The lady at the counter had been selling luxury goods for so many years, but she had never experienced a moment like that before. The two women confronted each other, but they neither fought nor scolded each other. They did not pull each other hair or curse at each other meanly. They did not even speak after they bickered, but were just staring at each other.
It was obvious that the celebrity who was involved in a scandal with Matthew had a much weaker aura.
At that moment, a tall figure suddenly walked towards them.
The lady at the counter took a closer look. Wasn't that Matthew?
She had only seen Matthew on TV and in magazines. That was the first time that she had seen him in person.
Matthew was far better-looking in person than on TV and in magazines.
The heart of the lady at the counter skipped a beat.
However, it was obvious that it was not the right time to be drooling over his looks.
She immediately walked over to Selina's side and reminded her carefully, "Miss, you might also know that she is the one who's involved in a scandal with Matthew. Now that Matthew is here, I think you should take a step back."
The lady at the counter thought that since Matthew had arrived, this woman would have to compromise no matter how strong her background was.
Selina was stunned for a moment.
Did Matthew come in person?
A sense of mocking suddenly rose in her heart.
Matthew had indeed fancied this celebrity so much to the point that he'd even hurriedly rushed over for her.
Turned to the front of the store, she confirmed that the figure was truly Matthew.
Selina stood there and didn't move at all.
Matthew strode to the front of Selina.
The lady at the counter was afraid that she would be implicated, so she hurriedly stepped aside.
Matthew's gaze met with Selina's.
Jenna, on the other side, was stunned.
She had never expected that Matthew would come here!
"What's wrong?" Matthew's gaze was icy cold and deep, staring at Selina while he asked in a low voice.
"Hmph!" Selina's tone sounded rebellious, "What's wrong? Why are you asking me when you already know the answer?"
This man must have heard that the celebrity whom he was supporting was being nitpicked, so he personally came to help her. Why did he have to ask such a nonsensical question?
Matthew slightly furrowed his brows.
He glanced over and saw Jenna.
When Jenna saw that Matthew was looking at her, her heart beat faster.
She stammered, "Mr., Mr. Perry."
Matthew frowned.
He didn't expect that it was this woman who had a conflict with Selina.
"Selina, what on earth is going on?" Matthew asked again.
"What on earth is going on?" Selina sneered, "I'm indeed bullying the celebrity whom you're supporting. Is this answer good enough?"
"Supporting her."
Jenna, who was standing far away, was dumbfounded.
She learned two pieces of information from what Selina had just said a moment ago.
The first was that this woman was acquainted with Matthew.
The second was that she had misunderstood the relationship between her and Matthew.
A moment ago, when Selina made those claims, she didn't explain to her as she was too angry at that time. Now that Matthew was here, she couldn't help but explain, "There is nothing happening between Mr. Perry and me. It's just a rumor, it's not true."
"It's not true?" Selina looked at Matthew with sarcasm in her eyes. "If it's not true, then why did he come immediately just because you were bullied?"
Jenna's breath seemed to have stopped, and then she felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
Was the reason Matthew hurriedly came over because of her?
How, how could that be possible?
