Lothar never failed to cheer Selina up. Their little meet up had instantly put Selina in a good mood.

Matthew sent Saoirse and Liselle back to their villa.

Before leaving, Saoirse stared at Matthew with her deep eyes, "Come in and have a seat. I'm very lonely in this huge villa. Please accompany me."

Liselle also chimed in, "Yes, Mr. Perry. Come in and have a seat with Miss Saoirse."

"Sorry, Saoirse. I'll take my leave first," Matthew's voice was deep and hoarse.

Saoirse's face was very disappointed.

She forced a smile and said, "Okay William, I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you no matter what."

After Matthew left, Liselle immediately asked Saoirse, "Miss Saoirse, why didn't you tell Mr. William about what Mr. Perry told us?"

She shook her head and warned, "There's no need."

Liselle was anxious, "We want to know what's going on. He should give us an explanation."

"Liselle, William is a good man."

Liselle objected, "How could a good man let you down? How can he still have a mistress?"

"

A hint of sadness flashed across Saoirse's eyes, "Although he has mistresses, but it doesn't make him less of a good man. He told me that he had amnesia. He had forgotten that he has me and thus found another lover."

"But didn't he remember it now? Then, he should break up with that woman and be with you, Miss Saoirse."

"How can things be so simple?" Saoirse murmured.

She gave Liselle a warning look again, "If I don't say anything, you should not say anything to William either."

Liselle gulped and looked indignant.

Matthew's car sped across the highway.

Not long after, he stopped on the side of an empty road.

Matthew took out his phone.

He should have called Selina earlier, but he had been with Saoirse all day. He was filled with guilt hence did not call her. He tried to make a call then, but the phone was turned off.

Matthew frowned.

He knew that Selina must be angry.

He used to dote on Selina, but now, he was acting cold towards her. It was no surprise that she was mad at him.

Matthew immediately called his assistant.

The assistant's heart jumped when he heard Matthew's instruction.

It seemed that he had said something wrong before.

The assistant told Matthew everything, "Mr. Perry, Miss Whitlock came to the office at noon to look for you. I, I told her that you would not be at the office for a few days. Did I say something wrong?" Matthew rubbed his temple. He was tired.

He could not blame his assistant for this. After all, the assistant was only telling the truth.

"It's okay. Can you check where she is now?" Matthew ordered.

Twenty minutes later, the assistant called back.

"Mr. Perry, we've found Miss Whitlock's phone in your office, but she's already gone. Unfortunately, she's not carrying her phone with her now, so it's impossible to locate her."

Matthew pursed his thin lips tightly.

"I see," Then, he hung up the phone.

He dialed Natalie's number and learned that Selina had not gone to the Whitlock family home.

A bad feeling overwhelmed his heart.

Matthew immediately drove back to the Perry family villa.

Upon reaching the Perry family home, Matthew could not replace Selina's presence anywhere.

Matthew ran into Prine when he hurried downstairs.

"Mr. Perry, you're back?" Prine asked in surprise.

"Yes," Matthew was about to leave when he suddenly stopped in his tracks, "Prine, when did Selina leave?"

Prine was even more surprised, "Didn't Miss Whitlock meet you? She mentioned that she would bring you lunch at noon. Did you guys not meet?"

Matthew's heart froze.

It turned out that at noon, Selina had went to deliver lunch to him.

The guilt in Matthew's heart grew and almost drowned him.

Selina and Lothar walked out of the tea shop.

They strolled around the main road.

"Where are you planning to go later?" Lothar asked.

"I just want to make my ex-husband anxious and let him know the consequences of hiding things from me," Selina answered.

Lothar did not know what to say.

"Your ex-husband actually dotes on you," Lothar said a few moments later.

Selina looked at Lothar in surprise, "What did you say?"

"It's just a feeling. That day, when I saw your ex-husband, the way he looked at you was very affectionate and loving," Lothar felt a little jealous again. Selina was slightly touched.

Upon hearing Lothar's words, her heart suddenly softened.

Since Matthew was acting so strangely, there must be something bothering him. Even so, at this

critical moment, not only did she not

comfort Matthew, but she also

threw a tantrum because she

suspected that he was keeping Something from her. Was she not going too far?

Selina twitched her lips. She was about to speak when a phone suddenly rung.

She subconsciously thought it was her phone, but when she touched her pockets, she found nothing.

Then, she remembered that she put her phone in Matthew's office.

Selina immediately wanted to go and retrieve it.

"Lothar, when are you going to pay me back my money? I need the money now!" A loud, piercing voice pierced the peaceful air around them.

Selina looked at Lothar in astonishment.

Lothar's face was filled with awkwardness.

His phone had rung. However, the phone he had been using was old and malfunctioned so it was suddenly on loudspeaker, and Selina was able to hear every word the person on the other line was saying.

"The moment I have the money, I will definitely return it to you," Lothar stammered.

The man's voice became louder, "I know Yesseca needs money to treat her illness, but I too need money. No matter what, you must pay me back by tomorrow."

Lothar's voice was filled with helplessness as he begged, "Aunt, you, me and Yesseca are family. Please give me some more time."

"Enough of the nonsense. If you don't pay me back tomorrow, I'll go straight to the hospital to

replace Yesseca

The person on the other end of the line hung up the phone.

Lothar's face instantly turned pale.

Selina looked at Lothar, "What's wrong with Yesseca?"

Lothar's face was filled with despair, "She's ill. I borrowed money from my relatives to treat her illness."

Selina's heart skipped a beat.

She suddenly remembered the things Lothar had told her a long time ago, but later, he had said that it was all a joke.

Could it betrue?

Selina did not dare to ask.

Lothar looked so helpless that Selina did not dare to probe further.

"How much did you borrow?" Selina blurted.

"Around ten thousand dollars," Lothar mutterred.

Lothar's mind was still in a mess when he answered Selina's question. He wasn't paying much attention as he was still shocked from the phone call made by his aunt.

Upon hearing this, Selina was frustrated!

So much drama over such a small amount of

money!

That woman was willing to go to the hospital to make a scene just for that little amount of money? How embarrassing!

Selina said immediately, "I'll help you pay it back!"

Upon hearing Selina's words, Lothar instantly snapped back to reality.

He immediately shook his head, "No. How can I ask you to pay it back for me?"

Selina glared at Lothar and raised

her voice abruptly, "Then what do you want to do? Have that embarrassing woman come to the hospital and trample all over you and Yesseca?"
