Every Breath You Take novel Chapter 135

Quarmy made an appointment with Xanjer. He asked directly, "I want to ask you something. Please tell me the truth."

Hearing that, Xanjer knew that Quarmy must have known his identity. He said calmly, "What do you want to know?"

"I have a lot of questions. First of all, I want to know why you pretended to be Xanjer." Quarmy did not beat around the bush. "Second, I want to know something about Eva."

"In fact, I didn't mean to pretend to be Xanjer." Francisco sighed and told Quarmy the paintings thing. "Back then, Xanjer died in an accident. I was disheartened and returned to Jiang City. Monica's mother took me in. At that time, I survived as Xanjer in order to avoid troubles."

"Do Zoe and Yale know that you are actually a famous designer?" Quarmy asked again.

Francisco shook his head. "Few people know it. Zoe and Yale only know that Eva and I are brother and sister."

"I think Zoe should know your real identity, because the paintings you lost are now in my hands."

"Why are those paintings in your hands?" Francisco was surprised.

"Zoe gave them to me." Quarmy told him the whole story. Francisco smiled bitterly and said, "It's really him! At that time, Moni told me that Zoe had collected valuable ancient paintings. I suspected that Zoe was the one who stole my paintings, but I was not completely sure."

"Every one's faults are not written in their foreheads. It's really unimaginable that a mayor would do such a thing! I really feel sorry for you." Quarmy sighed. It was really pitiful for a genius designer to be so miserable.

"It's all over. Fame and wealth are not important to me. Over the years, I have lived in seclusion in Jiang City. Although my life is hard, I am very happy.." Francisco was not as angry as Quarmy thought.

"I really admire your attitude." Quarmy said it from the bottom of his heart. Francisco had turned from a famous designer to an ordinary person. Whether the change of identity or life was a kind of torture to him. It was really surprising that he had become so magnanimous.

Francisco smiled faintly. "Moni doesn't know that I'm not her uncle, so I hope you won't tell her. I don't want to affect her mood."

"Don't worry, I won't." Quarmy promised. Fie knew how much Francisco loved Monica. For Monica, Francisco was her uncle. Fie didn't want to affect their relationship. "You must know your sister Eva very well. What kind of person do you think she is?"

Francisco was silent for a while and then answered, "She is selfish and evil."

"Monica should have told you about my mother's injury. I suspect that it's related to Eva." Thinking of unconscious Jenny in the hospital, Quarmy felt very sad. He told Francisco what Eva and Yale did to his mother. "To be honest, I have always been afraid of wronging her. After all, she is my mother's best friend. I want to investigate her so I came to you. I always wondered why Eva decided to deal with my mother and her own niece."

"She is a person who does everything for herself. I don't know why she set your mother up, but I know why she helped Yale. She hates Hannah, so she naturally hates Hannah's daughter."

"Monica's mother is her only sister. Why does she hate her? Is it only because of Jim? But she has already been with Jim, hasn't she?"

"No! She hasn't! That's why she hated Hannah."

"Except for Jim, has Eva ever loved others?" Quarmy asked again.

"No. If she had, she wouldn't have hated Hannah so much."

"But I found out that Eva had a child..."

"A child? Eva has a child? Really?" Francisco was shocked.

"You don't know that?" Quarmy was also shocked. He thought he could get some information about Eva from Francisco, but it seemed that Francisco knew nothing about Eva.

"I don't know." Francisco shook his head. When he encountered such an accident, he was

disheartened. At that time, his father and stepmother passed away, so he closed himself up. He didn't know what had happened to Eva at all.

Quarmy was disappointed. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Do you think it's possible that her child is Jim's?"

"It's absolutely impossible!" Xanjer shook his head. "Although I don't know much about what happened to her, I know her personality well. If her child was really Jim's, she would try her best to make use of the child."

"Then who is the child's father?" Quarmy frowned. Did Eva really have something to do with Yale's cousin Jake? Was Jake her child's father?

At that time, Jake was the person who was the closest to Yale and Eva. He must be very clear about what had happened that year. Quarmy originally wanted to come to Jake, but he was afraid that Jake was not reliable, so he came to Francisco first.

Since Francisco didn't know the truth, it seemed that he had to come to Jake. Before that, he had to let his men investigate Jake.

Quarmy asked Noah to do it right away. The sooner, the better.

After talking with Quarmy, Francisco was very angry. He knew that Eva was a bad person, but he didn't expect her to be so vicious. Francisco was kind- hearted. Although Eva had done those despicable things to Hannah, he chose to give her a chance because she was his sister.

Over the years, he had always thought that Eva would repent, but he was wrong. In order to separate Monica and Quarmy, she even wanted to kill Jenny. Until now, Francisco realized that his silence and forbearance would not make Eva repent. On the contrary, it would make her more unscrupulous.

Eva had been threatening Francisco with his identity. In the past, in order not to let Monica worry too much, he chose to compromise. But now, he found that he could no longer compromise. He was not Xanjer. He had to find a chance to tell Monica about this.

Since Madrigal met Quarmy in the hospital last time, she began to frequently visit Jenny. Of course, she didn't want Jenny to recover. She just wanted to attract Quarmy's attention.

Last time, Madrigal went back home and happily told Yale that Quarmy gave her his handkerchief. The change of Quarmy's attitude surprised Yale. She guessed that it must be because of Madrigal's babies. The desire of the Huo family for children was very strong.

Before, Quarmy was in love with Monica so he was indifferent to Madrigal. Now because of Jenny's injury, he started to hate Monica. Madrigal was pregnant with twins, so Quarmy would definitely change his attitude to Madrigal.

After thinking for a while, Yale thought that Madrigal had to make good use of her babies. Therefore, she let Madrigal try her best to attract Quarmy's attention.

Of course, there was another reason for Yale to let Madrigal come to the hospital every day. She wanted to know Jenny's physical condition from the cares and doctors. She had asked Uriah to deal with Jenny before, but Uriah told her that he was unable to do so. Jenny's ward was the best ward in the hospital. There were professional carers and security guards outside the ward. They didn't allow strangers to get close to Jenny.

It worried Yale very much. Jenny was still alive, which was very unfavorable to them. Although Jenny was still in the vegetative state, she was still a trouble. Eva said that there had been cases of people waking up in a vegetative state, so it was possible for Jenny to wake up one day. They had to think of a way to deal with it.

Sure enough, after meeting Madrigal several times in the hospital, Quarmy's attitude towards her got better and better. He started to care about the physical condition of her and babies. He even took the initiative to ask whether she needed him to accompany her for a prenatal examination.

It made Madrigal very happy. Ever since she was pregnant, she had dreamed of this. In fact, she did not need to have a prenatal examination at all. However, she didn't want to miss this chance, so she nodded repeatedly and happily went to the obstetrics and gynaecology department with Quarmy.

Seeing Madrigal and Quarmy, the doctor was very surprised. Didn't Madrigal just have an examination?

Madrigal's prenatal examinations had been done in the hospital where Eva worked before. Later, in order to get close to Quarmy, Madrigal specially went to Jenny's hospital for a prenatal examination. Eva did not trust others, so she asked a doctor she knew to examine Madrigal. Although the doctor was surprised, she calmed herself down immediately. Then, she started to check Madrigal out.

Quarmy had been standing aside and watching. When the doctor finished checking, he began to carefully ask her about Madrigal's condition. The doctor told Quarmy that the babies were in good condition. Quarmy was very satisfied. "She is so thin that I was worried about her body. Since you said so, I'm completely relieved."

Madrigal felt sweet. Quarmy asked the doctor if he could know the gender of the babies.
