Every Breath You Take novel Chapter 84

It was not until eleven o'clock in the evening that Roland reluctantly left Monica's house. Seeing him start the car and leave, the other car under the shade of the tree also left.

He couldn't go on like this! It was too torturous to wait here every day and it couldn't change anything. Quarmy had been thinking while driving. He has already told the Wang family about it. Why hadn't they taken any measures yet?

Did they really plan to let Roland marry a divorced woman with a child? Thinking about it, he shook his head. Although Roland had a bad reputation, he had always been favored by Old Mr. Wang, who paid the most attention to the family background. It was impossible for Old Mr. Wang to let Roland be with Monica. So what was wrong?

Quarmy felt really strange. In the old house of the Wang family in America, Old Mr. Wang was lying on a chair in the garden and basking in the sun with his eyes closed. There were two iron balls in his hands. The butler came in a hurry and said, "Old Master, the Eldest Master is here!"

"What is he doing here?" Old Mr. Wang snorted.

"He said he was here for the Seventh Young Master."

The Seventh Young Master was, of course, Roland. Old Mr. Wang opened his eyes and smiled coldly. "Get him out of here!" As soon as he finished speaking, a man strode over. "Father!"

"Didn't I ask you to get out of here?" Old Mr. Wang was not in a good mood.

"Father, don't be angry. I have something to tell you. It's about Roland." The man had similar facial features as Roland's, but he looked more refined and mature.

"Go ahead!"

"Roland has been a little crazy lately. Fie even falls in love with his assistant. Father, you need to get him under control."

"What's there to be surprised about?" Old Mr. Wang snorted.

"The most important thing is that this woman is divorced and she has a child." The man reminded.

"What's wrong with a divorced woman? She's much better than a woman who seduces a married man!" Old Mr. Wang retorted.

The man's face suddenly turned red. "Father!"

"I've said that I'm not your father. Since you abandoned your wife and son and had a relationship with that disgusting woman, you're no longer my son. Roland also doesn't want a shameless father like you!"

"Father, I know that you're mad at me, but you have to care about Roland!" The man continued to persuade Old Mr. Wang with a red face.

"I don't care about Roland? Flave you ever cared about him for so many years? You only care about that b*tch. What do you want your son to do?" Old Mr. Wang sneered. "It's your fault. Since you have abandoned him, don't talk nonsense again. You don't need to care about Roland. It's his freedom to be with anyone he likes, as long as she's not a married woman!"

"Father!"

"Well, you can leave now!" Old Mr. Wang said with a cold face. Seeing that he didn't want to leave, Old Mr. Wang became furious and shouted at the butler standing beside him, "What are you doing? Throw him out!"

Seeing that Old Mr. Wang was furious, the butler had to come forward. "Sir, you may leave now. Don't make things difficult for us!"

Seeing this, the man had to leave unwillingly.

After he left, Old Mr. Wang was still angry. "How dare this disobedient guy scolds Roland? If he hadn't done such a shameless thing, could Roland have become like this? My good grandson has been corrupted by him."

"Old Master, calm down!" The butler quickly comforted him. "It's been so many years, and the Eldest Master knows he's wrong. Please forgive him!"

"Forgive him?" Old Mr. Wang sneered. "I wanted to forgive him, but what did he do? He had been in Jiang City, but he hasn't stopped Roland until now. If he really cares about Roland, why didn't he stop Roland earlier?"

"The Seventh Young Master hates the Eldest Master so much. He won't listen to him." The butler explained. "Even so, he has to remind Roland, instead of leaving him alone?" Old Mr. Wang was angry. "Others have deliberately hidden the news from me. They just want Roland to marry a woman who has no help so that they can get rid of him. It's really disappointing!"

"Don't think too much, Old Master. They didn't tell you because they were afraid that you would worry."

"Is that so? Haha!" Old Mr. Wang sneered. "It's what they don't tell me that really worries me."

"Old Master, you'd better think about how to deal with the Seventh Young Master's matter first!"

"What do I do? Whatever!" Old Mr. Wang rubbed his eyebrows. "The more I try to stop Roland, the less he'll listen to me. Just leave him alone. She is just a beautiful divorced woman with a child. I don't believe that she's more attractive than those popular stars. Let's observe for a while before we make a decision."

The next day, when Roland and Monica came back after lunch, they found that there was an uninvited guest in the company. The man came in a hurry. Seeing his smiling face, Roland's face suddenly darkened. "What are you doing here?"

"I'm here for you."

"For me? Are you out of your mind?" Roland sneered.

Feeling that the atmosphere was not right, Monica made a cup of tea and left. The man's appearance was similar to Roland's. She guessed that he must be an elder of Roland's. She was not sure whether he was Roland's father. There were only Roland and his father Jim in the room. Jim looked at his son's hostile eyes and said helplessly, "Roland, today is your birthday. In the past, I was never there for your birthday. Today, I want to celebrate your birthday with you."

"Hey, are you insane?" Roland didn't appreciate it at all. "Just as I said, if you have something to say, just say it. I don't have the time to talk nonsense with you!"

Jim smiled awkwardly and said, "I just came back from the United States. Your grandpa asked me to tell you something."

"You're not dreaming, are you?" Roland laughed coldly, "Won't you kick out of the Wang family? Did grandpa ask you to tell me something? Haha, it's really funny!"

Jim ignored his sarcasm and said, "He asked me to tell you that you couldn't go too far. A divorced woman with a child is absolutely not allowed to enter our Wang family."

Roland raised his eyebrows and said, "Compared to someone who hooked up with a married woman, I don't think being with a divorced woman is a big deal."

Jim's face turned red all of a sudden. After a while, he said, "Roland, you don't understand. Your mother and I don't love each other..."

