Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 1496 Identity

Amelia had offered to help Anna with the children, but Anna did not accept because she felt sorry for her.

But that does not stop a mother from loving her daughter and wanting to hold her grandchildren tighter, so Amelia comes to them almost every day and Giancarlo has to stay in the store because his mother comes to her.

Now that time has passed, the store staff are very capable and can hold their own.

In addition, the store was getting better and better, so Amelia simply hired more help and so she could concentrate on taking care of her daughter and two small grandchildren.

"It's my idea to help with that, your husband can't be foolish in that."

Although most men are the same, fathers don't do their duty as fathers, they don't hold their children as often as they should, they don't care for them well, and sometimes they are awakened at night by their children and yell at their wives, "Do you know how to raise a child or not?

After yelling, they go back to sleep, not caring how difficult it is for their wives.

This is why more and more pregnant women are prone to depression these days.

I have seen these kinds of posts on the Internet before during Anna's pregnancy. They are numerous, mostly from women complaining about their husbands not doing anything, not helping with the baby and yelling at her, and being treated as a member without income because she has to stay home because she has a baby.

She had forgotten how difficult it was for her to sleep and eat, and how she had to put the baby to bed and put him to sleep, which was already extremely stressful.

At that time, Anna thought it was better for women to have a career and a certain amount of financial means, otherwise it would be hard to tell what would happen.

Fortunately, her Matthew was different, better than she could have imagined.

With this in mind, Anna reached up and wrapped her arms around Matteo's neck, burying her head in his arms.

"Then you should come home from work earlier and get more rest."

She was afraid that Matteo's body would not be able to take it, he had heavy dark circles under his eyes lately, just like when he was always running back and forth from abroad and home to see his sister, but he never complained about being tired, he didn't even frown when he didn't feel well.

This man was really too hard on himself.

"It's okay." Matthew encircled his wife's small shoulders with one arm, made warm by his concern, a smile spread across his lips, "It's still holding, don't worry."

Anna looked up incredulously, "Why are you always like this? You were like this when we first met, and you didn't even scream until Serena came home.

You are a human being, not a robot, no need to swallow all the bitterness and pain alone. And ......" said Anna on a doubt she had pinned in her mind, "Why is there something strange about the age difference between you and Serena?"

Because when she first heard Matthew tell her about his experiences as a child, Anna was heartbroken at first, so she didn't think much about the details.

It wasn't until the next day, when talking to Serena about her age, that it occurred to her that the age difference between Serena and her brother seemed a little far off.

Not that far, but it was as if the dates did not match what Matthew had said.

But she had not had a chance to ask Matteo at the time, and since it had taken her longer to fall asleep after her pregnancy, she had not bothered to ask the question again.

It suddenly occurred to her, so Anna thought she would gossip about it.

"Did you finally get it?" Matthew reached out and gently scratched her nose with a slight smile, "I thought you didn't notice the whole time I was learning."

At the words, Anna's eyes widened, "You and Serena are ......'

"Yes." Matthew nodded, his voice soft: "She and I are actually half brother and half sister.

Same mother, different father.

Anna was still very surprised to get this answer.

"She didn't ask much afterwards and the matter was never brought up, however, our relatives were gone, she and I were the only family left in this world for each other at that time, and even though we were half-siblings, I loved her."

This Anna could see that Matthew cherished the only sister he ever had.

Thinking this, Anna solemnly said, "I will keep your secret."

"Silly girl, what kind of secret is this?

Even though we don't have the same father, she and I are still blood brother and sister."

At first, Matteo's mother was in such pain after the loss of her husband and could not take care of her son, and eventually he was brought back to the Giordano family by old Mr. Gordano.

Giordano could not bear to see her like that, so he brought in his childhood friend, who had never married after Mrs. Asia's marriage, and who was Serena's father. Seeing that she was in a state of confusion, he spent his days with her, talking to her, and trying to confront her.

At first Mrs. Asia was reluctant to accept, but then she ran away by herself and was almost hit by a car. Then she saved her but at the same time lost her sight.

After waking up from the accident at that time feeling indebted, Mrs. Asia took charge of Serena's biological father, but at that moment Serena's father felt ruined and did not want to involve her, so he let Mrs. Asia go.

Such a decision made it even more painful for Ms. Asia, and not only did she not leave him, but her childhood friend tried to force her to leave, so he said something heavy.

It probably means: either you leave or you marry me.

The words were not said to force Mrs. Asia to marry him, but to force her to leave, but to her surprise Mrs. Asia chose the option of marriage.

The marriage took place and although Serena's father lost an eye, he was given the opportunity to be by her side.

Later, Mrs. Asia became pregnant and gave birth to Serena.

Serena's father was very fond of his daughter, and naturally loved Matthew, who was also very understanding and did not push him away, and the family got along well.

It was only later that Serena disappeared and then later that Serena's biological father had a plane crash.

When she died, Serena's father believed that Mrs. Asia had never loved him and had only married him to do her duty.

He did not say it, but Mrs. Asia always knew it, until her death.

"Actually......." Matteo said, hiding his face in Anna's neck, his voice muffled, "she told me before she left me that she felt sorry for my father and that the person she felt most sorry for in her life was him. I heard it then and that's probably what it meant."

Because at first it was decided that they would be together for life, but then Ms. Asia could not help herself and fell in love with Serena's biological father.

That is why she told Matteo that she felt sorry for her biological father.
