Every Breath You Take

Chapter 110

At dawn, Quarmy opened his eyes from deep sleep. Monica was still sleeping. He distressedly hugged

her and kissed her forehead. "Moni, I'm sorry!"

He knew how crazy he was last night, but he couldn't control himself at all. In the car, he could still hold

on. But when he returned home and saw Monica, he rushed to her like a hungry wolf.

He had sex with her on the sofa, and the burning fire in his body finally went out a little bit. He hugged

her and apologized. Regardless of her unwillingness, he took her back to the bedroom. He wanted to

bathe her, but in just a few minutes, he was turned on again, so he had sex with her again.

He heard Monica begging him to stop, but he could not control himself.

Monica's body was full of traces. Quarmy reached out his hand to gently touch the kiss marks on her

neck. His eyes were dark. Did his mother want to force him to leave the Huo Family?

He was not an unfilial person, and he despised unfilial people.. He always thought that if he could not

treat his parents well, he'd lose the right to be a human being.

He knew that his mother had suffered a lot for him, so he tolerated his mother to challenge his bottom

line again and again. But this time, he was really disappointed.

How could she do such a shameless thing? He was very filial, but not stupid. His mother went too far

this time, and he would not let it go.

Madrigal was not innocent, either. He had always thought that she was kind, but what happened last

night disappointed him. Didn't she want him and Monica to be together? Why did she still want to

seduce him?

No matter what, Madrigal knew clearly that he loved Monica and he couldn't bear to leave Monica.

Therefore, her behavior was unforgivable. She must not be as kind as she appeared.

In the past, he even felt guilty for her. He was really too naive. Quarmy was very glad that he didn't fall

into the trap. Otherwise, he could never be with Monica again.

Monica in his arms moved and opened her eyes. "Moni, you're awake!1' Quarmy's eyes were full of

guilt.

Monica felt very painful all over. "Quarmy, were you crazy last night?"

"Moni, I'm sorry!" Quarmy apologized.

Monica wanted to scold him, but when she saw the wounds on his skin, she gave up. Last night,

Quarmy was as crazy as a wolf. She was so painful that she gasped and scratched him. His body was

covered with scratch marks, and his face was also injured. Therefore, Monica couldn't bear to scold

him. "What happened last night?"

Quarmy sighed. "I drank too much. I'm sorry!" If he told her his mother's plan, Monica might despise his

mother.

He finally understood why Monica refused to tell him about her relationship with Zoe. For Monica, it

was a shame to have such a father as Zoe.

Last night, Quarmy did come back with the smell of alcohol, and he seemed to be a bit unconscious.

Although Monica wondered why he was so drunk, she wouldn't think that it was caused by Jenny.

Monica believed his explanation. "You should drink less. You have a bad stomach."

Her concern made Quarmy almost burst into tears. He hugged her tightly and said, "Don't worry, I won't

drink so much in the future."

"Quarmy, be gentle. You hurt me." He hugged her so hard that she couldn't help complaining.

"I'm sorry! I'm too excited!" Quarmy quickly let go of her and lowered his head to kiss her. "Are you

hungry? I'm going to make breakfast for you."

"Forget it, let me do it." Monica got up. Quarmy suspected that he had heard it wrong. He looked at her

dazedly. She glared at him and said, "What, are you surprised?"

"I'm not surprised, I'm touched!" Indeed, this is the first time Monica had offered to make breakfast

since she moved in. Before that, she refused to do it at the excuse of not knowing how to cook. Did it

mean that she was ready to accept him again?

When Zoe came back from morning training, he saw Madrigal sitting on the sofa. Seeing him come

back, Madrigal smiled and said, "Dad, morning!"

Zoe nodded and sat down beside her. Madrigal said apologetically, "Dad, I'm sorry! I drank too much

last night! I won't do it next time!"

"Really?" Zoe asked with no warmth in his eyes. "Yes." Madrigal replied, "Dad, I was wrong. Please

forgive me!"

Zoe didn't say anything. Madrigal added, "Dad, my sister hasn't been home for a long time. I miss her.

Why don't I ask Lassie to buy her favorite food? I want to invite my sister and brother-in-law here for

dinner."

The word "brother- in- law" made Zoe surprised. Seeing her natural expression, he nodded slightly.

