Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 11 Wish To Marry Abigail

Annalise was even more perplexed. “What’s going on? What’s with this sudden and drastic change?” she wondered.

“Your medical skills must be outstanding, aren’t they?” Samuel asked.

When she heard this, Annalise cocked her head to the side and cast him a look of confusion.

“His train of thought is so haphazard. One moment, he was talking about kneeling, then he immediately talked about medical skills the next,” she pondered.

“The technique you used when hitting my back was precise and focused. It’s just like how they say that bold. execution comes from superb skills. Anyone could tell that your medical skills are outstanding.” Samuel said.

“I wouldn’t say that. I just happen to have some experience dealing with choking,” Annalise replied. “Good. Very good. That’s what I want to hear!” Samuel praised her.

Upon hearing this, Annalise was even more puzzled. “Why is he praising me again?” she questioned inwardly. Samuel then continued, “Kid, you must remember that no one truly wishes you well in this world.” Annalise’s chest tightened at this. She was very familiar with that saying. Her five mentors had always told her this since she was young.

Back when she was younger, she thought that her mentors nagged too much, but after she grew up, she gradually developed a deeper understanding of that statement.

Those words were indeed true. If even her uncle’s family, who was related to her by blood, didn’t want her to live an easy life, then why would anyone else wish her well?

Samuel then went on, “Hence, you should know how to conceal your true strengths at all times, unless you’re very powerful, or you have to learn how to hide your strengths. That’s the only way that you can protect yourself. I apologize for criticizing you just now. The reason why I kept reprimanding you wasn’t that I genuinely wanted to. It was just that I didn’t want the Barton family to pick on you. You must remember words. For incompetent people, the worst that could happen is that others would look down upon them. But for those who are too outstanding, many would want them to disappear.”

After Annalise heard this, she was stunned. She looked up at Samuel.

It was only then that she knew he only criticized her just now to protect her. He was just worried that the Bartons would pick on her for getting in their way.
