Every Breath You Take

At noon, Roland received a call from his friend, who insisted on inviting him to dinner. He asked Monica to come with him. It was in a private club in Jiang City. When Monica and Roland arrived, they saw

Quarmy, who was holding the hand of a beautiful woman.

With just a glance, Monica recognized that she was Mary, a beauty graduated from Jiang University.

"Mary is really beautiful. Quarmy is really lucky!" Roland smiled softly.

Monica glared at him and said, "Why aren't you after her if you like her? With your romantic character, maybe she will be with you."

"Although she's beautiful, I like you." Roland looked at Monica with a smile.

Monica glared at him, and Roland lowered his voice. "Quarmy is taking her to all kinds of occasions without any hesitation now. Is he going to break up with Madrigal?"

"How do I know?" Monica said impolitely.

"Isn't he afraid of annoying Zoe? What if Zoe gets mad at him because of this matter?"

Monica sneered. "Quarmy doesn't rely on Zoe to run the company. What's there to be afraid of?"

"That's true, but people won't go against officials. It's not a good thing for him to annoy Zoe."

"Why do you care about him?" Monica was impatient. She really felt uncomfortable. Looking at Quarmy and Mary, she thought that a few days ago, he came to her for explaining. Fortunately, she didn't choose to believe him, otherwise...

Quarmy looked at Monica and Roland whispering to each other, feeling really uncomfortable. He held back the discomfort in his heart and entered the club with Mary first.

Roland led Monica to wander around for a while before entering the private room. The private room was full of his acquaintances. Monica only knew a few of them. Quarmy and Mary sat by the window. When Roland and Monica came in, Quarmy glanced at them with no expression and continued to talk with Mary.

Seeing Roland come in with Monica, someone immediately teased him. "Mr. Wang, have you had a new girlfriend?"

Roland stared at him and said, "Dude, be polite. This is your sister-in-law!"

"Sister-in-law?" Roland's words attracted everyone's attention. Quarmy was holding a cup and drinking tea with a smile on his face, but his eyes darkened when he heard that. Roland was serious? "She is really beautiful. You are so lucky!" Someone praised.

"Of course. The woman I like must be good-looking and talented." Roland was very proud.

Monica glared at him, who then pulled out the chair for her. "Dear, sit down!"

It made Monica get goosebumps all over her body. Everyone burst into laughter. "Mr. Wang is always so considerate and gentle to women."

Roland patted the speaker and said, "Are you embarrassing me deliberately? I'm telling you, from now on, I'll only be gentle and considerate to one woman."

While talking, he looked at Monica, but Monica ignored him. The people next to him laughed. "Mr. Wang, even my sister-in-law doesn't believe what you said, let alone others."

"Time tells."

"I only know that a man can't change his nature." A man interrupted. Roland stared at the man and said, "We'll see."

"I'm so scared. Sister-in-law, I was just joking. Mr. Wang is gentle and faithful. He's only good for you. You mustn't kick him out of bed because of my joke tonight."

Hearing this, the audience burst into laughter. Roland gave the man a punch and said, "Hey, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute."

"Mr. Wang, please spare me! I'm just telling the truth!" Looking at them, Monica couldn't help laughing.

Quarmy looked at her smile and felt upset. He picked up a shrimp for Mary beside him. Seeing his action, Monica sneered in her heart. She also picked up the food for Roland. Roland was so excited that his eyebrows were dancing.

He immediately ate the food Monica picked up for him and smacked his lips. "Delicious!"

Quarmy's eyes flashed a hint of gloom. A person next to Roland happily suggested, "Since our sister-in-law is here, why don't you have a drink with her?"

"Yes, yes." Someone immediately echoed, "Cross-cupped wine! Come on!"

The person who proposed immediately filled the glasses with wine and placed them in front of Monica and Roland. Roland picked up his glass and said, "Dear, since we're all happy, you'd better not let them down."

Quarmy stopped eating and looked at Monica and Roland coldly.

Monica didn't want to cooperate at first, but when she saw Quarmy's eyes, she suddenly got angry. It was just a trick on the table. What was she afraid of? So she picked up the glass and drank cross-cupped wine with Roland.

Seeing that, everyone cheered. Immediately, someone raised his glass to Monica. "Nice to meet you, Sister-in-law!"

Roland stopped him. "Dude, stop it. Since you come here to propose a toast, you have to toast all the ladies here. Right?"

Everyone echoed. Louis did not expect Roland to say that, so he had to toast to all the ladies one by one. When he came to Mary, Quarmy reached out his hand to stop him. "Mary can't drink. I'll drink it on her behalf!"

"She can't drink?" Louis was stunned and immediately smiled evilly. "Could it be that she is pregnant?"

