"I'll go to school, but don't send Lenora there, okay?"

Matthew looked at her small face and answered, “Erica, what kind of person do you really think I am?" ‘What do I have to do to make her feel like I am the only man she will ever need?" he wondered gloomily.

Erica said readily, "You're handsome-" '-and hot.’

“I want to hear the truth.”

‘The truth?’ Erica looked at him with puzzlement. She couldn't have been lying to him about his good-looks, after all, the man was, indeed, very handsome.

“You're a nice guy!"

Anyway, he was always nice to her. But that wasn't it, he was, in fact, a great guy who treated her very well.

He looked at her hand holding the window and said, “Move your hands away!"

"But you haven't answered me yet. Can you..."

“If you have more questions, you can come to me again after we become a real married couple!"

Erica was speechless. Why did his mood change all of a sudden? He wasn't acting Like this at the Campbell family residence just a while ago. Was it because she tried to show Lenora some compassion?

Confused as she was, she moved her hands away when she saw the cold expression on his face.

Matthew stepped on the gas with immediacy and drove away quickly.

While Erica stood there alone in the yard, staring at the back of

Matthew's car as it drove off out of her vision.

With a look of disappointment on her face, Erica went back to the villa to get something from the third floor before heading back to school.

She quickly dashed to the bedroom and grabbed what she needed. When she was about to leave, she noticed a big difference in her dressing table.

Somehow, there were a lot of new things, which she had no recollection of ever buying. She randomly picked up each item and looked at it with great curiosity. There were various shades of lipstick, blusher, highlighter, bronzer and a lot of other makeup cosmetics.

Erica stood there guessing, baffled and confused. Who bought all these?

She took out her phone to send Matthew a message, but when she remembered that he was angry, Erica decided to ask him about the new cosmetics later on.

Thanks to Matthew's help, the matter concerning Tessie was handled very quickly and efficiently.

That afternoon, the truth concerning Erica's childbirth out of wedlock was spread all over the Internet. Tam and Tessie publicly apologized to

Erica in front of the camera. In the end, the news article was also accompanied by a paternity test of Ethan. The result showed that Tam and Tessie were, indeed, the biological parents of the baby.

More and more people found out that Erica was actually taking care of her best friend's child, but her best friend betrayed her instead. The netizens were shocked, and many people changed their opinions on Erica because of this.
