Every Breath You Take novel Chapter 89

After two days, Coco's fever was finally gone. Monica and Xanjer took him out of the hospital. They didn't have a house, so they temporarily lived in Summer's place.

Monica began to look for a house. She had gone to several real estate companies, but she got nothing because the price was too high.

Later, Summer called her and said that she saw a renting information on the Internet. The rent was very cheap. She contacted the landlord and asked Monica to check the house immediately.

It was a three-bedroom house, and its decoration was great. The landlord said that he wanted to rent the house out because he wanted to go abroad. He didn't do it for the rent. He just wanted someone to take care of the house. The rent was not a problem, but the renter had to satisfy him.

After meeting Monica, the landlord expressed his willingness to rent the house to her, but the premise was she couldn't have pets. He wanted her to take the house as her own house.

Monica promised. After knowing that she was a single mother, the landlord felt very sympathetic and reduced the rent. He also said that if she needed money, she could pay a month's rent first and the rest at the end of the year.

Monica was very grateful to meet such a good person. She thanked him a million times. Later, she signed the contract with him and paid the rent of the house for three months.

Monica breathed a sigh of relief after that. Roland asked Beck to tell her that she could go to work after everything was done.

If it weren't for meeting Jenny, Madrigal, and other disgusting people, Monica would have felt that she was lucky.

When she went back, she was in a particularly good mood. She told Xanjer that she had found the house. Xanjer was very happy and said, "We really met a good person."

When Coco heard that he had a single room, he was also very excited. "Mom, I really want to see the new home."

"Okay, Mom will take you to see the house tomorrow." Monica touched his little head and smiled.

When they were chatting, Monica's phone rang. She picked it up and found it was Zoe. "What's the matter?"

"Moni, come out. I have something to tell you." Zoe knew that Xanjer disliked him so he wouldn't appear in front of Xanjer.

Monica hated Zoe because of Madrigal's words. Now that he came to her, she really wanted to question him, so she went out to see him.

Zoe had a kind smile on his face with he saw Monica. "Moni, I've already cleaned up the house and arranged it according to your preferences. You can move in now!" "My preferences? I didn't expect Mayor Jane to still remember what I like. It's really surprising!" Monica satirized.

"If Xanjer wants, he can move in with you." Zoe said with a smile.

"Don't you think you're being hypocritical?" Monica sneered. She was not polite at all. "Even if my uncle becomes a beggar, he won't live in your house!"

"He has a prejudice against me." Zoe laughed dryly.

"If someone kills your sister, will you have no prejudice against him?" Monica retorted.

"Moni, don't listen to Xanjer. He is not a good person..."

"You're a good person?" Monica interrupted him. "Mayor Jane, I want to know if you're the one who supported the relationship between Quarmy and Madrigal?"

"I'm sorry!" Zoe lowered his head with guilt. This matter kept torturing him. Why would he accept Yale's suggestion and allow Madrigal to be a surrogate for maintaining Monica's marriage? At that time, Yale cried with tears and snot, saying that she wanted to atone for her sin. He heard that Jenny had been torturing his daughter, so he agreed casually. Later, he wanted to go back on his word, but Yale said that Madrigal had already gone through an operation.

Zoe knew that he was wrong. He did it for Monica's good, but this matter was extremely harmful to her. The most terrible thing was that he sacrificed the other beautiful daughter for this.

Over the years, every time he thought of this, he would feel that he was a jerk. He felt sorry for his two daughters. Monica had disappeared for three years after that. He was very regretful in his heart, but he had already made a big mistake. Regret had no help.

At first, when Madrigal said that everything was Zoe's idea, Monica didn't believe it. But now seeing Zoe's guilt, she felt extremely painful. How could her noble and intelligent mother choose such a disgusting man? How could she have such a shameless and immoral father?

"Moni, I was wrong. I should have discussed it with you before making a decision. Yale and Madrigal were also trying to compensate you. Don't hate them. We have never thought about hurting you. We did all these things for you."

"For me?" Monica really wanted to laugh. Zoe still didn't forget to defend that two b*tches. Did he think she was an idiot?