Madrigal knew that he agreed. Her mother was right. In Zoe's heart, Monica was his sweetheart while

she was nothing. Madrigal was angry, but she didn't show it on her face. "I'll call her now!"

Seeing that, Zoe stopped her. "Forget it, Moni doesn't like you. I'll call her!"

Quarmy went to the company after breakfast. Noah was very surprised to see him. "Why don't you rest

at home?"

"The bidding is about to begin. I'm not at ease."

"There's no problem with the bid document. What matters is the design, but we can do nothing about it.

I just got a message..." Suddenly, Noah glanced at Quarmy and saw the scar on his face. He suddenly

stopped the topic and asked cautiously, "Is it left by Madam?"

Quarmy sat down and nodded. "What message?"

Seeing that Quarmy was not unhappy, Noah was relieved. "It's about Mayor Jane. He seems to be in

trouble."

"Is this about the suspension?"

"Not. It has something to do with Terry, the boss of TD Group."

Quarmy frowned. This couldn't be a small thing. Was Zoe really going down this time?

While he was thinking, his phone rang. It was from Zoe. Zoe asked Monica and him to go back to the

Jane family. Quarmy wanted to talk to Zoe about Madrigal's matter, so he agreed without hesitation.

Zoe hung up the phone and called Monica. Monica's voice was cold. "Mayor Jane, you're out of the

hospital?"

Zoe did not care about her attitude. "Moni, come back with Quarmy for dinner tonight."

"Mayor Jane, do you really want to see Quarmy?" Monica asked.

Zoe laughed dryly. "Moni, I'm glad that you and Quarmy can get back together. I've always wanted you

to live a good life! At that time, I made wrong decision, but I never thought about hurting you!"

"Stop! I don't want to mention this anymore." Monica interrupted him. Zoe could say these nonsense

naturally, which made her feel uncomfortable. "Mayor Jane, you are a magnanimous official. But your C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

mistress and illegitimate daughter are ordinary people. Are you sure they want to see us?"

"They know who they are." Zoe answered.

Well said! Since Zoe pretended to be sick last time, Monica had no longer believed him. Her intuition

told her that Zoe asked her to go back for a reason. However, no matter what plans he had, she didn't

care. She just needed to indifferently enjoy the Jane family's acting. No matter what, she would not be

deceived by Zoe again. Quarmy and Monica came to the Jane family at six o'clock in the evening.

When hearing the sound of the car, Lancy came out. Then, Zoe, Yale and Madrigal all came out.

As Monica expected, everyone had smiles on their faces. Monica deliberately paid more attention to

Yale and Madrigal's expression. Monica secretly admired their acting in her heart. How could they still

smile at this time? They were really good at acting.

Quarmy opened the trunk and took out a lot of gifts. Zoe took them with a smile and said, "Don't do this

next time!"

"That's what I should do!" Quarmy answered with a smile. He continued to take gifts out of the car. The

number of gifts was more than double what he had brought before.

Madrigal looked at the smile on Quarmy's face and felt a sharp pain in her heart. This was the real

Quarmy. Even his eyes were also smiling. She had never seen him so happy before.

She had loved him for so many years and spent nine years trying to get him. But what did she get in

the end? Except for humiliation and tears, she got nothing. Madrigal really hated him. Her mother was

right. She was too stupid. It was not worth loving only one person and willing to be his vassal. From

now on, she would never be stupid again.

Yale poked Madrigal. When Madrigal came to her senses, she found that her mother, Zoe, and even

Lancy all had gifts in their hands. Monica had been looking at Madrigal with a sneer. Although Madrigal

was smiling, Monica could tell that she was obviously absent- minded. Madrigal was not as good at

acting as Yale. It was already very good for Madrigal to be able to keep calm.

Monica thought that Madrigal was really awesome. If she encountered such a thing, she wouldn't be as

calm as Madrigal. Seeing Yale reach out to poke Madrigal, Monica's sneer became deeper. She

glanced at Zoe. She didn't know if he saw their movements, or whether he really knew Yale and

Madrigal.

When Quarmy got the last gift from the car, Madrigal came to her senses and reached out her hand.

"Brother-in-law, give it to me!"

Monica was even more impressed by Madrigal's words. She could see the unwillingness in Madrigal's

eyes, but Madrigal took the lead to call Quarmy "brother-in-law" in public.

