Chapter 413
While Lucy secretly enjoyed seeing him jealous because it showed that he cared about her, she could not let this misunderstanding persist.
If she did not address it right now, the resentment would accumulate and eventually harm their relationship. It was not worth it at all.
Matthew's expression softened a little, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Truman had someone he liked.
"Matt, from now on, please don't be so quick to judge people and act impulsively. I think Truman is quite nice, and he knows to maintain a respectful distance from me too."
Matthew realized that he should not have jumped the gun, so he apologized, "I'm sorry, wifey. I didn't mean to. I was just worried about you."
"It's okay, Matt. If there are any issues between us, we must address them openly instead of bottling them up. I'm glad that you talked to me about it. Isn't it nice that we get to discuss it together?"
Matthew might have been a little impulsive, but Lucy was pleased with how he handled it.
By talking about what upset them, they could work on it together. It would help their relationship thrive in the long run.
Matthew felt better now, so he immediately took Lucy to the dessert bar to sample some treats.
"Let's fill our stomachs before your mother and brother appear! You've been standing in heels for so long that can tell you're getting a bit tired." Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

In reality, Lucy was not tired at all. She might not be used to wearing heels, But she was full of energy today. She was not in the mood to eat at the moment.
“Matt, I'm not hungry. I had some biscuits before we came here to tide me over, but you haven't eaten anything, have you? You've been so busy that you've forgotten toeat."
Matthew was a workaholic. If he had not finished his work by mealtime, he would simply not eat until he was done.
This bad habit of his was not good for his health.
To appease her, Matthew said, “Alright. If you want me to go, you'll have to come with me."
