Chapter 1639
In that moment, the phone suddenly rang.
Matthew stood up. "I'll take this call."
Selina had realized something.
For the past two days, Matthew had started leaving the room to pick up the phone. It seemed as if he did not want to answer calls in front of her anymore.
She couldn't help but tease him. "You're not doing anything to be guilty for, are you? Is that's why you're always taking calls away from me?" Of course, she knew it was impossible. She'd mentioned it offhandedly.
A smile flashed across Matthew's eyes. "It's all about work. I was afraid that you might be annoyed. If you want to hear it, I can speak here." Selina waved her hand. "Forget it. I don't want to hear it."
Matthew left with his phone.
Only when Matthew was sure that Selina was out of earshot did he take the call.
"Sir." A low male voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Do you have any intel on her whereabouts?" Matthew asked.
"Nothing much yet, but we've found that she recently appeared in the neighborhood where Miss Cowell lives."
Matthew held his breath.
After a few beats, he said, "Continue investigating. Inform me as soon as you find her."
An undecipherable light flashed in Matthew's eyes after hanging up the phone.
Yesseca had seen Lothar through the window, and Essie had appeared in Yesseca's neighborhood. What kind of connection was there between them?
Essie shouldn't have seen Yesseca before, nor should she know of her existence. Why would she appear in Yesseca's vicinity?
These were very complicated matters, and Matthew found them perplexing.
Kyi in's car pulled up at the entrance of the mall that Yesseca worked at.
Yesseca got into the car.
After getting into the car, Kylin greeted her and started the engine. He did not say anything else after that.
After arriving at the Perry family's villa, Kyi in said, "Yesseca, I hope you don't mind what I did that day."
Yesseca, however, smiled. "I don't, but you apparently seem to mind."
Kyi in was taken aback.
Seeing Yesseca's smiling eyes, Kyi in suddenly understood.
He also smiled. "You're right, I keep thinking about it."
At this moment, the estrangement between the two seemed to have been resolved. After getting out of the car, Yesseca said, "I heard from Selina that Erine has prepared a lot of nice dishes. We should hurry, I'm getting really hungry."
After that, Yesseca quickened her pace and Kyi in followed behind her.
Looking at the back of the cheerful girl in front of him, Kylin felt a warmth in his heart.
After this incident, he realized that he'd started liking Yesseca even more.
She was pure but not childish or immature. She was definitely someone worth pursuing.
Kylin hurriedly walked forward and caught up with Yesseca.
That night, Erine had outdone herself with the amount of dishes she made, all of which Yesseca liked to eat.
Selina looked at Yesseca. Compared to the last time she saw Yesseca, she seemed much better now. Her complexion had improved tremendously. After dinner, Matthew received a phone call saying that he needed to go to the company.
Matthew offered to drop Yesseca off on the way.
Yesseca agreed immediately.
Selina had a problem with it.
She pulled Matthew to the side. "Why are you sending Yesseca home? Kyi in should be the one doing that."
Matthew smiled and said, "They'll have more opportunities in the future. For someone like Yesseca, it's better to keep a distance first."
Selina didn't fully understand him.
However, she knew that Matthew was definitely smarter than her, so there must be a reason behind his words.
Selina stopped doubting Matthew. "If you say so," she told him.
After Matthew and Kyi in left, Selina explained the reason why Kylin did not have to send Yesseca off. She didn't want him to misunderstand. Kylin smiled and said, "I understand, you don't need to explain. I keep overthinking this, I can't compare to a woman."
Selina did not understand what he meant.
Kylin did not give an explanation.
He just said, "Yesseca is a great girl. I will try my best with her. Thank you for introducing her to me."
Hearing this, Selina became happy. She didn't think much about what Kylin had said earlier.
She nodded. "Don't just thank me verbally. If you really want to thank me, then keep trying with Yesseca."
Yesseca's mood was much brighter as compared to the last time she and Matthew had been in a car together.
In the car, Yesseca was very chatty. She suggested many kinds of food that Matthew should buy for Selina, who was still pregnant.
"Today, one of my colleagues at
work told me that it's best for
pregnant women to eat goose eggs. It's good for reducing toxins. You buy some for Selina," said Yesseca.

Matthew knew that this was an old wives tale, but he smiled and replied, "Sure, I'll get some for her
tomorrow."
Yesseca smiled in response.
"I want to see what her baby looks like, I can't wait for her to give birth," said Yesseca longingly.
Matthew replied, "I don't really want her to give birth so soon."
Yesseca looked at Matthew in surprise.
Matthew explained, "It's very dangerous for women to give birth. I'm afraid that she might not be able to take it. The longer it takes for her to give birth, the better."
Yesseca understood Matthew's feelings.
"Matthew, you treat her very well," she said.
"Since your sister has married me, I'll definitely treat her well." Matthew smiled. "Yesseca, you will find someone like that one day."
"Is that so?" Yesseca said subconsciously.
"Yes." Matthew said firmly, "You're a great girl."
After a pause, Matthew changed the topic. "How is the relationship between you and Kylin?"
Yesseca's expression instantly became conflicted.
She felt confused and awkward.
"It's okay. I'm not your sister. You can tell me anything," said Matthew. His tone wasn't pressuring at all.
Yesseca nodded.
She felt like Matthew was a gentle person who could draw people in and encourage them to open up.
"Matthew, does Selina really want me to be with Kylin?" Yesseca asked.
"Yes," replied Matthew bluntly, "Kylin is her cousin. She wants you to marry him. What's more important is that Kylin has good character. He is a good man worthy of being trusted."
"I understand. Kylin is indeed a good person."
"There are many twists and turns in love. Selina doesn't want you to experience that. She hopes that you can find a smooth path."Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
"But..." Yesseca licked her dry lips. "Even if it's a winding path, I still have to experience it myself."
Matthew nodded. "That's what I've been telling her. Whether it's pain or happiness, you have to try to explore it yourself. But she still wants to help you She's afraid that you wilDsuffer otherwise."
Matthew's last sentence warmed Yesseca's heart.
"I know that Selina is nice to me. She's the one who's treated me the best apart from my brother," Yesseca said. "That's why I do not want to go
against her wishes."
There was a light twinkling in Matthew's eyes.
He looked at Yesseca. "So, do you intend to get together with Kylin?"
