On the day when Mona’s company went public, I was about to propose, but I ran into my girlfriend of six years being questioned by her childhood sweetheart.
“Mona, you have been dating Howard for so many years, why don’t you plan to get married yet? Is it because you have been dating for so long that you don’t even have the urge to get married?”
All the noises at the scene fell silent.
People around us looked at us with a playful look in their eyes.
I only heard the person involved suddenly sneer and answer in Histano, which I was least familiar with.
“I’m not stupid. It’s okay to date him for fun, but if I really marry him, I will be upset for the rest of my life?”
After getting the answer in his heart, Herman smiled instantly. He put his arm around my shoulder and teased, “Howard, your blessing is still behind~”
I smiled and said nothing, watching them drink the wedding wine outside the box with cold eyes.
I called my grandfather to agree with his request for marriage.
——
“What wedding? Who are you going to marry? Didn’t I tell you that I will consider getting married when the company is stable?”
I didn’t know when Mona appeared behind me. She frowned slightly and her face was still flushed.
“So that’s what you meant by that Histano sentence just now?” I asked in a deep voice.
“What else? I told you to learn Histano well, but you didn’t listen. If you don’t like drinking, go back early, otherwise they won’t dare to drink to their heart’s content.”
Mona’s eyes were slightly drunk, but her tone was full of strength that would not refuse me.
“Yes, Howard, you can’t even drink a sip of wine, so leave the battlefield quickly. As for Mona, I will send her back intact by then, so don’t worry.”
Herman put his arm around Mona’s shoulders. He looked at me with his lips curled, his eyes full of provocation.
Mona even echoed, “Herman is right. Your stomach will go on strike after a little bit of alcohol. You’d better hurry back and don’t spoil everyone’s fun.”
Listening to the laughter in the box, I couldn’t help but laugh at myself.
Among the ladies designated by my grandfather, I randomly chose a marriage.
At three o’clock in the morning, Ogania was silent.
I waited at home until three o’clock and then there was a movement outside the door.
When I opened the door, I saw Herman and Mona with a blushing face.
“Hey, Howard, you are still waiting. In this case, please help Mona clean up.”
He raised the key in his hand, turned around and left with a victorious attitude.
Only then did I know that Mona also gave him a key to the house.
Looking at Mona who was full of alcohol, I was furious, but I could only settle her first. However, just when I put her on the bed, I caught a glimpse of the red mark on her chest.
Looking at the faint mark, my brows knitted together instantly and I vaguely knew what it was. But as soon as my fingertips touched the collar, they were suddenly held by a hand.
“Husband…”
When I opened my eyes, Mona pressed me down.
Her eyes were blurred and she called me stickily.
But before I could respond, I heard her next sentence.
“Herman, don’t leave me,” Mona cried and lay softly on me.
The smell of men’s perfume on her hair rushed straight into my nose.
It was Dior Wilderness, which Herman used most often.
My stomach was churning and I lay on the trash can and retched.
But when I stood up, I saw the red mark clearly.
Chapter 2My brain was buzzing.
I threw her into the bathtub roughly and wanted to wash her clean like crazy. But the white sticky substance on the underwear told me clearly.
This person was completely dirty and couldn’t be washed clean!
Only then did I understand what Herman meant by “Please help me clean her up” before he left.
I didn’t sleep that night.
When Mona woke up, there were cigarette butts all around me.
“Howard, are you sick? I just had a celebratory drink with Herman and the others and you actually stripped me naked and soaked me in the bathtub all night! If you want to kill me, you can just say it!”
She stood in the bathroom door with anger and gloom on her face.
The red mark on her chest burned my eyes again.
Mona followed my gaze and noticed the red mark.
The fierceness in her eyes instantly turned into guilt.
“What are you looking at? It’s just a mosquito bite,” she explained in a panic, covering it with a bath towel.
But the facts that had already happened could not be covered up.
After taking a deep breath, I said, “Let’s break up.”
Mona’s movements stagnated.
She looked at me in shock and asked, “What did you say? You want to break up with me just because of this red mark? Have I been too good to you these days, so you get carried away? Don’t forget, you are supported by me!” Mona accused me in a series of ways.
But I laughed.
Yes, my salary was paid by her.
Even the underwear on my body was paid with her card.
But she seemed to have forgotten.
She could achieve what she had today, all because of me who drank cup after cup until my stomach was perforated!
In the six years of being in love with Mona, I gave up my millions of assets in Edinas.
Despite the accusations of my family, I went to a foreign country with her to start a business.
