"I'll wait for you downstairs!" he told her.

It was blatantly obvious that Matthew was trying to hide something from her. It must have been something he didn't want her to know

Erica realized what Matthew was doing. Before the man could quicken his pace and leave the bedroom, she stood at the door and blocked him in the bedroom.

The couple looked at each other. The man was helpless, while the woman was slightly angry.

"Matthew, did you do something you shouldn't behind my back?"

Matthew sighed. ‘Do I look Like I've done something wrong?’ he thought to himself.

"No!" he said firmly.

“If that's so, then don't try to escape!" Immediately, Erica reached out her hand for his collar.

He tried to stop her again. But once he saw the anger in her eyes, he yielded and let her do whatever she wanted.

‘Well, she's going to find out my Last secret then, ' he thought.

Matthew stood still, giving Erica the chance to see what was on the collar of his shirt. On her tiptoe, she Looked carefully at it and was shocked by what she found.

The woman's expression quickly changed from anger to astonishment.

Holding her, Matthew leaned over and kissed her on the cheek. Then, giving it a gentle pinch, he said, “Am I free to go now? I need to head downstairs, the children are waiting."

She didn't know what to say.

Given the opportunity, Matthew tidied up his clothes and walked out of the bedroom next. Erica, on the other hand, stood there in a daze until all of a sudden, something crossed her mind.

Rushing into the closet, she opened the wardrobe where Matthew's shirts were hanging and Looked through them one by one. He had at least a few dozens of shirts in there. Most of them were white, while the rest divided themselves into shades of black, light blue, wine red, and so on.

As Erica expected, in each collar, there were two words embroidered: My

Rika.

The color of the embroidery thread matched to almost the same shade as the shirt. If she didn't Look closer to it on purpose, she wouldn't be able to read the words at all.

With her eyes filled with tears, Erica touched every one of his shirts with trembling hands. The soft cloth melted her heart...

Matthew had never been a sweet talker. In fact, he had always professed the deep Love he had for her through his actions.

When she got downstairs, she found the five men of her Life waiting for her to have breakfast. They didn't dare to start it without her.

Adkins saw her first.

"Mom is here!"

Boswell exclaimed, "Wow! Mommy is so beautiful today!"
