Chapter 97 - 97. It's All About Money And Happiness

Edwards and I slept together after eating quite a bit. We were still rolling out the carpet in front of the tent. now Edwards hugged me tightly, We both looked up at the sky and fixedly stared at the stars that were shining quite beautifully.

This feeling of comfort and warmth makes me not want to turn away, let it go if I fall in love. Let it go if I love Edwards so silly, I don't care. I just want to feel all the comforts that I have never felt in my life, sleep with the people we like and see how God's creation is perfectly formed.

"The stars are beautiful, just like your face." Edwards said to me, I who heard this just chuckled and nodded.

"At this rate, I don't think I want to go home. To stay on a desert island like this and spend a lot of time with you. Isn't this so fun?" I asked, Edwards also immediately nodded.

"Then we don't have to go home, just stay here.. together enjoying the moon and the night breeze. I also have the intention to live on a desert island, build a beautiful house and be able to calm down without any significant disturbance in the city." Edwards' statement did sound very convincing.

"But we still have to go back to where we came from, work again to live." I answered honestly.

"Don't you want a hard life?" Edwards' question made me raise an eyebrow in confusion.

"Why do you ask like that?" I said.

"Since you put me to work, will you leave if I have nothing?" Edwards asked again.

"Not necessarily. Can you live a hard life? Given that you always get what you want, how can you become unemployed later and are confused about what to feed our children?" I asked back, a question that made sense enough for me to ask Edwards.

"Not really, it's just that I don't think you want to be close to a poor man." There are words that are not pleasant to hear at this time, I know Edwards must feel I am a mercenary woman. Even though it's true, but in this world. who doesn't want money? Who wants to live poor, so it's hard to even eat?

"The statements you make, are like accusations as if I only want your wealth and money. If you want to live on a desert island like this, together with myself and our children. At least you have to be well prepared, you know? in my life I always work hard to earn a lot of money, Not for spree and spend all the money for pleasure. I do all that so that one day my life and my children are not difficult..

I don't want my children to feel hungry, lack of food, lack of proper education, lack of time to play with their friends. Because she has to help me earn money. I don't want anything like that to happen to my children. I want to fight now, collect as much money as possible and when I'm not young anymore, I still have enough savings to support my child properly. like other children, without any flaws.

It's true, money can't buy everything. But everything needs money, happiness is created because of money too. Sometimes many marriages and domestic relationships are destroyed because of money. Many children are tortured and die because their parents have no money.

Doesn't everything feel weird? That's why I want to get rid of one problem for my future marriage relationship, I want money problems not the main problem. That's why I'm always looking for money and money. I just thought in realization, All women want their children and husbands to be happy without starving. Isn't that right?." I looked at Edwards face from the side, he just stood there still staring at the sky without blinking.

"My money and the savings I have, I think is enough for our lives in the next 50 years. But maybe I won't be able to splurge on vacations in luxury resorts and ride luxury vehicles every day. I have savings that I always set aside every month from my money. what I have, the savings are not in my name. But in the name of my mother, I deliberately did this so that no one would know that I had money elsewhere." Edwards said quietly.

I'm getting confused by what Edwards said, so what if Edwards has savings elsewhere? why did Edwards have to save secretly?

"The Douglas family has always wanted all the wealth that I have, I own part of the Douglas Family property and quite a lot of shares in the Douglas company. More precisely I am the leader and full control over everything. I got this much because it was given by my grandfather and mother, they died but left everything to me That's why In the Douglas family there is little joy.

We look good, look fun and it looks very warm. But in fact all my family wants to get some of the property that I have, maybe not just some. But Everyone, They act as if they love me. Giving all the attention and affection, But in reality they are not that good. and I always pretend not to understand and not to understand. so what? so that I always have a place to come home to.

Why is everyone always chasing worldly treasures that will not be brought to death? why do they give up happiness, family warmth, love and affection just for a treasure that can be consumed by time?

Sometimes I think, can everyone in this world really only be happy if they have a lot of money? Is everyone in this world only okay when they have a good job? can be respected and lift their chin very high, is that a form of true happiness?.

I live decades, it's uncomfortable to have a lot of money. I don't even have an identity for myself, I feel the money I hold in my hands doesn't bring me happiness at all. Am I wrong Choon-hee? With all my current thoughts? am i being too selfish? I said Like this, but I can see every day little people who are hungry and holding back sleep with very sore stomachs. am i selfish? If Saying money doesn't make me fine." Edwards said in a hoarse voice, I was silent. I was mute without being able to reply to what Edwards said.

Money and happiness? can these two words coexist? maybe yes, but can they complement each other?

The answer is no!

Our happiness can be from what we think is right, sometimes there are people who are happy when they get a lot of money.. But sometimes there is money people are still not happy.
