It was morning. Quarmy opened his eyes. The person in his arms was still sleeping, which reminded him of the past. He gently put her hand outside the quilt back into the quilt. He saw the red marks on her chest. They were left by him.
He couldn't help but lower his head to kiss her face. Then he hugged her tightly and gently put his chin on her forehead. "Moni, are we really in love again?"
A kind of unspeakable happiness surrounded him. He really wanted to laugh out loud. This was the first time that he had been so happy since she left him.
After holding her for a while, Quarmy got up gently and slowly went to wash up. After washing up, he made ham sandwiches. In the past, Monica used to make different nutritious breakfast for him every day.
However, he'd make nothing but fried eggs and ham sandwiches for breakfast.. Quarmy put the bread into the oven, fried the eggs, and cut tomatoes. After a while, two sandwiches were ready.
He heated the milk and carried the sandwiches upstairs. When he pushed open the bedroom door, Monica was still asleep. He reached out to push her, but she turned over and continued to sleep.
Seeing that, he could not bear to disturb her, so he gently left. He finished eating his sandwich and called Madrigal. In the past, Quarmy felt guilty for Madrigal. Madrigal was young and beautiful. It was his mother who let her get involved in the trouble.
Later, knowing that it was Zoe and Yale's plan, he felt more sympathy for Madrigal. Especially when he heard that Madrigal might be sterile, his sympathy reached the peak. He chose to be engaged to Madrigal in desperation because he knew that Monica no longer wanted him.
On one hand, he wanted to repay Madrigal's kindness, on the other hand, he decided to give up on Monica. It had nothing to do with love. Madrigal had always been kind and gentle in front of him, so he never dreamed that Madrigal would come up with such a terrible idea to deal with Monica.
He was not a fool. He did not believe that everything was done by Nee. This incident made Quarmy know that he had made a wrong choice.
He made Monica suffer such a big blow, so he must terminate the relationship with Madrigal.
Quarmy really didn't blame Madrigal for doing such a thing. He was Madrigal's fiance, but he didn't love her. It was his fault for having a relationship with another woman behind her back.
However, Monica was innocent. Monica shouldn't have suffered such pain and insult. Quarmy was going to clarify everything and break up with Madrigal, but he didn't expect that before Noah went to do it, Monica's relationship with Madrigal was exposed. Then, Madrigal was seriously scolded. After thinking for a long time, Quarmy announced his relationship with Monica in public and also broke up with Madrigal. Now, Monica had promised to give him a chance. Quarmy was going to make it clear to Madrigal that he would continue to cure her illness, and do everything he could to compensate her, but he would no longer maintain his relationship with her.
But Madrigal refused to meet him, saying that she had to take care of Zoe.
It was true that Zoe was sick. Quarmy didn't want to push her too hard, so he hung up the phone. Seeing that there was no food at home, he drove to the supermarket.
Monica woke up from the hunger. When she opened her eyes, she found that it was already noon and Quarmy was absent. She struggled to get up from the bed and went downstairs.
Quarmy's breakfast was still on the table. Monica wolfed down the sandwich and went upstairs to take a bath.
When she came out, Quarmy came back from the supermarket. "Are you hungry? I'll go to cook now."
