Whatever had to come would come, even though I didn't want to see the Brown family. I felt ashamed when I faced the Browns and at the same time I did not like their son.Alden didn't like me and did a lot of things that made me uncomfortable, but Matthew and I couldn't deal with him the way we used to deal with Rebecca.No one wanted to live in a dysfunctional family. Matthew loved his brother very much, he certainly didn't want to see him suffer, only he couldn't force him to accept me as his sister-in-law.After he got together with Rebecca, Matthew cut off his funds. His life hadn't been so good lately but I didn't know how bad it was.I saw him call Matthew many times, Matthew didn't answer his phone but he kept calling. His missed calls lined up in a long line in Matthew's phone book. This proved that his life was probably not that easy.A Rich kid who had never had to think about money like he didn't had no money in hand, he would certainly find it difficult to accept.Time pass
"My mom called me just now." Matthew spoke slowly. As he spoke he paused for a moment like he was thinking how to talk to me about this.Since Matthew's parents were no longer satisfied with me, they also called Matthew less often, but they still cared about him very much. They would never forget to call and check on him, they only avoided talking about me.Still, they were very concerned about my unborn child, they frequently asked Matthew how my ultrasound was. After all, my children were also their grandchildren, even if they didn't like me like before, they couldn't ignore their grandchildren.It was normal for Mr and Mrs. Brown to call Matthew. When they stopped calling him, then it was time when something unusual happened. The problem that worried Matthew and didn't know how to tell me was the content of their conversation.In my head, I kept thinking, do they want Matthew to divorce me? The terrifying thought made me shiver but very quickly I regained my composure and cleared t
When I woke up suddenly, there was an arm around me. I had to compose myself for a moment before I could temporarily get rid of the fear that the dream brought."Matthew, I'm scared." I leaned on Matthew's shoulder, whispering in his ear.That dream was a fear I never wanted to think about. My mother passed away when I was young, but the pain of losing her was so great that I couldn't forget it. I was still very young then, I was just a five year old child, I didn't know the difference between life and death. I still vividly remember the image of my mother lying on the hospital bed, her lips were white, her eyes were extremely weak, but she still firmly held my hand, using all her strength to tell me two sentences, one was “sorry” and the other was “I love you, so much.”The image I had in my dream was very similar to the last images I had of my mother. Those were the images that I didn't want to see again in my life, once time was more than enough.Since I was only a child, I didn't
Matthew and I started to buy things to prepare for the birth of our baby. Matthew's office, which used to be right next to our bedroom, was moved and Matthew used that room as a bedroom for our baby.Matthew did not hire a designer to design our child's room, but he came up with all the ideas and looked for furniture to put in his son's room by himself. I couldn't even change the layout of that room. I used to blame Matthew for being dictatorial, but Matthew said that the second child's room would be decorated by me and the decoration of this room should be done by him.We hadn't had a baby yet, and Matthew was already thinking of a second. It was said that childbirth was hard work, labor pain was one of the most terrible pain. There was still a lot of time until I gave birth, but I was already starting to get scared. I didn't want to have a second child so quickly.Now we could know the child's gender, but Matthew didn't want to know yet. He wanted to keep that suspense until our bab
This time Matthew and I mainly went shopping for our child. Matthew wanted to enjoy the feeling of being like normal fathers who could choose each item for their child, so he didn't ask the store staff to bring our mansion but go to shop like normal people.Recently Matthew's legs had been much better, all his training efforts had also paid off.Although if Matthew walked for a long time he would still be tired, but if he walked for a short period of time, he absolutely could.This time going to the mall, Matthew didn't want to bring a wheelchair because he saw that it was not necessary to bring a wheelchair, but I still insisted on forcing him to bring it. If Matthew walked for too long, he would be tired, I suppose if he got tired he should be in a wheelchair immediately.Matthew was of course not satisfied, but he still had to agree. At that time, his eyebrows wrinkled, he looked like a child forced by adults to do something he didn't like.Matthew was already an adult but sometime
The car stopped at the mall when I had just closed my eyes for a few seconds. I glared angrily at Matthew. “Do you remember what you just said?”“If you want we can drive around town before we get here.” Matthew put on the appearance of an upright man who was not afraid of anything.It really pissed me off."I don't have that kind of free time." I looked at Matthew disgruntled."Okay, don't be so angry anymore, I'll buy you anything you like later, absolutely don't refuse.""How dare you refuse?" I looked at Matthew.“It's my honor, why would I refuse.” Matthew smiled.The driver in front laughed lightly, I was a little embarrassed so I didn't say anything, just looked at Matthew, using my eyes to ask him not to say anything more or I would be angry with him.Matthew immediately fell silent. The driver knew he was bothering me and Matthew so he immediately put his hand over his mouth.I shyly got out of the car, just thinking that the driver might have had to try not to laugh at us du
