NovelEnglishErica felt angry and betrayed when she learned that Matthew had been hiding the fact that he had been using condoms. Obviously, he had taken advantage of her because she was ignorant about condoms.
She decided to watch some adult movies to advance her knowledge after she returned to Y City. That way, she wouldn't be deceived by the cunning Matthew again!
"It's late!" Matthew whispered as he turned her over and kissed her without hesitation.
The next morning
When Matthew went downstairs, Erica and Wesley were having a heated discussion.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was a trace of anger in her tone as she said, "We are not destined to be together. Don't force us." She rubbed her aching waist secretly. If she hadn't been at home today, she would have missed her lunch because of the previous passionate night.
Wesley was baffled by his daughter's stance. He just couldn't understand why she would behave this way. What was the girl thinking? From what he had seen, Matthew was an ideal son-in-law, and he wouldn't be able to find a better one even if he searched the world! However, when Erica persisted, he argued, "I have to tell you that an arranged marriage can sometimes work! You are so lucky to be with Matthew. Why do you always have to complain?"
"Dad! How can you know that this is right for me?"
"I'm your father. What I say is right! Well, since you insist, how about this? Don't return to Y City. Instead, get a divorce. Then he can marry Tessie's sister. By the way, what's her name?" Wesley said as he crossed his arms across his chest.
Erica's expression soured at the reminder. Reluctantly, she replied, "Phoebe."
"Yes. If you're so unhappy, then divorce Matthew and let Phoebe be Mrs. Huo. This way, I won't have to hear you whine about him anymore!"
Erica snorted, "I won't give him to her. She hasn't apologized for slandering me! She will never be Mrs. Huo. Not in this life or the next!"
The more Erica thought about the scheming woman and how much she coveted the position of Mrs. Huo, the more unappealing the idea of divorcing Matthew became. 'If I continue to be angry with him, Phoebe might get her chance!' she thought sullenly. action
Blair, who had taken Chantel to the supermarket to buy some food, returned at this point. As soon as they entered the living room, she saw Matthew standing at the stairs. She immediately walked up to him and asked with concern, "Matthew, have you finished your work? Are you tired?"
"Thank you for asking, Mom. I'm not tired."
When she heard Blair call Matthew's name, Erica's eyes almost popped o
Blair happened to see how angry Erica was with Matthew and scolded her daughter.

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Gifford returned to work. On the eighth day, Matthew and Erica left the Li family's house and headed for Y City.
Yvette's wedding was set for the second day of the second Lunar month as, by then, everyone would visit A Country to attend the ceremony.
Erica ran to her bedroom the minute they stepped into their villa in Y City. She found all the condoms that Matthew had bought and threw them in the trash can in front of him.
After that, she placed her hands on her hips and raised her chin proudly. "If you are not convinced, just hold it! Or I'll tell your parents that you're preventing them from having a grandchild."
Suppressing the smile in his eyes, Matthew took out two cards and waved them in front of her. He had promised her that he would give them to her in A Country.
The arrogance on the woman's face disappeared in an instant. She ran to him happily and said in a sweet voice, "Dear Matthew."
Matthew didn't mind that the money had changed her attitude toward him. He hooked her collar with his left index finger and placed the cards into her clothes with his right hand. "I'll keep my promise. I won't use condoms anymore from now on."
What was the worst that could happen? If she got pregnant, he would have to wait for about a year. Then, he would be able to have sex with her again.
Erica removed the two cards from her clothes and looked at them. One of them was the card he had showed her in the office the other day.
