After dinner, Matthew and Lucy sent Vito off while sweating profusely.

Once he left, Lucy slumped onto the couch. “Mr. Vito is terrifying.”

Matthew nodded as the fear lingered in him. The two of them only. managed to calm down after a while.

Speaking of Vito, Lucy suddenly remembered something. She turned to look at Matthew. “Matthew, Mr. Vito watched you grow up, right?”

Matthew nodded. “Yes, Mr. Vito and I are like family.”

“Does Mr. Vito have any children of his own?”

Matthew shook his head.

“Mr. Vito’s son and daughter were killed in a car accident…”

“I’m sorry.” Lucy fell silent.

“It’s okay. Mr. Vito isn’t here anyway. Just make sure not to mention it in front of him,” Matthew warned her.

She nodded quickly and changed the topic. “Let’s not talk about Mr. Vito, then. Let’s talk about you.

“Matt, I’ve lived with you for so long, but I’ve never seen your parents.”

Matthew fell silent again. He did not speak for a while.

She blinked at him blankly. Uh oh. Did she say something she was not © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

supposed to? The air between them was even worse than before…

Matthew patted Lucy’s head. “Since you’ve married into the family, you have the right to know, so I might as well tell you. I don’t have a good relationship with my mother.”

Hearing this, she was stunned. “I guess I’m not the only one.”

She clumsily rubbed her head, trying to steer the conversation away. However, it was obvious that her attempt failed.

Matthew was considerate of his wife, so he smiled at her. “You and the Quinn family aren’t related by blood. It’s normal for you to not have a good relationship with them, so don’t think too much about it.”

A surge of warmth washed over Lucy’s heart.

Lucy was puzzled, but since they had dropped the topic, she did not want to make Matthew sadder by bringing it up again.

If God were there with them, he would want to tell Lucy, ‘Who told you that you got away with it? Are you that confident in your ability to change the subject? When I created you, I didn’t give you that ability!‘

Matthew continued with the conversation, oblivious to Lucy’s attempts to change the subject. Feeling utterly defeated, Lucy covered her face in despair. It was over. She had deliberately brought up something others did not want to talk about. What was wrong with

her?

“My mother and I haven’t had a good relationship since I was a child…”

Matthew delved into his memories, “Although she gave birth to me, she had to manage multiple businesses, so she was so busy that she never had any time

Later, my father…

“Forget it, we don’t have to talk about him. Long story short, my

mother and I aren’t on good terms.”

Lucy looked confused. Why did he leave things half–said? What happened to his father? Was his mother estranged from his father. because of how busy she was?

Judging from Matthew’s reaction, there seemed to be more to it than that. The more she listened to him, the more confused she was.

However, after seeing his expression, she did not want to bring it up again.

Lucy decided to keep those questions to herself.
