Matthew was still caught up in his thoughts and did not reply.

"Matthew, are you there? Can you hear me?" Selina asked in confusion.

Matthew regained his senses.

"Yes, I heard you," he answered in a low voice.

"Well, have you missed me?" Selina asked teasingly.

Matthew hesitated for a moment.

To be honest, he had not thought about Selina at all.

The photo had been hovering at the back of his mind, enveloping him in uneasiness.

Selina felt a little sulky that Matthew seemed to be preoccupied.

"Did you not miss me at all?" Selina asked again.

Matthew composed himself and put on a cheerful tone.

"I miss you every moment of the day," Matthew answered.

Selina was pleased at his words.

"Me too. Okay then, I won't bother you now. See you later."

"All right."

After hanging up the phone, Matthew stared blankly into space for some time.

Finally, he picked up his phone.

He called Reid.

"Reid, you win. Let's meet up."

On the other end of the phone, Reid smiled brazenly.

He had expected that Matthew would call him.

"Okay, we'll meet in an hour."

At his villa, Reid was getting ready to go out.

Caroline stopped Reid in his tracks and asked, "Where are you going?"

She had noticed that Reid seemed to be hiding something from her.
