Genius Girl

Chapter 18 - 18: Matthew Su

Matthew is her father\'s cousin. He was the only twenty-three and had lived in London since he graduated from high school. She barely sees him, not even in Christmas, he loves photography and hated the office job, which must be the reason why he left the country.

Her head tilted as she stayed looking at him, unlike before, her uncle Matthew\'s appearance has changed. His usual black hair had been dyed in a blonde and his skin became whiter.

His face was clean, not a single beard, while his eyebrows were trimmed.

Her face wrinkled, "Uncle Matthew, did you trim your eyebrows?" she curiously asked.

"Yup, I am trying to figure out why my ex left me. I thought it was my brows but, since she\'s still not back, I guess it was something else," when Matthew said that, his eyes were looking at the television.

Selena leaned her back against the couch, arms crossed together. Her uncle Matthew has a good sense of humor uncle her Uncle Evan who\'s always serious.

"Why are you here again?" she asked. Since her uncle Matthew left five years ago, she had only seen him once and that was when her mother died.

"I heard my ex is here so I am going to find her," he got up, excitement shone in his eyes.

Selena rose an eyebrow, since her mother\'s funeral, her uncle had been bragging about his girlfriend, saying she was a perfect girl.

"She broke up with you?" she faked a gasp and laugh sarcastically.

"This brat!" Matthew threw a pillow at her, Selena dodges it and hides behind Anders back.

"You said ex so it means she broke up with you. Then, if that\'s the case, are you here to take her back?" her lips curved a teasing smile, one thing she loves the most was to tease her uncle Matthew, he\'s always sweet to her and treated her coolly, unlike her uncle Evan who\'s always cold and strict.

"I am not sure, if she\'s still as beautiful as she was before then yes but if she grew a pimple then no. I can\'t have my perfect genes mixed up," Matthew clicked his tongue repeatedly after taking a long sigh.

Selena scoffed and then sat on the armchair where he was sitting.

"How does she look like?" Selena asked.

"Well, she\'s short. I am pretty sure you are taller than her. She had this vanilla scent when she sweat and her eyes, oh! They are so beautiful and round and her lips, tsk. That witch is too clever, she had never let me taste it," Matthew blew in a deep sigh. His face, which was once shone with excitement darkened.

"Why did she leave me, Selena? I mean, I am perfect. Handsome, beautiful, rich, and I have a good sense of humor. Right?"

Selena shook her head, unsure whether to pity him or mock him. She had never seen her uncle acted like this to a girl.

"Look, uncle. Just get a new girlfriend, if she didn\'t allow you to kiss her maybe she doesn\'t really love you. Maybe she just didn\'t find you handsome and maybe she wants someone richer than you," she has decided to console him.

"You are right. There is nothing wrong with me. Well, it\'s her loss, she didn\'t get to enjoy this body," as he said that, his hand stretched to boast his body while his expression brightened up.

Selena smiled inside, a plan flashed in her mind.

(Now that my uncle Matthew is here. I can finally get rid of that babysitter) she laughed wickedly inside. Her eyes shone with wickedness.

With a plan in her mind, Selena pulled her uncle\'s body back to the couch and positioned both of her hands on his shoulder, massaging it lightly.

"So, Uncle. You can maybe move on to my babysitter. She\'s young, small, pretty and she has big b.o.o.b.s," she snickered, eyes widened as she glared at Anders who was trying to send her a message to shut up.

"Hmm.. big b.o.o.b.s. Alright, how beautiful is she? Give me a number," Mathew\'s hand massages his chin, thinking deeply about Selena\'s offer.

Selena took in a deep breathe, "If we won\'t count her height, she would be 11 considering the highest number is ten," she said it in almost a whisper.

She could feel her uncle\'s body frost for a moment.

"Uncle Evan kissed her. That\'s how beautiful she is," her uncle Matthew got up, his eyes went round with shock.

"Whoa! Really?" Matthew smiled like a drooling dog.

And seeing her uncle\'s expression, Selena got up and stood next to him.

"So, are you going after her? I can get you her number," she bit on her lower lips, preventing herself from showing how excited she is.

"Wait," her uncle Matthew seized both of her arms and looked deeply at her with suspicion.

"What would you get from doing this?"

Selena bravely met his eyes, she gulped and smiled.

"I don\'t want a babysitter. And she\'s too," she grunted as she remembered how Daniella forced her to do something she hated like eating the vegetable or sleeping late.

"She\'s, ugh!l she ordered me to fix my own bed! Can you believe that!" veins popped out in her neck as she fumingly said those words.

"Oh! Well, no worries Darling. I will make her busy. So, when do I get to meet his babysitter?" Matthew maliciously smiled; he had sat back on the couch after seeing Selena\'s expression. He knew very well that he needs to be away from her when she\'s angry.

"She will be back next week. Anyway, uncle Matthew. You better be prepared. She\'s a feisty one. Even uncle Evan quiet down when she\'s angry."

As the challenge rushed over his body, Matthew\'s eyes sparkled with excitement.

"Well, Your babysitter is nothing, Selena. As long as it\'s not Daniella Chen, I can tame any woman. It doesn\'t matter how fierce they are" He victoriously smiled, looking at the phone on his hands with his ex-girlfriend picture as a wallpaper.

Selena was stunned for a moment. When she looked at her uncle\'s phone, her face became flat.

She depressingly blew a sigh and patted one of Matthew\'s shoulder.

Her shoulder slumped as she occupied one of the single sofas, she cried inside, her hope has faded.

"What\'s wrong Selena," her uncle asked after seeing her gloomy expression.

"Nothing Uncle. Nothing!" inside she consoled herself. Maybe Daniella meeting her uncle which happened to be her ex would make her feel uncomfortable and later leave.
