Lucy had always thought that nothing could destroy the bond between her and Matthew, but she was nearly breaking down over this small matter.
“I don’t know what to say…”
Lucy did not know how to put into words the exhaustion she felt.
Matthew gently touched her cheek in the darkness and sensed the moisture on her face—it was her tears.
Heartbroken, Matthew quickly wiped the tears away from her eyes.
“What’s wrong, wifey? Is it because of my mom and Samantha? Did they upset you?”
Matthew immediately guessed that it was about that.
They were fine before his mother appeared, but Lucy’s mood had been down since that incident. She did not speak much on the way back. Even when he tried to get her to talk, Lucy only brushed it off.
Lucy had broken her promise to share everything with each other.
Lucy softly said in his embrace, “I don’t know what’s wrong… I always thought that nothing could come between us, but what your mother said today made me realize something.”
There had always been an invisible barrier between Lucy and Matthew, one that Lucy had believed she could overcome. Now, every step forward felt as impossible as reaching for the stars. Matthew was right in front of her, yet she felt like he was out of reach.
Although Gabriella did not speak vulgarly, her words dealt a significant blow to Lucy.
