Chapter 14
Knowing that he was angry, I whispered to bid goodbye to Monique. Then I walked towards him in a
good manner while bowing my head and said, "Thank you!"
He gave me a cold-eyed stare. It seemed that his pair of eyes were deep and unwavering without any
emotion. He uttered coldly, "Get into the car!"
I dare not to say a word and got in the car obediently.
After driving for a few whiles, I got a message from Monique that she had arrived home. So I looked out
the window to see that we were almost at the vi as well.
Looking at the man beside me, he was as cold as always. I would not dare to speak more if it was not
him that start the conversation.
At the vi, he parked the car and then walked to the vi straight away. I followed him and exined to
him after giving a second thought, "Hendrix, I thought you were drunk, that''s why I gave Doctor
Saunders a call. Believe me that I have no other thought."
Despite knowing that it was needless to exin, I still did it. I knew that he would not give a damn even
if I exined to him.
He suddenly stopped walking, he turned around and nced at me. He slightly narrowed his eyes, and
said in a deep voice, "Huh? Do you think Josiah will have a fancy for you?"
The word shut me up. I was speechless for a moment and could say no more.
That''s right, not to mention that Josiah was Hendrix''s buddy, but I was still Hendrix''s nominal wife. Even
if he wasn''t, Josiah wouldn''t necessarily have a fancy for me.
To Hendrix, I was just a speck of dust in the mud, which was petty and low. If it wasn''t for Dalton''s
tender affection for me, I probably wouldn''t even have the right to meet Hendrix, not to say marry him.
Seeing that I didn''t say a word, Hendrix nced at me with his cold eyes and he was getting ready to
go upstairs.
After a few steps, he suddenly stopped as if he had thought of something. He turned to me and
ordered, "Go to The Gallery Lane to buy a supper."
I was stunned, why didn''t he just say so on the way? It was a far cry from The Gallery Lane, and it was
already midnight. Why should I travel to get him ate-night snack?

"Has it to be today? It''s already midnight, and the ce is probably closed by now."
"No, it''s running 24 hours!" He threw me the words and went straight upstairs without giving me no
chance to say anything.
Indeed, he was not craving for supper but just wanted to torture me.
But, I was wrong in the first ce. After a pause, I still went out of the vi and prepared to drive there.
It was the rainy season, and the air was warm and humid since it looked as if it was going to rain soon.
I was nning to drive Hendrix''s jeep, but he brought the key along to the study room. I had no choice
but to drive another car with a lower chassis at the garage.
It was at one o''clock at the midnight. I took a detour around the city before I could get him a supper and
I was lucky that it wasn''t raining.
However, it began to rain heavily as soon as I came out of The Gallery Lane. There were thunders and
shes of lightning, followed by a heavy downpour.
I drove back all the way. A flood could be seen in tunnels and roads of Ucrebury during the rainy
season, so I deliberately detoured the tunnel. Although the distance was long, at least there would not
be any flood.
However, it was totally out of my expectation that the car would break down halfway. Due to the detour,
I drove slowly, and there was still a long way to go from the vi. Since the area was deste, and it
was raining heavily, so it was impossible to hail a cab at the moment.
I looked at my phone and found that it had run out of power. I had no choice but to give Hendrix a call.
The phone rang several times but no one answered. It was about to shut off, so all I could do was to
get an umbre from the car, and brought the supper along with me to walk back home.