In the most difficult time, the two of us lived in a 10-square-meter rental house and ate expired instant noodles.
Even when we went to bed every day, we had to listen to the snoring next door.
Even so, the relationship between us is still as loving as before.
Now that the hardship had paid off, she was fascinated by the bright lights and wine outside!
Why did Herman, who had disappeared for many years, suddenly appear?
What was his purpose?
Everyone knew it, only Mona was immersed in her own fantasy dream.
The clothes on the ground were in a mess, just like my mood at the moment!
At this point, it no longer mattered who was right or wrong.
I extinguished the cigarette butt in my hand and pushed her aside.
I pushed out the suitcase and packed my clothes.
This action directly ignited Mona’s temper.
She pulled out the clothes in the suitcase one by one and threw them on the ground.
“What are you going to do?! I didn’t agree with the breakup!”
She screamed at the top of her voice and her collapse looked like a shrew.
The couple’s mug was thrown on the ground by her and the fragments cut my trouser legs.
I didn’t care, just smiled bitterly and asked back.
“You already have a new person, why are you still holding on to me, the old one? Do you want me to show you the evidence of your love before you let go? It’s better to part ways in peace, isn’t it better for everyone to be decent?!”
Mona was furious until I pointed to the ground.
She then noticed the pink panties in the corner, which still had a piece of dried white liquid on them.
Mona looked at me suddenly, her face pale.
“Howard, things are not what you think…”
Chapter 3Mona opened her mouth, thinking hard about how to explain.
However, a cell phone ring broke her thoughts.
Looking at the notes, Mona frowned.
After hanging up the phone, she seemed extremely impatient.
“Herman had a car accident on the way home and I have to bail him out now. I’ll explain today’s things to you when I come back!”
After that, Mona put on a coat and went out, still arguing with me.
Looking at her hurried back, at this moment, I just felt like a clown.
The cell phone in the living room suddenly rang. It was a cross-border call from Grandpa.
“Howard, the date of the marriage is scheduled for five days later. I will arrange everything. You don’t have to do anything, just arrive! And the plane to pick you up will arrive tomorrow morning. You want to play tricks on me again, I will change the position of the Porter Family heir!”
Grandpa’s voice was majestic and long.
After hanging up the phone, a plane message came.
Looking at the time above, I sighed heavily.
Originally, I planned to go back tonight, but since Grandpa had his plans, let’s follow his plan.
I cleaned the house and completely cut off everything with Mona.
Mona didn’t come back that night.
After I emptied all my belongings, I found that my thigh was cut very deeply.
It was Mona who hurt me when she was throwing a tantrum just now.
In order to avoid infection, I hastily stopped the bleeding and prepared to go to the hospital for disinfection and bandage.
But when I got to the basement, I found that the car was driven away by Mona.
The only thing left in the garage was the ice-berry Ferrari that Mona had just bought.
I thought about using her car to go to the hospital temporarily.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the car door was opened, a fishy smell came out of my nose, which almost choked me and made me unable to breathe!
The car was in a mess and an unknown white liquid was everywhere!
The group photo originally hung on the front of the car was crushed and thrown in the corner at will.
I finally understood why Mona didn’t drive her own car.
I picked up the photo under the car.
In the photo, Mona was standing in front of the Ferrari, one hand supported the front of the car and the other hand was around my waist, red lips and white teeth, smiling particularly brightly.
This was taken when Mona and I picked up the car.
I remember she shouted at that time, “I have both bread and love. I am the happiest woman in the world.”
The past reappeared and her excited voice echoed vaguely in my ears.
But when the echo faded, everything was still different.
In the group photo, my head was removed and a big cross was marked on my body.
I knew this was Herman protesting against me.
But it didn’t matter anymore, anyway, I would return to Edinas tomorrow.
By then, they could love as deeply as they wanted!
The most important thing now was to go to the hospital quickly.
Looking at the messy car, I didn’t want to get in the car.
But there was no taxi in the suburbs at four in the morning and the gauze on my thigh had begun to bleed.
I had no choice but to clean up the driver’s seat.
Enduring the disgusting smell, I drove all the way.
When I arrived at the hospital, the sky was just getting light.
I dragged my bloody legs up the steps with difficulty.
But I bumped into Mona who was helping Herman out.
“Why are you here?”
Without waiting for my answer, Herman shrank behind Mona.
“Howard, you are not here to catch me cheating, are you? There is really nothing between me and Mona. She just saw that I had a car accident, so she came to take care of me.”
