My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1617

Monique's heart sank when she saw Levi's indifference to her. She was about to leave when she remembered something that she wanted to tell him, "We have brought Ronald's body back to his hometown for burial. His parents are being taken care of. Don't worry."

At the mention of Ronald, Levi became slightly agitated. He lifted his head but averted his gaze when their eyes met. He said calmly, "Thank you for your help! Ronald can finally rest in peace."

Monique responded, "We are also Ronald's comrades. It's our duty. You don't have to thank me."

Levi did not respond. Monique felt uneasy, wondering why he was acting distant all of a sudden again. "Levi, my apologies. I should have told you in advance before coming. I did not disturb you, didn't I?"

She asked tentatively. Her heart raced as she was a little nervous. She was afraid that Levi was annoyed with her sudden appearance...

Levi was flustered and restless. He knew very well that he had feelings towards Monique, but he was too proud to admit that he had fallen for someone like Monique.

After pondering the matter, he concluded that it was because he hadn't seen a pretty lady for a very long time. Hence, he was attracted to her. Once his life returned to normal and he was able to hang around attractive women again, he would probably forget about her. It was only a matter of time.

Levi couldn't wait to keep his distance from her once he thought it through and replied coldly, "Well, it was indeed sudden for you to pay a visit before notifying me. Next time, come together with our other comrades so that I don't need to entertain you guys twice."

His words were like daggers to her heart. It was apparent that he was making it clear that she was not someone special. She had got the wrong idea.

Monique tasted the bitterness of reality. Ronald's last words raised her hopes and she did not want to miss such a remarkable man, which was why she decided to make a move.

After all, life only lasted a few decades. It was really short. Time passed in the blink of an eye. Ronald's death made her realize how fragile life really was.

She suddenly understood the meaning of life. Hence, Monique wanted to utilize the time she had and do what she wanted. She wished to cherish the good days and appreciate those who were important to her, as she did not want to regret it later in life.

Monique knew that she had gotten the wrong idea after seeing Levi's attitude. They were from different backgrounds and were not meant for each other. It was wishful thinking.

This was how it should be like...Once she thought it through, Monique regained her composure. She clenched her fists and put on a smile. "Young Master Brown, I'm really sorry for disturbing you. It will never happen again."

Monique turned and was about to leave when Levi cried out, "Wait a minute!"

Levi wanted to keep his distance. However, it annoyed him to see Monique talking to him politely as if he was a stranger. She shouldn't be so nonchalant. It was as though she was not interested in him at all.
