Upon hearing this, Carlos also started pondering on this issue.
Wouldn’t he get tired of facing the same person in the next 60 years?
He imagined a beautiful future with Edith, where they were holding each other side by side.
He playfully pinched her chubby cheeks and reassured her, “With the right person, you’ll never get bored no matter how much time you spend together. In fact, you might even feel like time flies too quickly and it’s never enough.”
Edith was deeply moved when she heard this.
She should be with the right person.
That’s right. Hadn’t she found the right person already?
She smiled and held his hand, saying. “Marry me, after I get divorced.”
When she last opened up about her feelings, she only promised to think about it.
This time, however, she was certain of her own heart.
Why couldn’t it be him?
She wouldn’t regret it, even if she had to face numerous love rivals and dangers.
With him, she learned how to love and deal with those who bullied her.
Her life would definitely be better than before.
Edith agreed to become Carlos‘ personal designer, thinking that his conditions were just a joke at first. But when Sam presented a booklet of all of Carlos‘ personal assets, she realized he was serious.
“Since you don’t fully trust me, I’ll just put my most important asset, my company, on the line to give you peace of mind.”
“You don’t have to do this, I thought you were joking.”
“But I was being serious and you deserve it anyways. You don’t have to be formal with me. From now on, you have the right to enjoy everything Town. This is your right as my wife. You deserve to be happy and not miss out on anything, If something’s missing, I’ll make sure to get it for you. I’m here to take care of you, always.”
Edith felt a warm feeling in her heart when she heard that.
No one had ever said such a thing to her since she was a child.
The most common thing she heard was that she wasn’t a real daughter of the Meyer family, but a fake one.
If she had something, then Vanessa would definitely have it too.
And whatever she didn’t have, Vanessa would still have it.
Was it her turn now to be envied by others when
Tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably.
had always been the one envying others?
The man looked at her and gently wiped away her tears with his warm fingertips. His voice was soothing and tender, “Why are you crying? It hurts my heart to see you like this.”
“I’m happy…” she stammered.
“I’m also happy.”
After she signed it, he turned to attend to his own affairs without further ado.
There was an emergency meeting later, so he asked her to go back first and come to work in the afternoon.
She was going to work, helping him with his appearance every day and fixing his face if necessary. She also had to touch up his makeup if he looked tired.
If he wasn’t feeling well, it would directly affect his employees. She knew he wasn’t invincible and sometimes got tired. Even if he tried to cheer himself up by drinking coffee, his tired face would give him away if he wasn’t in a good state that day.
At that time, Sam would also offer to help him find a makeup artist if needed.
Edith had learned how to do makeup at school, so she could easily help out.
Her daily work probably consisted of fixing her hair, applying makeup, and making sure her clothes were tidy. After that was done, she could fully focus on design work.
She had her own desk that was conveniently located near his work area where she worked on designing drafts.
men’s clothing but she was quite adept at it.

Her designs were focused on one person, and that person was Carlos.
From then on, all of her designs were made to fit one particular size, a size that only Carlos could wear.
This marked the beginning of her professional career, which was not entirely conventional. But it was thanks to Carlos‘ support and guidance that she was able to shine in the fashion industry.
Of course, these were stones for another time.
After finishing the meeting, Carlos walked out of the conference room. Sam’s face looked serious as he respectfully said to him, “Sir, Madam is here.”
His brows furrowed deeply in response.
His eyes were filled with intense emotion, and there was a strong sense of discomfort, not quite hatred or disgust, but a deep dislike.
He looked at the closed door of the office, narrowed his eyes slightly, and walked inside.
As soon as the door opened, he saw an elegant woman sitting in a wheelchair.
Despite being almost 50 years old, she looked like a woman in her 30s due to her well–groomed appearance and fashionable clothing.
Although she was sitting in a wheelchair, it did not affect her elegant demeanor.
Ned stood behind, pushing the wheelchair,
When the woman saw her only son, she waved her hand, signaling for others to leave.
Sam and Ned exchanged glances and left in a hurry.
Rubby sniffed and said, “Your office hasn’t smelled like women’s perfume in years, but this time it’s different. Hmm, it’s the Dior perfume I picked out. It must be Edith, my daughter–in–law who just got married and hasn’t had a chance to meet me yet, right?”
She had instructed Ned to arrange everything in the villa, so she was very familiar with this fragrance.
“Yes, mother.”
He spoke with a formal tone, as if he was talking to someone in a higher position. Anyone who saw them would never think that they were a mother
and son.
“I thought you didn’t like her, and it made me anxious for a long time. But now I see that I was wrong. She was not my initial choice. I investigated all the girls of the right age in Caurtine and found a suitable wife for you. Vanessa’s blood type and genes are the most suitable. Since she was healthy, she could have given birth to a healthy baby. However, I didn’t expect that Glenn took advantage of the situation and sent his niece instead.”
“She looks just like Vanessa, so Ned didn’t realize it at first. But when he got the marriage license for you, he found out that Vanessa had already run off with someone else. Of course, we couldn’t let such woman into our family. I thought you would get rid of this fake one quickly, but she managed to stick around and even win your heart.”
As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows and looked at him critically.
your usual
“Thanks, mother, for fulfilling my wish, I’m content with my wife and have no plans of changing her. But, I’m curious about one thing, why did you not look for a wife from a high–class family? Instead, you looked for someone with a matching blood type and genes. This doesn’t seem like style. Didn’t you think that the family is more important than your own interests? Why did you choose an unimpressive daughter–in–law for yourself?”
Carlos‘ gaze fell on Rubby, and his words were full of sarcasm.
This didn’t seem to be Rubby’s style.
She was willing to do anything for the family, even if it meant dragging him into this mess.
The man squinted slightly, and smiled.
Yet, his smile was very insincere.
