Lightning flashed in front of her eyes, and the howling of ferocious beasts sounded in her ears. She saw clearly the harmless plant in an instant, which was what Darren was looking for.She thought of the open notebook, the brief dialogue in the lonely hall, the courteous kiss and one dance after another in the Palace of Mirrors, and finally the forest that Norway would never leave.

She opened her eyes suddenly, the nightmare was so real.Edwin pulled the quilt tightly and turned his head to look. Matthew was holding her tightly and sleeping soundly, breathing on her neck, this might be the snort of the beast in her dream just now.

Edwin pulled away from his embrace lightly, and came to Blaise's room in his clothes.He was still in a deep sleep, with a puddle of saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth, and his two small hands clenched into fists in front of his chest.She reached out and took his fist, crying silently.

She really shouldn't have stepped into another marriage before she got out of it. There is no doubt that she overestimated herself.

Maybe she should accept Uriah's offer.After all, the difficulty she faces is all about money, and Uriah is clearly capable of solving this problem. At most, she just needs to get a few more eyes from Keira-so, has she made the right decision?

Edwin pulls some doubts.

She walked into her study and took out the souvenir book she had secretly brought.It was the first time she had opened it since her marriage to Matthew.Edwin La stroked the gold-plated "A&D" on the cowhide cover. After she fell in love with Darren, she began to include their love story and a few photos, but she didn't know that this story would end so quickly.

"Edwina?" Matthew appeared by the door at some point.

"Did I wake you up?" She didn't have time to hide the obvious sadness on her face.

"What are you looking at?" He didn't respond to her question, his eyes full of doubts.

She simply raised the album and let Matthew see the striking letters on the cover: "I'm looking at the group photo of our family in the past." Thanks to Merlin, the initials of "Darren" and "Davis" are both D, she She said panicked without changing her face, "Uriah will be leaving soon after Christmas, and we don't know when we will meet next time." She no longer concealed her sad expression, "Look, our family The world is on its own.”

"I'm sorry," Matthew was about to come over, "I didn't know you were missing your parents."

"Although I am not their biological daughter, they have always been very kind to me." She calmly put the album back on the table, "Do you know what they expected most from me after my sister ran away from home?"

Matthew showed a thoughtful expression.

She watched him put on a perfect and playful smile: "Marry someone who treats me very well." Edwin pulled towards him and kissed Matthew on the tip of his nose, "I found .”

No one can refuse the beauty's embrace, even Matthew who has doubts in his heart.He hugged Edwina back, and was greatly shocked by her straightforward confession: "I will always be good to you."

"I believe in you." She changed the topic, "Will you accompany me back to Davis's house for dinner tomorrow?"

"it is good."

"By the way," she asked casually, "you don't have the same concerns as Kayla, do you?"

"What—oh! Of course not." Matthew replied immediately, "Uriah and I have been friends for so many years, how could I have such strange thoughts."

"That's good." Edwin felt relieved, "He is my brother, and this will never change."

She knew very well that Matthew still cared about her past with Darren in his heart, and that was all. He should not be so stubborn that he insisted on competing with the dead.But if he suspects her relationship with Uriah too, that's going to be a problem... It's not a good thing to have an overly suspicious husband.

The next day they couldn't go to Davis's for dinner because of an unexpected visitor in the afternoon:

Matthew's mother.

When she sat down on the sofa and looked directly at Edwina with burning eyes, she suddenly knew something was wrong.

Sure enough, the other party brought up a very difficult topic: "When are you going to have children?"

"Mom," Matthew smiled, "this kind of thing has to go with the flow."

"I admire your determination to give birth to a posthumous child." Matthew's mother pierced her eyes like a sword, "You must marry him more or less because you want to provide your child with a better environment for growth. As a mother, I can understand that. But I don't want my son to be stupid and take advantage of it."

Edwina was grateful that she didn't sound too harsh: "I understand what you mean. But we just got married, and I want to take a break—"

"How long did you rest?" After the other party interrupted her, he asked the second difficult question, "Do you still think of yourself as Mrs. Zabini in your heart?"

She was at a loss for words.Matthew’s mother sneered: “otherwise why do you still keep his last name?”

"I explained the reason to Matthew before we got married." She covered Matthew's hand, but was horrified to find that he didn't respond. "I was thinking about my son."

"Then shouldn't you also think about my son and your current husband?"

Edwin looked sideways at Matthew, but he still didn't make eye contact with her.

"I warned you a long time ago, Matthew." The other party said with a lofty attitude that overwhelmed everything. "Beauty doesn't mean everything. It's a pity that you were stunned at that time."

It seemed that the crux that existed before their marriage was on the verge of collapse.

The visitor who lifted the last veil concluded his speech with one sentence: "I hope you have Matthew in your heart instead of your dead husband."
