Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 9 Matthew's Trouble

The next morning, Selena covered the marks on her face with foundation and went to the studio.

The studio was located in a two-story commercial building. She only worked part-time here, so she didn't need to punch in regularly but had to attend the monthly summary meeting. Matthew used to be the first one there, but he arrived half an hour late this time. He wore the same suit as yesterday and looked rushed.

Selena stopped fidgeting with her pen when she saw him. She had a feeling that something bad had happened to Matthew.

"Sorry for being so late today," Matthew said as he walked up to his seat at the front of the room. He noticed Selena's worried expression and smiled apologetically.

People presented their summaries as usual. After the meeting ended, Selena planned on leaving with everyone else but when she saw that Matthew hadn't moved, she decided to check up on him.

"Something happened to Sarah's family," Matthew said wearily while rubbing his forehead. His voice was hoarse. It seemed that he hadn't slept all night long. He hesitated before continuing, "I'm considering selling our studio, but I don't know how to tell everyone."
