No One But You

Brooke released me. I directly lay on the carpet. Anyway, the carpet in his house was very soft and comfortable to lie on.

I guessed that Brooke was shocked. He came from an influential family. All the women he had dealt with were young ladies of note. None of them would be so shrewish on the surface.

He must have never seen a woman like me. I would let him know that this was the consequence of marrying an uncivil woman like me.

I lay on the ground and looked up at him. Even though he bent over and looked down at me, he still looked handsome with sharp features.

"Josephine," His voice was cold and he said impatiently, "it's the first morning of our new marriage. If you want to have a better life in this family, you'd better behave in a proper way."

I wouldn't follow the rules. What could he do to me?

I was very stubborn and could be persuaded by reason but not by force.

If he forced me, I would be against him.

I looked at him with a smile, "Do you think I married you to serve you and to live in harmony and amity with your family? Brooke, because of you, I, an innocent young girl, become a surrogate mother now. If you want me to give birth to the baby safely, then don't provoke me. Otherwise, I will kill myself and the baby."

Brooke looked at me in silence for a moment. He was too good and finally suppressed his anger.

He said impatiently to me, "Are you sure you're going to lie here all the time?"

Did he think I was a fool? The carpet was definitely not as comfortable as the bed!

So, I immediately got up and went back to my bedroom and lay on the bed.

Since he played hard ball, I would just refuse to serve tea with him.

Brooke slammed the door behind him.

I deliberately pissed him off!

Zofia squatted beside the bed and looked at me with concern, "I think Brooke is not a man to be trifled with. You acted so recklessly just now. Are not you afraid that you will have a hard time in the future?" "Do you think I live well now? Just because he is rich, he can do as he pleases and impregnates me for no reason?" I suddenly lost my temper and shouted at Zofia.

Since I saw Zofia, I had not cried. I had been grinning and looked inattentive.

But now, I could not hold back my tears.

I had always been positive. However, I was reduced to a passive position this time and was forced to marry a man and give birth to his child. I had to fawn on his family and face Calvin and Fairy. But I couldn't give up my baby.

If a person felt ambivalent, it meant that he must be concerned about something.

Zofia stretched out her arms to hold me and wiped my tears with her sleeve.

I knew that she also panicked. Because I seldom cried in front of her.

After graduation, she decided to go back to her city. I sent her to the train. She hugged me and cried terribly. I tried my best to hold back my tears. Until she got on the train and pressed her face against the window glass, tears began to spill out of my eyes.

Although I was strong, I could not fight back tears now.

I went to the bathroom to wash my face after crying for more than ten minutes. Then I applied skin care products, took a deep breath and said to Zofia, "Let's go downstairs for breakfast."

We walked out of the room and get off the elevator. As soon as the elevator door was opened, I saw Calvin and Fairy were half kneeling to serve tea to Master Knight.

Although I did not come from a wealthy family, I also knew that serving tea should be arranged according to the rule of the elderly first.

Younger brother could not serve tea until elder brother finished doing it. Now that Calvin was serving tea, as his elder brother's wife, I thought I did not need to do it.

So, I passed by them stately, but was stopped by Calvin's father.

"Brooke said you felt unwell and could not go downstairs. Why are you here?"

I stopped and turned to smile at him, "Good morning, father and grandfather. I felt unwell just now. But now, I suddenly feel better."

Brooke came to me and said in a low voice, "Since you come down, then serve the tea in a proper way."

"Calvin has already served the tea. Is it appropriate to let him do it first?"

He ignored me when a servant thrust a cup of tea into my hands.

In such case, I could not embarrass Brooke and throw away the tea cup.

Since it just happened to me, I would save Brooke's face.

Brooke and I were half kneeling in front of Master Knight. Brooke served tea first. The old man took it and sipped it. Then, I also handed over my cup. But Master Knight didn't take it for a long time.

He narrowed his eyes and stared at me, "After marrying into our Knight family, you have to obey the rules."

"Grandfather, my hands are sore." I shook my hands on purpose. The tea almost spilled from the cup.

Brooke immediately grabbed my wrist and turned to look at me deeply. I knew what he meant. He was warning me not to make trouble.

But Master Knight's instructions were endless.

"In the Knight family, we always show respect for seniority. As Brooke's wife, you should set a good example to your younger brothers and sisters. You have to look after your parents and serve your husband. Do you hear me?"

By my nature, I would definitely argue with him when I hear him say that. What era was this? Even the TV plays about ancient themes were not popular now, let alone live acting.

As I opened my mouth and was about to speak, Brooke took the tea cup from my hand and handed it to the old man, "Grandpa, Josephine is pregnant. She can't kneel for too long."

Brooke eased the situation. The old man naturally took the tea and sipped it. Then, he gave me a red packet.

I pinched the red packet. It was thin.

It looked like it was either a hundred or a check.

I was impatient to open the red packet and take out the content as soon as Stella helped me to my feet.

It was a check for 888,888.

Now, I finally realized the benefits of marrying into a rich family. They were so generous that people could get such a large amount of money by just serving tea.

I was overjoyed and laughed, "Why didn't you tell me that I could get red packets after serving tea?"

If he had told me, I would have gone downstairs long ago and would not pretend to be weak in front of him.

Brooke looked at me expressionlessly, "Are you happy now?"

"Sure. I am very happy now!"

While Brooke and I passed by Fairy, I deliberately bumped into her with my elbow. I looked back at her. Fairy looked very angry.

Brooke suddenly grabbed my elbow, "Stop making trouble, OK?"

I just did it. So what?

I just hated Fairy. So what?

She had enjoyed humiliating me and showing off in front of me. Now, we were sister-in-law and lived in a family. It would be funny in the future.00000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
