The news that I was pregnant quickly spread throughout the upper class. Matthew received many congratulatory phone calls from others. Those were the few times that I saw him receive a phone call from a partner or not really close friend and still smile sincerely.The Brown family was about to hold a small party to celebrate this good news. Actually, Matthew did not want to share this good news with too many people, but people in high society often organized a large and bustling party that invited many people. Sometimes the ladies organized huge parties just to celebrate the birthday of a beloved pet. If the Brown family did not celebrate a party for such an important occasion, it would cause other people to disagree.Before, Matthew and I did not hold a wedding party which attracted many people's attention, but at that time Matthew's health was not good, he had just had an accident that damaged his legs, so people easily understand why we didn’t hold a wedding party.Now, I was pregna
"You seem so confident in yourself!" Rebecca laughed mockingly at me. "Although confidence is a good thing, being a person still has to know where your place is. You and Matthew are people of two worlds, do you think you two will be happy? In the rich world, there are many people around marrying people from not very good backgrounds but at the end of their marriages all failed.You are far behind other girls who dream of becoming a rich lady, at least if those other people are not very talented. they are very beautiful, while you are nothing special." Rebecca raised her voice.She finally revealed her true nature, no longer pretending to be polite and friendly.That was what she was. And I also wanted to be myself and not have to pretend with her."Thank you for caring for me. But if you have a lot of time to care about people or things that don't relate to you, I recommend you to spend time for yourself. That would be better" I rolled my eyes. "About the relationship between me and Ma
As soon as I stepped out of the school gate, I saw Matthew's car parked in the school yard. I wanted to see him right now, so I subconsciously walked faster, and by the time I realized it, I was about to walk over to Matthew's car.I bowed my head in shame. I was about to become a mother but I still couldn't control my steps. Surely Matthew would not be satisfied. He was worried that I would fall easily if I walked fast, although the possibility of falling down was not high, but remember the first time I brought food to Matthew, I had fallen, so I thought I had to pay a lot of attention.As I expected, when I opened the door to the car, Matthew appeared with his brows furrowed tightly, showing great displeasure.I carefully got into the car. then looked at him with pitiful eyes in the hope that he wouldn't be angry anymore. Matthew's eyebrows had loosened a bit but he was still not really satisfied."Next time you have to be more careful, don't go so fast." Matthew carefully advised m
"Venn, I'm pregnant!" I sent that text to my brother and then put the phone aside. Currently, when Venn was in class, He would not call me right away to confirm this information, although normallyVenn did not study too hard and often used his phone in class time, compared to other times of the day, he still touched his phone less. I was guessing Venn wouldn't see this message right away, just as I had had time to mentally prepare to tell him everything.After much consideration, I decided to tell him anh my stepmother about my pregnancy. I couldn't hide it from them forever, compared to hearing that news from someone else, hearing it from my own mouth would make them less upset.Me and Matthew were lovers, my pregnancy problem was very normal. The hardest thing to say was to tell you that I was married.My phone kept getting notifications but the weird thing was that there weren't any texts or calls from Venn. Oddly enough, if Venn saw my message, he would immediately call me. Venn wa
After a heated intimacy, I almost forgot about Rebecca."You still haven't answered me?" I spoke up, my eyes fixed on the ceiling."Answer what?" Matthew turned to look at me, obviously forgetting my question."Rebecca." I remind him again."We don't have to talk about her. My story with her is completely in the past, don't you believe me?" Matthew answered seriously.We had conflicts many times, so this time he spoke very clearly, not giving me a chance to misunderstand."It's not that I don't trust you, it's that I don't trust Rebecca." I said. "Both you and I can see clearly that she intends to destroy the relationship between you and me. She even came to my school the other day to see me, I'm afraid she won't stop here!""She came looking for you a few days ago, why didn't you tell me at that time?" Matthew seriously questioned me."You should have informed me!" Realizing that he was exaggerating, Matthew spoke more softly."I wanted to tell you that day, but then you told me abou
When I opened my eyes, I immediately saw Matthew lying beside me. He didn't sleep, he just stared at me."Have you heard any news of my brother yet?" As soon as I woke up, my first reaction was to ask where Venn was."Don't worry, Venn is an adult, he also needs his own space. If every time he goes somewhere he has to inform his family, he will feel very claustrophobic.""But since Rebecca went to see him, I couldn't help but worry." I lowered my voice.Matthew brushed a lock of hair that covered my face to one side. He said softly. "He's at the bar. My people are still there so you can rest assured.""I want to go see Venn." I quickly sat up. I really wanted to see him. If I couldn't see him now, I couldn't rest assured."The bar is not the right place for a pregnant woman like you." Matthew was not satisfied with my request. Of course, he didn't want me to go to that place."I didn't go to the Bar to play, I came to see Venn. You also come with me, we have bodyguards, so I'll be fin
All memories from small to large kept flooding back, every word I said to Venn was a smoldering pain in my heart that I never wanted to share with anyone. I was able to stay calm at first, but as time went on, my voice became more choked up."Growing up in the same family but you have a mother and I don't, you don't have to worry about money but I do. You know how much I admire you. If you want to blame someone for something, take a good look at yourself before blaming others."Matthew looked at me with complicated eyes. One of his arms wrapped around my waist as if he wanted to protect me.I gently placed one of my hands on Matthew's arm around my waist, telling him I was okay.The past couldn't be returned, I would not dwell in it forever. I was glad that I was not alone now, I had Matthew and my baby by my side. I would cherish them, cherish the happy moments that I always wished for before.When people look to the past, people would be less sad. The feelings that used to be pain
After Venn calmed down, I was much more relieved. Now I just needed to tell my stepmother about the relationship between me and Matthew. There was nothing for me to worry about on my stepmother's side. Notifying my stepmother that I was married just showed my duty and self-respect to her. She would also just listen to the story without reacting, that was what I expected.So I decided that when I brought Venn home, I would take the opportunity to inform her that I was married.Anyway, my stepmother was also a very easy person to talk to, she only had obligations to me so of course she wouldn't feel disappointed when I quietly got married without telling her.The time Matthew and I talked to Matthew was really fast, my stepmother just asked a few random things related to our relationship. In fact, she didn't care about me so much that she had to ask if we really loved each other. What she really cared about was whether she was perceived by others as a stepmother who didn't care about her
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
