The day my family went bankrupt, my fiancée left me and married her first love. I didn't argue or make a scene. Instead, I married Sharon Tomlinson, the woman who had confessed to me when I was at my lowest. After we got married, I took care of Sharon for seven full years while she was paralyzed from the waist down. The day she finally stood up again, I accidentally overheard her speaking Aurelian with her best friend at the dinner table. "Sharon, are you really planning to spend your whole life with him? Aren't you worried you'd hurt your brother's feelings?" Sharon peeled a shrimp for our daughter, Tasha Holden, and answered unhurriedly, "What are you talking about? I know how to deal with them both. I could never bear to make Curtis sad." "Same for me. I like Uncle Curtis. He's handsome, while my dad's an ugly freak," Tasha chimed in beside them, also in Aurelian. They didn't know I spoke the language. Fine. I was sick of Sharon's undercooked pasta, anyway. I would never eat it again for the rest of my life!

Sharon's reputation collapsed overnight.She clutched her phone, staring at the videos and chat logs, and broke down in uncontrollable sobs.Before this, she had still been lying to herself.She told herself that Oliver didn't know that much, that he only heard the conversation at the dinner table.She thought she still had a chance to beg for forgiveness.Once she saw the videos and messages, she completely lost it.She finally realized something she didn't want to face: She might never be able to earn Oliver's forgiveness again.Sharon stared at the footage, collapsed to her knees, and slapped herself over and over.All she could think about was how desperate Oliver must have felt when he saw all of this.He was desperate enough to leave without a word, heartbroken enough to give up the child.Sharon no longer cared that the company was suffering massive losses because of her.There was only one thought left in her mind.She had to find Oliver and apologize to him in pers

It was so suffocating that she wanted to escape.And yet, she couldn't leave it.She was still a mother.When Oliver was around, even Tasha seemed obedient and sensible. Now, she felt like everything was working against her on purpose.Tasha cried all day, either demanding to see Oliver or refusing to go to school.Sharon asked everyone she could, pulling every string she had, trying to find Oliver.But there was nothing.All of it piled together until she felt like she was on the verge of losing her mind.She felt as if she had lost her entire world overnight.

Sharon collapsed to her knees, crying until her chest ached.Tasha's eyes were red, too. She clutched an Aurelian certificate and crouched carefully in front of her mom, hesitating for a long time before speaking."Mom… Daddy speaks Aurelian. We shouldn't talk badly about him in Aurelian anymore. While you were with Uncle Curtis these days, I even heard Daddy talking to me in Aurelian."Sharon snapped her head up.She stared at the certificate in Tasha's hands. Her sobbing cut off instantly, her pupils shrinking.She remembered.Oliver knew Aurelian. He was the first one in this house to learn it.When her legs were in constant pain, and she still had to work, Oliver taught himself Aurelian to help her handle things.Oliver took her and Tasha to Aurelia, acting as a tour guide. He was also the one who taught Tasha fluent Aurelian from the time she was little.How had she forgotten all of that?Even at the dinner table, Sharon had spoken freely in Aurelian with Laura, right in
