Matthew's heart ached when he saw how disturbed Selina was in her sleep.

He wiped off the sweat beading on Selina's forehead and soothed her, "Shh, don't be afraid, Selina. I'm here,"

Selina saw Matthew as she opened her eyes.

She sat up in an abrupt motion and slipped into Matthew's arms.

Matthew hugged Selina. "It's all my fault."

If he had been careful, such a thing would not have happened.

Selina didn't say anything as her eyes turned red.

"Did you have a nightmare?" Matthew asked softly.

Selina nodded.

"Don't be afraid. It's just a dream. It's all over now," Matthew said.

Selina's gaze wavered.

After a while, she lifted her head and looked at Matthew with a much clearer gaze. "Matthew, tell me everything you've found out."

Matthew did not try to hide anything from her. "My men went to the US to bring Caroline back, but her father wanted to save her and the gun her father was holding misfired. Her dad died on the spot. It's probably because of that that she has taken such an extreme step today."

Selina's breath was caught in her chest.

No wonder Caroline was so determined to fight till the end. Selina saw the malice in her eyes. Caroline probably thought that it was Selina who sent the men to the US.

Matthew stared at Selina. "I know that you are feeling sad right now, but it has nothing to do with you. Regardless of whether it's Caroline's father's death or her death, it has nothing to do with you. Don't think too much about it."

Selina didn't say anything but pursed her lips tightly.

After a long while, she spoke, "What about Brennan?"

"He's fine. The bullet didn't hit any vital parts of his body."

"What else have you found out besides these?" Selina gazed deeply into Matthew's eyes.

Matthew hesitated for a moment. "Caroline and Saoirse have been in touch before this, and she also made use of Brennan as well." "I know." Selina immediately added, "This matter has nothing to do with Brennan,"
