Selina could only say, "Okay then. Don't tire yourself out too much."
Just as she finished her sentence, she suddenly heard a cry.
It was Angelica crying.
Selina immediately became anxious, "Angelica is crying. I have to comfort her now. I'll hang up then."
"Hold on, Selina." Matthew said, "You just gave birth. Let the nanny comfort the baby. You shouldn't be overworking yourself. All you have to do is rest."
"I can't keep on lying in bed. Furthermore, I'm the baby's mother. I should be comforting her."
After that, Selina hurriedly hung up the phone.
Hearing the beeping sound from the other end, Matthew felt touched.
The prideful girl who had danced in a red gown many years ago had become his wife.
She was his wife and a mother, and she was doing her best to take care of their baby.
And he had also become a father.
He had more responsibilities to take care of.
He wanted to pamper and give his wife the best life he could so that she would be happy forever.
He also needed to pave the road for his child so that they could live a carefree life.
After a long thought, Matthew finally came to his senses.
He was supposed to have a negotiation with Tremaine, and he shouldn't be overthinking about his personal affairs.
Tremaine indeed returned to the Quartley Palace from the President's Office as Matthew had expected.
He had planned to work at the President Office all night again, but he couldn't stand it anymore. As the sky went dark, he already had a bad headache, and he would see double when looking at the papers.
Tremaine knew that he had to get some rest.
He left the President's Office and got the driver to drive him back to the Quartley Palace.
In the car, having no work to keep him busy, Tremaine thought of a person that he shouldn't be thinking about again.
Yesseca.
When he'd thought of Yesseca back then, he would have no other feelings apart from missing her badly.
Yet as he thought of her now, he would feel a great surge of rage and grief.
The more he thought of her, the angrier he became.
The more he thought, the more depressed he became.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, there was a loud noise.
Tremaine's fist had hit the car window directly.
The driver was immediately scared out of his wits.
Creak!
He quickly stepped onto the brakes to look at Tremaine and asked in fear, "Mr. Tremaine, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Tremaine drew back his fist, and his expression seemed gloomy. "Continue driving."
The car finally arrived at the Quartley Palace.
When Tremaine pushed the car door open, he suddenly regretted it.
He shouldn't have came back.
When he returned to the Quartley Palace, he recalled the memories he had made with Yesseca here once again.
But since he was already back, he could not possibly leave again.
Tremaine could only continue walking towards Quartley Palace, but he didn't expect to see Matthew at the gate.
Tremaine stopped in his tracks.
He knew that Matthew had come earlier to meet with him.
But he did not want to meet Matthew.
Although he and Matthew were on good terms, he was close to Yesseca.
Though he couldn't get others involved in his matter with Yesseca, it was inevitable for him to hate the people close to her.
