True Love Waits

Chapter 1308 Who Will Be The Winner

Fanya just ignored Phoebe, picked up her bag, and walked out of the Su family residence.

Left alone in the living room, Phoebe slumped against the cushions. At this moment, she knew how desperate Tessie felt when she found out that she would be thrown into the slum. She had offended Matthew, and the Su family didn't want to help her appease him.

So now, to avoid losing ten million dollars and being thrown into the slum, she must listen to Camille and follow her advice.

The next morning, Erica got up very early because she had an event to attend.

At the breakfast table, she just stared at the food in front of her blankly. She had no appetite at all.

Looking at the food reminded her of what Matthew did to her last night.

She felt like whatever she ate right now was similar to that thing in her mouth the other night.

She stole a glance at the man opposite her, who was eating breakfast heartily.

'Humph! Such a jerk!'

Feeling a dull pain, she subconsciously rubbed her face.

"Why are you not eating?" Matthew's voice startled her, and she quickly put down her hand.

Her face flushed inexplicably upon meeting his eyes. "I...I'm not hungry," she stuttered.

"Don't you like the food?" he asked. He wondered why, because the other day, she ate the same breakfast with a big appetite.

"No, the food is fine." She felt embarrassed. Matthew acted as if nothing had happened while she kept on thinking about last night. To shake those thoughts off her mind, she picked up a bun with the chopsticks and put it into her mouth.
