She couldn't believe that her first time was gone just like that. Selina was in so much pain, it felt as if her heart had been pierced by thousands of needles. That man was a pervert!

Her eyes turned cold.

Before that time, there were many occasions where he could have had sex with her.

There was once when she was drunk and had stayed the night at Matthew's house.

If he had taken her virginity then, she would have hated him, but not so much.

It was because Matthew and Dylan had schemed against her and used the most humiliating method to take advantage of her!

How could he have done this to her?

Because he knew that she was seeing her nephew, so he wanted to take everything from her?

Was it that some people just had perverted hobbies?

Or did he do this for revenge, because she had played with his heart?

Selina took a deep breath.

No matter the reason was, Matthew did what he did.

She hated Matthew. She hated him to her core.

"I like her not only because she is kind, but also because she is beautiful and gentle," said a voice.

Selina was taken aback.

Matthew had arrived home and was walking towards them.

Matthew seemed to have overheard what Erine said earlier. He continued, "My wife has so many good qualities. She has as many as there are stars in the sky. I couldn't finish talking about them even if I talked about it day and night."

Matthew walked over to Selina, his eyes bright, a faint smile on his lips. "Honey, am I right?"

At that moment, his eyes were so bright it seemed to be brighter than the stars in the sky.

Selina turned her head away. "Matthew, don't be so disgusting. Erine is still here."

"Erine is not an outsider," chuckled Matthew.

Although what Matthew said was true, Erine knew better. She couldn't sit here and watch the young couple being lovey dovey.

Erine stood up and said, "Master Perry, Miss

Whitlock, you two go ahead and talk. I have something else to do, so I'll get back to work."

Erine took the bowl that Selina had eaten from and left.

"Have you had dinner?" Matthew asked softly.

"Yes."

"What did you eat?" he asked.

Selina rolled her eyes at Matthew and said, "Don't you think that you talk a lot of nonsense? Why do you have to know all the details? Do you have nothing to do? If you have nothing to do, you can fire all the servants. You can do all the housework by yourself!"

Matthew didn't retaliate although Selina was lashing out at him.

His tone was still as warm as the spring breeze. "I'll cut some fruit for you. It's good to eat some after dinner."

Selina felt like the punches that she had thrown couldn't hurt him.

Earlier, she was filled with anger as she thought about what had happened. It just so happened that Matthew came back at the wrong time.

She was deliberately trying to aggravate him. She would feel a little more satisfied if Matthew got angered by her words and argued with her.

However, she didn't expect Matthew to let it off so lightly.

She glared at Matthew. "Aren't you angry at what I said?"

Matthew raised his eyebrows slightly. "What did you say?"

"You!" Selina's eyes widened. "Don't play dumb!"

Matthew placed a hand on her shoulder. "I know you have a bad temper. I'll let it go."

As long as she didn't cross the line, he could put up with it.

"Are you really that good-tempered?"

Matthew's eyes darkened slightly. "I have a temper, but not at you."

He paused and let out a small sigh. "Selina, it's because I like you."

Matthew's words pierced her heart.

Her eyelashes felt like butterflies struggling in the water after the rain, trembling.

Her face suddenly turned pale.

She raised her head and looked at Matthew. There was a faint glimmer of light in her eyes. "You say you like me. Why would you have done such a thing if you liked me?"

She felt so defiled, but now he said that he liked her?

If a man really fell in love with a woman, would he do such a thing?

"No!"

The only possibility was that Matthew did not like her at all. Instead, he had mistaken his possessiveness as fondness toward her.

Her questions made Matthew stiffen slightly.

That night played faintly at the back of his mind.

It was not beautiful at all. Although everything happened that night was wonderful, there was no beauty when he recalled it.

There was only regret.

He desired Selina, but he hadn't wanted to take advantage of her in that moment.

It was an insult to her.

Seeing that Matthew's face had stiffened, Selina was getting angrier.

She stared straight at Matthew. "You really are despicable. You did such a horrible thing to me that night, & thought you were a gentleman all along!"

Matthew pursed his thin lips tightly, regret flashing across his face.

Even a gentleman would still make mistakes.

Actually, he had found out that he and Selina had been drugged that night. He should have been able to gain enough control to get out of the room.

Still, he had made a mistake.

It was just like being a sailor at

and hearing a siren's song. Even- knowing that they would die,

K't be able to help

still

they

themselves from jumping into the

sea.

"I'm sorry, Selina," Matthew finally said.

There was a huskiness in the man's low voice.

"You don't have to say sorry to me!" Selina glared at Matthew and raised her voice. "You don't have anything to be sorry for. You are a hypocrite!"

Hypocrites were even more hateful than villains!

Matthew felt a wave of pain pierce his heart as he felt Selina's anger.

It turned out that although he knew that Selina had no feelings for him, he had never seen such anger and hate in her eyes.

Matthew sounded like he was mumbling. "Selina, I'll repay you. I'll pay you back for the rest of my life."

Hearing that, the corner of her mouth suddenly curled upwards, and a mocking smile played on her lips. Repay, yes, he would repay her.

"Is repaying enough after what you did?" She thought savagely.

If a man killed another man's parents, and he said "I will repay you", could the child's hatred be gone just like that?

No, of course not!

She smiled mockingly.

Fine, didn't Matthew say that he would pay her back for the rest of his life? She would wait.

A lifetime is a long time, and Selina had a lot of time on her hands.

If Matthew was going to use his whole life to repay her, then she would use her whole life to torture him.

Matthew's heart tightened as he gazed at her.
