It turned out that Stryker's girlfriend had seen him helping a female colleague that was moving to a new house.

They were only friends, but his girlfriend accused him of cheating.

His girlfriend not only threw a tantrum and yelled that she wanted to break up with him, but also beat him up.

"Mr. Perry, my girlfriend is really unreasonable nowadays. She can't even stand to see me being slightly closer with another woman, despite the fact that there's nothing between us. She almost lost her mind over it."

Matthew was helpless upon hearing this.

"She probably just gets jealous easily. You don't have to think too much," Matthew replied.

Stryker sighed. "You're right, she gets jealous easily, way too easily."

After Stryker left, Matthew started going through the documents on his desk. He was just flipping through the first document when he suddenly froze halfway.

Stryker's girlfriend had gotten jealous easily...

However, what was the reason?

Matthew's breathing quickened.

Selina's reaction that morning... Could it be that it was just because of Joycelyn?

Later that evening, Matthew returned to the villa slightly earlier than usual.

Peter was in the garden looking after the vegetables, which were growing well, whereas Selina was sitting on one side with a lifeless expression.

Karma. This was indeed her karma!

Selina seriously just wanted to cry.

This garden was a result of her trying to make things difficult for Matthew, yet it ended up making things difficult for her instead.

Peter was completely captivated by this vegetable garden. He would spend every single day in it, and would even drag Selina along.

Peter had been in the garden when Selina woke up from her nap. He wouldn't stop showing off the well grown vegetables to Selina. She was already drowsy from hearing his praise. Worst of all, she couldn't leave the place. She could only stay there and listen to Peter.

Thus, upon spotting Matthew, Selina was delighted.

Her eyes suddenly lit up as she said, "Grandpa, Matthew is back!"

It wasn't until then that Peter's attention was finally diverted from the vegetables.

"Matthew, you're back." Peter glanced over at Matthew.
