Chapter 174 They Were Childhood Sweethearts Who Grew Up Together

It was clear that Zoe was displeased with Matthew’s lack of care for his own health.

There was even a hint of blame in her tone.

Aurelia silently sipped her water as she listened on.

Upon hearing the mention of insomnia, Gordon instantly shifted his gaze toward Aurelia, Matthew’s recent sleep issues had significantly improved, all thanks to Aurelia.

It seemed as if Matthew had never told Zoe about this.

For reasons unknown, he felt as though Zoe’s arrival had somehow driven a wedge between Aurelia and Matthew, creating a huge rift between them.

After Zoe spoke some more, she appeared somewhat weary. Seeing this, Matthew escorted Zoe back to her hospital ward, while Gordon sa behind to take care of Aurelia.

“Um… Ms. Souza and Matthew grew up together when they were young, and also…”

Gordon felt it was necessary to clarify the relationship between Zoe and Matthew, to prevent any misunderstandings from arising with Aurelia.

From the introduction given by Gordon, Aurelia came to understand the relationship between

the two.

Zoe was the daughter of Matthew’s housekeeper.

Following an unforeseen incident, Zoe’s mother sacrificed her life to protect Matthew. From that day forward, Matthew took responsibility for everything in Zoe’s life.

A few days ago, due to feeling unwell, she was admitted to the hospital. The diagnosis revealed some heart issues, and surgery was needed within the next couple of days. That was why Matthew had to rush over from Jacaster.

Gordon particularly emphasized that the relationship between the two was akin to siblings, and that Matthew took care of Zoe as if she was his sister.

After the death of Zoe’s mother years ago, Mabel had sought out Zoe’s other family members. However, none of them wanted an extra burden, so Mabel took it upon herself to raise Zoe.

Upon hearing this, having understood the whole story, Aurelia chuckled and said. “I see.”
