I'm Glad We Met After Marriage Chapter 231
I struggled to untie and re-tie my shoelaces. While I was doing that, the woman came closer. Her voice was low and creepy, like she came from underground. “Rachel, why are you so scared of me? I’m your mother.”Mother? I looked up in confusion and tried to make out her face. Was this Scarlett, the woman Cameron had told me about?“You’re not my mom! You just want to be! My dad doesn’t like you anymore! Go away!”“Why doesn’t he like me? I’m so good and so pretty! Is it because you don’t like me? What do you not like about me? Do you like that woman next to you better? What’s so special about her? What’s so special?”Oh, I finally understood. She was not Scarlett. She was the woman Cameron almost married, but he later changed his mind.I finished tying my shoelaces and stood up. Then, I pulled Rachel close to me. The woman was speaking fast, and her words were all over the place. She sounded really upset, maybe even a little crazy.“Ms. Fowler?” I said cautiously.“You’re Cassia.

Rachel’s tears fell onto my hand as she cried and called out to me. But I just yelled, “Run!”She ran down the hill in tears, and I watched her small figure disappear from my sight. Ms. Fowler was about to give chase, so I lunged at her and wrapped my arms around her waist.She started struggling, like a fish pulled out of the water.She did not have as much strength as I did, and after spending the night outside, she seemed worn out. I used all my energy to hold her in place.Rachel should have gotten far away. Besides, she was smart. When she saw Sophie and the others, she would know to get help.Ms. Fowler screamed in my arms. I felt awful, as I might go deaf from her yelling. I was going to be both blind and deaf. What a miserable life.I held on to her for a long time. When I finally ran out of energy, Ms. Fowler broke free.I fell to the ground and panted as if I had run a marathon.Ms. Fowler did not give up and ran after Rachel. Meanwhile, I leaned against the bench a

“I’ve only been blind for a little while. You’ve been in Madrid for about a month, right?”“You’re really blind?” She sounded relieved. “How did that happen?”“My ex-husband.” I kept it brief.She was surprised. “Zach did this? I thought you two were divorced. Why is this happening? Men are all terrible.” She actually seemed to understand me. “No matter how good you are to them, they’ll ditch you without a second thought.”I leaned against the window. I was sweaty from our previous struggle, so the wind felt chilly.However, Ms. Fowler seemed eager to chat. “Do you want to know why Cameron suddenly broke up with me?”I was not interested in their story. So, I just pursed my lips and stayed in my position.She shook my hand. “He didn’t say much. He just told me that I wasn’t suitable to be his wife. Then, he gave me some money and sent me away. Did he think I was a beggar?”“If being a beggar could get someone so much money, everyone would do it.”“What do you mean?” She was re

Cameron’s call quickly followed, and Ms. Fowler snatched the phone to answer it.She was excited, so she spoke quickly and nervously. I could not see her face well, but I could tell that deep down, she knew that things were over with Cameron. She sounded desperate.“Cameron, Cassia has a boyfriend now. She’s also having her ex-husband’s babies. Do you really want to marry someone like her?”I covered my ears because I did not want to hear anymore.Cameron did not love her anymore. No matter what she did, nothing would change that.I had no idea what Cameron said, but Ms. Fowler started crying. “Cameron, you know I love you. I really love you,” she said.Love caused so many people so much pain.Ms. Fowler kept talking to Cameron. He wanted to talk to me, but she would not give me the phone. Instead, she cried and yelled, “What do you want to say to her? She has a boyfriend now!”I could not take it anymore. I grabbed the phone and hung up. “Ms. Fowler, what do you think you’ll a

“He already agreed to marry you. What are you still worried about?”“Right.” She squeezed my wrist tightly, and she was clearly excited. “Cassia, will you be attending the ceremony?”“I can’t see.”“Oh, right.” She contemplated for a moment and muttered, “You shouldn’t come. You might get jealous.”She really had some serious issues.Even though I had never seen her, I was certain that she was attractive. Otherwise, Cameron would not have been interested in her. He almost married her after all.She had been on the cusp of entering high society, so it was no wonder that Ms. Fowler became a bit unstable.Honestly, it was her greed that kept her so obsessed.The rich could not find true love.My love for Zach had been sincere. My family was rich, so I did not need to marry him to improve my life.One piece of bread was not enough. I slumped on the couch because I had become too weak from hunger. Ms. Fowler was super excited, and she would not stop talking.While she chattered,

“Cassia.” Cameron’s voice trembled as he called out to me. I could tell that he was scared. “Are you okay?”His face was so close that I could smell the light scent of his cologne.“I’m fine. Just hungry,” I said.“I’ll take you home for food.”As someone who had just been kidnapped, the only thing I wanted after being saved was food.The moment we stepped inside his house, I heard loud crying.“What’s going on?” I changed my shoes. Before I could move further, I saw two figures—one big, one small—rush into my arms.“Cassia, I was so scared!” Sophie hugged me tightly and sobbed. I did not think I had ever seen her cry like that before. She would always try to act tough, like a “hardcore warrior.”Well, this warrior just melted into a mess in my arms.Rachel hugged my leg and sobbed too.I sighed. “Girls, I’m fine. There’s no need to cry this much.”“Cassia, if something had happened to you, I might as well have died in Somalia.”“Madrid, not Somalia,” I corrected her.She

