"I heard there's going to be a party at the mansion tonight to introduce you to everyone?" Alden said coldly.He sat cross-legged on the sofa, one hand put on his body, the other hand put on the sofa, he leaned back slightly. His demeanor was so arbitrary, I heard a hint of mockery in his voice. Maybe this time he came home to see me being embarrassed."I thought you'd come back tonight." I said while turning back to look at him.“Anyway, today is a very important day, I also want to go home to prepare in advance.” Alden curled his lips into a smile.I hated this smile of his."Sorry, I can’t talk with you, I need to go up to your room to rest!" I looked at him and said nonchalantly.As I was about to walk away, he spoke again, forcing me to stop.“Rebecca came today too, you know?”I walked closer to him. “Is that so? Mom gave me the guest list but I just looked over it, I don't know who they are anyway. Matthew also told her not to worry, the first time I participate in activities l
Returning to my room, I began to regret a little. At first I was just going to scare Alden for a while so that he wouldn't cause trouble for me later, but I was really afraid I would cause trouble.After all, Alden was not an ordinary person, he was born in a family with such a super powerful family, so he might have never been bullied by anyone. I just made him lose face, I was just afraid that he would hate me even more and he would find a way to take revenge on me.I thought Matthew hired me to be his wife, I shouldn't have caused trouble for him. On the other hand, I thought that if I had played the role of Matthew's wife, I should act like it, in my personality, if I was really Matthew's wife and was protected by him, there was no reason for me to afraid of this little brother, I thought I could even show a more resolute attitude.I sighed, what a headache!No matter how much I thought about it, it didn't change the fact that I took Alden's check and threatened him to make Matthe
Suddenly I remembered what had happened between me and Alden before, I hesitated for a moment and then asked Matthew softly, "There's something I forgot to tell you, that was about what had happened in the morning between me and Alden, I don't know if you already knew or not?"Matthew smiled, opening his eyes to look at me. “You are braver than I thought!”So he already knew it? From the moment he entered the room until now, he hadn't mentioned it, I thought I didn't know. But the truth was he already knew it."Did I cause trouble for you?" I lowered my head slightly and spoke in a low voice.In fact, I wanted to ask if I was causing trouble for myself. Anyway Alden respected and feared Matthew very much. He would not dare to cause trouble to Matthew. If he felt uncomfortable about my behavior and my actions, he would only make everything difficult for me, not Matthew.“What do you think?” Matthew said nonchalantly.“I think you are Alden's brother, the reason Alden doesn't like me is
I asked a maid to go to Matthew's mansion to help him get his wheelchair and then continued massaging his legs. While I was massaging for Matthew, he would sometimes tease me or kiss me when I wasn't paying attention, but he didn't do anything too much, even if he wanted to, I wouldn't agree, his feet legs like that, of course I couldn't let him do anything too much.The wheelchair was brought in very quickly. At this point, we just went down to the house to have lunch. Like before, Matthew was in a wheelchair and I went behind to help him push the wheelchair. Mr. and Mrs. Brown and Alden had both eaten, so in such a large dining room, just me and Matthew, it felt very much like when I was at Matthew's mansion. I hadn't been back there for just more than a day, but I was starting to miss that place.After we finished eating, we began to choose our costumes for the evening party. Initially, Matthew planned to call a stylist to help us choose our clothes, but in the end we decided to he
I helped Matthew change his suit first then I changed into the dress Matthew had chosen for me. Indeed, I had a bit of regret because today Matthew had to meet everyone in a wheelchair. It had been a long time since he appeared at a party. I thought that this time he could appear in front of everyone without the wheelchair so that those who previously thought he would be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life had to keep their eyes open to look at him, unfortunately Matthew's leg suddenly deteriorated.But that was not too important, the most important thing was that Matthew's leg could heal quickly.While I was still changing, a maid came up to call Matthew and me downstairs. At that moment I immediately took Matthew's hand, bringing his watch close to my face so I could see the watch face clearly. It was almost five o'clock in the afternoon. I let out a sigh, time passed so quickly. Matthew and I still hadn't done anything, and the whole afternoon had passed.I glared angrily at M
Although Matthew had assured me that there was no problem if I was late to the party tonight or even appeared there just for a moment. But I still decided to go downstairs early.After pushing Matthew aside, I adjusted my clothes neatly, not forgetting to glance at him with the purpose of warning him not to tease me again or do something inappropriate right now.This time, Matthew obediently listened to me. Anyway, he had already achieved the benefits he wanted, of course he wouldn't do too much.When I pushed his wheelchair out of our room, he was extremely happy. I myself couldn't help but smile.I really enjoyed being with Matthew.When we went downstairs, there were only a few maids in the house. Maybe everyone was at the party in the backyard.Seeing me, the maid hurriedly said, "Everyone is waiting for you two.""I knew. I'll be there soon." I answered her and pushed Matthew's wheelchair out into the back garden. In the distance, I heard the bustling laughter.As we walked close
My conversation with Rebecca ended when Mrs. Brown saw us. She quickly approached us and then took us to the center of the party. Of course Rebecca was left behind, Mrs. Brown didn't even see her."Hello everyone, today our family invites you here because we want to introduce to you a very important person, who is also a new member of our family." Mrs. Brown said loudly.Mrs. Brown looked over at me. "Laura, Say hello to everyone.""Hello everyone, I’m Laura, I'm Matthew's wife, I'm also a new member in the Brown family, if I've done something wrong, I hope everyone can tell me more so I can improve myself, and do a good role as Matthew's wife." I briefly introduced myself, saying absolutely nothing about my family.I guessed they all knew my situation well enough to not need any further introduction. Except for those who didn't like me and weren't afraid to offend Matthew like Rebecca, I didn't think anyone would ask about my background."Laura is still young so she needs everyone's
Early in the morning, I woke up very early, even before Matthew woke up, I was really afraid that he would not wake me up but come alone to the company. Although I told Matthew last night that I wanted to come back early with him. Last night I was tossing and turning all night and couldn't sleep, so I was afraid that Matthew wouldn’t wake me up because he wanted me to get enough sleep.When Matthew woke up and saw me, he was a little surprised."Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Matthew frowned.Last night, Matthew was a little unhappy when I didn't go to bed early, but because I was tossing and turning and still couldn't sleep, he just had to ignore me. But today I woke up so early, Matthew was not satisfied."Yesterday you promised to wake me up, but now you are angry just because I can get up early without your help?" I bit my lip. "Fortunately, I guessed what you thought, If I didn’t get up early, I would have been left here alone." I said angrily."I only want the best for yo
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
