I used the fastest speed I could to get out of school. When I met the driver at the appointed place,I nodded slightly to him and sat in the car. At that time, I didn't know that I was always smiling unconsciously."What makes you so happy about today? Seeing you laughing and jumping all over the place from just now until now, I'm also happy." Before starting the car, the driver spoke up.Normally, the driver and I didn't talk to each other, only when there was an important thing to inform me, he only spoke up.The smile on my lips froze while hearing him say that, Was I expressing my emotions so clearly on my face and through my act?I carefully asked the driver again, "Did I jump all the way from school to here?" Why did he see me with a strange expression when I didn't notice it myself?I carefully recalled my actions earlier, obviously I didn't run and jump, why did the driver see that, maybe the driver was dizzy?The driver laughed loudly. "You didn't jump, I exaggerated a bit, bu
The front desk in Brown Group was different, just looking at it, people could tell it belonged to a different level. Standing at the front desk were the beautiful and professional receptionists.I slowly walked to the front desk, because it was not lunch time, only half of the receptionists were on duty. When I just walked in, I was about to ask the front desk how I could get to the general manager's room, but before I could open my mouth, a receptionist recognized me."Are you here to find the general manager?" She politely bowed her head and then smiled sweetly at me.I saw that she had just put the phone down not long ago, maybe Matthew had called to inform her.I nodded. "That's right, I don't know which elevator I have to take to get there."The receptionist came out of the reception, talking as she walked. "Let me show you the way."So I followed the reception to an elevator not far away, maybe it was a dedicated elevator for the general manager because the other elevators had p
Suddenly remembering Matthew's legs, I immediately panicked, I immediately asked him to sit down and asked him if he was okay?Matthew shook his head, but I still didn't believe it very much. He could walk short distances on his own without any assistance, but at a very slow pace.Suddenly, he walked so fast and ran to help me, making me very scared. He assured me many times that he was okay, then I was temporarily reassured.I sat on the sofa, and Matthew helped me unpack the lunch box and set out the dishes."Does today's food suit your taste?" I curled my lips into a smile."It looks delicious." Matthew nodded slightly."Of course. These dishes are not only the chef's effort, but also your effort." I proudly braged."What work do I have?" Surprise was evident on his face."I..." I was a little hesitant. "I mean the chef does it really well but if I don't bring it here for you, you can't eat it either, right?""Right." Matthew sighed. "Your effort is great. But if you say that you e
"Let's just eat." I urged Matthew. Now it was time for lunch. The food was already on the table, we had no reason to hesitate.Today's dishes were very simple, not too much, just enough for the two of us to eat. Neither Matthew nor I liked wasting food."Lunch was really nice, it looked delicious." Matthew looked at the dishes on the table once and gave a compliment.Of course it was delicious, the chef Matthew hired was a very famous chef, he had worked as a chef in five-star hotels and wealthy families. He had a wealth of experience, so he could make even those who were very picky about eating like Matthew also praised.I heard his salary was very high but the food he made was also amazing, so he totally deserved his salary.We had beef and salad, both of which I liked to eat. I thought that I was the one who brought the rice, so I had the right to choose the food according to my taste. These were very ordinary dishes, but the dish that the chef came out with had a very unique taste
When Matthew and I still hadn't finished our meal, the company's employees had already gone back to work. They also seemed to have noticed something unusual in their boss's room, but no one dared to look this way.Still, I knew their attention was always on me and Matthew. The feeling of being noticed by others was unfamiliar to me, and subconsciously my actions were more rigid."Have you finished your meal yet?" I asked Matthew in a low voice. Although I knew people outside couldn't hear what we were saying to each other, I subconsciously forced myself to speak as quietly as possible. The main purpose was to make myself feel secure."Can't you see I'm still eating?" Matthew looked up at me."Don't just sit there and watch me eat, you haven't eaten much, you have to eat more or you'll get thinner and thinner." Matthew said and popped a piece of salad into my mouth."I'm done eating." I put my hand on my stomach to prove what I said to Matthew. "Look, my stomach is full, if I eat anymo
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,