It meant that Madrigal admitted the relationship between Monica and Quarmy. It was not a easy

change. Not only Monica, but also Yale and Zoe were surprised. Yale was very gratified. Her daughter

was really not an ordinary person. She knew that Madrigal had changed her mind. As long as Madrigal

no longer wanted to be Quarmy's subsidiary, her life would be controlled by herself. What she wanted

would be easy to get.

Zoe glanced at Madrigal faintly. Madrigal had always been gentle, kind and sensible. But this was not

what he liked. He liked Monica more, who was simple and unaffected. Zoe had been in the officialdom

for many years. Although he hoped that his youngest daughter would know her position clearly, he had

a hint of alarm in his heart. Madrigal's change was too shocking. She was either enlightened or acting.

Quarmy was also surprised. A person who was ready to sleep with him last night suddenly called him

brother- in- law today. How strange it was! Madrigal was really awesome!

"Let's talk inside!" Everyone came into the house. Zoe and Yale sat on the sofa, Monica and Quarmy

sat together, and Madrigal sat alone in a separate position.

This scene made Monica feel very strange. After thinking about it carefully, she remembered that the

person who used to sit alone on the sofa was herself.

Zoe was talking to Quarmy. Everyone acted as if nothing had happened. Monica felt that it was really

ironic. All of them were brilliant actors.

Lancy told them that dinner was ready. The atmosphere was very good. Madrigal actually picked up

food for Monica and Quarmy, so did Yale. Monica felt disgusted when she saw it.

At first, she tried to endure it, but in the end, she failed. When Yale wanted to pick up food for her, she

refused it. Seeing Monica's disgusted look, Zoe stopped Yale. "We're a family. Don't be so polite! Let

them do it themselves!"

On the surface, it was a happy dinner. But in fact, they all knew it was not the case.

After dinner, Zoe went to the study with Quarmy. As soon as Zoe closed the door, his smile

disappeared. He said in a bad tone, "Quarmy! You really impress me! What's so great about you? My

two daughters... Both of them are so excellent. Why do they fall in love with you... Sigh... This matter is

shameful!"

Zoe was still smiling when he was having dinner. He changed his face so quickly that Quarmy was

really impressed. Zoe did deserve to be an official, because he was such a hypocrite.

However, didn't Zoe order Madrigal to do those things? What was the pointing of saying it now?

Quarmy finally understood why Monica hated Zoe so much. He said lightly, "I'm very sorry. It's my

mother's fault. If it weren't for my mother's eagerness to have a grandson, such a thing wouldn't have

happened."

"Yes, if your mother hadn't treated Moni like that, things wouldn't have become like this. It's all your

mother's fault." Zoe echoed.

As soon as Zoe said that, Quarmy smiled faintly. "My mom is selfish and snobbish, but you and Madam

Jane are not innocent, either."

Zoe's face turned red. He didn't expect Quarmy to say these words without mercy, so he smiled and

said, "I did it for Moni. I was insane at that time... But it is useless to regret now. I want to you talk to

you about Moni and Madrigal. How are you going to deal with them now?"

"I'm here to talk about it, too." Quarmy looked at Zoe and said, "I want to break the engagement with

Madrigal and marry Moni."

Zoe knocked on the table in front of him and said nothing.

Quarmy added, "Although I am engaged to Madrigal, I didn't do anything to her. I have always been in

love with Moni. I hope you can agree!"

"Since that's the case, I can't do anything about it. As long as Moni agrees to marry you, I won't stop

you. Poor Madrigal!" Zoe sighed deeply.

Quarmy continued, "If Madrigal wants, I'll compensate her! I mean, financial compensation."

Quarmy's words surprised Zoe. He thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. As long as you and Moni

can be happy, Madrigal will be very happy."

Zoe didn't object, so Quarmy felt very relaxed.

After Zoe and Quarmy went to the study, Yale and her daughter went to the kitchen to wash fruit.

Monica knew that they didn't want to face her, and she didn't want to face them either. She went to the

living room alone and leaned on the sofa to watch TV. However, she was actually thinking about what

Zoe and Quarmy were talking about.

Monica was waiting absent-mindedly. Madrigal and her mother came over with fruit in their hands.

Madrigal put the fruit in front of Monica and said with a smile, "Sister, come on."

Monica also smiled faintly. "I am afraid of indigestion. Miss Jane, enjoy it yourself."

