Every Breath You Take novel Chapter 131

Lassie took a few quick steps and quickly walked to Monica and Quarmy. She saw a paper cup on the ground, and the ground was full of water stains. She pretended to be surprised and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Madam is in danger, so Mr. Huo is in a bad mood." Noah explained.

Although Noah was trying to mediate the situation, Lassie knew what was going on immediately. Quarmy must have knocked over the water Monica gave him. It made Lassie secretly happy.

Monica blushed. She just noticed that Quarmy's mouth was dry, so she poured a cup of water for him. Unexpectedly, he didn't appreciate it. He raised his hand and knocked over the cup in her hand, saying that he didn't need it.

Quarmy had always had a good temper with Monica. Even when he divorced her, he didn't scold her like this. Monica felt a little wronged. If it weren't for her worry about Jenny, she would have left long ago.

She stood aside to wait. Because she had been standing for a long time, she felt soreness in her waist, so she reached out to rub her waist. Quarmy stared at the door of the operating room with a gloomy face and no one knew what he was thinking. Noah saw Monica rubbing her waist, so he kindly said to Monica, "Miss Mo, you are pregnant. You'd better go back and have a rest. I will inform you if there is any news."

Quarmy looked at Monica after hearing Noah's words. His face did not change at all, and his eyes were cold. "Why don't you leave? Do you want to see how miserable my mother is?"

Monica didn't say anything. She knew that Quarmy was upset, so she didn't want to argue with him.

Lassie was so happy to hear this. "Miss Mo, you'd better go back. It's useless for you to stay here. You will only annoy Mr. Huo."

Monica glared at Lassie. If it weren't for what Lassie said, Quarmy would never have treated her like this. Why did she have to say that? What did she want?

She really wanted to question Lassie, but when she thought of Jenny inside, she gave up. At the same time, her phone rang.

Monica had not returned since she came out. Xanjer was worried about her. Monica lowered her voice and told him about Jenny's injury. She said that she was in the hospital now and would go back later.

Finally, the door of the operating room opened, and the nurse pushed Jenny out.

"How's she?" A few people who were waiting outside suddenly gathered around.

The doctor came out from behind and answered, "The patient has a serious intracranial hemorrhage and is in a serious coma. She may never wake up again. You have to be mentally prepared." Quarmy's face changed greatly. "Is there no other way?"

"This is the best we can hope for. The worst one..." The doctor did not continue. The worst one was that Jenny would never wake up.

Quarmy shook himself a few times. Monica reached out to hold him, but he pushed her away. "Why are you still acting?"

Lassie didn't see the scene of Quarmy knocking over the cup with her own eyes, but she saw it clearly. Quarmy's face was full of anger and he looked at Monica with hatred.

Noah reached out his hand to hold Quarmy. "Mr. Huo, calm down. We don't know what's going on right now. You may have misunderstood Miss Mo."

Lassie scolded Noah several times in her heart. "D*mn Noah, why did you say that?" But she didn't dare to say anything. Quarmy and Noah were not fools. She just needed to describe what she had seen in an objective way, which made Quarmy suspect Monica.

After sending Jenny to the intensive care unit, Quarmy asked Noah to hire two professional cares for Jenny. Then he said coldly, "Let's go home!"

Lassie knew that he was going home for an investigation. She was a little nervous, although she thought their plan was perfect. She and Noah caught up with Quarmy. Monica was stunned and then followed them.

They quickly drove back to the Huo family. Quarmy opened the door and strode into the living room. The living room was still the same as before. Quarmy glanced around and said to Noah, "Get me everyone who's on duty at the villa today."

Soon, the security guards and the driver came in.

Quarmy looked at the security guards. "Did anyone else come here today?"

"Yes." A security guard answered. "Doctor Xi has been here before."

"Dr. Xi said that she brought Madam beauty supplements from abroad." Lassie pointed to the things in the living room.

Quarmy picked up the things sent by Eva. Then he asked, "When did Dr. Xi leave?"

"She left at noon," Lassie answered.

Quarmy nodded and looked at the security guards. "Well, bring me the surveillance video outside."

"Today's surveillance video is not complete. The power was cut off for about two hours." A security guard replied.

"A blackout? When did it start?"

