Matthew glanced at me then back at the secretary and asked. "What did she come to see me for?" His tone was devoid of any emotion, like the person who came looking for him was a normal person rather than his ex-girlfriend."She wants to talk with you about the new collaboration project of Brown and AS company." The employee answered very seriously."OK." Matthew rolled his eyes. "You should go out first and tell her to wait for me in the big meeting room, I'll be there in five minutes." Matthew said nonchalantly."I got it." Then she left, not forgetting to close the door.Before leaving, she looked at me once and bowed slightly. I smiled as if greeting her.It wasn't difficult for her to guess that I was Matthew's wife, but she didn't show any curiosity or look at me inquiringly, but just focused on announcing the work to Matthew. When she heard what Matthew told her, she quietly walked out of his office and did what Matthew just asked her.Rebecca's appearance in Matthew's company m
63I found myself more alone than at any other time in my life when I was sitting alone in Matthew's officeMatthew was really too perfect, his perfection made a person used to confidence like me become a person with low self-esteem and miscellaneous worries.For me before, just having a stable life and not having to worry about money was fine, but now I wanted more. I wished I had enough talent, enough accomplishment to hold my head high when I stood with Matthew.Since Rebeca appeared, I hadn't seen her much, but I thought about her a lot. Whenever I accidentally heard someone mention her, my heart ached. At that time, I was very confused, very scared. Although I knew that the core issue affecting our relationship was not Rebecca but the disparity and mistrust between me and Matthew, yet I still couldn't help but worry every time I thought of her.I knew I should sit still in Matthew's office, but in my mind, the scenery that Rebecca and Matthew were always together, happily discuss
Matthew called and texted me so much but I didn't pick up his phone call and I also had to text him to reply."I'm fine, let's talk more tonight and now give me a little more time. Don't bother me, please focus on working."After that text message had been sent, I decisively turned off the phone, not giving Matthew the opportunity to call or text me anymore.I knew my actions were wrong. It was clear that Matthew and Rebecca were just talking about cooperation, but I reacted like they were about to get back together and hurt me deeply. I knew I was overreacting but I couldn't control myself.In the end, I was worried because I loved Matthew, but I found myself unworthy of that love. From the moment Matthew and I signed the marriage contract, I didn't deserve to be in love.I wandered on the main road, surrounded by heavy traffic. All passers-by rushed with their plans, only I didn't know where to go.The place I wanted to return the most was the place I dared not return. Up until now,
Matthew hugged me tightly then kissed me deeply, his kiss seemed to take all my breath away, making me focus only on him and his sweetness and intensity that left me no time to think of anything else.Matthew's kiss made me dizzy, although he used to love to kiss me, he often gave me passionate kisses, but he had never kissed me so strongly like that. When Matthew finished the kiss, I quickly took a few deep breaths to regain my composure."Let's go back home." Matthew took my hand, his voice so sweet.I hesitated for a moment, then stammered. "Aren't you going back to the company?"It was still very early, I was sure he still had a lot of work to do.Thinking about that, I subconsciously lowered my head. It was me who delayed Matthew's work. I couldn't help you, on the contrary, cause a lot of trouble."Do you think I'm still in the mood to handle the company's business?" Matthew rolled his eyes.I was silent and dared not speak.Matthew was going to go but I was still standing still
Matthew kissed me again, his hand gently caressing my body making my heart beat faster. I felt a butterfly running in my stomach."Matthew!" I called out his name, my voice even quieter than a whisper.Matthew's extremely intimate action made my whole body tremble, my limbs were powerless, I could only hold Matthew's body to not fall."Matthew!" I continued to moan involuntarily, I didn't know why I called his name.Because I wanted him to be a little more gentle?Not really!Or I wanted him to be more intense.Of course not! Matthew was already too intense, if he was more intense Iwas afraid I couldn't stand it.Matthew didn't answer me but concentrated on kissing me deeply.After giving me a deep kiss, Matthew temporarily left my lips, caressing my earlobes.After teasing my ears enough, he wanted to kiss me again but I immediately raised my hand to push his mouth away a little."Matthew, I can't take it anymore, let me breathe for a moment."Matthew curled his lips. "I just started
After that day, Matthew forced me to bring him lunch every day. I was very happy to have meals with Matthew every day, but every time I saw employees in his company, especially the secretary that I met that day, I felt very shy. I just wanted to find a big hole in the floor and get in there so you didn't have to face those people anymore.That day, when I left here in a panic, my mind was a bit deceitful, but I still knew a lot of people turned to look at my footsteps with surprised, curious eyes. I suddenly left while Matthew's ex-girlfriend came to his company, everyone understood the reason. There was a little bit of curiosity in every human being, and they certainly wanted to know what my relationship with Matthew was like.The first time I went to Brown Corporation, I ran into your ex-girlfriend. It was a very unfortunate thing, I didn't want such an awkward situation to happen again, but with the resolute attitude of Matthew, I could only listen to him.These days, I always felt
Matthew determined the perfect time to wake me up. The time from when I got up to when I started taking the test was enough for me to prepare well, and get to school fifteen minutes early.Matthew had a very important meeting in the morning, so he didn't take me to school. Before leaving, he did not forget to kiss me goodbye.I had determined that this test could not be as good as the goal I set, so I didn't put too much pressure on it, but just tried to keep my mind as comfortable as possible so that I didn't make silly mistakes.In the schoolyard today was especially busy, because it was an exam, so the students arrived early. There were even students who didn't have an exam today but still came to school to review. The school campus was a good environment to study. Before that, I also tried going to the school to review, the effect was also very good. The only bad thing was that too many students chose the school campus as a place to review, so I couldn't choose the best location,
The news of the pregnancy hit me like a thunderbolt, making me unable to calm down, although from the beginning I and Matthew had discussed the issue of having a baby very clearly. We definitely had to have a baby, it was my duty. We were in agreement from the start, but I was never quite ready to be a mother.Of course I had no right to want or not to have children. Although I was very happy that Matthew and I were about to welcome a new life together, my anxiety was much greater than joy and happiness.At first, I thought very simply when I agreed to sign a marriage contract with Matthew, I thought that even though I would not be with my baby in the future, Matthew and the Brown family would take good care of him and give him a good life. he would receive materially adequate and a good education, which I always wanted to have. I originally thought that he would live well without me, but when I felt the child coming into this world, I realized how selfish and cruel I had been.I coul
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
