My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 1057

She couldn't help saying, "That's right, Mom. To you, Matthew is the best, and I'm the worst. That's how it is, huh?"

Cecilia sighed. "Look at this brat going at it again."

Selina looked angry all over.

She had taken back the words that she was about to say to Natalie.

She no longer wanted to tell Natalie, nor did she want to tell anyone in the Whitlock family.

Because once she said it, she would definitely become a laughing stock.

She had been dead set on getting rid of Matthew, but she now regretted it. When the time came, what would the people in the Whitlock family say to her?

Especially since Cecilia loved to tease her so much recently, when the time came, Cecilia's mocking would never end.

Selina would not be able to bear it.

She decided to never say it, not even on her deathbed!

Matthew returned home.

Erine was watering the flowers in the living room. When she saw that Matthew had come back, she welcomed him.

"Welcome back, Mr. Perry," said Erine.

Matthew nodded.

He glanced at the delicate flowers in the living room. "Erine, these flowers have been taken good care of. You're so meticulous."

"It's my responsibility, Mr. Perry." Erine rubbed at the apron she was wearing.

After hesitating for a moment, she could not help but ask, "Sir, will Miss Whitlock come back or not?

Why did you get a divorce with her?"

As she spoke, she looked at his expression carefully.

Back when Matthew told her that he had already gotten a divorce with Selina, Erine was simply too shocked.

She had even been anticipating for Selina to give birth to a baby, who she would then help raise. Unexpectedly, the two of them separated so inexplicably.

Erine had always wanted to have a good talk with Matthew, but never got the chance. That was why she immediately asked him the moment he got back this time.

When Erine said that, Matthew's dark eyes, which were as black as ink, flashed faintly.

After a while, he calmed down and said, "Erine, we've already divorced. You don't need to ask about these things."

Erine gulped.

She was very clear that since Matthew said so, as a servant, she was not meant to probe any further, but she could not help it. She really could not hold it back.

Matthew had finally brought home a beautiful girl after being single for so many years. How could Erine stand to see them separating just like that?

Erine gathered up her courage and said, "Mr. Perry, I know that as a servant, I have no right to ask you about the emotional side of things..."

"Erine, I've never treated you as a servant," Matthew suddenly interrupted her. He said in a deep voice, "I treat you like family."

Hearing this, a smile flashed across Erine's eyes.

She was aware of that. She had always known that Matthew had never seen her as a servant.

That was why she stuck her nose into his business helplessly.

If they had a standard business relationship, there was no way she would dare to do so.

Erine went on to say, "Since you say you don't see me as a servant, then I have to tell you that from my point of view, I really don't think you two should have gotten a divorce. Miss Whitlock is quite a decent girl."

"I know she's decent. She really is wonderful," Matthew said, with a helpless smile on his lips. "But when it comes to feelings, you can't be together just because you're both good people."

"Then what else could it be?" Erine blurted out.

Matthew's smile became even more helpless and even a little bit bitter. "She doesn't like me."

This was the only reason why he had divorced Selina.

Because she did not like him.

When he got married to Selina, he knew that she did not like him, but he thought that he could take his time to try and change her feelings.

There were no shortage of cases where people only fell in love after getting married, after all.

In these endless years, Selina would be moved by his sincerity sooner or later.