"Soon after Dr. Xi came." The security guard answered.

Quarmy frowned. He had planned to check the surveillance video. What should he do now?

The security guard said that the power went out only after Eva came. Was this matter related to Eva? Quarmy glanced at the people in the room and said, "When did you last see Madam? Tell me more details."

"I've been staying in the driver's room until I heard that something happened to Madam." The driver answered.

A security guard thought for a moment and said, "Madam didn't go out today. The last time I saw her was when she was in a coma."

Another security guard answered, "I saw Madam when I reported the blackout thing. At that time, she was sitting with Lassie in the living room. I left after reporting."

At that time, the security guard stood at the door of the living room. He only saw Jenny's back, so he did not know that Jenny had already been in a coma.

Quarmy frowned. That was to say, when Eva left, Jenny was still fine.

Lassie answered, "The last time I saw Madam was when she fell to the floor, and there was a slap mark on her face. Miss Mo was there to give her first aid..."

"Wait a minute!" Quarmy interrupted her. "Did Madam ask you to send Monica the bird's nest soup?"

"Yes, Madam said that she wanted to nourish Miss Mo. In the early morning, Madam got up and made the bird's nest soup herself. She refused to let me help her..."

"Why didn't Madam send it herself? Why did she ask you to send it?" Quarmy asked again.

"Madam planned to send it to Miss Mo personally, but Dr. Xi came to visit her. Madam had the habit of taking a nap at noon every day. It was already noon after she chatted with Dr. Xi, so she asked me to send it." Lassie explained. Naturally, Quarmy knew about Jenny's habit of taking a nap at noon. He looked at the security guards and said, "Did anything else happen after that?"

"No. Later, the two of us stayed in the security room and didn't see anyone coming. We didn't hear any movement until Lassie and Miss Mo came."

"You may leave now," Quarmy ordered the security guards and driver to leave, leaving only Noah and the other two people in the living room. He was silent for a moment and looked at Monica. "I want to know your opinion."

"I've said everything I should say. When I found there was saffron in the bird's nest soup, I came to question Jenny with Lassie. Lassie went to answer a phone call, so I went upstairs alone. I called her a few times, but no one answered. When I opened the door, I saw her lying on the ground..."

"Monica, do you think what you said can convince us?" Quarmy interrupted her with a face full of anger. "My mother was fine before you came, and you are the last person who saw her. You'd better tell the truth. What did you do to my mother?"

"Quarmy, can you be a bit reasonable?" Monica's face turned red. "I told you that when I went in, she was already on the ground..."

"Do you think that we will believe you?" Quarmy's eyes became colder and colder. "Monica, since you have done it, you should admit it. Tell me, did you push her to the ground accidentally?"

"Quarmy, what do I have to say to make you believe me?" Monica went crazy. She felt really upset. "Who can prove your innocence?" Quarmy asked, "There is a clear slap mark on my mother's face. How dare you say that you didn't hit her out of anger?"

"I didn't hit her. Quarmy, I didn't." Monica found that it was really hard to prove her innocence.

"Don't deny it. Last time I saw you hit her with my own eyes. I love you, so I chose to tolerate it. But why did you hit her again? Monica, admit it. Did you hit my mother, push her to the ground, and cause her to pass out? I know you didn't mean to hurt her. As long as you admit it, I will forgive you for the sake of your pregnancy."

"How can I admit what I didn't do? Quarmy, how can you suspect me?" Monica shouted.

"It's not that I suspect you, but the fact is just like this. Monica, you really let me down! My mother has taken the initiative to apologize to you, why did you do this to her? I know that my mother used to treat you badly. You must have done it to her because you hated her."

"You are unreasonable!" Monica was angry. "Quarmy, let me tell you, slandering others is a crime. Do you have any proof that I did it? If you suspect me, call the police immediately and let the police investigate this matter."

"Do you think I won't do anything for you? Monica, God knows everything. My patience is limited." Quarmy also shouted.

"If you really suspect me, you can call the police." Monica couldn't bear it anymore.

"Okay! You win! Monica, I won't let this go easily. We'll see!"

Listening to the quarrel between Monica and Quarmy coming from the living room, Lassie showed a proud smile on her face. Quamry seemed to have believed that Monica was the one who caused Jenny to pass out. Things were going to be more fun.