Matthew and I entered the store that he and I saw as soon as the elevator doors opened. This store was decorated very luxuriously but still retained the cozy feeling like a family. As soon as we entered the store, the staff quickly came out to greet us. "May I help you? What do you need?" An employee asked. Her gaze on Matthew seemed to light up, perhaps she recognized who Matthew was. "I want to choose for my wife some clothes that suit her, are there any maternity dresses in your store that look a bit light and elegant?" As soon as Matthew mentioned the two words "my wife", the employee's eyes opened extremely wide. Surprise was evident on her face. A lot of other people also turned to look at Matthew and me, obviously they didn't think he was married either. "Excuse me." Seeing that the employee did not answer, Matthew spoke up. Startled, she immediately nodded vigorously. "Yes, of course we do. Our brand is a brand specializing in mother and baby products. The items in the st
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
After the wedding party was over, we immediately went on our honeymoon. Where we went was the golden beach in the south of the country. It was one of the most beautiful beaches in the country. There was also a legend that said that couples who went there together would stay together forever.The two of us were originally planning to go on our honeymoon overseas, but because Matthew was still worried about my health, he didn't want me to go away.I emphasized to Matthew many times that my health was stable, the doctor also said that my health was much better but Matthew still did not believe it. He insisted that I still hadn't fully recovered.I also argued with Matthew. Anyway, for me, traveling domestically or abroad was not too different. If so, I would let Matthew choose where he wanted to go.Matthew was really looking forward to his honeymoon. He prepared a lot so that the two of us could have the sweetest moments. Just pitiful for my son being left at home. I wanted to take my s
After thinking a lot, we decided to name my son Hubert. Matthew and I did not expect Hubert to be more talented than Matthew, but only wished he could grow up in peace, health and happiness.Hopefully the Brown family fights would end here. These fights had indeed caused many heartbreaking consequences. Human greed was scary, hatred was even more terrifying. If Matthew's uncle had not had an affair, this tragedy would not have happened. After all, James was still a pitiful person.I sympathized with him, but I could not help him and dare not help him. Who knew what troubles he could cause when he escaped the Brown family's supervision?I didn’t want my son to know the evil tricks and excessive desires of people. As a mother, I hoped my son would be an innocent child, but I understood that in order for him to be at peace, he needed to know how to protect himself and of course he had to know the evil and wickedness in society so that he could be prevented. No matter how much I wanted to
“Let me… take a closer look at you.” I lowered my voice. It was very difficult for me to say right now. When I finished the sentence, I was out of breath.Matthew brought the baby closer to me, and at the same time gave me advice in a low voice. "Don't try to talk anymore, you have to take good care of your health before you can take care of the baby."Indeed, I was very tired right now, it took me a lot of effort to open my eyes. As long as I could see my baby and Matthew and confirm that they are safe, I had nothing to worry about. I could rest assured to wait until I was really healthy so that I could hold my baby in my arms.The baby was really small, because it had not been long since his birth, so his skin was a bit red, his eyes were closed, he was still used to sleeping a lot. Matthew said that he looked a lot like me but all the babies that had just been born were so similar, I couldn't tell right now our baby was more like Matthew.After I woke up, I had to stay in the hospi
A truck was right in front of me, it went at extremely high speed towards me. It seemed that I was so small that the driver did not recognize me. He was still going at a very high speed.I reflexively dodged the truck but my running speed couldn't be as fast as the truck's. In the moment I thought I was about to die, the driver turned the wheel a little to the right.I fell to the ground but reflexively rolled to the side to avoid the oncoming truck.Finally the truck stopped, and although I was lucky not to be run over, my head was hit by a rock. My blood came out a lot. Before I went into a coma, I raised my hand to touch it. Red blood stained my arm.My belly suddenly pain, I reflexively put my hand on my belly. Baby, You had to be strong, we had to wait for your father to come save us. We would both be fine. Just get rid of Kate and James, we wouldn't need to fear anything anymore.That was the only wish that I wanted to pray to God. Please God, don't let anything happen to my bab
I couldn't let Kate and James use me to hurt Matthew. If they could use me once, they could use me many more times. I didn't allow myself to be Matthew's weakness.“I will not let you achieve your evil wishes.” I didn’t hesitate to tell her.“Now that you have no more decision-making power, all decisions are in my hands.” Kate said arrogantly."Really?" I smiled.“Where do you get the confidence to talk to me like that? Do you think you're still Matthew's wife? Do you think you are still in such a high position to tell us?” Kate was angry. “I tell you, you are just a hostage in my hands right now. Your life and death are all my decisions, so you don't have the right to raise your voice to me."“James must have investigated a lot of things related to me.” I looked at her.She also looked straight into my face, her eyebrows raised. She wanted to show that she had more power than me now.I sighed, let her be pleased now, after all, she didn't always have the opportunity to be so pleased.