Monica knew clearly what Madrigal was thinking. Before her wedding, Madrigal had been flattering Jenny, hoping that Jenny could help her to get Quarmy. Later, after she married Quarmy, she still didn't give up and often came to the Huo family to disgust her.

It Madrigal had been so kind, she would not have become Jenny's accomplice.

"Mayor Jane, you're not only blind and deaf, but also silly, right?" Monica stared at Zoe fiercely. "If that b*tch really did this for me, she should have at least left Quarmy after the matter was exposed, but what about the result?" "Moni, Madrigal didn't ask to be with Quarmy. After you divorced Quarmy, Jenny wanted Madrigal to marry him, but I refused her firmly at that time. Later, Jenny also gave up this idea and started to find Quarmy a girlfriend again. Then..."

"Then what?" Monica sneered.

"The media took photos of Madrigal and Quarmy together. Some people spread rumors that Quarmy had accompanied Madrigal to the hospital. I had to acquiesce their relationship for the sake of Madrigal's reputation." Zoe only said a part of it. At that time, he was at a critical moment in his career. In order to not affect his career, he had to agree with everything between Madrigal and Quarmy. Of course, he did not dare to tell Monica about it.

Monica couldn't help laughing when she heard this. This must be designed by that two b*tches to get what they wanted. What a lame lie! But Zoe, who was in a high position, believed it. It seemed that he really trusted them.

"Moni, it's dad's fault. I'll compensate you!" Zoe felt bad that Monica disappeared after she divorced Quarmy. His only thought was to make up for his daughter so that she could live a better life.

"Compensate me? How?" Monica looked at Zoe with disdain.

"I'll leave all the property to you. Madrigal has promised that she won't ask for a penny after getting married." Zoe said earnestly.

Monica sneered when she heard this. "Mayor Jane, compared to Quarmy, your property is nothing."

Zoe knew her meaning very well. He smiled bitterly and said, "Moni, although I don't have as much money as he does, I can promise you a better life. We have some antiques and paintings. These things are worth a lot!"

"Yale and Madrigal don't know it, do they?" Monica sneered. "Mayor Jane, if your mistress and your illegitimate daughter know you have so many valuable things, there will be a good show. Why don't I tell them?"

"Moni!" Zoe's face changed. Yale really didn't know it. He didn't want her to know that he was going to leave these things to Monica.

"I'm kidding, don't take it seriously!" Monica sneered. "I'm really not interested in your property at all. You'd better keep it yourself. You can even bring it into the coffin!"

"Besides, please don't show up in my life. I will feel ashamed when I see you." Monica turned around and left after saying this.

Zoe looked at her back with a pale face. Monica's character was exactly the same as her mother's. They were exactly the same!

Monica was extremely angry. Zoe had been an official for a long time, and he even behaved like an official in front of his own daughter. If she cared about his property, she wouldn't have divorced Quarmy so easily.

What angered her most was that Zoe was cheated so easily. Zoe was not a fool. He must have put up with that two b*tches must for his future. What right did he who disregarded family affection for his future have to be her father? At this point, she was completely disappointed in him.

After returning home, Monica was very depressed. Xanjer asked her with concern, "Why did he say?"

Monica sighed and told Xanjer that Zoe and Yale asked Madrigal to carry Quarmy's child. After she divorced Quarmy, she only told Xanjer that Quarmy cheated her, but she never said that his mistress was Madrigal. Xanjer trembled with anger when he heard that. "The person who had an affair with Quarmy is Yale's daughter? B*tch! They are all bitches!"

He was really furious. In the past, Yale seduced Zoe, then her daughter seduced Monica's husband. They were really mother and daughter. Zoe was still the one that pissed him off the most. He watched his illegitimate daughter take Monica's husband away without doing anything. And he even agreed to let his illegitimate daughter marry Quarmy. Were all men in the world dead?

"Uncle, don't be angry, it's not worth it!" Monica was not angry. At that time, she was so angry that she lost her mind, so she beat and scolded Madrigal. Now she looked back and found that her behavior was very ridiculous. Madrigal was not the only one who did the wrong thing. If Quarmy hadn't liked her, could Madrigal have slept with him?

