I knew that every man would feel bad when he saw his wife kissing someone else, even if he knew that she was unwilling or unintentional.
It was just like a slap on his face. He had to be angry.
I looked at him silently for a while. Without saying anything, I turned around and went upstairs.
I thought I should let time fade it. Some things could be made clear to talk about, but some things couldn’t.
When I went back to the bedroom, I went to the bathroom. The cold water cleaned my body and it hurt a little.
I was wondering when Dennis and I have been taking care of each other’s emotions so carefully.
I suddenly remembered the U disk that Jane gave me. Yes, I haven’t finished checking the things in the U disk. In the past month, I was not conscious enough, and my emotions were on the verge of breaking down. Besides, I got along with Hank day and night. It was inevitable for a man and a woman to do something intimate.
Some scenes were even shocking to me, let alone Dennis. He had been restraining his anger these days. Presumably, it had something to do with the video.
Folly told me that Hank had said something to him at the wedding banquet. I knew Hank well. What he had said was definitely not something good.
He had resentment in his heart, some that he didn’t want to tell me.
I had been in the bathroom for too long. When I came out of the bathroom, I felt a little dizzy. I walked back with my hand holding the wall. Then I fell on the bed.
Maybe everything would be fine after a good sleep.
Just as I thought, Dennis didn’t come into the bedroom. He didn’t want his bad mood to affect me, nor did he want to have a quarrel with me.
We had had a quarrel, and that was enough.
The next day.
When I went downstairs, Clarie had been sent to school. Only the servant, Finn, was at home.
Seeing that I went downstairs, Finn walked up to me and said with a smile, “Madam, Mr. George just left. He asked me to cook porridge for you. He said that you like it. Please have a taste.”
Then she brought the porridge to me and handed me a piece of paper with a strange smile, “He asked me to give this to you because he didn’t want to wake you up this morning.”
The words on the note were very simple. “Remember to have breakfast. Wait for me at home. Let’s have dinner together this evening.”
He was as considerate as ever. But we both knew that there was already a gap between us. He and I seemed to have come to a dead-end, confused.
I nodded and smiled at Finn. Then I sat down and had breakfast.
In fact, I had no good appetite. After a few bites, I felt a little nauseated.
But I finished them all.
However, half an hour later, I vomited them up.
The holiday was coming, and City P was cold. It was not a good choice to go out.
I went to the study and took the sandalwood box from my grandma to study it. Folly said that the box was not opened with a key, so how could I open it?
Judging from its shape and structure, I guessed that it was made long ago. It seemed to be made by an old carpenter in the 60s.
After a while, I was a little tired, so I gave up and found a book in the study.
I happened to see the contract on Dennis’s desk. I had read it several times. It was about the acquisition case of Gibson group.
I walked over and looked through it. It was a common case for companies to merge and acquire the weak ones.
No matter what the result was, I couldn’t get involved in it.
With a slight sigh, I closed the contract and put it into the drawer. Then I saw a dozen of photos in the drawer.
I was a little stunned. I thought that Dennis had put those photos in the villa in Newton Town, but I didn’t expect that he would bring them here
I took them out and wanted to watch them again.
However, when I opened the album, the baby photos were exposed.
I was very familiar with that baby. Although I had never seen him after he was born, I saw him in my dream.
There was a bruise on his forehead, which was caused when he tried to meet me.
The newborn baby couldn’t open his eyes. His features were similar to Dennis’s. Even if his face was crumpled, I could still see his delicate features.
How could Dennis have these photos? Back then, Hank asked me if I wanted to see the baby or not, but I didn’t want to. I was afraid that if I did, I wouldn’t be able to feel relieved for the rest of my life.
Now when I suddenly saw it, an indescribable pain spread in my heart. I tried to suppress it.
I put the photos back. Dennis couldn’t have these photos. There was only one possibility. It was Hank who gave them to him.
Hank might have said something that he shouldn’t have said to Dennis, since Dennis suddenly decided to destroy the Gibson group.
When I went back to the bedroom, I curled up in the quilt and suddenly lost my direction
Hank had asked me why I had to be with Dennis. I didn’t know who else I could be with in this world except him.
We were expecting happiness when we came to this world.
But after going through so many things, we all forgot what the sunrise looked like, but only remembered the sunset
I didn’t sleep well last night. I curled up in the quilt and slept for a long time. When I woke up, it was already dark.
Finn knocked on the door several times. When I got up and opened the door, she looked at me and said, “Madam, are you hungry? How about going downstairs to eat something?”
I had no appetite and shook my head subconsciously. But when I remembered that Dennis said he would have dinner with me, I changed my mind, “I’ll eat with Dennis after he comes back.”
Embarrassed, Finn said, “Mr. George has come back. He has been sitting in the living room for a long time and has been smoking. Do you wanna go downstairs and have a look?”
He had come back?
“When did he come back?”
“He was back at about five o’clock.”
I had fixed feelings. I didn’t know what I should think and what I should do.
He had come back, indicating that he still remembered his words on the note, but he didn’t come to the bedroom, which meant he was still not relieved.
Alright!
Looking at Finn, I smiled and said, “You can eat first. I’m not hungry.”
If we didn’t see each other, we might feel better.
Finn opened her mouth but said nothing in the end. Then she went downstairs.
I lay back on the bed, looked at the ceiling, and continued to sleep, but it might not be easy for me to fall asleep again.
After a long time, the room was completely dark.
The bedroom door was opened and footsteps came in. I closed my eyes and breathed quietly. I knew it was him, but perhaps we shouldn’t see each other.
The sound of water came from the bathroom. I knew he came out with my eyes closed.
He sat on the edge of the bed for a long time without going to bed. I thought he would sleep in the study tonight.
However, after a while, the sound of the book closing came, and a place on the bed sank, and the lamp was turned off.
Then I heard his slight breathing. We slept on the one bed but had different dreams.
As time went by, I couldn’t fall asleep. He was breathing evenly.
He seemed to be asleep.
I couldn’t help turning over and opening my eyes. When I met his clear eyes, I was stunned for a moment.
Before I opened my mouth, he reached out and held me in his arms, “Finn said that you vomited up all in the morning and didn’t eat anything at night.”
