Chapter 383
Zachary’s question left Matthew speechless for a moment.
Of course, he didn’t want to marry Sylvia, but he had to.
But Sylvia was not ugly, he thought amusedly.
Matthew’s silence gave Zach the answer he was looking for, he is now sure that his Uncle Matthew never really wanted to marry the ugly woman.
“Uncle Matthew, you’ll be miserable. If you marry that kind of woman, you wouldn’t want to have birthdays in the future.”
The kid’s innocent yet agitated face brought comfort to Matthew’s pain.
He picked up a few roses that were still intact from the ground and walked in front of Zach.
“How do you know that I’ll be miserable if I marry her?”
“Because she’s very fierce, she shouts at people and has a very bad temper. She’s not gentle like my mother, nor is she as beautiful.” Zach proudly raised his head, praising her mother.
Matthew laughed lightly. He had seen Jane before and she was undeniably beautiful, but not too attractive, in his opinion.
Because he already had his eyes on one woman, and for him, no other woman can be as beautiful as she.
“Your mommy didn’t come with you?” Matthew asked casually.
“Nope. Mommy and Aunt April are on a trip. Zach happily took the roses from Matthew.
“Aunt April?” Matthew was puzzled.
“Yeah, she is our godmother with the same surname as you, Uncle Matt. Dad said that you two are siblings.”
“Which reminds me, why didn’t Aunt April go to your engagement party?” Zach looked up at Matthew innocently, eyes curious.
Matthew was shocked. The person he had been looking for, for so long, was actually by Jane’s side all along
Drake had mentioned that April was in Silverbourne. Because of his engagement, he was only able to send someone to look for her there, but he wasn’t able to find her.
He was very angry for a long time because of this and then, his family forced him to stop looking for
her.
He was so surprised by what the kid told him, and the happiness and satisfaction he felt is immeasurable.
“Where is she?” Matthew took Zach’s hand and asked excitedly.
But then the kid is obviously smart and when he saw his Uncle Matthew’s reaction, he decided not to answer him immediately.
“Uncle Mat, why are you so excited? You two are siblings, right?”

“Just tell me where she is kid, now!” Matthew is now giddy with anticipation and did no kid’s intention.
“But Uncle Mat, you haven’t answered my question yet?” Zach pouted in disappointment.
“I lost her!” Matthew blurted and lowered his eyes, filled with sadness.
The kid quietly stared at him for a while seemingly having an inner battle, but then he finally decided to end his suffering and disclose April’s where about when Zane’s voice suddenly boomed from the distance.
“Don’t tell him!” Zane’s command interrupted Zach’s words.
Both of them looked at Zane at the same time, charging towards them with a determined face.
“Why can’t we tell Uncle Mat?” Zach was puzzled.
“Because he doesn’t deserve to know.” Zane stepped forward and looked at Matthew bravely. He was smart enough to figure out something.
Matthew looked at Zane, a little annoyed, “Stinky brat, don’t even begin thinking that just because you are Drake’s son, I won’t dare do anything to you!”
“Hmph, I’m not afraid of you.” Zane snorted coldly and pulled Zach to his side.
“We won’t tell you where our godmother is. You’re a bad person who hurt Aunt April. And now you’re even going to marry another woman. Why do you want to know where she is?” Zane talked back coldly.
Matthew was dumbfounded by what Zane said.
However, Zach could not understand Zane’s hostility towards Matthew, so he gently tugged at Zane and whispered.
“Uncle Mattew is not bad, why can’t we tell him?”
Seeing his brother’s innocence, Zane had no choice but to whisper in his ear.
After listening to Zane’s words, Zach suddenly turned hostile toward Matthew.
Matthew was even more puzzled. What did Zane say?
“Uncle Matthew, you have gone too far. I didn’t expect you to be this kind of person.”
Without a word, Zach took the rose and left with Zane.
When Matthew saw that the kids are really leaving him in a puzzle, Matthew went after them and gently grabbed them both.
“Wait you little brats, why couldn’t you just tell me?”
“Because you hurt our godmother.” Zach sadly said, pouting.
With that, he broke free from Matthew’s hand and pulled Zane away.
Matthew got nothing from the brats who were too smart for their own good so he went straight to their father, Drake.
Drake was torn between her loyalty to both his friends. He knew where April was, but he couldn’t tell Matthew

Mr Warner Your
Because if he told him, April would be furious. On the other hand, if he continued keeping quiet, Matthew will forever be worried.
Matthew is unaware of the inner battle that is currently happening inside his friend’s mind. Drake already admitted that he knew about the trip Jane and April were currently taking, however, he’s still not telling him the exact location.
“Are we still friends?” Drake did not answer for a long time and it made Matthew anxious.
Seeing that their friendship is in danger, the three kids, whose been listening to the adults” conversation, decided to make an appearance.
“Don’t force my father.”
The men looked at the three little kids who appeared at the door. Zane had already told Zoe his guess and now, the three of them decided to unite and went up front.
“You’re a bad man. You bullied and hurt our Aunt April and now you’re threatening Daddy.” Zoe stepped forward and reached out to her father and hug him.
Derek helplessly picked up his daughter and looked at his friend, silently sending him a message of how helpless he was too.
“I didn’t bully her,” Matthew explained bitterly.
He never bullied anyone in his entire life.
“Hmph; if you didn’t bully Aunt April, why does she have a big belly?”
Right, Matthew was even more confused now.
“What do you mean by having a big belly? What’s wrong with April?”
Looking at his friend who was now starting to lose his cool, Derek could only stand there in total helplessness.
“Don’t get too excited Mat, and don’t forget that you’re about to get married.”
Matthew got what Derek was trying to say, that even if he knew where April was, the two of them just couldn’t happen. He’s getting married, after all.
“Just please tell me where she is!” He begged because, at this rate, he doesn’t care about anything anymore, he just wanted to find the person he loved the most.
“And if I tell you, are you willing to give up everything for her?”
