Trapped In A Marriage I Never Wanted
Chapter 36: Snake Woman

Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Snake Woman

As usual, Amber did all the sneaky ways to win Matthias’ heart again. Coincidentally, today she was also called by Matthias’ mother again to discuss something important. Actually, Amber knew what that important thing meant. Because Matthias’ mother really urged her to immediately become Matthias’ girlfriend before another woman took him.

Even though Amber couldn’t sleep last night because her welcoming event ended in chaos, she tried to look confident in front of her future mother-in-law because she definitely had to bring good news before her future mother-in-law was disappointed.

"Amber, how are you?"

Amber smiled kindly as she lowered her head. "I am still healthy as usual, Aunt Lucretia."

Lucretia smiled warmly, holding her future daughter-in-law’s hand. "You don’t have to lie to me. I can see that your face looks wrinkled and the bags under your eyes are obvious. If something happened, you should have told me."

Finally, Amber pulled out her trump card to get Lucretia’s full support. She took out her phone and showed the contents of the gossip that was heating up on her community forum.

"Actually, my welcoming event yesterday was a bit chaotic. Matthias attended my welcoming event, but he also invited a woman to accompany him."

Lucretia read all the hot gossip that was still being talked about until now. Her right hand was clenched tightly as she stared at her future daughter-in-law’s eyes which were still glassy.

"Then why don’t you just stop it?"

"Actually, that woman is also my friend. But I can’t do anything. There’s no way I can chase that woman away even though she’s my friend too."

Lucretia patted the sofa a little forcefully. "Why do you still consider that woman as your friend when she stabbed you in the back?! That woman should not be considered a friend. She took Matthias away from you when you were clearly the more worthy wife of Matthias."

"But it seems like I still have a lot of shortcomings that Matthias chose that woman. Especially when that woman’s dress suddenly slipped down, he clearly chose that woman over me. He didn’t care that I was openly humiliated by everyone."

With a pleading face, Lucretia held Amber’s hand. "Forgive me for failing to educate him properly. Later I will scold him because he has hurt your feelings."

"Don’t scold him, Auntie. I can’t bear to see Matthias being scolded just because of this matter."

"In fact, he deserves to be scolded because he has gone too far. Moreover, I am still traumatized by seeing him dating a woman I hate the most in my life. The way he treats this woman is the same as the woman in his past."

"But it is impossible for Matthias to treat two women the same way."

"No. He can do it because he thinks all women are the same. I just wonder why he can’t love you."

*****

While the couple was busy locking themselves up in the house. Victoria decided to cancel her date because she had to finish a lot of pending work. Moreover, all of her projects had to be shown to the client tomorrow. Even so, Matthias had no right to be angry because actually one of all the projects Victoria was working on right now was related to the T&H Real Estate project.

Of course, Matthias still supports and accompanies his wife who is busy working. He serves all his wife’s favorite snacks in large quantities and juice drinks. Matthias accompanies his wife to work in the study room, while he also finishes his work.

Victoria’s lips continued to pout because on her day off she had to finish all her work in a short time. She didn’t expect that lately many clients would want to work with her even though previously it wasn’t as busy as it is now. Although she was overwhelmed, she remained enthusiastic about working on it because it was her responsibility to complete the project on time given by the client.

"By the way, do you really have to finish all your work today?"

Victoria’s eyes were focused on the laptop screen. "What can I do, I have to finish everything so that the client is not disappointed with me."

"Then, would you like to accompany me to the living room? There is something I want to show you."

"Can we just postpone it for later?"

Matthias rolled his eyes. "You’ve been working hard for hours now. If you keep pushing yourself, you’ll get sick."

In the end, Victoria chose to give up rather than continue to be forced by her husband. "Alright, I’m starting to feel sleepy anyway."

Victoria was led by her husband to walk towards an organ displayed in the corner of the living room. Actually, she was curious whether her husband could actually play the organ or not. Right now, she was just sitting on a bench with her husband.

"Is it true that you can play the organ?"

"Actually, I can play. But I wasn’t very good at it because I didn’t like it."

"But, how did you suddenly learn to play the organ? Did you take a course?"

Matthias showed a cheerful smile. "Because the woman I love likes to hear the instrument I play."

"I wonder what instrument your woman likes."

"Just try listening."

When Matthias started playing the piano keys without looking at the sheet music, Victoria felt familiar with the instrument her husband was playing. Her eyes became increasingly teary as she heard it over and over again. Moreover, seeing the way Matthias played the piano, she felt like she had seen it many times before.

Suddenly a piece of memory crossed her mind again. This time showing a scene when a man was playing the piano with her. Moreover, the man’s posture was very similar to Matthias. However, as usual she still could not see the man’s face clearly. One clue that made her even more sure that the man was Matthias, the instrument the man played was exactly the same as the one Matthias was playing now.

Her head almost exploded remembering that piece of memory. This time she fell unconscious on Matthias’ shoulder.
