Chapter 7 They Are a Perfect Match

Author: Balebajiao
Regarding Helena Byron, Juliet Wagner didn't know much.

She only knew that Helena Byron was a little girl whom Morgan Byron had found in the hospital's small garden when he was young and brought her home.

It was said that she suffered from a congenital blood disorder and had lived in the hospital since birth. Her illness remained untreated, and her mother passed away soon after. Her father was nowhere to be found, leaving Helena Byron abandoned in the hospital.

In truth, the Byron family wasn't particularly fond of this pale little girl. No wealthy family would willingly take in such a child, but Morgan Byron was determined, almost obsessively, to bring her home.

As the youngest male in the family, Morgan Byron was the most spoiled, and his family couldn't refuse him. When she arrived, she had no name; the hospital records only listed a nickname, Helena. Despite being four years old, she appeared more like a one- or two-year-old. Morgan Byron gave her the name Helena and bestowed upon her the Byron surname.

Helena Byron was very shy and introverted, never speaking to anyone, and even forbade others from entering her room. However, she was close only to Morgan Byron.

From childhood, Morgan Byron cleaned her room, helped her dress, eat, and even brush her teeth when she was ill. She was like a child, or a pet, or his personal possession.

Of course, he was also her personal possession.

When Helena Byron reached the age of sixteen and began to develop feelings, she became even more dependent on Morgan Byron. She wouldn't allow him to get close to any other women. Even if Senior Mrs. Byron spoke a few more words with her own son, Helena Byron would become unhappy.

Her unhappiness manifested physically. Whenever she was upset, she would faint and then be bedridden for a long time. Over time, even Senior Mrs. Byron dared not get too close to Morgan Byron.

The Driver told Juliet Wagner all this with a look of incomprehension on his face. It was normal for him not to understand the affairs of infatuated men and women.

Juliet Wagner leaned against the corridor railing, and a glance back revealed Morgan Byron sitting on the sofa, gazing at the girl sitting not far from him.

The girl, blushing, lowered her head slightly, and Morgan Byron looked at her as if admiring a perfect painting, his eyes filled with adoration and a dreamy haze.

At that moment, Juliet Wagner was staring at Morgan Byron, and she thought her expression must be the same as his.

Because from this angle, Morgan Byron was him.

Even the tiny brown mole on the tip of his nose, its size, color, and position, were exactly the same.

It was as if God, pitying her loss, had given her another.

So, while everyone else in the world couldn't understand Morgan Byron, only she could.

Just as Jessie Watt had said, in a certain sense, she and Morgan Byron were a perfect match, both unreasonable madmen.

Was there really only one man or woman in the world? Without them, couldn't there be others?

Why must they seek an exact replacement?

Even if it were an exact replica, it wouldn't be the real person.

Jessie Watt didn't understand.

Eternal love is more fitting for the dead.

If Juliet Wagner's lover were still alive, they might have grown tired of each other and gone their separate ways by now.

But he died when she loved him most, which was like tearing out a piece of her heart.

So, she needed to find another piece to fill the void.

Even if it couldn't truly replace the original, at least it would prevent her from bleeding to death.

Morgan Byron, too, should be the same, right?

On the last day of their overtime, Morgan Byron held her hand."Tomorrow, you don't have to come in.""Am I being fired so soon?""No, you always say you're tired. How could I possibly overwork you?"Morgan Byron withdrew his hand, and Juliet Wagner suddenly felt something in her palm. She opened her hand and found a ring inside.Juliet Wagner was momentarily stunned, not quite reacting at first."We got our marriage certificate rather suddenly, and I don't think I've given you a wedding ring yet.""When you pulled my hand just now, it scared me." Juliet Wagner examined the ring: "It's a beautiful design, and the diamond is quite large. But isn't it a bit sad that I have to put on my own wedding ring?"Juliet Wagner extended her hand to Morgan Byron,

