Chapter 1082
"How could this be? What a horrible death," Cecilia murmured.
She knew that some people from animal abuse groups would deliberately torture dogs, so she didn''t think too much about it.
Natalie thought for a while and said, "Why don''t we hide this from Selina? At least, it''s better for her to think that Rocky is still missing instead of telling her that it''s dead."
Cecilia agreed with Natalie''s suggestion.
She nodded and said, "Yes, don''t tell Selina. Selina is too kind-hearted. She would cry if she found out."
Nadia was holding something in her hand.
It was a small, ck, square iron box the size of a fingernail. There were numerous holes in the small iron box.
This was what she had gotten from that dog''s body.
She did not know what it was either.
However, she thought that it was impossible for a normal dog to have this kind of thing in its body, so she kept it.
She had a feeling that it was useful.
Although she still did not know what it was, she felt that it would definitelye in handy in the future.
When Caroline came just now, Nadia did not tell her about it.
After all, she did not fully trust Caroline yet.
This woman was all talk as far as she was concerned. It was hard to tell whether she was an enemy or a friend. As for Caroline, Nadia felt that she had to continue observing her.
In this era, no one could be trusted.
In the afternoon, Cecilia went back. Peter went to take a nap as well, so there was only Selina left at home.
When she walked down from the second floor, she nced at the pink door.
Selina felt a burning curiosity beginning to spark within her.
What could be inside?
She took a few steps and decided to have a look, but when she took the fifth step, she stopped.
She had forgotten that the door seemed to be locked.
She wouldn''t be able to take a look even if she tried.
She decided to badger Matthew to open the door and take a look tonight.
Selina went downstairs.
She sat on the sofa, eating potato chips while reading aic book.
She was in a good mood.
Yes, she was in a very good mood.
She hadn''t felt this good in a long time.
As for the reason, it was probably because Matthew had called her "little girl".Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.
Halfway through the meal, Erine came.
Erine lowered her voice and said, "Miss Whitlock, there''s a guest,"
Selina was stunned and said, "Who is it? Just let her in,"
Erine was in a dilemma.
She knew the person who was at the door It was a friend of Matthew''s, named Joycelyn.
If Matthew was here, Erina would definitely let Joycelyne in immediately.
However, Matthew was not there at that moment. There were only Selina and Peter in the house. Erina didn''t think it was suitable, so she asked Joycelyn to wait at the door.
"Miss Whitlock, it''s Joycelyn," Erine said.
The potato chips in Selina''s hands fell on the sofa.
Her good mood hadpletely dissipated.
Selina jumped off the sofa.
Hah, she even had the nerve toe here.
As she approached the gate of the vi, as expected, Selina saw Joycelyn''s face.
She wore a white dress like before and her ck, long hair covered her shoulders. She was a really elegantdy, a real ''green tea''.
Selina walked over.
She looked at Joycelyn from top to bottom.
Joycelyn looked at Selina as well.
"What are you doing here?" Selina opened her mouth first.
Joycelyn smiled.
Her smile was really gentle. When she smiled, a mouthful of white teeth was revealed. "A few days ago, Matthew met my parents. My parents asked me to bring something to Matthew, so I came here,"
There was indeed a gift box in her hand.
Selina''s head was buzzing.
Matthew and Joycelyn did not have dinner alone that day, but went to meet with Joycelyn''s parents?
Their rtionship had progressed to the level of meeting each other''s parents?
Hearing that, Selina''s heart throbbed with pain.
Joycelyn looked into the house again and asked, "Is Matthew here? I need to give it to him,"
She actually knew that Matthew was
not here. She was just here to find out the truth. That day, when she saw Selina having a meal with another man as well as Matthew''s weird attitude, Joycelyn suspected that there was something wrong between Selina and Matthew.
Thus, she came to the Perry family vi with the excuse of sending the item, so that she could see if Selina was still there.
However, Selina was present, which made Joycelyn somewhat disappointed.
Selina sneered, "Don''t you know that Matthew is at thepany at this time of day? What do you mean bying to the Perry family vi at this hour? Are youing as a thief?"
Selina emphasized on the words ing as a thief".
Joycelyn''s expression did not change.
She smiled and said, "That day, Matthew told my parents that thepany''s affairs were catching with him so he wanted to take a break Therefore, I thought he would not stay in thepany all the time like before. I thought he would rest at home,"
After that, she looked at Selina and asked, "Miss Whitlock, don''t you agree with me?"
Selina was really furious.
"He''s not here. Please leave!"
Joycelyn handed the gift box in her hand to Selina and said, "Please tell Matthew that I''ve been here. Besides, this is a gift from my parents to Matthew. Please hand it over to Matthew, alright?"
Joycelyn spoke softly.
Selina didn''t take the gift from Joycelyn.
Joycelyn''s hand, which held the gift box, remained fixed in midair.
However, she did not feel awkward at all. Instead, she was still smiling.
Selina really wanted to rip the smile off of Joycelyn''s face.
She was really a b*tch.
"I won''t ept it, nor will I tell Matthew about it. You should give it to him yourself!" Selina said impatiently.
Joycelyn smiled.
She put the gift box at the corner of the gate and said, "Since I have brought it here, there is no reason to bring it back. I will put it here. Matthew should see it when hees back,"
Hearing Joycelyn call the name "Matthew", Selina felt extremely annoyed.
She nced at Joycelyn coldly and said, "Stop pretending. I know why you are here. Shouldn''t you be angry to see me here?"
In her mind, Joycelyn was now with Matthew and he had met her parents as well. The rtionship between them had been confirmed, hadn''t it?
Since it was confirmed, Joycelyn should be furious when she saw that Matthew''s ex-wife was still here, shouldn''t she?
Joycelyn still smiled tenderly, as if no matter what Selina said, it could not disperse the gentle smile on her
lips. "I''m not angry at all. He has
эт
already met with my parents, so why
should get angry? Besides, my Parents have taught me to be
generous. Don''t you think so, Miss Whitlock?"
Although she was really disappointed to see Selena''s presence at the Perry family vi, she still concluded that there were some problems between
Matthew and Selina. Otherwise, Selina would not be so provocative.
Selina mocked her said, "Do you think I''m interested in watching your fake smile and listening to your lies?"
With that, Selina turned around and left.
If she didn''t leave now, she felt that she would explode due to her anger.
Looking at Selina''s leaving silhouette, Joycelyn''s eyes shed with a touch of deep thought and the corners of her mouth slightly curled.
Selina went back to the sofa angrily.
Her mood had gone from good to bad in a matter of minutes.
