He didn't buy a house and pick up her mother in the countryside until the second year after starting her own company.

Charles said, "My mother was vulgar, but you grew up in a wealthy family. I didn't want you to be bothered by the contradictions. When I make some money, I'll buy a house for my mom so that she won't affect our lives."

Charles was such a good partner. But he had an affair under my nose and even wanted to kill me.

I didn't want to go back and face them, so I stayed at my parents' house overnight and didn't go back with him until the next evening.

As soon as I got out of the car, Melanie rushed over and gave me a big hug, saying with a pouting smile, "Vanessa, give me a hug."

I pretended to be surprised and asked, "When did you arrive?"

Melanie hooked her arm with mine, and we walked into the house together. She glanced at Charles imperceptibly and said in a sweet voice, "My honey brought me here yesterday afternoon."

"Where's the baby? Let me hold him."

Melanie took the child from Mary and pressed her face against the baby's, obviously showing her maternal love.

"Melanie, aren't you worried about putting your son in your hometown?"
