Every Breath You Take novel Chapter 108

In the evening, Quarmy came back a little earlier than usual. He found that he had a lot of questions, but he didn't know how to ask Monica.

Hannah's mother had remarried to Francisco's father. Although Francisco and Monica were not related by blood, he was still Monica's uncle. Quarmy felt sad when he found that he knew little about Monica.

Before the marriage, he had asked about her family. She said that her parents died and her only relative was her uncle. Actually, it wasn't her fault that she didn't tell him more specifics. At that time every time he returned home, he only wanted to spend some time alone with her. He didn't care about what she was thinking at all. He was not good enough. No wonder she used to keep secrets from him.

Quarmy didn't know what to do. Finally, when he took a walk with Monica after dinner, he asked tentatively, "Moni, does your mother have any brothers and sisters besides your uncle?"

Monica was stunned. "No!"

From the moment she could remember, she only knew that she had an uncle. During holidays, other children would go back to their grandmothers' home with their parents. She was very envious, so she asked her mother about her grandma. Her mother told her that her grandparents were dead. Later, her mother took her back to Jiang City to pay respect to the dead, but she only saw her grandfather's grave. She once asked her mother where her grandmother's grave was, but her mother didn't answer. When she saw her mother's angry look, she didn't dare to ask again.

She had never asked about her mother's brothers or sisters. As far as she could remember, there was only one uncle, Xanjer, who used to have a bad relationship with her mother.

Her mother seldom took her back to visit her uncle, but her uncle treated her well. He often asked someone to bring her delicious food. Besides, he would often buy gifts for her.

Zoe seemed to dislike Xanjer. In her memory, Zoe had never mentioned her uncle, so she guessed that the bad relationship between Mom and Uncle should have something to do with her father.

Later, her mother died in a car accident, and her uncle Xanjer appeared in her life.

At that time, her uncle took care of her mother's funeral. Zoe was having a meeting outside. Zoe came back as soon as he knew Hannah's death. However, when Zoe arrived, her uncle had her mother cremated. It was the first time that she saw Xanjer get angry. His eyes were red and he punched and kicked Zoe. She didn't have a lot of contact with Xanjer. On the contrary, she had deep feelings for Zoe. However, when she saw Xanjer beating Zoe that day, she didn't hate Xanjer at all.

Later, Xanjer wanted to take her away, but Zoe did not allow him to do so. She remembered Zoe's vicious warning to Xanjer, "Don't push me! Or I'll expose what you did!" Later, Xanjer gave up taking her away. He told her, "I've been in the tube-shaped apartment in Jiang City. When you miss me, come to visit me. I will come to see you often in the future."

Later, Yale appeared with Madrigal. Monica finally understood why her uncle hated Zoe so much. She did not want such a shameless father, so she resolutely left Zoe and came to Xanjer.

Why did Quarmy suddenly ask her about her mother? He must have some reasons to do so. Monica asked him, "Why do you ask this?"

"Well, your mother died early. You were still young at that time. I wonder if you have other relatives..."

"Other relatives?" Monica stopped to look at Quarmy. "I've only had one uncle for as long as I can remember. I've never heard of anyone else."

"What if your mom didn't tell you?" Quarmy asked tentatively.

Monica glared at him. "What do you mean? It's a good thing that I have other relatives. Why didn't my mother tell me?"

Monica's reply made Quarmy speechless for a moment. He suddenly realized a problem. Hannah must know that Xanjer was Francisco. But why didn't she tell Monica? Was it because Monica was too young, or did Hannah do it on purpose?

If Xanjer's identity was not supposed to be known by Monica, then Hannah must have kept it a secret for Monica's own good. If so, was it appropriate for him to tell Monica that Xanjer was Francisco?

The point was that Xanjer's identity had not yet been confirmed. He might as well wait until Mary and Eva meet before making a decision.

He always felt that Xanjer's matter was strange. He had to investigate it carefully.

Mary and Eva were holding each other and crying. Mary wept with joy, while Eva was acting. Eva quickly stopped crying and persuaded Mary to stop crying.

After that, Eva began to explain. She said that she was raped at a young age and got pregnant later. She could not bear to abort the innocent child, so she chose to keep it. However, as an unmarried woman, it was difficult for her to support a child, so she sent her to an orphanage. Anyway, she was just talking about how difficult she was at that time and asking Mary to forgive her.

After Mary forgave her, she asked Mary how she had lived all these years. Naturally, Mary told her everything without hesitation. Eva was not interested in it at all. She just wanted to know how Mary found her.

When Eva knew that Mary began to investigate her with Quarmy because of Monica's jade pendant, she was shocked. It was not a good thing for Quarmy to know it. After thinking for a while, she made a request to Mary.
