True Love Waits

Chapter 1144 He Acted Like Her Lackey

When the ceremony was over, Matthew and Phoebe saw the guests out at the entrance of the venue, while Erica quietly awaited them in a corner.

Even so, knowing that she was Matthew's wife, quite a few people still came by to say goodbye to Erica.

It was quite clear from their curious eyes that they had a lot of questions on their mind, but in light of the occasion, they decided to set aside their curiosity and leave with a brief goodbye. About twenty minutes later, Matthew came in and found Erica, who was standing in the corner. "We can go now," he said.

"Oh... Okay!" She followed him out.

Phoebe was waiting for them just outside. When she saw Matthew and Erica, she took her bag from the staff and walked with them to the parking lot.

As they walked, Matthew suddenly spoke. "I'll ask my assistant to take you back home."

Just as Erica wondered who he was talking to, Phoebe stopped and stood in front of him. "Matthew, I've sorted out Nathan's belongings. I want to give some of them to you. Can we go to his house?" After a brief pause, Matthew nodded, "Sure." Then he looked at Erica. "You..."

Erica felt it would be inappropriate for her to join them because she didn't know Nathan personally. Just as Matthew was about to say something, she cut him short. "Actually, I am supposed to meet my friend this afternoon to buy some stationeries. Why don't you go ahead? I can take a taxi home."

Matthew shot a baleful glance at her and said, "Who are you supposed to meet up with? You've already made a friend at school?"

"No, it's Hya... Well, you don't know him anyway. He is my friend from A Country and now he's transferred to my school. Don't worry about me. I'll be fine!" In truth, she never had an appointment with Hyatt; she had just made up an excuse to leave.

"Wait!" Matthew stopped her.

Erica turned around in confusion.
