Trapped with a Doctor
Chapter 324 Happy New Year

She couldn't turn down Aron's request, so she accepted the card.

Martha had the card in her left hand and her right hand was held tightly by Aron, as they got in the car together.

When she was in the shower that evening, she wondered why Aron was suddenly treating her so well...

When she walked out of the bathroom, she saw that Aron was still trying to persuade Wanda to sleep in the next room. Martha intended to take his place after she had gotten ready.

But... all her old cosmetics and skin care products had disappeared.

They had been replaced by skin care products of various luxurious brands. Each set of products cost roughly around ten thousand...

Apart from those, there were all sorts of essence, masks, night cream, day cream and so on. 'These are too expensive.

All of these would cost at least tens of thousands in total,' she mused.

She quickly put on her pajamas, and walked to next room. Angela was reading a bedtime story for the three kids. Angela smiled at Martha when she saw her come in and then continued to read the kids the story.

Aron sat near their daughter's bed, looking at her gently.

Martha walked up to him, and then pulled his shirt as she asked, "Are these skin care products..."

"Yes, I asked my assistant to buy them for you." In fact, Aron had gone to the shopping mall himself and had selected those for her. Then, he asked his assistant to deliver the products to his house. He had thrown away the packaging of the products because he was afraid that she wouldn't want to use them once she'd know their prices.

"They are too expensive..." Martha had lived a well-off life before her father's company met its crisis.

Apart from that, her father had married another woman, and she had become a frugal person ever since.

Aron patted Wanda's head gently, and said in a soft tone, "My sweetheart, have a good sleep. Sweet dreams." "Good night, mom and dad!"

Aron and Martha left the room. They returned to their bedroom, and closed the door. Aron walked to the dresser, and opened one bottle of toner. He said, "Aren't you gonna use it? Now that you don't like it, I have to pour it out."

Then, as he was about to walk towards the bathroom with the toner, Martha quickly stopped him and said, "I... like it. I'll use it now."

Aron smiled softly and put his arms around her waist. Then he told her seriously without a smile on his face, "Look at Angela and Lulu. They take care of themselves so well. Women should pay more attention to their appearance and try to maintain their beauty. In this way, their husbands won't cheat on them. Do you understand me?"

Martha stared blankly at him. She nodded and replied, "I see."

"You don't need to worry about the money. If you don't replace it troublesome, you can directly access my money anytime..."

Martha shook her head and said resolutely, "No, I'd better not... It's not convenient for you. You should keep these cards with you."

Aron tidied her hair around her ear, and said, "You don't have to worry about your father's living expenses anymore. I'll give you one million monthly for your living expenses. If you haven't run out of the money, you can save the rest."

'He knew about my father... I used to receive fifty thousand monthly as my living expenses from Aron. But since dad needed the money more, I would give all the money to him,' she thought.

Martha couldn't resist her curiosity, so she asked, "Aron, why are you suddenly treating me so well?"

She was 30, so she tended to think about matters in a more practical way.

'A man will not treat a woman so well, unless... he loves her.'

"Because you're my wife." 'Perhaps I need to learn from Arvin. I need to treat my wife as well as I can until she starts to love me, 'Aron thought to himself.

New Year's Day

At around seven o'clock in the morning, the twins knocked at Angela's bedroom door. They said, "Dad, mom, we're coming in!"

Angela moved closer to Arvin's arms. She held his waist tightly, and then proceeded to sleep.

Arvin opened his eyes, and kissed her forehead. He said gently, "My sweetheart, Happy New Year!"

Angela was half awake. She answered with a yes and then fell asleep again.

The twins standing outside the door had been shouting for a while, but they received no response. Sherman knocked on the door harder and cried, "Dad, mom. It's time to get up. It's already too late." While in fact, it was still just a few minutes before 6:50 am...

Wanda had just woken up. Teresa took her as they walked out of the children's room. She quickly found the twins and tried to take them away. She said, "Your dad and mom are still sleeping. Now be good boys and come with me. I'll take you to the bathroom to wash your face and brush your teeth."

Sherman insisted on staying there, as he shouted, "No, I don't want to leave. Dad, get out!"

Arvin had to get up to stop the children from shouting. He tucked Angela in, and then put on his pajamas. He opened the door, and said to them, "What's up? Don't you know that your mom is still sleeping?" Sherman and Sherwood immediately ran to Arvin as soon they saw him. They stooped politely and said, "Dad, Happy New Year!"

Wanda got rid of her grandmother's hand and ran to Arvin. She stooped as well and said, "Uncle, Happy New Year!"

Arvin nodded and said, "Happy New Year!" He then walked back to the room and took out several red pockets he had prepared in advance.

The twins' eyes sparkled when they saw the red pockets. Sherman pretended to be calm and asked, "Dad, are you going to give us these red pockets?"

Arvin got a glimpse of Sherman, and said, "Is that how you ask for a red pocket?"

Sherman and Sherwood stood straight instantly and bowed again. They said in chorus, "Dad, Happy New Year. We hope that you and mom will always live a happy life."

The twins were just about two years old. They couldn't have thought of those words by themselves.

Their aunt Lulu had taught them to say those words. She told them that as long as they wished for their dad and mom to live a happy life in front of their dad, he would be glad to give them the handsome red pockets.

Arvin gave the twins each a red pocket, and one to Wanda.

But the twins still stood there and didn't move. Arvin stared at them in confusion.

The twins looked at each other. Then Sherwood said, "Dad, I wish you well."

Arvin smiled slightly, and then gave Sherwood another red pocket.

Sherman followed immediately, "Dad, I wish for you to have a promising life!"

Wanda said, "Uncle, I wish you... I wish you..." What did aunt teach me?' Wanda wondered. After thinking about it for a while and with the help of Teresa's hint, Wanda finally remembered. She said, "Young!" Arvin burst into laughter when he heard that. Soon, the servants and Teresa were all amused by the three kids.

Arvin had prepared many red pockets because he knew that there were many children in the house. Then, he grabbed several thick red pockets and gave them to Wanda.

Sherwood started immediately, "Dad, I wish you safety!"

Sherman followed, "Healthy!"

Wanda said, "Ha... Ha... Ha..." Happy."

Sherwood said, "Successful!"

Sherman said, "Wealthy!"

Wanda stuttered, "Lu... Lu... After pausing for a while, she still couldn't remember how to pronounce the word. She looked at Arvin and began to wail.

Arvin squatted down and consoled her, "Don't cry, sweetheart. I believe that you can do it. Think about it carefully and then tell me." He looked at her tenderly. The little girl was very smart; besides, she had been previously taught what to say. She stopped crying and said, "Luck."

She laughed joyfully when she received two thick red pockets from Arvin. [0
