His love

Before Matthew could speak, Wilhelmina sobbed loudly, “Matt, I knew it! I knew you’d break up with me one day. 

“It was all my fault. I failed to frame Willow, and I even gave myself fertility issues! 

Matt. I’m no longer a complete woman. I lost my privilege of becoming a mother. Since I can’t give you children, I deserve to be broken up with because I’m no longer good enough for you!” 

“Willa…” Wilhelmina had indeed committed a grave mistake. However, his love for her had become a habit. Her pitiful behavior evoked his sympathy. 

She was, after all, the woman who had stayed by his side at his lowest point for four years! 

“Matt, stop. I know you’ll never marry me anymore.” Wilhelmina struggled to catch her breath. 

Gaping, she waited for her breathing to stabilize before saying, “Matt, am I a despicable, horrible woman in your eyes now? 

“I know I’m in the wrong, but I’m scared you’d hate me. Matt, I beg of you. Please do not hate me even if we break up.” 

“Willa, you shouldn’t hurt yourself for Willow.” She touched his soft spot. He gently clutched her tiny hand. “Willa, even if you succeeded in framing Willow, you’d still suffer from long–term health issues. It’s not worth it at all.” 

“No! Matt, you don’t get it!” She shook her head hard. “Matt, I love you. I fell hopelessly in love with you the moment I set my eyes on you. 

“That’s why I stayed by your side when the whole world turned against you, when you had nothing to your name and struggled to build your life. Matt, I thought you’d love me as much as I love you. But how could you think of taking Willow as your mistress? 

“I want true love, not just a marriage on paper! How could you think of dating other women when you already have me? I can’t take it! I can’t accept you thinking of another woman! That’s why I’d rather hurt myself to separate you and Willow!” 

“Willa…” He cast a complicated glance at her. Indeed, she had steadfastly stood by him through the most difficult time of his life. However, he fell for another woman after he reestablished himself. It was his fault for being unloyal to her. 

Still, he struggled to make sense of Wilhelmina’s actions. He truly believed that it was unwise to sacrifice their child and her health just to frame Willow. 

Had Zayn not appeared in time, Willow would have been dead. He and Wilhelmina would have made an irreparable mistake. 

“Matt, I’m sorry. It was my fault. I did you, Willow, and our baby wrong. I’m filled with shame when I’m with you. Let’s break up because I don’t deserve you!”

“Willa, let’s register our marriage tomorrow!” Matthew clasped her hands tightly and said with determination. 

Her misty eyes widened in disbelief and delight. She did not expect her tactic to work and revive her dying relationship. 

Skyler was right–as long as she brought up her four years of sacrifice for Matthew, he’d forgive her no matter what she had done. 

Suppressing the glee, she put on a doubtful expression. “Matt, don’t you see me as evil? Even I find myself unreasonable.” 

“Willa, you did not give up on me at my lowest. I have promised not to let your love be in vain, and I’ll throw a wedding of the century for you!” 

“Matt, you’re so good to me.” Wilhelmina leaned against his chest tenderly. 

He wrapped his arms around her, but his thoughts wandered.
