Chapter 852


    Natalie was quite surprised too.


    She knew that as the daughter of the wealthy and prestigious Whitlock family, there were plenty of men who would want to get close to Selina, but there was absolutely no need for Matthew to do that.


    His background was not far off from the Whitlock family''s, so he absolutely didn''t have to try and get on Selina''s good side.


    Moreover, it was so rare for a noble man like that to be willing to lower himself to tie a woman''s shoces.


    Natalie''s impression of him instantly improved.


    Matthew was unlike most of the upper ss.


    It was not that he wasn''t noble. On the contrary, Matthew radiated ss. It was obvious that he was not an ordinary person.


    However, he did not give off the aloof feeling that other nobles did. Instead, he had an aura of inexplicable cordiality, like a warm spring breeze. Meanwhile, Matthew stood up again.


    He smiled at Selina with a hint of affection in his eyes. "You''re too careless. You didn''t even know that your shoces got loose."


    Selina''s eyes widened as she looked at Matthew.


    "I''m leaving now. Take your time to walk around."


    After Matthew left, Selina came back to her senses.


    She was confused.N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    Matthew had just tied her shoces in front of Natalie and in public with no regard for other people''s opinions. He had not put on any airs at all either. How could this man act as if it was nothing?


    "Is your brain still there?" Natalie poked at Selina''s forehead.


    Selina grounded herself.


    She forced a smile. "I''m fine."


    She was a little worried that the whole shoce incident would cause Natalie to raise a brow and find her rtionship with Matthew unusual. However, she quickly dismissed the idea soon after.


    There was nothing unusual between her and Matthew. Nothing shady had happened between them. Both of them were innocent.


    She had simply asked Matthew to introduce someone to her. Matthew had volunteered for that position, and that was all.


    "Matthew is really quite decent. He''s down to earth and doesn''t put on airs despite his powerful position," Natalie couldn''t help but praise. Hearing Natalie''s words, Selina knew that Natalie hadn''t thought much about it.


    She replied dryly, "Yeah, he really doesn''t put on airs."


    "Whoever his future girlfriend is must be very lucky," Natalie smiled and said. "He''s both gentle and considerate."


    Selina''s heart skipped a beat.


    Natalie hadn''t specified anyone at all, she just mentioned it casually. Nheless, it made Selina''s heart beat faster.


    Selina had bought a lot of things, but the cashier at the counter refused to let her pay.


    The cashier smiled and said, "You don''t have to pay, Miss Selina. All of your bills have been sent to our boss'' friend. There''s no need for you to pay." Selina was speechless.


    She knew immediately who this generous person was.


    Who else could it be but Matthew?


    Natalie thought the same.


    After all, they had just bumped into him. It was very likely that Matthew was behind this.


    Natalie knew that Selina was not short of money, but Matthew was still quite the gentleman. He had paid the bill for his friend''s sister.


    Natalie took the credit card back from the cashier and put it in Selina''s bag. "See, Selina. Someone paid for you! Even your n to splurge has been thwarted."


    There was a hint of teasing in Natalie''s words.


    An awkward smile appeared on Selina''s face.


    From then on, Selina''s thoughts were totally upied by Matthew.


    Especially the image of when Matthew bent down to tie her shoces, which was constantly on rey in her mind.


    Selina was truly shocked.


    There had never been a man who would bend down to tie her shoces.


    Selina was in no mood to shop after that. She tugged at Natalie, insisting on going home.


    "Why are we going back so early?" Natalie''s eyes shed with surprise.


    "Let''s go back to have lunch. I want to eat the lunch my mom cooked," Selina replied casually.


    To tell the truth, that was not the


    case at all. She was afraid that

    She thought that if they were having lunch at home, it was very unlikely that Matthew would just suddenly show up there too.


    Natalie did not think too much about it and agreed to go home.


    Cecilia was surprised when Natalie and Selina returned home so quickly. Selina normally took a whole day to shop.


    "Tobias thought that you wouldn''t be back so quickly either, so he''s gone to the office," Ceciliamented.


    Natalie smiled. "It''s okay. He''s busy with his work too. I''ll stay at home with Selina."


    Cecilia then went to prepare lunch with the servants while Natalie sat on the sofa with Selina.


    Selina was in a constant trance.


    Natalie stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Selina''s eyes. "Selina, what are you thinking about?" There was a trace of panic in Selina''s eyes. "Nothing, just wondering what we''re eating for


    lunch."


    Natalie


    ckled. "You''re even more


    of a glutton than I am. To think that can


    you


    get so lost in your tho


    just thinking about lunch."  S


    Selina grinned ufortably.


    With the help of a few servants, lunch was soon ready. The table was full of delicacies.


    In the middle of the meal, Selina suddenly bit her fork. Something had shed in her mind.


    She suddenly stood up as if she had been agitated by something.


    Her action startled Natalie and Cecilia as they both turned to look at her.


    Selina also realized that she had lost herposure.


    She sat down immediately. "It''s nothing, I''m fine. Let''s eat."


    Natalie and Cecilia looked at each other speechlessly.


    Selina ate her lunch quickly, then flew to her room.


    Cecilia stared at Selina''s bedroom to which she had just disappeared into with concern.


    Natalie could guess what Cecilia was thinking about.


    She said softly, "Mom, don''t worry. She''s alright. She was in a good state when I went shopping with her today."


    Actually, Natalie was not telling the truth.


    Selina had been absent-minded all morning, but Natalie did not want to tell Cecilia about it.


    As a mother, she would always worry about her daughter. Natalie did not want Cecilia to worry too much.


    Cecilia sighed. "That girl might be optimistic on the outside, but the truth is, she''s just hiding all her thoughts deep in her heart."


    Natalie pursed her lips.


    Indeed, that was how Selina was.


    She would neverin no matter how much pain she was in, and would always put on a joyful face on the outside.


    "I hope she''s really broken up with that man for good this time," Cecilia added.


    Natalie continued, "Mom, I think it''s true this time. I don''t know why, but I have a strong feeling that it''s for real."


    Cecilia shook her head helplessly. "Natalie, you don''t understand. That girl has been hurt countless times over the years, but still they made up in the end. This time, I too think that she really wants to leave that man. However, I''m afraid, afraid that it will still be in vain in the end.


    Hearing Cecilia''s words, Natalie instantly became worried. She thought that she had better give Selina some advice when she had the time.


    Selina entered her room.


    Selina had suddenly thought of something goosebump-inducing at the dining table.
