Be a wife After Five Years Apart 25. A letter from whom?
That afternoon, the Auckland sky was covered in clouds. It wasn't hot, but it wasn't cloudy either. A natural phenomenon that seemed to laugh at the uncertainty Jonathan felt. Parakeets flew back and forth as if dancing in Jonathan's turmoil.Jonathan was standing in his front yard with his eyes gazing up at the sky. His hands were tucked into his pants pockets. Half a year had passed without a single word from Amelie.The same question popped up every day, every week, and also at the turn of the month. With each passing month, Jonathan would ask himself whether Amelie was still holding on to the fruit of their love and find out what stage of development the fetus was in with each passing month. According to his calculations, Amelie should have given birth this month.Jonathan took a deep breath as he thought of all the bad things Amelie could do. She might choose to abort the pregnancy. Jo realized that struggling to conceive and raise a child alone was not an easy matter."Excuse me
Be a wife After Five Years Apart 26. Surprise for Amelie
Two months had passed since Amelie gave birth. Benitto's leave has run out. Now the mother of one has resumed her work activities at the Demiurge shop.The difference in Amelie's face started to show when she first came back to work; her eye bags looked puffy, and she yawned a lot. It's safe to guess that she was sleep-deprived. Truly, taking care of a baby is exhausting. Nevertheless, all mothers must be happy to be able to take care of the baby they gave birth to.Amelie would often glance at the wall clock whenever she was done with a job. All her colleagues are well aware of this. Occasionally, they whisper to each other about Amelie's behavior.Time seemed to slow down as she worked, leaving her baby behind and entrusting it to Marie and Louise. There was a feeling of longing to go home soon to see Axel. Although she did not forget to pump breast milk to fulfill her son's milk needs while she was at work."Is something bothering you, Amelie?" chided Benitto, who stood watching th
Be a wife After Five Years Apart 27. All love Amelie
The night was very short for Amelie. The young mother was not yet satisfied with her longing for her baby, but dawn had already arrived to replace the night.I don't know what happened to her that made her feel so sad when she woke up.A peck was placed on the cheek of the tiny baby, who was still asleep in the baby box. Amelie gently rubbed Axel's cheek with a feeling of sadness. As if they were going to be separated for a long time. Because that was the reality she felt. Leaving Axel to work from morning until night was like parting with the little guy for a week.A mother would not easily leave her child, even if she entrusted her child to someone she trusted. Even if that person is the baby's father. It was the same for Amelie. Amelie's mind was always haunted by the image of Axel at home whenever she was at work."I'm leaving," said Amelie, who reluctantly stepped out of the house.Marie, who was very understanding of her granddaughter's movements, immediately walked after Amelie
Be a wife After Five Years Apart 28. Nauseating insistence
"Be careful on the road, dear. I look forward to your return," said Elena, who had just adjusted the collar of the white shirt Jonathan was wearing.Without saying a word and saying goodbye to his wife, Jonathan got into his black metallic car. He drove the car away from the yard.Theresia smiled happily at Elena, who had always been a standby wife for her son. The middle-aged woman hoped that Jonathan had truly forgotten Amelie."Let's go in, Elena." Theresia invited her daughter-in-law to enter the house.That morning, the lounge was quite quiet. There were only Elena and Theresia in the room. Each of them returned their attention to the catalog of accessory products from a very famous luxury brand."Mom, look at this bag." Elena showed the catalog book to Theresia. Her finger pointed to a $300,000 brown Hermes Birkin bag. Elena hoped that her wealthy mother-in-law would buy her the luxurious item she had been craving."Do you want me to buy it for you?" asked Theresia, her gaze not

That morning, Katie was walking with a tray, about to climb the stairs to Jonathan's room. Theresia's call for her name made her stop her steps. The servant girl immediately turned towards the source of the voice, and a middle-aged woman was walking towards her."You didn't forget, did you? what I told you to do?" asked Theresia as she checked the contents of the tray Katie was carrying.Toast, lamb, and beetroot juice were already on the tray."Not at all, ma'am," replied Katie politely.The woman nodded and displayed straight-lined lips."Good! Come to my daughter-in-law immediately. I think she's so exhausted that she doesn't have the energy to go downstairs to get her breakfast," pleaded Theresia, who again shook the folding fan in front of her neck."Yes, ma'am." Katie immediately walked upstairs to fulfill her employer's request. Although she was actually reluctant, she remembered the last time Elena told her to compress the body part that was right between the girl's crotch.In
Be a wife After Five Years Apart 30. Attempted murder
That night, the Hayes family was hosting their once-a-year dinner. The reputation of Edmund Hayes as the owner of a giant company in the city made all the important people in Auckland reluctant. They always came at the invitation of the CEO of the H&E Group.Meanwhile, the crowded atmosphere of the house becomes an opportunity for the daughter-in-law in the house to take revenge.Theresia's insistence that Elena routinely consumes beet juice, which the woman really doesn't like, actually leads to disaster for the big mistress.That night, Elena was dressed to the nines in a skimpy, tight black dress. Her long hair was deliberately put up in a bun to emphasize her oval face and sexy neckline.She was applying bright red lipstick to her slightly thick lips. From his dressing table, Jonathan was standing right behind Elena with a flat expression on his face. He was waiting for his wife to finish dressing up and come down to the hall together.Because it would be the talk of the women pre

"Mom, hold on, Mom," Elena whined as she continued to pretend to panic. Her acting skills were impeccable, even as tears streamed down her cheeks. I don't know where those tears came from.Theresia was still lying helplessly in Jonathan and Edmund's lap. There wasn't much movement from the woman, only a tight grip on her chest and eyes that continued to bulge due to a very strong heart pumping blood.Both eyeballs rotated, but the room in the car cabin seemed to be spinning. The dizziness Theresia experienced was so intense, it felt as if a large boulder had fallen on her head.In her helplessness, Theresia cried silently. Crystal chunks melted through her eyes. The woman hated her helpless self so much.Her two eyes stared at Jonathan and Edmund as if begging for help. But her words were stuck in her throat; not a single word escaped her lips, which were polished with bright red lipstick."Can you speed this car up?" asked Edmund as he massaged his throbbing temple. This time the man

Amelie greeted the morning with a smile. Unlike the past days, where her face was always gloomy if the sun began to rise from its hiding place.Her tiny lips continued to hum as she got ready to go to work."Hurry home when your work is done. I will always miss my handsome great-grandson." Marie said as she pecked the cheek of her great-grandson, who was in Amelie's arms."Grandma, don't worry, I'll be home as soon as the shop closes." Amelie said it with a smile. This morning, she was so happy to be able to bring Axel to work and see her baby whenever she felt homesick."Call home if he cries, then I'll come right over," Louise said in a serious tone with one hand clenched in the air, as if the old man could run as fast as a horse.Marie sighed and rolled her eyes, having heard her husband's words, which she thought were too much. How could Louise catch up with Amelie by running? While just walking to the bathroom alone, it took the man ten minutes to get there."Okay, Grandpa. You c
