Lisa's protective instinct was triggered by his wife's vulnerability about her two identities in her past and current lives. He didn't expect that his desire to see a photo of how she looked like in the past as Maria would distress her like this. He felt sorry for upsetting her but he nevertheless didn't regret this outcome.

At least he was able to discover this serious underlying issue before it continued festering in his wife's heart. Now they could start working together to address it before it was too late.

For now, however, he decided not to say anything about his idea of letting her confront her past life without trying to evade it. He instead reminded himself to discuss it with her on another day when she was calmer. It was not a good idea to agitate or stress her out during this period.

Jennie tugged his hand. "Are you still mad at me?"

He gave her a soft smile. "No."

"Sorry."

"I know, love. Don't worry about it anymore." He glanced at the scattered photos on the table. "Can I keep these?"

She didn't reply right away and thought about it for a few moments. "Okay. I printed them for you anyway. But don't show them to others, especially the photo of me with my brother. Not many people outside the Vetrovs might know about my existence but Big Brother Nikolai was—is still perhaps the most well-known Vetrov today because of his powerful charisma."

"En."

Even without her reminder, Lisa had no intention of showing these photos to other people. He was planning on framing the first solo photo of his wife and keeping it in his office's desk drawer so that he could take it out and look at it at work. He would instruct Bam first thing in the morning to have a special lock installed on one of his desk drawers.

The second photo of his wife's side profile while playing the piano would also get the same treatment. He planned on keeping it in his bedside drawer.

The third photo of his wife as a teenage girl custom-building a small laptop would also be framed and kept in his home office.

He would tell the butler to install special locks on the drawers of his bedside table and home office desk. Just imagining that he would be able to constantly look at his wife's beautiful photos of her past self on a regular basis was enough to make him happy. It might become his new method of relaxing his tired mind.

However, he still took note not to appear too passionate while looking at the photos or his wife might think that her worries were coming true after all. Inwardly sighing, he kissed the top of her head, trying to convey with his actions that he loved her no matter which face or body she was using.

As for the other two photos, he would just lock them in their hidden personal safe. He wasn't interested in looking at photos of other men daily.

He tidied up the photos and sent his wife to bed while he took a quick shower. While water rained down on him, rinsing the soapy bubbles from his body (Orchidia Beauty body wash from V's men's line, soon to be released), his mind was filled with Maria's otherworldly beauty.

The mind was a powerful thing. He was just imagining it but the image of his wife seemed to come alive. Although he never met her in her past life, he could see her talking, smiling, laughing, singing, and hacking in his mind. It was very easy for him to imagine. All he needed to do was superimpose Maria's appearance that he saw in the photos to her current self.

For him, the two identities were one and the same. He hoped that his wife could resolve the issue of her identity crisis in a similar way. He believed that there was no need to create such a distinct separation between her two identities because she was ultimately still herself deep inside no matter which body or name she was using.