All the people looked at Mary and Quarmy. "Congratulations, Mr. Huo!" Quarmy did not explain and raised his glass to Louis.

Mary smiled gently, but Monica sneered in her heart. If it was true, there would be a good show.

Seeing Quarmy drink a glass of wine, Louis filled his cup again. "You can't drink only one cup on behalf of her. You have to drink three cups in a row!"

Quarmy had a bad stomach. Mary looked anxious and said, "He can't drink. Mr. Liu, don't make things difficult for him."

"No, he can't break the rules." Louis insisted. Monica sneered as if she was watching a good show. Feeling Monica's indifference, Quarmy raised his glass to drink it up.

Seeing Quarmy's face hadn't changed after drinking three glasses of wine, Monica sneered. He deserved that. She said with a smile, "Since Mr. Huo is going to be a father, everyone should toast him."

As soon as she said that, Quarmy looked at her. She knew that he had a bad stomach. Thinking of the soups that she used to make for him, he felt bitter in his heart and naturally wore a bitter smile on his face Monica's proposal was immediately echoed by some people. "Yes, Mr. Huo, it's a good thing. We have to toast for you!"

Roland smiled and whispered to Monica, "Are you trying to vent your anger on your illegitimate sister?"

Monica smiled and picked up a piece of fruit and put it in Roland's mouth. Quarmy saw this scene and his heart was bleeding. Without caring about anything else, he picked up the bottle and began to pour the wine. Mary was anxious. "Let him go, everyone. He has a bad stomach, he can't drink so much wine."

"It's fine. Mr. Huo is happy. It isn't a big deal." Roland interrupted.

Quarmy looked at Roland with sarcasm and said nothing. He raised his head and drank a glass of wine. "Mr. Huo, awesome!" Someone immediately filled his glass. Quarmy drank several cups of strong wine and immediately came to Roland and Monica.

Monica smiled very gently. "I'll pour wine for Mr. Huo!"

"Thank you, Miss Mo." Quarmy's eyes and brows did not move at all.

Instead of using the small glasses on the table, Monica grabbed a goblet for drinking red wine. Seeing her movements, Mary gasped.

Monica filled the goblet with wine, and then filled the glass of herself. "Congratulations, Mr. Huo!"

Quarmy looked at the goblet in front of him and calmly picked it up. "Thank you, Miss Mo!" He raised his head and drank it.

Roland frowned slightly. At first, he thought Monica was standing up for Madrigal, but then he thought it was wrong. Monica hated Madrigal and Yale to the bone. How could she stand up for them? Monica was not such a person who liked to make trouble. What was wrong with her?

Seeing Quarmy finish drinking, Monica smiled, "Roland, propose a toast to Mr. Huo." Then, she poured wine into the goblet in front of Quarmy Monica didn't think that she was a cruel person, and this night she didn't feel that she was cruel at all. When she looked at Quarmy and Mary, she couldn't help feeling sad in her heart.

Mary was pregnant! She remembered that Quarmy came to her a few days ago and said that he wanted to make it up for her. Although she refused him at that time, she remembered every word he said. How could this man be so shameless! He said that he regretted and wanted to make it up for her, but he had a child with his lover? Looking at Quarmy's care for Mary, her hatred grew. Looking at the goblet in front of Quarmy was filled with wine again by Monica, Mary's eyes were filled with horror again. "He really has a stomach disease. He can't drink anymore!" However, Monica ignores her. "Roland, you'd better drink it first!"

Although Roland vaguely felt that something was wrong, he still drank it and showed Quarmy the bottom of his glass.

Quarmy did not say anything but raised his glass to drink the wine. "Mr. Huo, you have a good capacity for liquor!"

Next, Quarmy drank a few more with others, and then stopped drinking. After that, Quarmy's face was still the same as usual.

Someone sighed, "It's said that Mr. Huo can't drink. I didn't expect that he's so good at drinking!" Quarmy smiled faintly and said, "Everyone, excuse me."

Looking at his staggering steps, Monica knew that he must have drunk too much and gone to the bathroom to vomit. It was her idea to let him drink, but when she saw him hurrying to the bathroom, she didn't feel happy. Instead, her heart was in pain.

Quarmy left, and others turned their eyes to Roland and Monica. "The first good thing today is about Mr. Huo, and the second is about you guys. Now it's your turn."

Roland was happy. "No problem. I'm happy today. I'll accompany you all the way to the end!"

As soon as he said that, someone immediately clapped his hands in agreement.

Roland was really in a good mood and good at drinking. He started to compete with others for drinking. Monica glanced at the door. Quarmy had not come back yet. While she was thinking, Mary went out. Seeing that, Monica was laughing at herself in her heart. Even if he died of drunkenness, it had nothing to do with her. What was she worried about?