The most hateful thing was that he even made such harsh conditions to divorce her for Madrigal after the incident was exposed. Monica thought she was really blind at that time.

"Moni, you should have told me earlier. If I knew that the b*tch's daughter was a mistress, I would try my best to let Zoe regret it!" Xanjer hated Zoe so much that he gritted her teeth.

"Uncle, forget it." Monica comforted him. "A person like Zoe is not worth our anger, neither are that two b*tches. We must live a good life."

"I know, but it's too unfair. How could a smart person like your mother choose such a person?" Xanjer sighed. "There were so many people pursuing your mother at that time. Zoe was not outstanding at all. I thought he was not a good person, but your mother said that he was more trustworthy than those rich people... Alas! I should have stopped her."

"Not a good person? Why?"

"One of your mother's friends asked her to keep several ancient paintings which were worth a lot. Later, these ancient paintings were found to be fake." Xanjer sighed.

"What does this have to do with Zoe?" Monica did not understand.

"At that time, he was pursuing your mother..." Xanjer didn't continue.

Monica was stunned, and her heart suddenly sank. "You think he switched the paintings?"

Xanjer nodded. "But I have no evidence. It's also possible that your mom's friend was cheated at the beginning."

"Uncle, he did it!" Monica's face showed anger. She told Xanjer what Zoe said to her before.

Xanjer's face darkened. "Are you serious?"

"He said it himself. He said that those antiques were worth a lot!" "It's him! It's him!1' Xanjer hit the table with his fist. His face was livid and he gnashed his teeth. "Why is this guy so shameless? Your mother was really blind at that time!"

"Yes, if mom knew that she married such a man, she would definitely live a life worse than death." Monica was also very angry. "Uncle, what happened later?"

"Your mother's friend lost everything and his reputation..." Xanjer's face was pale, and her voice trembled with great anger. "It's all because we didn't know who he really is!"

"Uncle, who's that friend?"

"It's a thing of the past!" Xanjer staggered and stood up. "Moni, I'm very tired. I'll rest for a while."

Looking at Xanjer's staggering steps, Monica was puzzled. "What's wrong with Uncle?"

The next day, the news that Quarmy and Madrigal were about to get engaged appeared on the headlines of the major media in Jiang City. Monica saw the news at Summer's place.

The person who hosted the press conference turned out to be the public relations manager of Quarmy's company. Monica actually saw Jenny. Jenny's face was full of smiles and she looked kind. This kind of Jenny was a stranger to Monica. In her impression, she had never seen Jenny's smile when she was Quarmy's wife.

But now she was smiling as if she had found a treasure. It seemed that she really liked Madrigal very much! Quarmy was wearing a formal suit, and there was a charming smile on his handsome face. It turned out that he personally announced his engagement date with Madrigal.

The reporter's flash light lit up the scene of the press conference. Monica looked at the smile on Quarmy's face and was stunned. Coco also saw Quarmy on the TV. He pointed to Quarmy and asked Monica, "Mom, is Uncle getting married?"

"Yes." Monica came to her senses.

"He lied. He told me last time that he didn't have a girlfriend." Coco looked sad. "I like him so much. How could he lie to me? Uncle Wang is also a bad guy. He said he was my dad. I called him dad, but he didn't want us."

Monica reached out and hugged his little boy, and her heart ached to the extreme. Fortunately, Coco did not know that Quarmy was his father. Otherwise, how sad would he be? And she would never let Coco know that his father was such a disgusting person!

Coco was still a child. After getting angry for a while, he continued to play with toys. The door was opened, Xanjer, who went to buy fruits, came back angrily. "Uncle, didn't you go to buy fruit? Why did you come back with nothing?"

"Moni, are you okay?" Xanjer looked at Monica with concern.

"I'm fine." Monica smiled. Xanjer was afraid that she would be sad when she knew the engagement between Quarmy and Madrigal. "Uncle, I've given up on him for a long time. I'm not sad at all!"

"Poor Moni!" Xanjer looked at Monica, who was pretending to be strong. He felt extremely sad. "I promised your mother to take good care of you, but I didn't make it. You have been wronged. I'm sorry for your mother! I'm even sorry for you!"
