Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 1275 Still want to tell me it doesn't matter?

Matthew does not know that he is being talked about by a group of subordinates of the company.

He took the young girl to dinner before leaving her at home.

On his return he immediately called Serena and the two brothers booked a private room.

Serena had come alone, and initially Cristian had wanted to accompany her, but Serena had not agreed, feeling that what she was about to say was quite serious and that there was a point in taking Cristian there.

And if Cristian went, Manuel would definitely go with him.

So she ended up going out alone, and Matteo went to get her.

The two brothers ordered some dishes and sat down to eat and talk.

It had been a long time since the two had sat down to eat together like this. In the past, Matteo had been a sisterly man, and after replaceing his sister he had adored her and wanted to give her everything. But when Serena found her place, her time became almost exclusively Cristian's, so the chances of the two brothers meeting became especially rare.

Now that they were sitting together again, Serena sighed and suddenly thought about how many times Matthew had flown around the country and abroad when she had just had a baby and Anna had just fallen in love with Matthew.

A faint smile appeared on Serena's face as she thought about it.

"What can you think of that's so funny?"

Matteo's mood softened a little when he saw a smile appear on his sister's face, and he spoke to her in a very gentle tone.

Serena said softly, "Nothing, I was just thinking about old times."

"Old times?"

"Well, back then, when we were just back, you had to work every day and always ended up flying abroad, and at that time, my brother had lost a lot of weight, but he didn't even complain about being tired." Matthew was also touched by the memory of that time.

After a long time, he smiled slightly, "What's wrong with that? You're the only sister I have, so it's my responsibility to take care of you."

"Yes, at that time I was afraid that I would not marry you, but now I don't have to worry anymore."

Matthew was thoughtful at the mention of this, and did not respond, only raised his hand and brought his fork to Serena's plate, and they ate in silence for a while.

Serena suddenly asked, "Brother, what are you going to do with Sabrina?"

Matthew's face did not change at that moment: Huh?

Serena smiled, "I mean, she's in a bad place, but the two families were family friends, are you sure you don't want to help out?"

Matteo curled his lips and then explained in a lighter voice, "Sabrina is very much like Uncle, if he says he doesn't need my help, then he doesn't need it.

The two of them, after all, had already spent time together, so Matteo knew well what kind of person Sabrina was.

At this tone of voice, Serena's guard went up, however, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

"Does the brother know Sabrina well?"

"Which Sabrina?" corrected Matteo with a helpless look at her, "She is several years older than you, our families are family, you should call her sister."

Serena shrugged, "I do when I'm in her presence, but isn't it easier when I'm talking to you now? Besides, it's just a name, doesn't it mean anything? Why do you care so much?"

Matthew frowned slightly, "Who says a name means nothing, we Giordano family and the Ronzi family were very close, Uncle him ......"

"Brother." Serena interrupted, "Are you engaged to Sabrina?"

"

There was no sound from the table.

Serena also did not continue eating, but stared at Matteo seriously, "Is it true?"

Matteo half-closed his thin lips and after a moment's pause continued to eat in his bowl with a light expression, "It was all when I was a child, it's been so many years and no one has talked about it since, this engagement doesn't count."

"Doesn't count?" Serena blinked, "Was it just a verbal engagement at first, or was there an exchange of some kind of pledge?"

"No." Matthew shook his head, "From what I said, I don't think there was an exchange of tokens, it was just a joke of the old women, it was mentioned several times, although it was never officially executed." "So you never took it to heart?" Serena asked.

Matteo nodded, "Well, why should it matter when it's a child's game?"

His expression looked like he didn't really care, but Serena thought about the look and expression Sabrina had shown when she had told the receptionist that day, all serious and attentive.

It was obvious that she had taken the matter to heart.

And this time she had come back to Matteo in such a desperate state, but not to seek help, but just to come and see him.

Thinking about this, Serena felt a question come to her mind.

She looked at Matteo and spoke slowly, "You don't care, but ... what if Sabrina takes it seriously, or even cares about it?"

At her words, Matteo's expression was quite surprised and he raised his eyebrows, "Not so much, she never mentioned it, and besides, we haven't spoken in years.

Men are really blunt, they can't understand the inner workings of a woman's mind, even her brother is the same.

Serena could not resist teasing Matteo.

Come to think of it, her brother was probably the same way, probably all men.

He sighed helplessly and then said, "Brother, you really don't understand women, just because she didn't talk about it doesn't mean she doesn't care."

Hearing this, Matthew felt that he finally understood why his sister had approached him today.

"Is that why you came to see me today?"

"Why, do you think it's no big deal?"

Matthew looked at her rather helplessly.

"I thought my sister wanted to have dinner with me as her brother, but I didn't think it was about that, don't worry, I will take care of it."

"So can you tell me what you are going to do?" Serena asked snooping.

Matthew: ".

"You don't even know if people care about the engagement, how can you take care of it?"

"Serena, you are the one who is overthinking it."

"Am I the one thinking about it too much?" Serena smiled weakly, "Then can you tell me why she came to you after her family had fallen apart? If it wasn't to ask for help, why did she do it?"

Matteo blinked.

"Don't tell me you have the free time to come to an old friend to recuperate when times are so hard, why don't I ask for her if she has been to someone else?"

Matthew half-closed his thin lips and looked seriously at this sister of his.

"Is it that you cannot answer? Why don't you let me answer for you?

Since she cared about the marriage contract and you as a person, she came to you first after it was established."

"Serena ......"

"So now you're going to tell me it doesn't matter?"
