Nelson fell silent. It was really hard to understand women.
As he was thinking, Monique spoke again.
"Well, I just said it casually to scare you. Your darling girlfriend isn't afraid of rats, but I am! There are rats in my new house. You are off work now, right? Come and help me to deal with it!"
Without waiting for Nelson to reply, she hung up on the call.
Nelson frowned as he was reluctant to go. However, Monique had always been a very neurotic woman. He was worried that she would do something to Naomi, therefore he got up and left.
On his way there, he went to the pharmacy and bought some medicine that was specially used to treat rats. Then, he went to the address that Monique mentioned.
After he pressed on the doorbell, the door was opened from inside almost instantly.
Monique wore a white silk pajamas, with her curly hair hanging on her shoulders. Her charming red lips matched her alluring figure.
As soon as Nelson looked at her, he immediately turned his head away.
"Where are the rats? I'll go and catch them."
Monique shook her head and said, "There's no rush! You've rushed all the way over here. Come in and drink some water!"
Nelson wanted to shake his head again, but Monique had already stiffened her face and said, "It seems that I don't even have the right to have a drink with you now?"
Nelson could only put down his things, get up and walk toward Monique.
Nelson sat down on the sofa not far away from Monique. He slowly picked up the water and took a small sip.
"Alright! I'll go and catch the rats!"
The next second, Monique grabbed hold of him and said, "Nelson, aren't you too unromantic? I'm here and yet your mind is so focused on rats?"
As she spoke, she pulled Nelson's hand over and slowly placed it on her fair skin.
"The rats are here..."
Nelson was stunned for a moment and subconsciously turned his head away.
"Miss Monique, don't act like this!"
Monique was even happier as she said, "Why does it feel like I'm eating you alive? Didn't you spend some happy time with your little girlfriend already? You don't me anymore, huh?"
"No, it's not that!" Nelson shook his head. "I've told you, Miss Monique, you are my senior."
"Who wants to be your senior? Among you children, I value you the most. You are just like me, incredibly resilient, and always know what you want to do! You also have a weakness and that is that you are too emotional! I know that as long as I'm good to you, you will never betray me, right?"
Nelson nodded and said, "Miss Monique, you saved me and gave me a new life. I certainly won't betray you, but..."
"I don't want to pay you back like this!" Nelson silently cried.
"It's good that you know it! I like you a lot. If I knew that you would be so involved in this task when you returned, I wouldn't have asked you to come back. However, it doesn't matter now. I'm not a petty person. As long as you are not with that girl in the future, I will not mind. I'll just think of it as that you wanted to try new things! Only when you have a taste of others will you know that I'm the best!"
After Monique finished speaking, she reached out her hand to unbutton Nelson's shirt.
Nelson could not bear it anymore and he pushed Monique away.
The air suddenly became quiet, and silence was the only thing left in the originally passionate room.
Nelson opened his mouth and said, "I'm going to catch the rats!"
"There's no need for that!" Monique's voice gradually turned icy, and she returned to wearing the indifferent and distant look she used to have.
She slowly walked back to the sofa and sat down. Then, she slowly tidied up her clothes.
"You did a good job. This is the you that I want to see, one that isn't afraid of any sudden incidents! You can go back first and complete the task I've given you! However, remember what I've said. You should not cross the line, you mustn't."
"Understood!" Nelson nodded, turned around and left.
When the door closed, Monique pushed all the things on the table to the ground with a gloomy face.
