Chapter 990 - Painful Love

Name:My Supermodel Wife Author:Renata99
Erika's words left Chris dumbfounded for a while.

Chris could see the dilemma Erika was in. Before he could comment, Erika bent down and put down her teacup, her eyes shining brightly. 

"Chris, don't worry about me and him. After all, the final result is not in our hands, there is no point in thinking about it. It's getting late now, go home and rest. For the future, please protect Merry for me."

Chris looked at Erika and nodded slightly. "Your words are unnecessary, no matter what the outcome is, you are our sister-in-law!" 

Erika smiled and thanked him. When she had sent Chris out, she stood in the living room downstairs and looked out the window for a long time.

Perhaps, now is the best result.

At first, she put away her decision to leave, because she really couldn't bear to part with Merry.

She had raised the child for so many years, no matter how good she was, she was not so generous as to let Emma take her.

However, Chris' presence became the biggest support for her at this time.

With him by Merry's side, Erika could be truly relieved.

...

That night, Erika returned to the master bedroom, standing alone in front of the door looking at the familiar scene.

After twenty years living here, it was time to put it all down and take a look outside.

Erika chuckled and walked to the next dressing room step by step.

In less than half an hour, Erika, who was stuffing her clothes into the suitcase, heard the sound of the master bedroom door opening.

She put the shirt in her hands on the low stool, turned off the light, and walked out of the dressing room. When she raised her head, she saw Samuel standing not far away with a bottle of alcohol in his hand.

His stern face was stained with a hint of drunkenness, his thick eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and his short hair was a little messy.

Erika stepped forward without showing her composure, took the coat from Samuel's arm nicely, and asked softly, "Did you drink?"

He didn't ask about Emma.

This made Samuel, who was struggling to find a way to explain, heave a sigh of relief.

His red eyes fell on Erika's face, and he pressed the corners of his lips saying. "So much trouble at once! How could I not drink it away!"

Erika shook her head sensibly. "It's okay, take a shower first, I'll make you some tea."

When those words were spoken, she hung his coat on the hanger by the wall and turned to leave.

Samuel straightened his posture, and as he opened the bedroom's door, he stepped forward and embraced her. "Erika, Emma really has a problem, this problem…"

Before he could finish speaking, Samuel hesitated to continue.

At this moment, Erika's wrist seemed to be burning by the temperature of Samuel's hot palm.

This intense pain traveled from her wrists to her limbs, and finally to the depth of her heart, the pain making her tremble.

His voice shattered her already fragile heart. On his drunken face, there was tenderness and intimacy when he talked about Emma.

Erika could clearly see the figure of Emma in her husband's heart. Even if she had been with him for twenty years, she was never enough to replace Emma.

Erika's fingers hanging by her side curled up tightly.

In a place that Samuel couldn't see, she slammed her palm hard.

She turned slightly to the side and looked into Samuel's complicated eyes. The light was so bright, but she couldn't see the reflection in his eyes.

Erika forcefully suppressed the tickle in her heart, and gently distanced herself. "It's okay, you don't need to explain to me, I can understand."

Samuel looked at the gentle and graceful Erika for a moment, and subconsciously sighed. "It's good that you can understand it."

Upon hearing that voice, Erika lowered her head sharply, her eyes filled with disappointment and ridicule.

As she turned and left without saying a word, tears fell from the corners of her eyes when she walked out of the master bedroom.

A soft-hearted woman like her always likes to vent her pain with tears.

Erika, turning 37 this year, has a strong hatred in her heart for the first time.

If she were a stronger woman, she would have definitely cried and raved how she was mistreated because of this matter. Wasn't Samuel too dismissive of her feelings?

Just because she loves her husband so much, should she deserve this humiliation?!

Erika walks into the kitchen downstairs in a troubled mood. As she descends the stairs, her mind keeps spinning and so she accidentally twists her ankle.

She falls into a corner. Holding onto her clothes, tears welled up in her eyes.

On this quiet night, Erika was sitting on the corner of the stairs crying, looking depressed and sad.

After an unknown amount of time, she walked into the living room, looked for the cell phone she had left on the sofa, and searched for a number with trembling fingertips.

In the search section, Erika hesitated for a long time, and finally dialed a number that she had not dialed for 20 years.

As the phone connected, a strange and familiar voice brought tears to the corners of her eyes again. 

...

The next morning, Merry and Anna went down to the kitchen early. Below the eyes of the two little girls were thick dark circles, and they sat side by side tiredly.

Merry told Anna the truth about last night without hiding anything. Even though this incident sounds a bit gruesome, Anna has a strong sense. After a while, she pulls Merry up and starts discussing precautions.

Emma is her own aunt, but if she really wanted to take Merry, Anna wouldn't sit still.

In this way, the two of them had been discussing until three in the morning. When they woke up the next day, two dark circles were already under their eyes.

"Merry, how about I accompany you to work starting today? I once won a taekwondo championship, so if there is an unprecedented situation, I can protect you!"

Anna wanted to protect her with all her heart, she wanted to make sure that no one would be able to harm her best friend.

Hearing that voice, Merry shook her head subconsciously. "No, Brother Chris will be with me from today onwards, there's nothing to worry about."

"But..."

When Anna wanted to say something, she suddenly heard someone enter from outside the door. Hearing the sound of footsteps, she stopped talking.

Outside the kitchen door, Erika appeared gracefully.

Merry held the milk cup and turned her eyes. Seeing her, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Mother, you are so beautiful today!"

Erika, who was walking slowly, was wearing a crimson dress today. She was very beautiful and graceful, especially with light makeup on her face, also her beautiful eyebrows and clear eyes.

For a delicate woman like her, after being nicely dressed, her whole body revealing the typical charm of a mature woman.

Erika hides her creases with light makeup. Hearing Merry's praise, she laughs and says. "Am I really beautiful?"

Merry gave a thumbs up and nodded enthusiastically. "Mom, you are very beautiful! If I were a man, I would definitely marry you!"

Anna also echoed with a stunning expression. "Auntie, if I were a boy, I would definitely fall in love with you!"

After the words fell, Samuel suddenly appeared from behind Erika.
