Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Mother-in-law...

Maddox's biological mother - Aurora Stark.

This... was the person Maddox mentioned to her before.

Back then, when Maddox and Benedict weren't on good terms, she heard from Maddox about what happened and thought that her mother-in-law she had never met had an unyielding personality. She immediately asked for a divorce when she found out he cheated on her and never got in touch with her ex-husband ever since.

Her determination and firmness were something she admired.

That was also why Maddox hated Benedict so much back then.

It was just that...

"I know that I've gone too far, but this is just what I think. There are no 'what ifs' in this world. If there were, then many people would not have died and many things won't be like what they are today. No matter how things are right now, I'm just glad that everyone can gather here today."

Abigail wiped her tears again and said softly,

"Everything in this world is predestined. My sister and I were destined to run away from home, and she was destined to meet a heartless man. Maddox is destined to be brought home by the Yardley family and then... he was also destined to meet you."

Minerva was at a loss for words.

"Everything happens for a reason,"

Abigail lowered her eyes as she muttered.

"Auntie, what happened can't be undone. Don't think too much about it," Minerva walked up to Abigail and patted her on the shoulder.

"I know," Abigail replied as she washed her face in the sink and then chuckled. "I'm fine now. Let's go back."

"Auntie, I have something to talk to you about."

"What's the matter?"

Minerva looked at her and hesitated for a while. Then, she told Abigail what she and Maddox had decided.

Abigail took in everything she said with an indifferent expression on her face. "Sure. You both can decide what you want to do as a couple."
