still anxious.

When she saw that Matthew's car was parked at the gate of the villa, her heart beat faster.

She walked to the side of the car.

Matthew rolled down the window and handed her a thermos. "This is for you."

Selina accepted it.

There was a slight heat emanating from the thermos.

"What's this?" she asked in confusion.

She could not help but ask, "Erine was the one who wanted you to send me this?"

"Yes."

"So Erine gave you specific instructions?"

Matthew's brows furrowed slightly. He could tell that Selina's emotions were a little off.

He said in a harsh tone, "Yes, Erine specifically told me to give it to you, so I drove here at the crack of dawn."

Selina suddenly felt that the thermos, which had initially been a little warm, had turned ice cold.

It was so cold that she felt a sharp pain in her palm.

"Oh," Selina replied. "Then I'll be going."

She looked lifeless.

Selina went straight to the study.

She opened the thermos, which contained her favourite cabbage soup. That was Erine's specialty.