    The phone on the table suddenly rang, but Morgan Byron didn't even glance at it. Ruo Du reminded him."Your phone is ringing. It shouldn't be your mother, right?""Ignore it. No one important is calling me now.""You make it sound like if I call you in the future, you'll say the same thing?" Ruo Du glanced at the phone and recognized that it was a call from Mr. Byrong, a high-ranking executive at the company."Mr. Byrong is calling. Aren't you going to answer it?""I have nothing to do with Guannan anymore. Why should I answer it?""Is there something urgent at the company?""Whatever happens at the company has nothing to do with us. You're pregnant, so don't worry so much."Ruo Du couldn't force him to answer, but when Mr. Byrong's calls kept coming, it was clear something urgent was happening. She picked up the call, and Mr. Byrong sounded very anxious."Ms. Du, is Mr. Byron there?""He is here." Ruo Du looked down at Morgan Byron, who was squatting in front of her, massagi

    Senior Mrs. Byron looked at Morgan Byron with despair. After staring at him for a moment, she knew that this was the greatest concession he could make.But Morgan Byron was right; what power did he have to change a case that had already been judged?Tears streaming down her face, Senior Mrs. Byron wiped her eyes and grabbed Morgan Byron's hand."Morgan, Mom begs you, please find someone reliable to take good care of Morton. He has never suffered in his life, and he really can't handle hardship."Morgan Byron fixed his gaze on the hand that Senior Mrs. Byron held onto his sleeve. "If you say one more word, I'll take back what I just said."No amount of pleading could match the weight of those words. Senior Mrs. Byron reluctantly pulled her hand back.She opened her mouth, wanting to give one last instruction, but the sharp look in Morgan Byron's eyes made her close it again.Just as Morgan Byron was about to close the door, Senior Mrs. Byron suddenly whispered, "Congratulations,

    "After all, even if it's nothing serious, we should still go to the hospital," Juliet Wagner said as they walked out of the restaurant."Then just wait and agree to her terms.""Or I could go check on her without letting her know. Once I confirm she's fine, I’ll come back.""What's a pregnant woman always doing at the hospital? She's taking advantage of your kindness to manipulate you."They reached the car, and Morgan Byron opened the door.Du Du was still hesitating: "Really, just ignore it?""You’re not the Buddha who saves all beings.""I never said I was saving all beings, but I'm afraid that if something happens to Senior Mrs. Byron, you’ll regret it later.""Regret is my business, not yours.""Morgan Byron, we are husband and wife now. You need to understand that your problems are my problems too."Morgan Byron's hand rested on the top of the car door: "Take care of yourself first."Juliet Wagner had no choice but to get in the car, but she felt that Senior Mrs. Byron

    Juliet Wagner sat down at her seat, watching the two figures leaving through the floor-to-ceiling window, and couldn't help but sigh."This meal is really expensive. A hotpot would usually cost just a few hundred, but now it feels like we should have gone for abalone, sea cucumber, and shark fin instead.""As long as you're happy, don't worry about the cost-effectiveness.""I'm not happy. Spending so much on a hotpot.""If you look at it from another perspective.""Like what?""Even if a hotpot costs a few hundred, it's worth spending more to make you happy."Juliet Wagner rested her cheek in one hand, staring intently at Morgan Byron. Her gaze made him feel a bit uneasy."What's wrong? Do I have something on my face?""No, nothing, but your words were as beautiful as flowers just now.""Order some dishes." Morgan Byron handed the menu to Juliet Wagner.Juliet Wagner took the menu but didn't order, still staring at him without blinking."Your gaze is making me want to run a

    After walking out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Juliet Wagner couldn't help but ask Morgan Byron."Why did you come?""Didn't I just explain it?"Juliet Wagner pointed at her belly. "Because of him? But you don't seem like a very responsible person."Morgan Byron was amused by her. "Should I be angry?"Juliet Wagner also laughed. "People really are greedy. Before, when I thought you wouldn't come, I only wanted you to come. Now that you're here, I'm wondering why you came. For me or for the child?""Does it matter?""It does. If you were to lose your memory forever, I would have a husband who only loves the child and not me.""You can still back out." Morgan Byron pointed to the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau behind them.Juliet Wagner linked her arm with his. "You want to run? Dream on, there's no turning back now.""What do you want to eat?"Juliet Wagner was taken aback. "Hmm?""It's almost noon. What do you feel like eating?""Your thoughts jump around too much.""Yo
