My Heart only Beats for You

The truth was, she had a slight hunch that it might not be what she was thinking, but she was still hesitant. Either way, it was a really contradictory feeling. At this moment, Erine abruptly exclaimed, "Oh, Mr. Perry is back."

Selina was startled.

The spatula in her hand dropped.

Matthew bent down and picked it up. With a smile in his eyes, he chastised, "Be careful."

"Why did you come back so suddenly?" Selina looked at Matthew.

"I planned to come back from the start, so it's not sudden," Matthew replied. He paused and asked, "Why are you in the kitchen?"

This was the first time that he had seen Selina in the kitchen, and it seemed that she was cooking.

As soon as Matthew finished speaking, Erine immediately followed up, "Mr. Perry, Miss Whitlock said that she wanted to cook for you!"

A look of astonishment flashed in Matthew's eyes.

Selina felt so embarrassed that she wanted to bury herself in a hole.

She had wanted to find an excuse for herself at that moment, but Erine had already continued, saying, "Miss Whitlock is really considerate. She just asked me about your favorite food and wants me to teach her how to cook. Miss Whitlock really treats you well."

"Mr. Perry, Miss Whitlock is such a good girl!" Erine even gave a thumbs-up to Matthew on purpose.

Selina felt shy. "Erine, stop it."

This was the first time that other people's praise of her made her feel ashamed.

She was embarrassed, indescribably so.

She walked towards Erine, pushed her away and insisted, "Erine, you can go out first. I'll cook alone in the kitchen. You can do other things."

Selina decided to push her away so she wouldn't keep talking.

Erine still wanted to say something, but Matthew interrupted her. "Erine, I'll stay here. You can go out first."

As soon as Erine heard that Matthew would stay, she directly walked out with a smile.

Once she left, Matthew and Selina were alone.

Although there was only one person missing, the atmosphere seemed to have died down in an instant. Selina felt really awkward.