"Do you love that married woman?" Roland interrupted him, "Jim, do you know why I look down on you? If you really don't like my mom, you can choose to divorce, but you didn't. You hooked up with a married woman and coaxed my mom at the same time. You are the most disgusting and irresponsible man in the world."

"Roland, I'm sorry!" Jim looked ashamed.

"You don't have to apologize to me. We've broken our friendship since you abandoned us." Roland looked at him sarcastically. "Please don't show up in front of me again. Whether I fall in love with a divorced woman or marry her is none of your concern."

Jim was shocked. "Roland, are you serious?"

"Do you think I'm joking?" Roland sneered.

"Roland, listen to me. Don't be impulsive. After all, I'm your father, I did it for you."

"Father? Shit!" Roland's voice suddenly raised. "A man who only cares about his mistress deserves to be a father?"

"I know you hate me, but no matter how much you hate me, you can't make fun of your marriage!"

"You really overestimated yourself. Do you deserve my hatred?" Roland sneered. "Leave my office immediately and don't dirty my place!"

"Roland!"

"Are you leaving or not? If not, I'll ask the security guard to throw you out!"

Seeing Roland's fierce eyes, Jim was a little timid. He had been less concerned about this son since he was a child. He had never been close to him. Since he had a mistress, his son had been incompatible with him. It seemed that it was really possible for Roland to throw him out. After thinking for a while, he left reluctantly.

After Jim left, Monica pushed open the door. Roland was sitting on the chair with obvious anger. "Tell the receptionist not to let that person in again!"

"What happened?" Monica looked at him worriedly.

"Nothing." Roland calmed down and looked at Monica for a long time before he replied. "He is my father, but I don't want to be his son."

Monica was stunned and was about to speak while Roland got up and went to light a cigarette in front of the window. His handsome face was covered with restlessness. Every family had their own difficulties. Having been with Roland for such a long time, Monica had never heard him mention his family. His father's first appearance, however, was in this tense atmosphere. It was said that the world of the rich was complicated. For some reason, Monica felt sorry for Roland.

Because of Jim, Roland was in a bad mood all day long. Monica did not dare to disturb him but returned to her office. When she got off work, Beck carried a beautifully wrapped bag into her office.

"Mr. Wang bought it for you. Go try it on."

"Why did he buy clothes for me again?"

"He has his reasons. You can try it on and let him have a look." Beck did not say anything. He turned around and went out of Monica's office.

Monica opened the exquisite package and found that it was an evening dress. It seemed that Roland was going to a party tonight. There was a resting room in her office. She locked the door and went into the resting room to change into the evening After that, she entered Roland's office. His face was no longer as gloomy as it was at noon. Instead, he was talking to Beck with a smile. When they heard the door open, both of them looked at Monica at the same time, with amazement in their eyes.

Roland looked at her gently and said, "Yes, but you still need a piece of jewelry."

As he spoke, he pulled open the drawer and took out a box. There was an exquisite diamond necklace inside. He stood up and walked towards Monica. "Put it on and you'll be perfect."

"Be obedient. Put it on!" Before Monica could refuse, he said with a hint of pleading in his tone. "Don't make me unhappy tonight."

Monica's heart softened. She did not refuse and allowed Roland to help her put on the necklace personally. After that, Roland took a step back and nodded with satisfaction. "Beautiful! Beautiful!"

In Beck's car, Roland and Monica sat in the back. Roland had been closing his eyes to rest. Monica could not help but ask, "What is the event tonight?"

"You'll know when we arrive," Beck replied.

"Why is it so mysterious?"

Roland opened his eyes and said, "There's no party. It's just that I'm happy and I invited them to dinner."

At the same time, the car stopped outside a private club. Many luxury cars gathered at the door. Monica actually found a familiar car among them at a glance.

Roland also invited Quarmy? While thinking, she saw a tall figure. Mary, who was dressed in a pink dress, stood beside him. Her skin was originally white, with the pink dress, she looked even more beautiful. She and Quarmy looked like a perfect couple.

Seeing Roland and Monica coming over hand in hand, Quarmy's eyes narrowed slightly. Roland was wearing a black suit without a tie. His shirt was slightly unbuttoned, revealing a silver chain around his neck. His hand was casually in his pocket.

A slender hand passed through his arm. Monica was wearing a long purple dress. Her long skirt was dragged to the ground, and the thin diamonds on the skirt were shining brightly. Her long black hair was scattered over her shoulders without any decoration. Her eyes were clear and bright, and her long eyebrows were curved. Her long eyelashes were slightly trembling. Her white flawless skin was faintly pink and her thin lips were as delicate as rose petals. She looked like a fairy who had descended to the human world.

Quarmy couldn't help but be lost in thought. Mary, who was beside him, exclaimed, "She's so beautiful!"

Monica lowered her eyes. She didn't want to see them at all, but Mary took the initiative to greet her. "Miss Mo, you are so beautiful!"

Her smile was very sincere. Monica smiled faintly. "You are also very beautiful."

Roland and Quarmy greeted each other for a while, and then they entered the club together. A group of people had already arrived, most of whom were familiar faces. When people saw the two couples coming in, they all looked at them with amazing eyes. Most of them were looking at Monica. Roland held Monica's waist tightly and whispered to her ear, "Dear, you are so beautiful tonight!"

Who wouldn't like to hear praises? Monica smiled shyly. "Really?"

"Of course." The gloom on Roland's face disappeared. "Look at these guys' lustful eyes!" He hugged Monica's waist tightly as he spoke.

"Why don't I go back and change my clothes?"

"No, I just want them to be jealous and hate me!"

Seeing the shyness and happiness on Monica's face, Quarmy's eyes darkened.
