Selina didn't respond at all.

Matthew stood up quietly.

He put on his clothes, kissed Selina on the forehead, and left the bedroom.

As soon as Matthew left the bedroom, Selina's eyes suddenly opened.

Matthew went downstairs.

Ludwik was extremely anxious. "Matthew, what's wrong with Selina? She is carrying the Perry family's baby right now. She must not be in a bad mood."

Matthew was unhappy with what Ludwik had said.

He glanced at Ludwik and said, "Dad, are you worried about your daughter-in-law or your unborn descendant of the Perry family?"

Ludwik was at a loss for words.

He knew that his son valued Selina a lot. He hurriedly said, "No, I am worried about her as well. I'm worried about her and the baby. What's wrong? Did you two have a fight?" "No." Matthew said, "Something happened. Selina may not be in a good mood during this period of time. Just take note of that,"

Ludwik instantly became worried. "Then, will the baby in her belly be affected?"

Matthew glanced coldly at Ludwik. "Compared to the child in her belly, I'm more worried about Selina."

Ludwik was taken aback by his response.

"Alright, alright, alright. I won't mention the baby anymore." Ludwik continued, "You should take good care of Selina and make her feel better. No matter how big of a matter it is, it's not as important as the child in her belly,"

Ludwik said that he wouldn't mention the baby, but he still couldn't help bringing it up.

The lights in the living room fell on Matthew, leaving him to bask under the faint lighting.

He said, "Dad, I don't need you to remind me of that. Trust me, I've got it covered,"

Matthew decided not to return to the company for the time being and stay at home with Selina until she felt better.

Just as Matthew and Ludwik were downstairs, Selina held her phone tightly in her hands.

The phone suddenly rang.

Selina immediately picked up the call.

"How's the investigation going?" Her tone was blatantly tense.

On the other end of the line, a male voice spoke in a respectful tone, "Miss Whitlock, Nadia does have a husband. Her husband is being held in prison. I heard that he offended someone powerful. Nadia brought money to bail her husband out several times, but she did not succeed."
