Not only me, Matthew but everyone in the store was surprised to see Jack here.Although Jack did not directly manage his family's business, he was still the son of a wealthy family, moreover he was a young lecturer. This made him one of the typical young faces in the country.I didn't think Jack would come here to buy someone a maternity dress or a baby toy. Maybe he just passed by here, saw us in this shop, so he also came in to greet us."Why are you here?" Before I could speak, Matthew spoke first.Jack smiled, looking at me and Matthew. "Today I also want to go buy some miscellaneous items, just passing by here, I met two people so I went over to say hello."As expected, he answered exactly what I thought."If you're done with greetings, then go away, don't affect our happy mood." Matthew was extremely happy. He didn't seem to want to see Matthew.The first time I met the two of them, they also talked to each other in a very grumpy tone as if they wanted to compare who was better
It had faced great difficulty to be able to pull Matthew out of that mom-and-pop store.I originally planned to buy some things for my child there, but this plan was ruined by Matthew and Jack.After leaving that store, Jack and Matthew went their separate ways, both seemingly determined not to see each other again.We didn't have any interest in buying anything either, so as a result we both returned with only two dresses for me and nothing for our children.Until I got into the car, I didn't say a word to Matthew. Matthew knew that I was angry with him, so he didn't dare to cause trouble anymore."Why did you and your attitude to Jack become so harsh?" I asked Matthew coldly.This was his only chance to be honest, if he didn't give me a satisfactory answer then I would get really mad at you and stop talking to him. I swore to myself that this time I wouldn't forgive him so easily.A shopping trip that was supposed to be fun for me and Matthew was ruined halfway through, how could I
Matthew still seemed unhappy about it, but I ignored him. In fact, I was the one who had the right to feel discontent. It was very difficult for me and him to have the opportunity to go out together, but I didn't have a good time before I came back. We didn't even have the opportunity to eat outside, but returned to the mansion to eat.The feeling of looking forward to a trip but having to return before the scheduled time for some unconvincing reason made me not happy at all.Since being pregnant until now, I rarely go out of the mansion so I really wanted to go out. If I kept staying in the mansion, I would be sad to death.Because I knew that Jack had no bad intentions towards me, I was in a good mood, I wasn't angry with Matthew anymore, but what I didn’t expect was that he was not happy. This made me extremely angry.If he didn't want peace, I wouldn't give you peace. I stopped talking to Matthew until he calmed me down.Actually, even though I didn't want to admit it, when I foun
It was already getting dark when we returned to the Brown family mansion. I and Matthew waited for the car to stop at the Brown family's mansion, then it was time for dinner.Along the way, I worried a lot. When I first went to the Brown family mansion, I wasn't nervous at all. That time I didn't value my relationship with Matthew, nor did I need his parents' love, so of course I didn't need to worry, but this time it was a lot different. I was very worried very much, even though I knew in advance that they did not like me, in my heart I still hoped that they would blame me again.I had been in contact with Mr. and Mrs. Brown many times, especially Mrs. Brown. She was a good mother-in-law and a kind and generous woman. She treated me very well but unfortunately I made her sad.Actually, I had never regretted telling my friend to break up with that man because my words were my true thoughts. She was my best friend, so of course I wanted her to give up a bad person to find a better one.
When Matthew and I got out of the car, we saw a maid come out the door. As soon as she looked at us, that maid immediately showed a worried expression and ran right over to us as if something terrible was about to happen."What's wrong? Why do you have to run so fast?" Matthews asked the maid, looking displeased. Although Matthew didn't blame me every time I ran around, that didn't mean he wouldn't blame others. He was born into a wealthy family and lived an almost aristocratic lifestyle. From a young age he learned the rules about everything, including an important rule to be elegant when walking and standing, not to run around.Although the society was increasingly developed, the lifestyle of the upper-class families had changed slightly in the direction of more liberal and less rules, but some important rules were still maintained to this day.The maid was frightened by Matthew's words, she immediately stopped then approached us at her normal walking speed.When she was standing a
"Did he say anything else?" I carefully asked.I was afraid that a new storm would continue to strike. Life was full of difficulties, we still experienced the old waves and the new ones had already come.Alden had said so, showing that he had more or less doubts, and even had the evidence in his hand. But I thought the possibility of him grasping the evidence was not too high. Matthew was a careful man, so he wouldn't let anyone else get the proof of our marriage contract so easily.Our marriage was really a fake marriage so no matter how careful we were, there would be loopholes. If other people didn't suspect us, they could overlook some of those small loopholes, but if they already suspected us, they would definitely find evidence.I was a little scared, my hands involuntarily grasping Matthew's. I looked up at Matthew, silently asking him what to do.I didn't dare to hope that after tonight, the problems between me and Matthew's family would be completely resolved, just hoping thi
Our fake marriage might temporarily go undetected, but that didn't mean it wouldn’t be revealed. As long as Alden was suspicious, he would definitely be able to find out.I understood Laura's anxiety, I comforted her a lot, but in fact I was as worried as she was.If my parents and other members of the Brown family knew this, my position in Brown Corporation would be shaken. No one wanted to let a liar become a company leader.Although I married Laura initially because I had enough power to solve the problems in the Brown Corporation, it was no longer important now. My grandfather founded the Brown Corporation, he put all his effort into developing it. Thanks to the corporation, I was able to become the person I was today, so I did not let the Brown corporation fall. The Brown Corporation had gone through a difficult period, so even without my leadership, the Brown Corporation would still develop normally.In recent years, I had tried a lot, I had devoted my time, effort and everythi
The Brown family's mansion was still as beautiful and luxurious as before, the landscape around the mansion had not changed at all, even the flowerpot in the middle of the house was still a vase of orchids like the last time I came here. The landscape had not changed and the people hadnot changed either. Whatever the maids did, they would continue to do it.Although I was not too familiar with this mansion, the number of times I had stayed here is not too many. I hadn't even gone through all the mansion yet. That was right, this mansion was so big, how could I go through it after only a few times coming here.Like what Matthew had said, there was a large pasture behind the mansion, grazing many animals. I really wanted to go out there to visit but unfortunately I never got the chance to go there.The night wind blew my hair a little, and Matthew slowed down, helping me pull my hair back so the curls wouldn't cover my face."Are you thinking about something?" He asked softly. His voice
