He had gotten Joycelyn to be his girlfriend, and now he didn't even want to speak a single word to Selina.
Even if they were just friends who had nothing to do with each other, they should at least greet each other when they meet!
However, he hadn't said anything. He just called her name and left straight away!
He just walked away like that!
Gradually, sadness turned into anger, which couldn't be suppressed.
Selina stood up.
Dylan looked at Selina in surprise.
Selina said irritably, "Let's go. I don't want to eat here anymore. The food here isn't appetizing. There are too many people here, especially people I hate. Let's go somewhere else to eat!"
Dylan's eyes flashed with emotion.
The waiters had already served the dishes here.
Seeing that Selina was about to leave, the waiter quickly said, "Miss, the food..."
Dylan handed the waiter a few hundred-dollar bills and said, "Bill, please."
After saying that, he caught up with Selina.
Selina took in large breaths outside.
God knew why she had decided to go to a restaurant like that. Disgusting people were everywhere and even the air was oppressive.
"Selina, what's wrong with you?" Dylan asked, his eyes reflecting his confusion.
"It's nothing," Selina replied stiffly.
It was just that the people in the restaurant were too annoying, and the air in there was too oppressive. There was nothing else. It was really nothing.
"Selina, you've already divorced Matthew," Dylan suddenly blurted.
Selina froze.
After a moment, she turned to look at Dylan and said, "Yeah, I know that I've already divorced him. I'm well aware. You don't have to remind me!"
"Is that woman his new girlfriend?" Dylan stared into Selina's eyes and asked.
He suspected that Selina's reaction at the moment was related to the woman who appeared beside Matthew.
Selina felt even more agitated.
"How would I know?" she huffed and spat out these words.
Dylan was silent for a moment.
He saw that Selina was so angry that her whole face had turned red.
A moment later, Dylan opened his mouth. Feeling like he had to exert all his energy for each word, he said, "Selina, why are you so angry? Don't tell me you still like Matthew?"
Walking to the door of the private room, Joycelyn was about to open the door.
She smiled and said, "Matthew, my parents talk about you all the time. Finally, they can meet you today. They're really happy about it."
Matthew's smile was a little forced.
Just as Joycelyn's hand touched the doorknob, Matthew suddenly said, "Joycelyn, just a minute."
Before Joycelyn could come back to her senses, Matthew had already disappeared.
Matthew ran to the hall downstairs, but Dylan and Selena were not there anymore.
He ran out of the restaurant subconsciously and saw Dylan and Selina not far away.
Matthew ran over.
As the distance between them got closer, Selina's voice drifted into Matthew's ears.
"What a joke. Who would like an old man like Matthew? He's hypocritical from head to toe. Besides, he's nine years older than me. I like young men..." Selina said.
Matthew's steps stopped.
All his thoughts left him at that moment.
Without a second's hesitation, he turned around and left directly.
Dylan looked at Selina who was in front of him. He was staring at her.
The more agitated Selina was, the stranger he felt.
"Selina, do you really not like Matthew?" Dylan couldn't help but interrupt Selina's words.
The moment he asked this question, he felt like his heart was being cut by a knife.
"Of course not!" Selina replied, even more furiously.
