Chapter 203
Although Matthew explained it tactfully, Lucy was still stunned when she heard about it. She had mentally prepared herself, but she never would have imagined that to be the reason she broke up with Timothy. Timothy broke up with her after cheating on her with another woman!
If that was the case, she was not upset at all, nor did she feel even an ounce of heartbreak. It was as if she did not give a damn at all.
How was this real? Just a moment ago, she was on the phone with Timothy. Now, she felt nothing toward him.
Matthew carefully observed Lucy, but apart from the lifelessness in her eyes, Matthew did not notice anything unusual.
He was relieved to see that his wife did not seem bothered by this.
"By the way, if you fell in love with me at first sight, did you study abroad in New York too?"
Lucy stared at him suspiciously.
For some reason, she had a feeling that the man in front of her was lying.
Matthew felt insanely guilty on the inside, but he showed no emotion on his face.
How else did he make his company number one in the entire world? People like him had to have more than one trick up their sleeves.
"Of course!"
Meanwhile, Cillian sneered inwardly, 'Hah! Let us see how long you can bluff for.'
Lucy frowned. Her gut feeling told her something was off, but she could not quite pinpoint what it was, so she gave up.
It would not do her much harm anyway, so she did not continue questioning Matthew. Even so, that did not stop her from asking other things.
She turned to look at Cillian and asked, "You haven't told me why you suddenly lost so much weight? I know time has passed, but how on earth did you lose all of that fat?" Cillian was dumbfounded by her words. Her first reaction to seeing him was exactly the same as when they first saw each other after she returned to the country.
He said with a straight face. "I ate less, drank more water, reduced my snacking, and exercised more."
Lucy felt hopeless. It was just the same old advice people gave for losing weight.
After some time, the atmosphere among the three of them finally eased up.
Lucy touched the bandage on her forehead and placed her hand over the wound on her chest. It was her first time undergoing surgery, so she could not help feeling curious. Before she could do anything, Matthew grabbed her hand.
"Wait a minute, wifey. What are you doing? How can you touch the wound when you just had an operation? Aren't you worried about getting an infection?"
Matthew scolded her with a stern face, but apart from pouting in dissatisfaction, Lucy did not react in any other way.
Her behavior caught Cillian's attention, and he was somewhat surprised. Back in college, Lucy hated it most when others touched her. Except for her close friends, everyone else had to keep an appropriate distance from her.
However, even after losing her memory, she seemed to be able to accept Matthew's touch.
Cillian lowered his gaze after realizing this unpleasant discovery. Did her body still remember Matthew even after she had lost her memory?
He coughed to interrupt the tender moment between Matthew and Lucy. "Ahem, Matthew, could you please push me outside for a moment? I have something I'd like to talk to you about."
Matthew looked at him with confusion. Cillian could just say it here. Why did they have to talk outside?
When Matthew met Cillian's serious gaze, he understood that Cillian probably wanted to talk to him about that matter.
