Chapter 1123
Confusion shed across Selina''s eyes. "I really can''t remember. He just looks so familiar, but nothinges to mind at all."
Natalie patted her shoulder andforted her, saying, "Don''t push yourself too hard. Every time that manes, he only looks into the vi from the outside, and has done nothing so far, so don''t worry too much about it."
It was also for that reason that Natalie was yet to inform Tobias about the matter.
Ever since Remington''s incident back then, Natalie knew how much stress Tobias was enduring. She didn''t want to put him under so much pressure again.
In her eyes, the mysterious man who appeared around the house might not be a big deal. Perhaps he was just curious to see what the Whitlock family''s vi looked like.
Selina smiled. "I know. You too, Natalie. It''s definitely not a big deal. Who knows, maybe he''s just interested to see what the Whitlock family is like. You shouldn''t think too much about it as well."
Her words offort were really simr to what
Natalie was thinking.
Natalie smiled too. "Well, have fun with Hayden for today, then. I''ll wait for you at home."
"Sure." Selina nodded, bid Natalie farewell and turned around to go downstairs.
As soon as she turned around, the smile on her face disappeared as it morphed into a face full of worry.
If the mysterious man who lingered near the vi wasn''t familiar to her, and if it weren''t for Caroline who had appeared on the footage, she would''ve thought the same way as Natalie.
However, right then...
Her eyes gleamed with a sh of light.
What on earth was going on?
She was wondering if Caroline was up to something again, and pondered whether she should go and look for her or not.
Just as she was walking down the stairs with a head full of thoughts, Matthew was already waiting for her in the living room.
He was the only one there. Peter and Hayden were nowhere to be seen.
Selina looked around and asked, "Where are they?"
Matthew smiled helplessly. "Hayden said that his baseball cap didn''t look good enough, so he asked Grandpa to pick one for him." Selina was speechless.
No wonder Natalie had mentioned that Hayden would take a while to get ready.
She couldn''t help but mock him. "That brat is really shameless and self-obsessed."
Matthew chuckled. "Everyone wants to look good. You''re the same."
Selina raised her eyebrows. "Am I?"
"Of course, look, you''ve dressed up beautifully too," he answered as he sized Selina up.
She then looked down at the sportswear that she was wearing.
She had just casually picked a set of sportswear from her closet without even caring if it looked good or not. She wasn''t trying to dress up.
Selina proved her innocence hurriedly, saying, "I didn''t wear this to look nice, I just picked an outfit randomly."
"Is that so?" Matthew''s tone suddenly sounded as if it had a hidden meaning. "Then I guess my little girl looks really gorgeous regardless of what she''s wearing."N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.
Selina blushed after Matthew called her that.
At the same time, Peter and Hayden walked down
the stairs.
Hayden looked especially handsome wearing a ck and white baseball cap.
As soon as he walked down, he asked Selina, ''Aunt, does my baseball cap look good?"
Selina squeezed out a smile. "It''s alright."
Hayden felt dejected.
He then turned to Matthew. "Mr. Perry, does my cap look good?"
"It looks great." Matthew''s smile was like a spring breeze.
His words cheered Hayden up at once.
Hayden then winked at Selina. "Aunt, your taste is bad, take a look at Mr. Perry''s good taste!"
As soon as Hayden said that, Matthew interjected, "Mr. Perry? You should call me your uncle."
Hayden blinked.
He pulled Selina aside and asked softly, "Aunt, I thought you weren''t dating Mr. Perry anymore? Aren''t you both just acting?" Selina didn''t know how to answer the question.
She believed that no one had told Hayden about the matter, so how did he know that she had been acting with Matthew in the past?
She looked at Hayden in shock. "Where did you
hear of such a thing?"
Hayden replied proudly, "I eavesdropped on Mom and Grandma''s conversationst time."
Selina was at a loss for words
"You naughty boy!" she eximed as she poked Hayden on the forehead.
She finally understood why Cecilia
wanted her to sleep with Matthew in
el
the same bedroom when Peter first came back, Cecilia was probably worried that Hayden would find out that they were sleeping in separate bedrooms, and would spill the beans in front of Peter. Unexpectedly, he had already known that the two of them were just acting in front of Peter.
Hayden''sughter became even more arrogant.
Selina whispered to him, "Stopughing, if your great-grandfather hears you, you''ll be done for."
"Don''t worry Aunt, I know what I''m doing," Hayden replied, much like a young adult.
Selina praised him in her heart for being so smart.
She then added, "But Matthew and I are no longer acting."
"Really?" Hayden''s big eyes were wide open.
"Of course."
Hayden held his hands over his heart and gushed,
"Oh my gosh."
Selina felt that Hayden''s reaction was rather weird. "What''s wrong with you?"
Haydenmented, "I didn''t expect an excellent man like Uncle Perry to
fancy an average woman like you. There must be some kind of mistake
for a perfect guy like Uncle Perry to end up with such an imperfect girlfriend."
Selina had no idea how to respond.
She could no longer control herself, and wanted to give Hayden a hit.
Hayden reacted quickly as he ran over to Peter in an instant.
She ran after him, and was obviously criticized by Peter. "Look at you, Selina. You''re already a grown up, and yet you''re acting like a child."
Hayden pulled a funny face at Selina, which made her grit her teeth. However, with Peter there, it would be difficult for her to do or say anything in
response.
Matthew enjoyed the entire scene at a side.
A wide smile appeared on his face.
He liked it when Selina acted like that.
In Peter''s eyes, it was ridiculous that she was angry with a child as young as Hayden, but in Matthew''s eyes, she looked innocent and cute.
It was probably because anything that she did would be perceived well in the eyes of her lover.
After the group of people set off, their first stop was a fast food restaurant that sold all kinds of burgers and soft drinks.
Hayden, of course, ordered a lot of junk food.
With Natalie usually around, there was no chance for him to eat such things. Since he had a rare
el
opportunity, he definitely sucke
to
enjoy as much food as he could.
Selina liked soft drinks as well. Seeing that Hayden had ordered a bunch of them, she picked up a cup of coke and wanted to drink it, but was
stopped by Peter.
"You''re trying to get pregnant, how can you drink such things? You''re not allowed to drink these!" he eximed righteously.
Selina was left speechless.
She was puzzled. Since when was she trying to get pregnant?
