Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook

Stefan’s mother came from an educated family but was married off to Stefan’s father against her will.

After Stefan was born, she wasn’t favored among the other wives, and Stefan’s father naturally abandoned her.

Stefan’s mother lived in constant sorrow until she took her own life with a silk scarf when Stefan was eight years old.

The night before her death, she told Stefan, “My only wish in life was to leave this family, and soon I will fulfill it.

Don’t hold it against me.

If you find no happiness here when you grow up, be brave and leave.

I will always support you.

”

The following day, Stefan understood that his mother’s method of “leaving” was through her tragic suicide.

Stefan sat next to his mother’s lifeless body, while his father barely gave them a glance.

At that moment, he vowed to one day escape the family’s grasp.

As Stefan grew up with his male relatives, he never stood out.

That was because he chose to hide his true capabilities and pursue a career in education.

In truth, Stefan wasn’t just a brilliant student but also shrewd, adept at handling international trade and thriving in various domains.

His father, always a daring and decisive man, showed little interest in nurturing Stefan, who had become a mild-mannered scholar.

So, he barely cared when Stefan decided to forge his own path.

In his father’s view, what could Stefan possibly achieve away from Aurora? Just teach and make a meager income? Was that enough to support a family? He assumed that once Stefan encountered difficulties, he would return to Aurora to rely on him.

His father had modest expectations for Stefan, yet he was curious about Stefan’s wife and her elder brother.

The Foster family was quite prominent in Swynborough, and although Landen didn’t attend the wedding due to poor health, he was eager to discuss expanding the shipping business with Stefan’s father.

Partly to honor the Foster family, Stefan’s father turned the wedding into a lavish event, also subtly expressing his interest in his new daughter-in-law.

This way, no one in Aurora would dare trouble Raegan.

At this moment, Stefan had just washed his hands and sat down at the dining table.

The servant laid out the tableware and then quietly left, giving them privacy.

Stefan picked up a vegetable, tasted it, and remarked, “Not bad.

You might want to try this.

It’s good for the babies.

”

Raegan tentatively tried a bite.

It tasted like wax for her, but she continued eating for her babies’ sake.

Stefan tasted each dish first and if he liked it, he recommended it to Raegan.

Influenced by him, Raegan ended up eating more than usual.

When she was nearly finished, Stefan put down his fork and shared some news.

“Mr.

Dixon had his surgery, and there were no complications.

He’s recovering now, and it looks like the outcome might be better than we expected.

”

Raegan didn’t reply.

But deep down, she felt a weight Lift from her shoulders, Knowing he was doing well confirmed she had made the right decision.

Stefan didn’t tell Raegan to stop worrying.

Instead, he looked at her and said, “Raegan, the most important thing for you right now is your own well-being.

When you’re happy, the babies feel it too.

”

Raegan knew this was true.

A mother’s mood could affect her unborn child.

Yet, happiness eluded her.

The highlight of her day was video chatting with Janey.

Days had gone by since they had distributed gifts to each household, yet there was still no word from her mother.

Erick had been returning home late from his searches for their mother across Aurora, finding no clues.

As time went by, Raegan and Erick began to wonder if the purchase of traditional medicine they learned about was just a coincidence.
