Chapter 137 Matthew controlled the door lock, which madenervous. The atmosphere in the car becambiguous.
“Open the door. | want to go back.” In the past 22 years, | had never been so embarrassed no matter who | faced—even Felix, whom | loved so much back then.
Matthew turned sideways, staring atseriously. His eyes seemed to glow. | dodged his gaze, urging him to open the door.
Soon, he stroked my head and said hoarsely, “Lalu, don’t makewait too long.” “Mhm, I'll get off.” Apart from Colin, | seemed to instinctively distance myself from every man.
After turning off the car, he got out and opened my door. He reached out togentlemanly.

After thinking for a second, | didn’t take his hand but got out myself.
Matthew looked disappointed, but he still cheered up and followed me.
“It’s only a few steps away. | can go back by myself. Go ahead and attend to your business.” During the meal, his phone’s notification tone kept ringing. But he didn’t answer the phone, nor did he turn on his phone to see who was looking for him. He just sat across from me, watchingeat the meal.
When | opened the apartment door, | saw my roommate, Helen Johnston, standing in front of the window. She was smiling meaningfully at me, which madeuncomfortable.
“Why are you looking atlike that? Is there anything EB my face?” My new roommate, Helen, was a typical sexy beauty. | heard she was from a rich family who spent a lot and dressed well. As | hadn’t had much contact with her, | hadn't figured out her temper yet, | put on comfortable soft-soled slippers, preparing to take a nap to rest. | still had things to do afterward.
After washing my face, | lay on the bed and covered myself with the blanket. Yawning, | closed my eyes, +15 BONUS “Why do you look so tired after eating?” | raised my heavy eyelids and glanced at Helen. She was standing beside my bed with her arms folded. She seemed unfriendly today.
Although we lived in the sapartment, we didn’t have many opportunities to see each other. Helen was always busy, talking about business matters on her phone-which I didn’t understand.
Her clothes, jewelry, bags, and other accessories looked exquisite and expensive, revealing that her family was well off. It was normal for a woman of this background to be arrogant.
It wouldn't be easy to get along with her.
Since we had little contact, | wondered where her unfriendliness or hostility towardcfrom.

“I'm not tired, just sleepy. | got up too early in the morning. You can do whatever you want. You won't disturb me.” She didn’t speak anymore, only taking a few steps back and sitting down. Until | fell asleep, | felt a cold gaze on me.
When | woke up, it was almost 4:15 pm. Matthew called me saying he would come soon pick me up for dinner. He had a surprise for me.
| didn't want to go—especially after | said | would consider his request. If | agreed to meet him in the evening I was worried he would ask for my reply. As | had slept all afternoon, | didn't have tto think about his confession yet.
Besides, it had been several days since college started. Colin had messaged several times to ask about my situation but | delayed it due to other matters. | only gave him a hasty response without talking in detail. | had planned to chat with Colin after dinner and report my recent situation so that he wouldn't worry about me.
But before | could reject Matthew, he said, “I'm already waiting for you downstairs.” He knew | wasn’t ready yet, so he didn’t rush for an answer. He just askedto be fair and give him a chance to pursue me.
