Matthew dragged his tired body and had just returned to the villa when Tom came to him with his maid, with a somewhat unnatural expression on his face, which made Matthew a bit puzzled.
"Tom, what's wrong? Did something happen?"
Ton nodded, with a somewhat laconic expression on his face, he wasn't sure if he would be as calm as he was when he told him about it.
He looked at Tom, the man who had watched him grow up, and in Matthew's heart, he still respected him. He put down the paper bag in his hand and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
"Tom, say it, what is it, I am no longer the little boy I used to be, now I have the ability to bear whatever happens."
Tom nodded and glanced at the maid beside him.
"You tell Matthew what you saw,"
The servant nodded understandingly.
"This afternoon, Miss Li ran out in a great hurry, Tom was afraid she might be in danger, so he sent me to follow her, but I saw, instead, Miss Li meeting with Lisa."
The servant told Matthew what he saw, because the distance was too far, so he couldn't hear what they were saying.
"Are you sure that Lauren and Lisa met?" The servant's words made Matthew stand up from the sofa at once.
The man nodded with certainty.
"That's what I saw with my own eyes, and I vaguely heard, what Miss Lee said about the heirloom, except that Lisa seemed to scold Miss Lee and finally left with that young man."
Matthew took a few deep breaths in order to calm himself to receive this information, his narrow black eyes, can not see any emotion.
"Tom, has she come back now?"
Tom shook his head.
"No, hasn't been back until now."
Matthew nodded.
"When she comes back tell her to meet me in the study, I have something to ask her." After saying that, Matthew picked up the file bag beside him and headed upstairs to the study.
I don't know if it was his illusion, Tom felt his back, as if he had a lonely look.
Lauren, who didn't know how to face Matthew, still returned to the villa when it was dark.
"Tom, is something wrong?"
Seeing Tom standing at the door, as if waiting for her, Lauren had a bad feeling.
"Matthew asked you to meet him in the study when you return, he seems to have something to ask you,"
Lauren nodded, unsure of what exactly Matthew knew, but she knew that what was coming would come, and she could not choose to avoid it.
She dragged her heavy steps, then made her way to Matthew's study.
"Matthew, are you in there? Why don't you turn on the light?"
Lauren walked into the study, and the darkness inside gave Lauren an inexplicable feeling of unease.
"Lauren, can you bring out the pictures of the two of us from before? I want to go to the rooftop with you to see how sweet we used to be."
A mature and somewhat low voice came from the corner of the study.
Hearing Matthew's voice, Lauren felt at ease and without any doubt walked towards the second drawer of the desk and directly opened it to take out the large stack of photos inside.
'Snap' Matthew turned on the study's headlight.
