Sophia's POV I don't think I'm ready to be engaged. "Hm, I do intend to marry you, Sophia." My mother also answered because maybe she knew that I was running out of words. "It's enough. I think I really appreciate your good intentions towards Sophia. But I don't think Sophia is ready for that. So maybe you just have a relationship so you can get to know each other. And you can play at our house." “Yes, thank you, ma'am. I'm very happy to meet you. I will schedule a visit to your house." I just ate a little there. Because I feel like I don't know what to do. Because the conversation between us seemed quite heavy so it made me feel numb. If Jeremy didn't talk about marriage, of course I would be able to relax too. But for some reason, Jeremy said about marriage at the beginning of his meeting with my mother. We weren't there for long because I couldn't stand just talking to my mother alone. Just getting into the car I asked my mother. “How is it, ma'am?” "Calm down
Bertrand's POV Patricia then called her mother and asked what she wanted to eat at home, coincidentally she was at a restaurant. I just took note of what Megan said. Orders from my wife and also my other children at home. I feel happy that I can make them happy. I hope everything will be like this forever. After finishing, I took them home. When they got home, Patricia distributed the food she had bought earlier. Megan approached me. "How was it at their school?" "Thank God their grades are good. Moreover, Leo also got very satisfying grades. He is similar to Sophia who likes mathematics." "In that case, thank God. Sophia also started to feel confused. Indirectly, she was proposed to by her classmate who was actually already in master's degree but chose to become a graduate again because of his educational interests." I frowned. "Oh yes? Who is him?” “He is Sophia's classmate. He lives in a rental house. He said from out of town." I nodded my head. “Oh, just
Megan's POV That's why I teach my children to be able to pursue education and I will also facilitate them until they can achieve their dreams. "You have got up?" I just realized that Bertrand had opened his eyes. I smile. "Yeah, I was thinking so far that I didn't realize you were awake." “What are you thinking?” Bertrand brushed my hair that was touching my face. We were still both under the blanket. We were both completely naked but we had fun doing it. Because intimacy needs to be maintained not only when we are newlyweds. After marriage, the husband and wife always look intimate. On all occasions, new couples will shower all their affection on each other. As marriage ages, many couples begin to show less affection. This can be caused by increasing work or the presence of a baby who takes up all your busyness and attention. If this is the case, your partner may feel that they are not cared for and this can cause the relationship between husband and wife to become s
Megan's POV The contents of the letter were that I was invited as a permanent lecturer there. Because my grades are quite good and I have sufficient experience in my field. Even though I studied biology, I used to carry out research on bacteria and find solutions to diseases. I was also invited to work at a well-known factory with a salary that was not small. But I refused on the grounds that I already had a business and I couldn't stay. But the offer to become a permanent lecturer made me want to take this job offer. Just what about Isabella? I promised her I would help take care of her baby. Moreover, if I became a lecturer, of course I would spend more time on campus and less time with my family. How about this? I'm really confused. “What's wrong with you, ma'am? What package was that?" Isabella read the letter I received herself. “Wow, this is great, ma'am. You must accept this job offer. I support you to take this job. This is noble work.” Seeing Isabella's f
Bertrand's POV I was surprised by the call from Sophia. "What's wrong, Sophia?" "We had an accident, dad." “Huh? Yes, I'll go there now." I took a deep breath. Sophia's words were clear, but why did she ask me to go to the hospital immediately even though she also had an accident? I left them because Megan said she wanted to take the bus when she went home. But this was still four hours ago I left them but they had already had an accident. I asked Evan to immediately take me to the hospital. My feelings of confusion made me unable to stay calm while traveling. It's better if Evan drives the car. After two hours I finally arrived at the hospital. I met Sophia whose head and hands were bandaged but she could walk. “Dad.” Sophia's eyes filled with tears. "Where's your mother?" I asked hopefully if Megan would be okay. "Mom, Mom, the doctor declared her in a coma, Dad." Sophia immediately burst into tears. She hugged me. I also trembled when I heard my daughter's
Megan's POV I opened my eyes. I was in my room. “Are you awake, Megan?” My mother brought a tray of milk. "Yes, ma'am. Did you bring milk for me?” "Yes, but you get up and go to the bathroom first before you can drink this milk." I smile. "Yes, ma'am." After washing my face I went back to the room and drank warm milk from my mother. "Dad, where are you, mom?" "Of course your father has already left for work." "I forget." “You just exist, Megan. Yes, now you are ready for school!" I immediately showered and got ready for school. My school is very close to my house so I only need to walk to school. On the way to school I met Selina. She is my friend at school. Her face is oval and has curly hair. We headed to elementary school where we were still in fifth grade. Selina also asked "Megan, why are you here?" "Yes, I want to go to school. Why are you strange?" “You shouldn't be here, Megan.” "What's wrong with you? Don't be so unclear. "We better get to schoo
Megan's POV Today I wore new clothes that my mother gave me recently at the market. Wow, I feel very happy to be able to wear these new clothes. I can't stop standing in front of the mirror in my room because the peach color suits me. “Megan, are you ready?” My mother came into my room. "Yes, ma'am. Am I suitable for wearing these clothes?” “Of course you are very beautiful. Come on, your father is waiting for you!" I smiled broadly. "Okay ma'am." Me, my mother and my father went to a place that I didn't know about because it was quite far from my house. Maybe about an hour's journey. Now I have arrived in front of a fairly large restaurant. “Are we coming here, Dad?” "Yes, of course. You can eat whatever you want here.” “Hooray.” I immediately grabbed my mother's hand to go into the restaurant. There are quite a lot of people here too. There are so many food choices that it makes me confused about what I want to eat. "What are we going to buy, ma'am?" Becaus
Bertrand's POV Twice every year, I regularly receive emails about stocks. This is one of four stock issuers that I own, whose dividends I am targeting. So, because I own four different stocks, I receive emails like this seven times a year, because one of the companies I chose only pays dividends once a year. I started this investment recently, in 2020. The reason we just started it that year was because it was only that year that we had cold money or were unemployed. Before that, it was a waste of money to have cold money, I didn't even have any savings for an emergency fund because the company owned by the Hardwin family had collapsed and I was the one who had to cover it all. The main point of investment is that you must use cold money. What is cold money? Cold money means money that will not be used or idle for a certain period of time. So daily needs such as children's pocket money, shopping money, petrol money, and so on are not included in cold money. Savings that y
