Selina didn't know what to say to Bowie.
Bowie hung up the phone.
All of a sudden, Selina burst into laughter.
She recalled all the women that flung themselves at Matthew. Saoirse and Rainee were able to trigger some form of fury in Selina, but not Bowie.
Even when Bowie took the initiative to call Selina, Selina was not in the least bit bothered and only felt like laughing.
Before Bowie's call, she was in a bad mood but now she had cheered up.
After a while, Matthew walked over.
Seeing the silly smile on Selina's face, the haze brought by the phone call Matthew received subsided instantly.
It was his men who called just now.
He found that Reid had escaped from Hollywood to Las Vegas and his men couldn't find him anywhere in Vegas.
Reid's craftiness was beyond Matthew's imagination.
"What are you laughing at?" Matthew asked as he
walked over.
Matthew felt that all his problems were pushed aside the instant he saw Selina's smile.
Selina lifted her head and gazed at Matthew, "Do you remember Bowie Zimmer?"
Matthew looked confused. He didn't know who Bowie was.
"It's Natalie's sister. Isn't she a relative or something?"
It was only after hearing Selina's words that Matthew recalled who Bowie was.
"Oh, I know. I've seen her several times, but I don't have a deep impression of her," Matthew said.
"Then tell me your only impression of her?" Selina asked.
Matthew had no lasting impression of Bowie.
"Just an ordinary girl," Matthew said.
Selina covered her mouth and giggled.
Matthew said gently, "What's wrong? Why are you laughing?"
She pursed her lips sweetly, "Nothing much, just..."
She looked at Matthew, "Why must you be so goodlooking?"
Matthew was at a loss for words.
Selina pinched the bridge of Matthew's nose gently, "You are so good looking that you have attracted so many girls,"
Matthew grasped Selina's slender fingers, "No matter how many women turn their heads, you're the only woman of my dreams,"
Matthew's gaze was so focused and intense that only Selina was in his sight when he said that. It was as if the whole world was gone and didn't matter. In his eyes and in his heart, there was only Selina.
Selina felt a gush of tenderness seeing Matthew's gaze.
She couldn't help but throw herself into Matthew's arms, "Matthew, I feel so happy that you love me so much,"
There was an intense joy in Matthew's eyes. His low voice could be heard above Selina's head, "I'm also grateful that you finally belong to me,"
Bowie's phone call made Selina completely forget about what she wanted to tell Matthew.
When she woke up the next day, Matthew had already gone to work.
Maybe it was because of her pregnancy, Selina had been waking up slightly later recently. She would wake up around 10 in the morning almost everyday.
Selina felt a little dizzy when she woke up.
Although she was feeling a bit blur, Selina somehow remembered the dream she had last night.
However, the dream was all muddled up.
Lothar and Caroline were both in her dreams.
When she woke up, she could not remember the details of the dream, but her head still felt painful.
Erine cooked Selina a bowl of sweet lotus seed porridge.
She told Selina that it would help ease her headache.
"Miss Whitlock, although the lotus seeds are bitter, they're highly nutritious. They're good for your brain." Erine coaxed her.
Selina finished the porridge.
