NovelEnglishErica was careless and often got into trouble. Matthew believed that if she had married someone else instead of him, her husband's family might have alienated her because of who she was. Matthew would not allow this to happen!
His Rika was born into a rich and influential family. She came to this world to enjoy love and be spoiled. He wanted her to be happy her entire life.
It was true that she was naughty and mischievous, and sometimes, she could be very irritating. But so what? To Matthew, these were the traits that endeared her to him. If she didn't have these characteristics, she might not have attracted his attention.
He genuinely believed what he had said before—she didn't need to do anything. She brought him happiness simply by being with him.
"Matthew Huo, you indulge her too much! She will cause serious trouble in the future!" Phoebe had never been bold enough to speak this way in Matthew's presence. This was the first time, and perhaps, the last.

Phoebe, Erica didn't cause your miscarriage, and even if she did, I would not let anything happen to her!" If he couldn't bear responsibility for such a trifle matter, he didn't deserve Erica.
The woman on the bed shook her head in disbelief and murmured, "This can't be happening! Matthew, I've loved you for six years. How can you do this to me?"
After all these years, in the end, she got nothing but the status of a married woman.
'Six years? So what?' Matthew thought. The years he had harbored feelings for Erica were... It had been so long that he couldn't even remember!
She had attracted his attention from the very beginning. Perhaps those early days didn't count as he hadn't developed feelings for her then.
A few years ago, Wesley brought Erica to the Huo family manor, and that was when Matthew began to like her. He thought he had fallen in love with her only after their engagement.

"You are a vicious woman. You killed your child. That was Nathan's only child. I won't let you get away without facing the consequences of your actions! You are fortunate as this is not the right time to ask you to leave Y City. But, I'm warning you. Pray for yourself, and don't ever mess w

The girl on the ground raised her head and answered, "I am searching for someone. As I lost my phone, I'm not sure which villa they live in." She couldn't remember which villa was Matthew's. "May I know your surname?"
Afraid that the bodyguard would spot her, Erica climbed down the wall before she replied. "My surname is Li."
The strength it took to climb down the wall left Erica breathing heavily, which caused the other female to mishear her.
'Her surname is Lin? Then she is not the person for whom I'm looking, ' the girl thought.
The bodyguard checked the top floor but didn't find Erica. He thought he should report to Matthew. "Mr. Huo, I have bad news—"
He reported the situation in detail and followed Matthew's instructions to check the wall he had been guarding. There was indeed a rope.
'Oh, my God! I was played! I'm screwed!'
As soon as Erica jumped off the wall, the bodyguard chased her.
