Chapter 37
I faintly felt his palm caressing my lower abdomen. Not knowing what he was doing, I resisted a little by
twisting my body.
I was in a disoriented state as he carried me to bed.
I was too sluggish, so I fell into a deep sleep once again.
The next day.
Perhaps it was because I drankst night that I felt hungover when I woke up. I sat in the bed for a long
while before my phone began to ring several times.
After a while, I finally tapped on my phone and saw that it was a message from Monique.
"How was the escortst night? Did everything go well?"
I palmed my forehead upon being rendered speechless. I typed out a reply, "Monique, don''t you know
that women can''t do that within a month after the operation?"
Not long after the message was sent, I received a call.
I picked it up and Monique''s loud voice came from the other end, "D*mn, you should have told me
earlier. I even gave him a big tip yesterday!"
After stretching my body, I slipped out of bed and drew the curtains while speaking into the phone,
"Let''s go shopping together next time, I''ll buy you whatever you fancy. By the way, I met Andreast
night."
Monique was startled. "Isn''t she the one who proimed to be as pure as the driven snow? What was
she doing there?"
"Hendrix and the others were there too," I added. After several heavy showers of rains, the scenery
around the vi had be dazzling.
Monique sighed and said, "Forget it, let''s not talk about her. When are you nning to leave
Ucrebury?"
My head started to ache when she mentioned that. "Hendrix hasn''t signed the divorce papers yet. I
also haven''t dealt with thepany''s matter."

Monique hummed in response, paused for a while and responded, "Tell me after you settled them. I''ll
go to Andnd in a few days to look for a good ce. Then I''ll sell off the bar here."
I choked a little at this. "You have been in charge of that bar for so many years, are you willing to let go
of it now?" To sell off her hard-earned business for me, I couldn''t help but feel bad.
"Tsk!" She said in a casual tone, "All those are not important. Besides, it''s not like I can''t open another
bar when we''re in Andnd."
Speaking of this, Monique couldn''t help but grow excited. She asked, "Have you thought about what
you are going to do when you leave Roberts Group and head to Andnd?"
I was dumbfounded for a moment. I never really thought about that before. By the time I finished
settling everything, my belly would''ve gotten bigger. Inevitably, it would be inconvenient for me to find a
job with a big bump.
"I might rest for a period of time." After the child is born, there would be a span of time when I wouldn''t
be able to take up too many things. Thus, I would only decide what to do when the child was old
enough.
"That''s true." Monique contemted for a while and said, "You have been working hard with Hendrix
for so many years, you should have a good rest. Fortunately, I had saved up a sum of money as well. It
should be enough for us to spend as we like."
Iughed, "Don''t worry. Even if I divorced Hendrix, I still have savings in my ount." The vi was left
behind by Master Roberts, even if Hendrix gave it to me after our divorce, I wouldn''t want it. As for the
shares of thepany, I hadn''t thought about how to deal with it.
After a few chats, I hung up the phone and stood by the window, quietly enjoying the scenery with my
arms crossed.
How should I lead my life in the future? I truly need to think about it.
Suddenly, the air felt chilly. I rubbed my arms and turned to look for a coat. Right at this moment, I saw
that Hendrix was standing behind me with a cold expression.
I froze instantly and asked, "Did... Didn''t you go to thepany?" I didn''t know how long he had been
standing there and couldn''t help wondering if he had listened to my conversation with Monique.
Hendrix''s dark gaze fell upon me. It was callous and sullen as he spoke, "Where are you nning to
go?"
