"Did she say anything to you? Did you serve her anything? It must have been an enjoyable dinner," Selina continued on. "Selina, it was just a normal dinner," Matthew started to look uncomfortable.

"A normal dinner?" Selina raised her voice, "I don't believe that Saoirse wouls just have a 'normal dinner' with you."

"Selina, why won't you trust me?" Matthew raised his voice as well.

Selina bit her lips, her eyes suddenly reddened.

Matthew felt as if something had pierced his heart.

He pulled over the car and lifted Selina's face.

His eyes were filled with guilt, pain, and sadness, "Selina, I shouldn't have said that just now. I'm the one who neglected your feelings, it's all my fault," he apologized to her.

Selina's tears started to stream down her face.

She knew that she was just trying to pick a fight.

Matthew had informed her when he went out to dinner with Saoirse, even when he didn't need to do so, he had nothing to hide from her.

However, even though she knew that, she still couldn't control her emotions.

She had tried to suppress her feelings for too long, and she needed to vent. Anything could set her off.

Matthew having dinner with Saoirse was the trigger.

When he saw her tears, Matthew's heart ached for her.

His lips found its way to her face, kissing away her tears.

He wrapped Selina into a tight embrace.

His warm temperature was a comfort to her.

Selina tried to push Matthew away but to no avail. In the end, she just surrendered and leaned into his embrace.

She felt like she was freezing and Matthew was her only warmth; it was a warmth she was desperate for.

"Matthew, I couldn't control myself, I lost my temper," Selina mumbled, "I was unreasonable," she added.

"You were not unreasonable," Matthew's voice was hoarse, "Selina, you can vent your anger at me, don't keep it in, I can take it,"

Selina just shook her head, "I'm not angry anymore, I just want you to hold me," she said.

Time passed, it was soon late at night.

"Selina, let's drive home first, I'll continue to hold you when we reach," Matthew sounded out.
