She was uncertain about Matthew’s attitude towards Kaia. The thought that her recent question might have exacerbated the situation filled her with unease.
Meeting Matthew’s gaze with determination, Stella gathered her courage and asked once more, “Would you like to bring the cake inside? Or perhaps in a little while?”
“It’s up to you,” Matthew answered.
“Did you have something to give me just now?”
There was a subtle hint of anticipation concealed in his voice.
Stella blinked twice, but then she pulled out a gift box from her bag.
“I hope you’ll find it to your liking.”
Matthew raised his eyebrows.
The gift box was elegantly wrapped, and Matthew unwrapped it, revealing a pen nestled inside.

Matthew smiled, closed the box once more, and lifted his gaze to meet Stella’s.
“Thank you. I like it very much.” His low voice resonated with delight as he spoke.
“Let’s head inside.”
Stella nodded.

Meanwhile, Kaia was completely ignored.
She observed their interaction in silence, and a pang of jealousy welled up within her. She was genuinely stunned by how Matthew acted towards the woman before her.
In her memory, Matthew was always aloof and indifferent to everyone.
Who the hell was this woman?
Kaia’s thoughts were in disarray, but she realized that pressing for answers might lead to more complications.
She echoed Matthew’s sentiment, saying, “Neville and I have made all the preparations. Let’s head inside.”
Matthew cast a chilly glance in her direction but continued to disregard her presence.
Stella offered silent praise to Matthew.
Indeed, Matthew appeared to be a man of virtue. Even without his wife, he remained unwavering in his devotion and didn’t pay attention to other women.
In the presence of such an attractive woman, he remained composed and unruffled. This loyalty makes him a cut above the rest.
Stella and Matthew walked into the room together. Kaia soon walked in after them.
