My relationship with Matthew still was in a state of sometimes hot and sometimes cold. Sometimes he was extremely considerate and caring for me but sometimes he was cold to me.The new school year was coming, so I needed to prepare well for studying and didn’t have time to care about our relationship.Matthew's leg recovered very well, he began to be able to walk a small distance on crutches. His legs were better but his personality became worse. There were times when he said things and acted differently than before, and I didn't understand why.The news that Matthew's leg was getting better quickly reached the Browns family, Mr. and Mrs. Brown was overjoyed. Mrs. Brown often told me and Matthew to visit them and Matthew often refused.Mr. and Mrs. Brown was so used to Matthew's characteris that once he didn't want to do something, no one could force him, so they didn't have much hope. Because Matthew refused to visit them, Mrs. Brown stopped talking to him but looked for me. She call
In the morning, when I got out of bed, Matthew was still sleeping. I didn't wake Matthew up, but let him continue to sleep. These days, the company had a lot of work, he still had to practice a lot, maybe he was also extremely tired.The curtains on the window were closed so no sunlight could get in, the room was very dark, I woke up but didn't pull the curtain and I didn't turn on the light.Because of his busy schedule, Matthew always had to get up early, except for the first two days when I was just married to him. Almost every day, he woke up earlier than me, so being able to see him sleeping was not easy.Looking at him when he slept, he didn't seem arrogant like when he woke up, his face was much more peaceful and even more handsome than normal.Today I would have to go shopping for clothes, books and some essentials for the new school year.I lay blankly on the bed, thinking about going to school, I got a little excited. College was my dream and also an opportunity for me to ha
The fact that Matthew suddenly kissed me on the forehead made me very embarrassed. When he and I had breakfast together, I was too shy to look at his face.While eating, I was thinking a lot. Actually, Matthew's words were very true. Moreover, if I couldn't control myself, even if Matthew didn't take the initiative to have intimate actions with me, I could still fall in love with him as usual.Assuming that I would really love Matthew because of his kind actions and gentle gestures towards me, when I and Matthew get divorced, I would be forced to forget about him. Compared to me having to remind myself every minute not to fall in love with him while he was still intimate with me, it was much easier for me to forget someone who belonged to the past in the future.Thinking like that, my mood was also happier. There were many things that were difficult to prevent or the effort to prevent it was more than the effort to deal with the consequences, so just let it happen.If I finally fell i
Matthew wore a bright red suit but still retained his masculinity, handsomeness, confidence and calmness which made me extremely, extremely unhappy.Why couldn’t wearing such a red suit reduce his manliness? Why was God so unfair, there were people who were both handsome, talented and had a lot of money. While other people had nothing."Am I handsome?" Matthew asked arrogantly, it seemed in his heart he already knew how I would answer yes.I certainly wouldn't give him an answer that would satisfy him."It's normal, but more handsome than you used to be!" I blinked my eyes.I approached him, bent down to help him adjust and tie a little.“Much nicer!” I pleasantly said.It looked like I was not too bad at choosing clothes at this time. The truth was that I wanted to make him less handsome, but it seemed I did not achieve my goal."Let's go!" I said, then went behind Matthew, pushing his wheelchair.The car was already waiting outside the door, and Matthew was also waiting there.“Shal
The talk time between me and Jack was too short, I had just met him, only had time to say hello and before I could ask for his contact method, I was prevented by Matthew. Jack was a very famous person at my school. I had a lot of things to learn from him, but such a good opportunity was missed like that.I couldn't be like Matthew, just directly going out of the bookstore with a very cold face and not saying goodbye. Before leaving Jack's bookstore, I turned around and waved goodbye to him.Matthew was Jack's best friend, he might be used to his behavior but I was not close to Jack, I had to leave a good impression on him, maybe it would benefit me in the future. Relationships were also good resources. Having good relationships could help me have many benefits in the future, so if I got to know someone, I would definitely leave a good impression on them.Jack smiled and waved at me as he saw me out of the store, then he continued to be busy with arranging his books."You're so rude, a
Brian took me and Matthew to a store on the fifth floor of the mall. Outside the store there was a sign with the words “Young and Beauty”, each letter in that sign had a different color, changing from red to purple, like a rainbow.Most of the clothes displayed in Young and Beauty were young and dynamic, very suitable for students. I knew this brand. When I was in high school, my classmates also used to wear this brand's clothes. Items of Young and Beauty from clothes, shoes, bags to accessories were brightly colored, clearly expressing the personality of customers.The target customer of this brand was students. They did very well as every student knew this brand and most of the students had at least one item from this brand in their wardrobes. Of course, I was not among those students.Before, because I didn't have much money, I didn't buy things at Young and Beauty. But in fact I didn't like these items of this brand very much. I prefered a gentle style to an active style.Of cours
On the way back to the mansion, the atmosphere in the car was extremely stuffy, Matthew silently looked out the window, his eyes were very cold. Neither Brian nor I said anything. We were both afraid of being the object of Matthew's anger.The maids in the mansion once told me that when Matthew hadn't had an accident, Rebecca was extremely good to him. No matter how busy he was, even if he could only return once a few months, she would still love him and be willing to wait for him. Rebecca often brought her homemade food to Matthew. They ate together, the atmosphere was very cozy then.When she went to Matthew's mansion, she would do everything on her own, from cooking, arranging clothes, cleaning the house to trimming plants in the garden. The maids were very fond of her because she was extremely gentle and friendly, never pretending to be the master and made everything difficult for them. On the contrary, when they made a mistake, Rebecca even said nice things about them in front of
If Matthew and his ex were back together then he would still have to pay me the amount of money written in the contract but I did not have to perform any obligations to him.Then I would be the one who benefits the most, but somehow I couldn't be happy. Making money was hard, making money by signing a marriage contract looked easy, but it was actually a lot harder than making money by the normal way.After coming home Matthew and Brian went into Matthew's office and I stood outside, I didn't wander around, just stood there waiting. I wasn't waiting for Matthew but I was waiting for Brian, I wanted to know what he thought about Matthew and his ex.About five minutes later Brian came out. I immediately went in front of Brian, stopping him."I want to know about Matthew and his ex-girlfriend?" I asked Brian directly."You shouldn't ask about that." Brian sighed. "It's a matter of the past that won't affect your contract.""Really?" I said skeptically. “Looking at Matthew's attitude, I do
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
