Chapter 1638
Yesseca was silent.
She wanted to tell Cassie that it was not the case, but Cassie did not allow her to interrupt.
"I took a close look at his face. He's very handsome, and even I felt tempted, but that's not enough. Yesseca, he's a divorced man with a child, and you're not suited to be a stepmother. The Whitlock boy is more compatible with you. Honestly, you should choose him. I'm so much older than you, and I have seen more of this world than you..."
Yesseca was about to faint from Cassie's words.
When Cassie stopped for a moment, Yesseca took this opportunity and replied hastily, "Cassie, it's really not what you think, there's nothing going on between us."
"Then why did he come here, he wasn't here to buy clothes!"
"He was looking for me to..." Yesseca felt as though her words were stuck in her throat.
Wait, why did Tremaine look for her?
After a customer came in, Cassie walked away. It was as though she'd just woken up from a dream.
Yesseca was puzzled.
Why had Tremaine come by to look for her today, was it just to take her out for a meal?
That did not seem right.
She was the one who had paid for lunch, because Tremaine had not had cash on him.
Perhaps he'd wanted to ask her to pay for the meal.
Even so, Yesseca also felt that something was fishy.
Why would Tremaine want to get a free meal when he was so rich?
In a daze, the phone suddenly rang.
The call was from Selina.
That day, Kylin and Selina had discussed the issue of holding Yesseca's hand. Selina had thought that Kylin was overreacting and told him that he should take more initiative. After listening to Matthew's explanation, Selina realized that she was wrong.
She thought about it again and realized that Kylin might have been too abrupt.
She had to say something to Yesseca to ensure her that Kylin was not a pervert.
"Hello," greeted Yesseca.
"Hi, Yesseca, what are you doing now?"
"I'm working."
"How have you been at work lately?"
"Very good," Yesseca said with a smile.
Upon hearing Yesseca's voice on the phone, she seemed to be in a good mood. Selina felt relieved. "Yesseca, Kylin has been feeling very guilty these past two days, but do you know why?"
Yesseca was taken aback. "Guilty?"
"Yes, I heard that it was because he held your hand, which made you unhappy," said Selina softly.
Yesseca was speechless.
She was also a little embarrassed.
It was because she wasn't aware that Selina knew about this.
"I... I..." Yesseca didn't know how to respond.
"Yesseca, Kylin told me that he was very sorry. He was impulsive that day, but he is not a man who is casual with these things. Let me reassure you, he did not mean to do it," explained Selina.
As Selina spoke, Yesseca became even more embarrassed.
In fact, she had not paid much attention to what happened that day. She was not stupid, and she knew that Kylin was not the kind of man who would take advantage of a woman. Yesseca did not expect Selina to call her just to explain this.
Yesseca said, "It's okay, Selina. It's just a small matter. I'm not mad at him."
"Really?"
"Yes!" Yesseca nodded her head forcefully.
Selina breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled and said, "It's good that you didn't take it to heart. I was afraid that you might have done that." After a pause, Selina said, "Let's have dinner tonight. I'll ask Erine to order your favorite dishes. Please come."
Yesseca had no choice but to agree after hearing this. "Since you have invited me, I'll come."
"Great! Kylin will pick you up later," Selina said.
With that, Yesseca hesitated for a moment.
Hastily, Selina added, "If you don't let him, it will show that you are still angry at him. If you're angry at him, I'll ask Matthew to pick you up."
In a trice, Yesseca replied, "Then you can ask him to pick me up."
After Selina's call, Matthew was peeling some pine nuts next to her.
Recently, she'd been craving pine nuts.
They were tasty, but difficult to peel. Thus, Matthew peeled them for her.
After that, Selina put aside the phone. "How are you so smart? You're right again."
That day, Selina had wanted to call Yesseca, as she was afraid that
told her, not to call, saying that Yesseca was not angry at all. Ultimately, after Selina's call with her she found that Matthew was right.
Yesseca would be angry. Mat
Matthew placed the peeled pine nuts on Selina's palm.
"How did you know that Yesseca wouldn't get angry? Didn't you say that Yesseca is a very conservative girl?" Selina asked as she ate the pine nuts. Matthew smiled and said, "Yesseca has a good point. She is like her brother. As she is a generous person, she wouldn't care too much about these small matters."
Selina nodded. "That's true. Lothar was a generous person."
Matthew continued, "So, she wouldn't care about Kyi in's behavior. Although she is conservative, she is not that childish. She wouldn't cry because of something like that. Don't worry."
Selina patted Matthew's head gently. "What do you have in your head, you're so smart."
"
"The same thing as you do."
"I think you are much smarter than me."
"Maybe you could listen and think more," concluded Matthew.
With that, Selina thought about it and replied, "That takes a lot of time. I don't want to listen or think too.
much. I have you, and that is enough. I won't have to waste my time thinking."
As she spoke, Matthew broke into a burst of laughter.
He held Selina in his arms and put his chin on her forehead. "Silly girl, it's enough to have me. You made the best decision."
Closing her eyes, Selina smiled.
As Matthew's gaze fell on Selina's face, it was as though ripples were forming in his heart.
Frankly, Selina wasn't a 16-year-old
girl who was wearing a beautiful red dress anymore. Furthermore, she wasn't even young, but when she smiled a shallow dimple appeared on her white cheeks. Matthew felt moved by this.
"By the way, the doctor said that I might give birth in less than twenty days," said Selina as she touched her belly. "Are you happy?"
"Of course."
"Are you looking forward to it?"
"Yup, definitely."This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Are you excited?"
"I am very excited!"
Selina rolled her eyes. "Since you're so excited about the birth of our child, will you dote on the child more than me?"
Matthew knew that Selina had something else to say.
He gently patted her cheek. "Don't worry. You're the one that I will dote on the most. You will always be number one." "That's good," Selina smiled and
said.