Looking at Roland who was drinking with others one by one, she reached out her hand to stop him. "You can't drink anymore!"

"I'm happy!" Roland took the opportunity to hold her hand and looked at her with his beautiful eyes full of affection. "Moni, I'm happier than ever!"

"Yes, Mr. Wang is happy. Sister-in-law, don't stop him!" "No, drinking like this will hurt his stomach." Monica insisted. Quarmy had hurt his stomach because of drinking. She didn't want to see Roland become another Quarmy.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. As expected, you only care about your man. Just now, you were so cruel to Mr. Huo. What a difference!"

While speaking, Quarmy and Mary appeared at the door. Looking at Roland's hand and Monica's, Quarmy's pale face turned even paler.

After a while, the banquet was over. Roland held Monica's waist and walked out of the hotel. "Moni, I'm very happy tonight."

"What's there to be happy about?" Monica snorted. "Roland, I did it for you today. I won't do it again!"

"No! Why not? It's great to be like this every day." Roland was acting like a spoiled child. Monica smiled and said, "You always push your luck."

Roland was a little drunk. Monica sent him home and received a phone call from Summer on her way home. "Moni, I'm sick and I'm in the hospital. It's so boring. Can you come and accompany me?"

"I'll be right there," Monica asked the taxi driver to turn around and go to the hospital.

Summer got bronchitis from a bad cold. When Monica arrived, she was on an I.V. drip and playing with her mobile phone. "Why are you still playing with your phone?"

"Aren't I bored? It's good that you're here." Summer put down her phone and began to chat with Monica. Then she mentioned Quarmy. "He can't change his nature. He actually has a mistress again. I don't know how Madrigal feels when she sees the news."

Monica smiled and said, "There's something more exciting. Quarmy's mistress seems to be pregnant." She told Summer what had happened this night.

Summer laughed. "You nailed it. He must be lying in the hospital after drinking so much wine, right?"

"More or less," Monica answered.

Summer said that she was hungry. Monica went to buy her a midnight snack, only to see Mary in the hospital's hall. When Mary saw Monica, she was stunned and then walked over with a smile. "Miss Mo, are you here to visit a patient?"

Monica didn't want to talk to her, so she nodded and left. Mary's voice came from behind. "Quarmy drank too much and was also injected in the hospital. He is in the advanced ward on the 8th floor." Monica ignored her and strode away. She felt was a little strange when she walked outside. This Mary was really funny. What did it matter to her that Quarmy was hospitalized? She even told her the ward number. Did she think that she came to see Quarmy?

Wait, why did she think that she came to see Quarmy? Did she know her relationship with Quarmy? There were very few people who knew that in Jiang City. Since Quarmy was willing to tell this, she must be very important to him.

She felt a little uncomfortable, so she endured the discomfort and went out to buy a midnight snack for Summer. After finishing her midnight snack, Summer chatted with her for a while. After that, Coco called her. "Mom, why haven't you come back yet?"

Summer smiled. "I almost forgot that there's a little boy in your family. Well, I'm fine now. Go back and accompany your son. Remember to send breakfast for me tomorrow morning."

Monica agreed with a smile.

The next morning, Monica went to the hospital with breakfast for Summer. Looking at the tremella soup, Summer frowned and said, "I thought you would prepare a feast for me." "When you're better, you can have a feast. This is good for your bronchitis."

"Well, fine. But as you said, when I'm better, you must treat me with a big meal. I drooled when I thought of the spicy chicken you made."

"Seriously?" Monica glared at her. "When you are better, I'll make it for you every day."

"You can't go back on your words."

When they were talking, Monica's cell phone rang. "Miss Mo, I am Mary. I have something to say to you."

"Miss Tian, I'm not free now." Monica refused.

"I saw you in the hospital. I'm also in the hospital." Mary said frankly, "Why don't I come to you?"

"Don't do that. Where are you?"

"Who is it?" Seeing Monica hanging up the phone, Summer asked curiously.

"Quarmy's mistress." "What is she looking for you for?"

"I don't know. I'll come back later!"

Monica went to the cafe that Mary said. Mary was sitting by the window, and her beautiful face was full of exhaustion. Monica walked over and asked, "Miss Tian, what can I do for you?" Mary looked up and there was hostility in her eyes. Monica was surprised. She and Mary had never had a grudge against each other. Why was she so hostile to herself? "Miss Mo, why did you treat Quarmy like this?"

Monica's face suddenly turned cold. "I don't understand what you are talking about!"

