Every woman hoped that her man would not keep secrets from her. Chris smiled and said, "My dear wife, I was wrong! From now on, I promise that I will tell you everything and never hide anything!"
"Really?" Esther glanced at Chris playfully and hesitated for a moment before saying, "If it weren't for Candace Nance coming to us, I wouldn't have known that you have a childhood sweetheart."
Upon saying this, Esther's face showed resentment.
Candace Nance had always been a thorn in her heart.
Esther believed that since they were married, they should be completely open with each other. After all, Chris was her first love and her first man.
It could be said that she had nothing to hide from Chris.
However, it was evident that Chris had kept many things from her, causing her heartache.
"Hehe!" Seeing her like this, Chris scratched his head.
Esther glared at him with annoyance.
Was this scoundrel really laughing at a time like this? Couldn't he see that she was jealous?
Chris sighed softly, "Ah! I knew that you were upset about Candace Nance."
Esther pouted.
For any woman, suddenly having a rival in love would be upsetting.
Esther's heart tightened inexplicably, as if something terrible was about to happen. "That morning, the boy woke up to find that everything had changed. His once-loving father suddenly transformed into something else, becoming hideous and terrifying, utterly unrecognizable. The boy's father drove him and his mother out of their home..."
"No matter how much the boy pleaded on his knees, his father remained cold and unmoved. Finally, the boy and his mother were expelled from their home, penniless, and forced to live a vagrant life.
In the midst of poverty and illness, on a stormy night, the boy's mother starved to death in his arms."
"After his mother's death, the boy begged relentlessly... Sometimes, he had to fight other vagrants for a single bun, ending up bloodied and bruised. In order to survive, he had to constantly struggle against fate."
"In the end, the boy wandered from the north to the south, where he was eventually noticed by an old master from a wealthy family. The boy was taken in as a son-in-law to bring good luck to the family..."
Upon hearing this, Esther could no longer control her tears, which streamed down her face.
