Alice returned to her house angrily and just as she entered the house she met Chiara who was leaving. Chiara was Matteo's secretary. Alice was very kind to her even though she was in a bad mood.
"Chiara, is there still work this late at night?"
Chiara smiled slightly at her and explained, "Yes, I'm here to find Mr. Giordano to solve something. It's getting late. I'm leaving now."
Alice said softly, "I'll let the driver take you home. It's not safe at this hour."
"No thanks. It takes me ten minutes to get back alone. Miss Giordano, I'll be leaving."
After saying goodbye to Alice, Chiara left the Giordano house directly.
Even the gentle smile on Alice's face disappeared, the mischief at the bottom of her eyes grew a little thicker. She went upstairs to Matteo's room and knocked on the door.
"Matteo, are you asleep?"
After a while, she heard Matteo's voice, "Not yet."
"Then, may I come in?"
"Come in."
Alice smiled, then opened the door and went inside.
"Matteo, tonight I went to the Ferrari group headquarters to attend the anniversary event. This is the dress I bought yesterday. Do they fit me?"
Before asking Matteo, Alice took courage.
She felt that she still had to have a good relationship with Matteo after all...she still depended on him.
Matteo sat down by the table with his papers and cell phone in front of him. His gaze did not move a bit and he did not even answer her. The smile on Alice's face had vanished in an instant and then she slowly approached him.
"It's very late. Why are you still working?"
Matteo's lips moved, "Ah yes."
Obviously he had not cared about her appearance. Embarrassed, Alice stood motionless, biting her lower lip.
Brother...He seemed to be indifferent to her. After so many years, there was still no change.
Alice looked at her toes and her heart gradually sank.
Matteo suddenly realized that the room seemed too quiet after she entered. He looked at Alice and saw her staring at her feet. Suddenly he thought he had been too cold to her.
Thinking about it, Matteo glanced at her skirt and then said in a deep voice, "Not bad."
Hearing this, Alice abruptly raised her head and turned a surprised look to Matteo, "Matteo?"
"The skirt. "Matteo said it, lowering his head again.
Alice stayed there for a while before she suddenly reacted and replied with great joy in her eyes, "Do you really think it's not bad? Thank you."
After speaking, she walked over and sat down on a chair next to him and discovered that there was a small box neatly packed. Alice asked softly, "This box is so beautiful. What's inside?"
She just wanted to reach out to touch it, but was scolded by Matteo.
"Don't touch it!"
His voice was cold, as if coming from the depths of a lake, and she was shocked by Matteo.
"Get out. "Matteo scolded.
Alice lifted her head to meet his cold eyes. The expression on Matteo's face was serious and almost fierce.
Inexplicably, Alice felt pained and withdrew her hand. Then she stood up and whispered, "I, I know."
Then she turned and ran out of the room.
The expression on Matteo's face remained the same. He raised his hand and dropped his fingertips on that beautiful and delicate little box.
This was the dress he had asked Chiara to send to Serena, but Chiara said she could not get in touch with Serena. Moreover, she already had her own dress, so Chiara sent the box back. However, this dress was not an ordinary one and Matteo paid special attention to it.
