Chapter 180
When I came out of the washroom, I noticed that Monique looked pale.
I asked in confusion, "What happened?"
"You told him we''re in Andnd?" she asked.
I nodded. Then I asked tentatively, "Is Doctor Saunders the baby daddy?"
"No!" She blurted out. After a pause, she said, "I''ll go wash up. You should also pack up your things.
We''ll be staying in the countryside for a few days."
What?
I was puzzled, "Why are we going to the countryside? We just arrived in Andnd!"
"Or do you prefer to go back to Ucrebury? You can also clear things up with Hendrix. He should have
arrived in Ucrebury already." She said weakly, "Arianna, I don''t want to have anything to do with them
anymore. Now that you''ve left the Roberts Group. Let''s leave together and stay far away from them. If
you can''t bear to let Hendrix go, you can just go back and live happily with him."
They, as in Hendrix and Josiah? I wondered.
Monique was an efficient person. I knew that if she decided to leave, she wouldn''t drag it out.
I was still confused about the situation, and I couldn''t think straight. I shouldn''t go back to Hendrix. I
never wanted to end up entangled between him and Andrea again.
However, I wouldn''t want my child to be born without a father either.
Seeing that I was in a daze, Monique sighed, as though she didn''t know what to do with me, "Forget it.
Just go back to Hendrix. You will eventually want to leave him for good after getting disappointed a few
more times."
She then went into the washroom.
When she came out, she looked at me and asked while she was drying her hair, "What do you want to
eatter?"
"Anything!" I envied how decisive and resolute Monique was. I would never be able to hold on or let go
of anything that easily. I had always hated that side of me.
Andnd was indeed a great ce to live at. The pace of life was slower, and the housing prices were
much lower. Not only that, the climate there was warm andfortable, and they had delicacies all
over the ce too. There was also plenty ofndscaping designed along the streets and the suburban
areas.
Flowers in Andnd bloomed all year round.
No wonder Josiah once rmended me to live there.
Monique loved eating, more so when she was pregnant. She didn''t have to worry about gaining weight,
and she wasn''t experiencing severe morning sickness either. We were basically eating non-stop for a

couple of days we stayed in Andnd.
Monique nned to stay in the countryside for a few days after spending time in Andnd. But I didn''t
go there with her.
No matter what might happen in the future, I had to meet Hendrix and make things clear between us.
I bought the ticket back to Ucrebury while Monique bought the ticket to the countryside. We went our
separate ways at the railway tform. As I boarded on the high-speed rail, I sat by the window.
Back when I was still a child, almost every adult living in Hovell knew how to sing a song titled
"Farewell Station". I didn''t understand why it was popr among adults at that time.
Now that I thought about it, that song represented the youth of their whole generation. In an era where
the inte was underdeveloped, there was no other tform for them to express their emotions other
than love letters or song lyrics.
I was nkly thinking about the old times that I didn''t notice that Aaron had sat beside me. I only turned
around and saw him after the train started to move.
"Hi, Arianna. What a coincidence!" he said with a smile.
I looked away, ignoring his wide grin. I was annoyed. Aaron was very good at IT, so it wasn''t hard for
him to arrange a seat beside me.
"What do you want, Aaron?" I asked. I always thought of myself as someone ordinary and mediocre. I
didn''t know what in me was making hime back to me over and over again.
"A sense of belonging," He said as he looked at the scenery outside the window.
A sense of belonging?