"Monica, Quarmy was sorry for you. He shouldn't have had a child with others, but he didn't want to do that. He did this for you and the family. Now he has regretted it. Why did you target him?" "Miss Tian, it's okay for you to defend your lover, but what right do you have to blame me?" Monica said without any mercy. "It's really funny. A mistress came to blame me. What right do you have to do that?" "Monica, I know I'm just an outsider. But why did you let Quarmy drink so much wine? You know that he has stomach problems. How can you be so cruel? Do you know that he had a stomach hemorrhage last night?"

"Miss Tian, you must have made a mistake. He drank because you are pregnant. What does it have to do with me?"

Monica's heart sank, but there was a sneer on her face. "I hate the mistress the most in my life, so as a mistress, you should know your identity. Please stay away from me in the future. After all, we are not familiar with each other."

"Monica, how can you do this?!" There was a fire on Mary's eyes. "I tell you, I'm not a mistress!"

"Don't you know that Quarmy has a girlfriend and he's going to get engaged soon? You're carrying his child. If you are not a mistress, who else can you be?"

"I'm not pregnant!" Mary explained. "I just have an alcohol allergy and can't drink. Our relationship is not what you think..."

"Mary!" A voice suddenly sounded. Monica looked at Quarmy who stood there with a pale face.

"Aren't you on an I.V. drip? Why are you here?" Mary stood up immediately and walked to Quarmy with a worried look on her face.

Quarmy did not answer but looked at Monica. "If Mary said something that she shouldn't have said to you, I apologize to you on her behalf."

He really doted on Mary. Monica felt a little sad. She sneered and said, "No need. Please take care of your woman, Mr. Huo. Don't disturb others for no reason."

"Okay!" Quarmy's eyes darkened, but Monica had already got up and walked to the door.

Seeing her walking away, Quarmy looked at Mary with a serious face and sharp eyes. "Who let you come to her?"

"I was angry. How could she misunderstand you like this?" Mary explained.

Quarmy frowned, but he didn't speak. He turned around and walked to the hospital. He was in a hurry and staggered. Mary immediately followed him to help him. When they returned to the ward, the doctor was a little anxious. "Where were you going? How could you pull out the needle on your own?"

The doctor immediately helped Quarmy to retransfuse. Before he left, he ordered, "Don't pull out the needle again."

After the doctor left, Mary apologized timidly. "I didn't mean it. She let you drink so much wine to hurt your body. I was so angry that I went to her."

Quarmy looked at Mary coldly. "You can go now."

"Don't drive me away. I won't make my own decision in the future!"

Quarmy sneered, "I say, you can go now!"

Mary's eyes were full of tears. "I was wrong. Please forgive me for this time."

Quarmy looked at her tearful face and frowned slightly. Finally, he agreed. "Fine. Stay out of my business. Just do what you have to do. Understand?"

"Yes!" Mary wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. "I won't disturb Monica again. But next time, you can't drink so much wine because of anger. Your body is the most important. If you are sick, how can

you get her back?"

Quarmy slightly answered with his eyes closed. Last night, he saw Monica and Roland flirting with each other in public. Although he had been reminding himself not to be jealous, he couldn't control himself. The wine was to punish himself, so he drank it one by one. She just stood there and looked at him coldly, showing no intention of stopping him.

In the end, he felt as uncomfortable as if there were a fire burning in his stomach. He couldn't bear it and went to the bathroom. He vomited in the bathroom with great pain, but the pain in his heart didn't decrease at all. Later, Mary came out to find him and helped him back. He saw that Monica was on Roland's side without caring about himself at all.

He forced himself to hold on until the end so that he couldn't hold on any longer after leaving the restaurant.

Monica was really cruel! He never knew that she was such a cruel person! Thinking of how nice she used to be towards himself, his heart started to hurt again. He sighed deeply and said, "This is what I owe her. How painful she used to be, how painful I should be."

Mary wiped her tears. "I think she was angry because she misunderstood our relationship. That's also why she let you drink so much. Why don't we make it clear to her?"

"No!" Quarmy shook his head. "I have to cancel the engagement with Madrigal first, and then I can go to find her."

Jenny, who was about to open up the door of the ward, heard the conversation inside and became worried. She let go of the door handle and turned to the doctor's office. Last night, Quarmy didn't go home so Jenny was anxious. It took her a long time to know his whereabouts and she came to the hospital in a hurry.

But she didn't expect to hear the conversation between her son and Mary at the door. It turned out that the relationship between them was made up. Everything Quarmy did was for that woman.

She was very clear in her heart. Since her son liked acting, she would help him. Jenny went to the doctor's office to inquire about Quarmy's situation. It was said that his stomach was bleeding because of drinking too much. Based on the conversation she just heard, her hatred for Monica increased a little.

It was time to teach her a lesson!
