Chapter 1202 Eating For Two
"But my husband seems to love her..." Erica said to Can't Do Anything. This was a sore spot for her. If Matthew wasn't still in love with Phoebe, Erica would have asked him to destroy that woman. Can't Do Anything tried to reassure her. "No way!"
"Yes way. It's true. It's been going on for years, apparently. You must have heard about it. Everyone in the city knows Matthew has a crush on someone else."
"Yeah, I've heard the rumors. Who hasn't? But if he really loved Phoebe, he wouldn't have married you. Think about it: why would he do that? You're the one in his heart."
Many people had said this to Erica, and she knew they were right. But she just couldn't get rid of that niggling doubt that Matthew still carried a torch for Phoebe.
When Erica didn't text him back right away, Can't Do Anything sent her another message. "What you need is more spice in your marriage. Try your best to love him, or-failing that make him fall in love with you. Stranger things have happened. Why not give it a shot?"
Can't Do Anything was right, though. Erica knew that. But he or she still couldn't banish all of Erica's doubts and worries. "I'm still not sure..." Erica tapped out.
"Then you can test your husband!"
"Test him? How?"
This time, Can't Do Anything didn't text back immediately. After a while, Erica received a call from Matthew. "I'd like you to come downstairs."
"You're back home?"
"Yes."
"Let me guess: Phoebe's with you. I'll pass, thanks."
Massaging his eyebrows, Matthew wondered, 'Are all women like that?" "Didn't you want her to come here?"
The rest of her words caught in her throat. Oh, yes, she remembered now. She told Matthew that she was going to invite Phoebe to come to the villa and claim her status as the hostess. It was a momentary flash