I kept eating as Rachel sat quietly next to me. I figured everything that happened today must have scared her. I reached over and patted her head. “That was just a freak incident. There’s no need to be scared.”“I’m not scared. Cassia, thank you for saving me.” Rachel held my hand. “At kindergarten, I learned that what you did is called ‘self-sacrifice.’”I was surprised and kind of proud that she learned this in kindergarten. “You’re giving me too much credit.”“Credit? I’m not giving you money,” she said.I had just complimented her Sommersettese in my mind. “Ask your dad to find you a teacher so that you can learn more about Sommerset’s culture,” I said.Meanwhile, my phone kept buzzing. Sophie must have told everyone. People kept calling in a panic and asking if I was okay. I told them that I was fine and safe.Eloise and Mary knew about it too, and even Tyler gave me a call.His tone was serious. “If you need a break, I support that. Just be careful.”I was not taking a br

Cameron came back long after we had finished dinner. I was telling Rachel a story.She had become more dependent on me after what happened. She wrapped her arms around my neck while I spoke.When Cameron arrived, he picked Rachel up from my arms. “Cassia’s tired today. You need to let her rest.”“But I want Cassia to sleep with me.”“You move a lot in your sleep, and Cassia’s pregnant.”After some convincing, Rachel finally agreed to let me return to my room. Cameron said, “I’ve never seen her so attached to someone.”While it was nice, it was not entirely good for Rachel to rely on me so much. I was Cameron’s friend, and our relationship would not go further.“Rachel’s an insecure child. She tends to be hostile toward the women around me. She used to feel that way about you too, but her hostility faded over time. After what happened this morning, she sees you as someone who can protect her.”“I didn’t think much about this morning. Since Winter was after you, I was worried tha

I'm Glad We Met After Marriage Chapter 438
It was late at night, and everyone was too tired to do anything. I was heavily pregnant, and Sophie had no energy left. So, she stopped fighting back. She just collapsed onto the bed and pulled the blanket over her head.Lucy had already fallen asleep. She was young, and she could sleep through anything, including all our talking.Austin was as cold as ice while he sat on the couch. Since I could not convince him to budge, I gave him some water and went back to sleep.He could do whatever he wanted.When I closed the door, I saw him staring at the bed. The look in his eyes was soft and almost dreamy. I could sense love from where I stood.Did he really love Lucy? I could not believe it because I never thought he felt that way about her.I was exhausted, and my mind was all over the place. I went to sleep and had no idea when Austin left.The next morning, Sophie appeared at my door with a pillow.“If you didn’t sleep well last night, you can sleep a little longer. You’re

“I’m not scared. With Austin to protect me, what do I have to worry about? But I think you’re pretty pathetic, Sophie. I show up, and you just give me your room. Tsk, tsk, tsk.” Lucy shook her head. “So pathetic.”Sophie simply stared at her. Lucy was nervous, but she was trying to put on a tough front.Right after, Sophie wore an eerie and unsettling smile.“Fine. You want to sleep with me? Let’s do it. After all, I’m scared of you.” With that, she went back into the room. “It’s time for a shower. Who’s going first, you or me?”Since Lucy had won, she gave me a smug look. “Sophie’s so easy to deal with.”“I don’t think you’ll enjoy sleeping in the same room with her as much as you think,” I warned.The room next door became eerily quiet after I returned to my room.I knew that Sophie would not hurt Lucy. She was not one to go overboard.I texted her. [If you don’t want to share a room with her, come to mine.][It’s fine. The bed’s big enough,] Sophie replied.Alright, then.
I'm Glad We Met After Marriage Chapter 436
As I approached Sophie’s room, the yelling got increasingly loud and made my ears hurt.I opened the door to see her dragging Lucy out by the ear. Lucy was screaming, “Sophie, let go! You’re a barbarian! Austin told me to stay here! Who are you to kick me out? This isn’t even your house!”“This is my house.” I stepped aside to avoid the chaos. “And I’m telling you to leave.”“Austin said I could stay!” “Austin isn’t the king of the world.” I sneered. “Why should I listen to him?”Before I could finish, Sophie had already dragged Lucy to the door. I opened it wide so that she could toss her out.Lucy clung to the doorframe like her life depended on it. “I’m not leaving! Sophie, if you kick me out, what will you do when Austin comes looking for me?”Sophie grabbed a feather duster that Mrs. Gibson had left behind and marched toward Lucy.She started screaming, “Sophie, what are you doing?! Don’t hit me! Sophie! Stop!”Sophie raised the feather duster up high. I knew that she wo

