"Matthew, have you talked to Cillian? How is he doing? He must be so worried.”
Lucy looked at Matthew. Although Matthew knew that his wife did not have any romantic feelings for Cillian, she always brought him up. He could not help but feel jealous.
“Of course, I told him, so don’t worry.”
His original intention was to not tell Cillian, but who knew that he would see that man as soon as he touched down in Charleston?
Cillian was tugging at him, urgently asking him for help to look for Lucy. After just a few hours of not seeing her, Cillian’s eyes were already all bloodshot.
Matthew did not want Lucy to find out that he had kept it from Cillian once her phone was done charging, so he told him the truth.
At that moment, Cillian should be in the guest house cursing Matthew for acting in bad faith.
They had agreed to visit Lucy together, but Matthew knew that Cillian could not enter the palace alone. While Cillian was sleeping, Matthew went to see Lucy on his own.
“Why do you keep mentioning Cillian? It’s not like he’s the only one worried about you. There are plenty of others worried about you too, you know,” Matthew asked, feeling annoyed.
Lucy felt embarrassed as she listened to his complaints.
Despite the warm feeling creeping into her heart, Lucy decided to tease him a bit. She feigned ignorance and innocently asked, “Really? Who else is worried about me besides Cillian?”
Fluttering her big round eyes, Matthew stared at her helplessly. Through gritted teeth, he said, “You tell me, my dear wife.”
That cheeky little thing! When he heard that Lucy was missing, it was like the sky had fallen.
He even had the urge to destroy everything, yet this little troublemaker was teasing him on purpose.
