My Heart only Beats for You

With many people around, she was probably high-strung. Having a private conversation would definitely make it a lot easier for Cecilia to calm down. A hint of consideration flashed across her eyes.

After a moment, she stood up. "I don't think these fruits are enough for everyone to eat. I'll go to the kitchen and cut some more."

As she spoke, she looked at Matthew. "Matthew, come and help me."

Of course, they went to the kitchen not only for the fruits.

When they reached the kitchen, Matthew started the conversation. "Madam Lawson, do you remember what you said to me last time in the kitchen?"

Cecilia was slightly stunned.

There was a vague impression in her mind, but she couldn't quite recall it.

She only remembered that she was excited upon hearing the good news that Selina was going to marry Matthew. She had purposely called him to the kitchen for a chat.

Cecilia remained silent and Matthew continued, "You told me that Selina had an arrogant personality. You wanted me to promise that I would pamper Selina all my life, that no matter how headstrong she was, I had to bear with her."

Cecilia was speechless.

She finally remembered. That was true.

Thinking of this, there was a flash of guilt in Cecilia's eyes.

She shouldn't have told Matthew that back then. Selina's arrogance cannot be satisfied just by pampering. It would put Matthew in harm as well.

"It's still the same now, Madam Lawson." Matthew's eyes were wise and calm, with a sense of steadiness that was built up over years. "Since I have made you a promise, I will put it into practice. It's the same back then and now."

Cecilia's remorse deepened.

She couldn't help but say, "Matthew, I shouldn't have said that back then. You're a good person. I can't let Selina hurt you like that."

Of course, she wanted her daughter to be happy.

However, she hoped that Selina wouldn't ruin anyone's life.

"How do you know that Selina would harm me,

Madam Lawson?" Matthew asked in reply.
