NovelEnglishErica was dumbfounded. She tried to ask Carlos, but he didn't answer her question directly. Instead, his words added to her confusion. 'Someone who loves me so much? Who could Can't Do Anything be?' she thought inwardly.
Debbie was also confused. She had never thought that someone would dare to admire her daughter-in-law. Otherwise, that man was courting death.
When Carlos was about to go upstairs, Erica quickly followed him. "Dad, please tell me who he is," she pleaded.
Carlos smiled but didn't say anything. It was Matthew's way of loving Erica, and he didn't want to get involved. Matthew must be the one to confess his love for Erica by himself.
"Dad, what's his—"
"Rika!" Before she could finish her question, Matthew called her name. He was walking towards her.
Erica desperately wanted an answer from Carlos, so she didn't mind him. She stood at the staircase and looked up. "Dad, what's his last name?"

Carlos stopped his steps and turned to look at Matthew. He secretly winked at him and said, "She is asking me who is Can't Do Anything."
Matthew's heart skipped a beat. A hint of nervousness flashed through his eyes.
But when Erica turned to look at him, his facial expression went back to normal. She asked, "Matthew, do you have any idea who is Can't Do Anything?"
Instead of answering her question, he held her waist and led her to the dining table. "Never mind him. What's more important now is our twin babies in your belly. You have to be more careful. Don't run around."
"I know that. I'm not running around. I just want to ask Dad something."
"Honey, stop asking him because he won't tell you. If you really want to know, I'll investigate it for you."
Fortunately, Erica believed in his words. "Okay. Help me check Can't Do Anything's real identity. He is one of my followers in Weibo."
"I will."
Matthew silently heaved a sigh of relief.
Now that he promised her, he knew that she would stop asking around. As for the result of his investigation, it would totally depend on when he would be ready to confess to her.
After dinner, the couple stayed at the manor for a while. Erica was in Debbie's room, helping her sort out her cosmetics.
Actually, Debbie didn't let her do anything because she was pregnant. She just sat next to her and watched her do the job herself.
Erica insisted on helping, but her mother-in-law refused firmly.
A few moments later, Debbie went out of her bedroom to get something. On her way back, Matthew opened the door of the study while holding a phone in his hand. Seeing his mother, he casually said, "Mom, I'm in a

As soon as he hung up, Owen moved quickly. As a result, he had accomplished the mission in the afternoon. He handed all the documents he gathered to Matthew.
Inside his office, Matthew was staring at the pile of documents in front of him with a frown while listening to Owen's report.
"Mrs. Huo's lawyer is Kelvin Fei. He is the legal advisor of the Champion Group. Based on what I've found, he put aside all his work to focus only on Mrs. Huo's case."
The fury in Matthew's eyes deepened. The moment Owen mentioned the Champion Group, he immediately threw the documents on his desk angrily.
Owen abruptly stopped talking. He took a deep breath to alleviate the nervousness in his heart before he continued, "I've also consulted with the lawyer of our company. He said that if a wife files a lawsuit on behalf of her husband, the husband's signature is still necessary. Mr. Huo, don't you know about the case?" In his mind, he couldn't help wondering, 'Did Mrs. Huo ask someone to forge Mr. Huo's signature?'
Everything was now clear to Matthew why Erica asked for his seal and pressed his finger on the papers.
But that was not the reason why he was angry. He was mad that she asked Watkins to find her a lawyer. As her husband, she didn't even consider asking for his help.
He suddenly looked up to Owen and ordered, "Ask someone to hold off this case!" This case wouldn't continue until Erica came to him for help.
"Yes, Mr. Huo." Although Owen was still confused, he didn't dare to ask anymore. He would just do what he was told to.
That night, when Matthew returned to the villa, Erica was already asleep. He sat on the edge of the bed and stared at her beautiful face. He pinched her cheek and called out her name, "Erica."
