At some point, the word 'kindness' became a derogatory term.
Lucy always believed that kindness was an essential part of human nature, but she also understood the importance of boundaries.
Matthew was probably referring to Lucy’s past experiences, particularly her reluctance to sever ties with her ex-boyfriend and her former family, which left her to suffer.
However, Matthew did not realize that Lucy would no longer let others hurt her like that again.
“Don’t worry, Matt. I won't let those things happen again. I’ll take good care of myself.”
Matthew nodded with relief. “Don’t underestimate me too, wifey. I’ve promised to protect you for the rest of my life, and I won't let you go.”
Lucy smiled and held his hand.
Matthew purposely left the driver at home so he could personally chauffeur Lucy for the day. He even chose the least conspicuous car from the garage, yet it still exuded elegance.
Lucy did not understand why he did not want to let the driver drive, so Matthew explained, “I want everyone to know that I can take care of my wife myself.”
Was he throwing a childish tantrum again?
Lucy felt like he was going a little overboard. “You don’t have to do this, Matt. I know you love me…”
Matthew’s expression softened. “I know you trust me, but there are still some people who…”
He suddenly stopped talking and got into the car. Puzzled by his words, Lucy simply got into the car without pressing further.
On the way to the Wine Festival, the main roads were adorned with advertisements for the event. Some famous artists were even invited to perform.
Lucy marveled at the sight. “I’ve heard about the Wine Festival before, but I didn’t expect it to be so grand.”