The door was opened suddenly. Monica rushed out of the living room angrily and left the Huo family.

"This woman is so vicious. How can she be so arrogant after doing such a heartless thing? Does she think that I don't dare to call the police? Noah, call the police immediately. I'd like to see how tough she can be." After Monica left, Quarmy was so angry that he grabbed a teacup and smashed it on the ground, screaming crazily.

Hearing that, Lassie was a little scared. Would Quarmy really call the police? If so, this matter would be troublesome. She heard that the police were very good at solving cases. Would they find out that Yale had come?

Lassie panicked when she thought of this. She immediately entered the living room, squatted down to clean up and observed Quarmy carefully.

"Mr. Huo, calm down! It's not the time to act on impulse!" Noah comforted Quarmy. "I know you are suspecting Monica, but we have no proof now. And I don't think Monica is such a cruel person."

Noah still spoke up for Monica as usual. Lassie was no longer angry at his words because she hoped him to stop Quarmy from calling the police.

"Calm down? How can I calm down? My mom's life is in danger, but Monica has no regret at all. As her son, should I stand by and do nothing?" Quarmy roared. "I want to send her to jail. This woman is too abominable!"

"Miss Mo is pregnant now. You can't do this to her."

"Yeah, Miss Mo is pregnant now. You'd better not call the police." Lassie added.

"I don't care. She just wants to threaten me with her child. Is she the only woman who can have a baby? Why do I have to be with her? You have seen how vicious she is. I won't want such a woman. In the past, I was really blind." Quarmy was so angry that he even that.

"However, you have to think for the children. Coco is still sick and Miss Mo is pregnant with your child." Noah was really panicked. He was afraid that Quarmy would really deal with Monica, so he deliberately mentioned Coco. Although he did not know what was going on, he intuitively thought that Monica was innocent.

"Yes, I don't think Miss Mo did it on purpose. Maybe she will regret it soon." Lassie not only tried to let Quarmy give up calling the police, but also wanted to frame Monica.

"Should I do nothing?" Quarmy punched the tea table and said, "No, I can't let it go like this!"

"I mean, isn't Madam still in the hospital? We can wait for her to recover." Noah knew that Quarmy was angry, so he had to try his best to persuade him.

"Recover? The doctor said that my mother, she... she would never wake up." Quarmy's voice choked. Lassie was originally shocked by Noah's words, but then she calmed down after hearing Quarmy's words. "No matter how bad the situation is, you have to stand it for the sake of your children."

Quarmy clenched his fist and said, "You're right. I'll deal with her after she gives birth to my child. Since she did this to my mom, I won't let her continue to take care of my children. I want her to experience the pain of having a life worse than death."

Quarmy and Noah went to the hospital again. Lassie breathed a sigh of relief and called Yale. She described what had just happened. Yale was very happy and told her not to expose herself.

Monica returned home. Xanjer was playing with Coco in the living room. When he saw Monica's unhappy face, he asked, "How is Jenny?"

"Her life is in danger. The doctor said that she might not wake up in her whole life." Monica sighed.

Although Xanjer didn't have a good impression of Jenny, he still sympathized with her. "What happened? How did she become like this?"

"I don't know. When I came to her house, she was already in a coma." Monica told Xanjer what she saw. Thinking that Lassie had been slandering herself, she said angrily, "I don't know what that Lassie wants. She told Quarmy that Jenny was injured because of me. Quarmy actually believed her words and suspected me. I was so angry that I had a big fight with him."

"Did you get into a fight?" Xanjer asked in surprise.

"Yes, I was very angry at that time so I quarreled with him. Uncle, I'm not Lassies's enemy. Why did she say these irresponsible words to mislead Quarmy?"

"Maybe she didn't mean it."

"No, I think she did it on purpose. She said those words on purpose to make Quarmy suspect me."

Xanjer comforted her, "Moni, although Quarmy shouldn't have suspected, you should understand him. He was in a bad mood, and Lassie kept misleading him. It is inevitable that he would lose his judgment. He will change his mind after he calms down."

"I hope so. But I didn't push Jenny. I don't care what he thinks."
