Natalie said, "He's asleep."
"Why is he sleeping so early?" Selina asked.
It was still very early.
Natalie smiled and said, "He's so naughty now. He was playing like crazy during the day, so he got really tired at night. After dinner, he cried and just wanted to sleep."
Selina nodded in agreement.
Hayden was at the age where kids were known to be the most mischievous.
Her gaze fell upon Natalie's belly. "Natalie, are you going to give birth soon?"
Natalie nodded, and her tone was filled with happiness, "There's almost one more month to go."
"So fast." Selina couldn't help but exhale.
She felt that Natalie's belly had suddenly grown so much bigger.
When she first found out that Natalie was pregnant, her stomach was still flat. It grew slowly after that, and now it was only one month before the due date.
Selina was looking forward to it.
Selina was wondering if this baby would be a niece or nephew?
Seeing that she was talking about the child, Cecilia couldn't help but urge Selina, "Selina, don't always talk about Natalie. What about you? Is there nothing going on? "
Selina was quiet.
She was complaining to herself in her head.
Since the day she married Matthew, they had never been intimate. How could she be pregnant?
There was nothing going on now, and there would be nothing happening in the future.
Cecilia saw that Selina was quiet and she wanted to break the silence. Natalie, who was beside her, said softly, "Mom, Selina is still young. She's shy about this."
Cecilia sighed and said, "What do you mean by young? She's already married and in her midtwenties now. How is that considered young?"
Selina was quite dissatisfied with what Cecilia had to say.
She pointed at her own face and said, "Mom, you can't say that. I am still very young. Look at my face, brimming with elasticity!"
Cecilia couldn't find a word to say to her.
She changed the subject, "By the way, are you nice to Matthew?"
Selina kept quiet.
She widened her eyes and looked at Cecilia with disbelief.
Selina thought to herself, what the hell? What was she even talking about?
What did she mean by if she was nice to Matthew?
Was a mother supposed to ask a question like this?
No mother in the world, no matter poor or rich, would have asked that. They would have instead asked, "Is he nice to you?"
How could she have such a strange mother!
The corners of Selina's mouth twitched, "Mom, what are you talking about? What do you mean by 'Am I nice to him'? Shouldn't you ask, 'Is he nice to me'? Did you ask wrongly?"
Cecilia sighed.
She glanced at Selina and said, "I know very well how Matthew treats you. There's nothing to question about how well he treats you. It's just you. I'm worried that you're messing around in the Perry family."
Selina was quiet again.
She really felt that it was the right decision to hide the real intention behind her marriage with Matthew from everyone in the Whitlock family.
Everyone in the Whitlock family praised Matthew for what a great person he was, saying that he was flawless. All would have instantly assumed that it was her fault if something had gone wrong.
Her expression turned a little cold, "That's right. Matthew is the best. He's even closer to you than your own son. I'm the horrible one!"
"You see, here we go again."
Natalie interrupted the conversation between Selina and Cecilia, "Mom, Selina, it's so rare for us to meet, let's talk about happy things."
Her tone was deliberately relaxed and pleasant.
Cecilia and Selina both were silent.
A moment later, Selina took a deep breath, "Mom, I remember last time you said that you were going to the United States. Why did you come back then?"
"No, I'm not." Selina looked away.
Cecilia asked again seriously, "What's the matter?
Why haven't you prepared for the wedding yet?"
Selina remained quiet.
She tried to think about an excuse. "Because Matthew is too old!"
Cecilia turned to be speechless now.
Even Natalie didn't know what to say.
Both of them were taken aback, not a word escaped their mouths.
Selina decided to just spew some nonsense. "Mom, think about it. He is nine years older than me. A lot of people will be invited to the wedding, like classmates and friends. When these people see that I'm married to an old man, I will be so embarrassed."
After a while, Cecilia snapped back to the reality.
"Selina, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Selina smiled bitterly, "That's why I'm urging Matthew to take care of his body now so that he'll look younger. Then, we'll hold the wedding ceremony."
Cecilia was speechless once again.
If someone else had said something like this, she would definitely have felt that they were babbling nonsense.
However, it was Selina...
She knew her daughter well and the way she thought was always ridiculous, as if she had a brain structure that was different from everyone else.
It was indeed true that only Selina would say something so absurd.
Cecilia did not know what to say anymore.
Natalie could not help but interrupt with, "Selina, Matthew may be nine years older than you, but he really looks quite young, to the point that he seems about the same age as you."
Selina looked at her without saying anything.
She continued to stare at Natalie. "Natalie, are you saying that I am old or that Matthew is young?"