Sophie completely ruined a happy moment.I looked at her. “You’re not still hoping for something with Austin, are you?”“Of course not!” she raised her voice. “I’m not a masochist!”Just then, Mrs. Gibson knocked on the door. “Ms. Cassia Freeman, Ms. Sophie Freeman, someone’s here to see you.”Who could it be this late?We went downstairs and saw Lucy at the front door with a suitcase.She simply would not leave us alone.My head hurt when I saw her.Lucy saw us and walked right in without taking off her shoes. “I told you Cassia and Sophie know who I am! Cassia, your housekeeper’s so rude. She wouldn’t let me in.”“Hey, what are you doing?” Sophie blocked her path. “Take another step, and I’ll get security to throw you out.”“Starting today, I’ll be staying here.” Lucy sat on her suitcase and grinned.“What are you talking about? Are you sure you’re not crazy?”I did not want to argue with her. “Did Austin kick you out?”Lucy was like glue. Once she stuck to you, you coul

“Do you want to talk to Sophie?” I asked, even though I knew he would not say anything nice.As expected, he wore the usual mocking smile. “Talk to that idiot? No thanks.”He hung up, and the screen went black.I was so mad that I felt like my heart might stop. Austin never got angry or showed big emotions, but his calm sarcasm was enough to drive anyone crazy.Just then, Sophie ran over and held out her hand. She was sweating and out of breath. “Where’s Rachel’s water bottle? She’s thirsty.”I gave it to her, and she asked, “Who were you talking to?”“An idiot,” I replied.“Oh.” She ran off again without giving it a second thought.We ended up playing there until sundown. Rachel was all sweaty, so I helped her change in the car. Although it was already spring, it was still a little chilly without the sun.We headed home and invited Kingston to join us for dinner.He gave Sophie the mechanical kite. Our garden was big, so she could fly it anytime.We did not usually have gue

“Let Bob go. Tell Zach to hang the thermos on its neck.”“Isn’t that a bit much?”“He told me that if I didn’t drink his soup, Bob could have it. So, what’s the problem with letting Bob fetch it?”Mrs. Gibson walked away with a troubled expression, and I continued building the sandcastle.Rachel suddenly looked up and asked, “Cassia, don’t you like that guy anymore?”“I don’t like him anymore,” I said.“Is he bad?”“He’s not bad. I just don’t like him anymore.”“You can like my dad, then. He’s handsome, and he knows how to make cheese pizza.”Well, my standards were a little higher than someone who could make cheese pizza.I was not sure what happened to Zach’s soup because I never saw it. His cooking was not that great, and we already had good cooks at home. Mrs. Gibson, Mrs. Ziegler, and Mrs. Harrison made amazing soups. They were from different places, so I got to try food from all over.As such, Zach’s soup was not needed.I never thought there would come a day when I

“When did your head get so square?” I looked at the metal block for a while, but I could not see how it resembled Sophie.“This robot doesn’t have to look like me. The important part is its core. It can follow my commands, and Kingston said he’ll add my voice to it later.”“What can it do? A two-hundred-dollar smart box can already do things like turn lights on and off or flush the toilet.”“Tch, this is different. Apart from following my commands, it can also read my emotions. It’ll then play the appropriate music to improve my mood.”That sounded interesting. “It should be a mood helper instead of a robot.”“Kingston also mentioned that it has a special function if I get really upset.”“Will it explode into fireworks?”“Tch.” She rolled her eyes and hugged the robot. “I don’t know. He didn’t say.”Sophie seemed to like the gift.However, Kingston did not really give it to her because she was fond of it. He just happened to study this stuff.I was incredibly tired, so I turn

“I think it’s great that he has his own principles. A lot of people today don’t have any,” Sophie interjected.It was time to change the subject. Everyone had their own views on such things anyway.“Let’s toast to those with principles,” I said to Rachel.She raised her juice cup in response. “Cheers!”“Alright, cheers.” Oscar and Ellie smiled as they clinked glasses with us.We finished eating, and Sophie had two glasses of wine. I did not allow her to have more. Kingston finally returned as well.He was not full, so he ate the leftovers.Sophie asked him how things went, and he looked up in confusion. “The head of the company whose tech was stolen came too. He claimed that it wasn’t their tech, but they’re working on something similar. He kept promoting it.”“What happened after that?”“Nothing. The police just let those two individuals go.” Kingston shook his head and went back to eating.The whole thing seemed strange. I thought about it, but I could not put my finger on
I'm Glad We Met After Marriage Chapter 430
After a while, Kingston came downstairs. He looked upset, so Sophie asked, “What’s wrong?”“Two people visited the company today to discuss a deal. They offered a high price,” Kingston said.“Isn’t that good?”“At first, I thought so too. But as we talked, something felt off. They brought some tech for the collaboration, but I realized that another company had just created it. They might have stolen it.”“How can they steal someone else’s stuff?”“There are lots of ways.” Kingston peeled an orange and gave half to Sophie before eating the rest himself. “I turned them down, but they kept trying to rope me in.”“Would that tech be useful to you?” I asked.“Of course. It would save us at least a month of work.”Sophie’s eyes lit up as she looked at him. Just then, Ellie brought over a plate of fruit and teased, “Kingston’s too stubborn. If he were a bit more flexible, he’d be super successful by now.”“A gentleman earns money the right way.” Kingston’s stubbornness was somehow