"Sister, I'm sorry!" Madrigal sincerely apologized. "I was wrong. Please forgive me!"

Monica smiled playfully. "Miss Jane, you are too polite." This indicated that she didn't accept Madrigal's

apology. The smile on Madrigal's face suddenly disappeared, and her big eyes stared at Monica

pitifully. "Sister, I'm serious. It's all Nee's fault. She encouraged me to smear you, and I impulsively

agreed... I didn't feel well either. After all, we are sisters who are related by blood..."

Madrigal was choked with sobs. Tears appeared on her beautiful face. Monica really admired

Madrigal's acting! If she remembered correctly, Madrigal still argued with her after smearing her, but

now she actually admitted that she was wrong. Such a big change was abnormal.

"Miss Jane, stop! I didn't bully you!" Monica stood up and stepped aside in disgust.

"Moni, your father and I have already scolded Madrigal, and she really wants to apologize. Please just

give her a chance!" Yale tried to persuade Monica.

"Sister, give me a chance!" Madrigal cried, "I won't believe Nee again. I have no relationship with her

now."

Although Madrigal was apologizing, she blamed everything on Nee. Monica was also speechless.

"Miss Jane, you really don't have to do this. The matter is over, and everyone is clear about what the

truth is. No one is a fool, do you understand?"

"Sister, are you unwilling to forgive me?" Madrigal suddenly got up and knelt down in front of Monica.

"Sister, I beg you!"

As Madrigal knelt down, the door of the study opened. Zoe and Quarmy came out. Seeing this, Zoe

frowned. "Madrigal, why are you kneeling on the ground?"

"I... I'm apologizing to my sister. If she doesn't forgive me, I... I won't get up!" Madrigal cried, looking like

she had been bullied by Monica.

Hearing this, Zoe quickly walked over. "You two are sisters! All you need is not to make mistakes

again!" Then he looked at Monica. "Madrigal is young, so it's inevitable for her to make mistakes.

Please forgive her!"

Didn't Madrigal say that she wouldn't get up if Monica didn't forgive her? Zoe wanted Monica to forgive

Madrigal, so he reached out to help her get up.

Monica smiled playfully. She didn't reach out to help Madrigal or speak. She just looked at Madrigal,

which made Madrigal feel a little scared. Then she said slowly, "Mayor Jane, do you ask me to come

back for enjoy your acting?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well, I always thought that kneeling down and begging for forgiveness was just a TV thing, but I didn't

expect to see it here." Monica stood up and said, "Mayor Jane, thank you for your dinner. Your acting is

just so-so. You'd better rehearse more and try to move me next time!"

After saying that, she turned around and left without looking at Zoe's unhappy face. Seeing that,

Quarmy said goodbye to Zoe and followed her out.

Zoe's face darkened. Monica reminded him that Madrigal was just acting. If she really wanted to

apologize, she would not chose such a bad time. He turned his head and looked at Madrigal, who was

still kneeling on the ground. "What are you still kneeling down for? Don't you think it's not shameful

enough?"

Yale quickly reached out to help her daughter up. Madrigal said with tears in her eyes, "Dad, I really

want to apologize and pray for my sister's forgiveness."

"Whether you are sincere or not, don't do such a thing in the future. We are not fools." Zoe returned to

the study after saying this.

Sitting in the car, Monica couldn't help sneering at the thought of what happened just now. Who was

Madrigal acting for? Zoe or Quarmy?

"Quarmy, don't you think I went too far?"

"Moni, no matter what, I'm on your side!" Quarmy did not know what had happened just now, but he

was sure that Monica would not force Madrigal to kneel down. They had been husband and wife for five

years, and he was very clear about what kind of person Monica was. No matter how wicked Madrigal

was, Monica would not force her to kneel down.

"My side? Quarmy, after all, Madrigal is your fiancee. Your answer will disappoint her."

"Moni, she is no longer my fiancee. Just now I have made it clear to your dad in the study. The

engagement is canceled." Quarmy reached out and held her hand. "Moni, you once said that I had to

canceled the engagement before pursuing you. Now I have no relationship with Madrigal, we can start

over again!"

Monica remembered that she had said this, but she did not say that she would start over with him.

Quarmy not only had a fiancee, but also had a troublesome mother. With Jenny around, she and

Quarmy would never be together. But now it was not the time for her to refuse. She tried to smile at

him. "Yes, we can start over!"