The maid's face was so scary right now, her eyes were cold, I had never seen that look on her body.“Kate!” I shouted. “We're going somewhere?” Kate was the maid's name.“Go where we need to go.” She smirked, her face extremely scary. Up until now, she had always been a gentle person, even sometimes losing out compared to other maids but she was still happy and didn't want to compete with anyone. Although she was not very agile and was respected by others, she was always smiling and cheerful.Sometimes I admired her very much. There were times when I felt that this life was too difficult. I would look at how she was always cheerful and optimistic so as not to lose faith in life.I felt that she had the best personality among the maids in the mansion but just one look in her eyes made me feel that my previous judgments were completely wrong.She was not as simple as she appeared on the outside.Car windows were not closed tightly. Cold winds blew into the car, making the already cold a
Holding the phone in my hand, I felt that my heart rate was extremely fast. Without thinking much, I called Matthew's office.His secretary said that he went out with Brian a long time ago and still hadn't come back. I asked her where Matthew had gone, she just said that Matthew was suddenly out, which was completely out of his schedule. He didn't mention anything else, so they didn't know where he was going.The secretary's words really made me unable to calm down. Where did Matthew go? Why didn't you answer my phone? Why didn't even Brian answer my phone? Did the two of them meet something bad?Matthew's sudden no news plus Rebecca's warning messages and my previous scary dreams made it impossible for me to think of anything good.My baby kicked me repeatedly in the stomach as if to remind me that I had to calm down but I still had no way to calm down.All the signs around me point to something bad, so I couldn't calm down.I was extremely tired, my legs suddenly became soft and the
I woke up from a scary dream. My whole body was drenched in sweat. I tried not to control my breathing but still couldn't worship normally. What should I do to get out of this depressed state?I didn't know and not many people could tell me the answer.The air inside the mansion was always as fresh as the first day I came here, but this freshness couldn't make me calm down and think about good things.I tried learning to meditate, but it didn't work for me either.I didn't find Rebecca, but that didn't mean she didn't find me.When the housemaid told me that Rebecca was visiting me, I couldn't help but be surprised. After bad news about her appeared in major newspapers, her reputation went downhill. Even her family's business was affected, her father was furious and froze her assets.After that incident, Rebecca lost a lot, she no longer had a career, no longer had the support of her family, and could only struggle to find a new direction.Maybe she really hated me and Matthew. Not on
"Absolutely can't let Matthew out today." That was what was on the message. I didn't know what the purpose of this message was but I was really scared.Why couldn't Matthew go out today? The message did not specify the reason but only such a line of warning.Why was that person texting me and not Matthew? This question had been repeated over and over in my head. The only reason that I could think of right now was that the person thinks that I was a person who easily believed other people's words. If this message had been sent to Matthew, he would have probably deleted it and didn't care about it. But I was different, I couldn't ignore these things.Because happiness was so hard to come by, I was afraid of losing everything I had right now. I was a weak person, weaker than I thought of myself.I held the phone in my hand for a long time, until the phone screen turned black, I did not put it down, nor did I make the phone screen light up, but just stared at the black screen and thought
