Marriage With A Evil Heart

But when I thought about it, maybe having him by my side was probably the safest moment.

Considering this, I let go of all thoughts, focusing on getting a good rest before anything else.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

That night, I slept unusually soundly and woke up naturally. When I opened my eyes, I felt a level of mental energy I had never experienced before.

Suddenly, a voice beside me said, “Awake?”

I was startled, turning my head to see Robert lying next to me, his head resting on his arm, watching me attentively. He still had that gentle expression, as if everything was calm and peaceful, as if we were back to the way things were.

At that moment, I realized that I had underestimated him before. He was indeed a good actor.

Closing my eyes for a moment, I regained my composure. I didn’t know what performance Robert was planning, but for now, I had to play along. I wanted to see what tricks he still had up his sleeve.

“Honey, what time is it?” When I spoke, my voice sounded unexpectedly hoarse, startling even myself.

He reached out to touch my face. “8 o’clock.”

Turning over to face him, I cleared my throat. “Why haven’t you gone to work?”

“I’ve been too tired recently. Taking a day off to rest, I also wanted to spend some quality time with you!” He said this with a sense of importance, his eyes fixed on my face. Then, he softly informed me, “I went to Southend these past days, visited your parents.”

Though he said it casually, it shocked me. I questioned him skeptically, “Southend? You visited my parents?”

He raised an eyebrow. “Surprised?”

Realizing I had overreacted, I nodded, going along with him. “Yes, It was indeed a bit unexpected.”

“Well, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen your parents!” He sighed and said with a touch of melancholy, “They’re doing fine. I remembered it was your mother’s birthday on April 12, and since you were unwell, I thought I should go. The trade show had just ended, so I took the opportunity to pay them a visit.”

If it weren’t for the sudden changes these past few days, I might have been moved by his actions.

Actually, when I decided to marry him, my parents strongly opposed it.

They only had me, and I was born when they were almost forty. They considered me a precious gem.

Originally, they both worked in education, later transitioning into business in the education and medical fields. In Southend, our family wasn’t extremely wealthy, but we held a respected position.

My parents had always showered me with love and never placed any pressure on me. I was their pride and joy, excelling in academics from a young age, eventually getting into the prestigious university in Newport.

Since the day I got into college, they had planned out my future for me – graduate, return to Southend, and join the education department. In their eyes, for a girl, having a stable job, being a good wife and mother was the perfect ending.

But I didn’t want to follow the conventional path. I was more interested in their business.

During my college, I secretly started working in the medical equipment business in Newport, earning my first bucket of gold. Armed with my achievements, I went home and confronted my dad, expressing my desire to establish my own company in Newport.

After careful consideration and investigation, my dad decisively registered Medikit Inc. for me in Newport. I became one of the few who owned their own company before graduating.

Fate played its tricks, and that’s when I met Robert.
