I had lived more than thirty years in this world, I had faced a lot of difficulty but the things that could make me feel tired and helplessness that could only be counted on the fingers.The first thing was when I realized that human capacity was limited, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't defeat destiny. Just one accident nearly ruined my previous efforts.I had money, a lot of money. I could use money to hire the best doctor to treat me but no matter how good a doctor was, he was just a human, And even with more money I had to face the possibility of becoming disabled my whole life.There was a time when I put in a lot of effort. I practiced whenever I had time with the desire to get the fastest results, but a careless fall made all my efforts futile and even made my legs even worse.After my efforts were fruitless, for the first time in my life, I was forced to surrender to my fate. I began to become difficult, irritable, even at times I tried to do extreme actions.I remembere
Looking at Laura's heartbroken and tired face, my heart was like being strangled by someone, I didn't allow anyone to hurt Laura, including myself. If someone hurted her then I had to stand up for her.When someone showed a video aimed at defaming Laura at the party we celebrated the arrival of our baby, I was so angry, I also guessed who did this.No outsider had a chance to ruin our family party this way so the person that came to my mind first was Alden. I used to think that my brother was just playful and childish, he wouldn't be able to cause trouble. Alden was born into the Brown family, he was educated rigorously about protecting the family's reputation.I didn't expect that he didn't value his family's reputation and was willing to destroy it just because he hated Laura.I was really disappointed in Alden. Now was the time for him to know that each person has to carry a certain responsibility. The responsibility rested on the shoulders of each member of the Brown family and ma
Jack and I were not too close, based on my observations of him in the times we met. I thought that he was not a bad person, but people were always unpredictable. Above all, I should still be on guard.Matthew and he had known each other since childhood, he would definitely know him better than I did."And the one who bribed others to spread that video was Rebecca, right?" I approached Matthew, asking him. However, there was not a hint of doubt in my voice, but with certainty.Matthew nodded. "I already found the evidence, it was her. The evidence that proves she put you on the internet in my hands is enough to sue her but we wouldn't use that. I have many ways to punish her, hitting on her family's economy is the easiest way." Matthew rolled his eyes."No." I spoke up, I didn't think this was a good way. "Brown Corporation and her family's company have a partnership in many ways, if her family has economic problems, Brown corporation will also be affected. We should find another way,
Matthew did everything very fast, I only told him the idea yesterday but when I woke up early in the morning and turned on my phone, Rebecca's news appeared on a series of social networking sites with so many titles."A superstar is entangled in suspicion of drug use.""The female star has a shady relationship with a married director.""The Last War’s actress was embroiled in a series of scandals.""Rebecca's new movie has been delayed due to hẻr scandals."...I scrolled through my phone, behind that there were a bunch of news and personal posts related to Rebecca, my friends also posted about her, there were some people who criticized her, there were also many people who still trusted her.I carefully read each article in the major newspapers, most of the information they gave was accompanied by videos and executions that made it difficult for her to disprove.It was undeniable that Matthew's ability was very great, he was famous in the financial world, but also had a great influenc
After the phone call with Rebecca ended, I immediately called Matthew. I wanted to thank him for helping me a lot. Since I married him, he had helped me solve many problems. He had also given me warmth that I did not have before. I was really grateful to God for letting me meet him because if I didn't meet him, I would still be a poor girl who was bullied by others and suffered a lot of injustice.The curtains were drawn to the sides, and sunlight flooded the room. I also saw a few birds singing in a tree not far from the window, looking down a little was a colorful flower garden racing to bloom. The scenery was really beautiful. After stormy days would be sunny days. After tiring days, I was finally able to experience peaceful moments.I was satisfied with what I had and I really wanted to breathe in the fresh air.I was about to put down the phone in my hand to open the window when Matthew answered the phone call.I turned on the speakerphone and set the phone down on the bed, walki
"Matthew, I've seen the news about Rebecca online." I lowered my voice.At first I didn't think Matthew would put those articles online, so when I saw them, I couldn't help but be surprised."Watching the phone a lot isn't good for you, it's not good news either, you shouldn't watch much. You just need to know that I paid Rebecca back for everything she did for you. As for other things, please don't care." Matthew said softly."You are so cruel, her career is almost over, don't you remember the old love a bit?" I tried to probe Matthew.Actually, probing Matthew to see if he still had feelings for his ex or not was not at all a smart thing to do, if he really still had some feelings for her, then I was hurting. Humans were not inanimate objects, although Matthew and Rebecca had also loved each other and been together for many years, it was understandable that he couldn’t forget her right away.Even though I knew that my question was really stupid, I couldn't stop my outburst.It was s
107"Matthew, before you also wanted to marry me because you felt I was suitable." I questioned him, reminded him of the past.The past shouldn't be repeated, but since I was really weak against Matthew right now, it was very difficult for me to win against him in arguments, so I just had to remind him of the past."In my heart, you are a completely different girl, I am her boyfriend because we are compatible in background and other conditions but I come to you because we are similar in spirit. " Matthew said sweetly."You're getting better and better at talking." I commend Matthew."It's not that I now know how to coax others, but up until now, I've only coaxed the people who are important to me." Matthew said softly."So you mean that I wasn't important to you before?" I raised my voice to Matthew.Of course, he and I both knew the answer. But if he said it out loud, I would be hurt."It's no use for me to always be nice to you." Matthew was unhappy. "You forget all the times I was
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
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
