Chapter 1552


    We left the house soon after that. Hendrix drove while I sat in the passenger seat and looked out of


    the window. The gloomy Jarold City weather had suddenly cleared up. It was rare to see the clear


    blue sky.


    "It''s almost the end of the month. It''s also rare to see the sky looking so sunny. By the way,


    Christmas is right around the corner. I wonder if it will snow!" It seemed that it snowed every year in


    Jarold City. If it snowed this year as well, then Christmas would be a very likely asion.


    Thinking of this, I couldn''t help but start nning for Christmas. For so many years, it seemed that


    we had never celebrated Christmas seriously.


    Hendrix drove the car and looked straight ahead. "Is there anything you want for Christmas?"


    I turned to look at him and pursed my lips. "Mr. Roberts, do you realize that our rtionship is too


    boring? It''s like we have been married for decades. There''s no longer any passion in our


    rtionship."


    He frowned slightly, then stopped the car at the side of the road and stared at me with deep eyes.


    "So, do you mean that I should find something fun


    to do?"


    Seeing that he had suddenly stopped the car, I couldn''t help saying, "Why did you suddenly stop the


    car? Aren''t we going to see Aunt Nerissa?"


    He leaned closer towards me. "Let''s talk about our problems first."


    "What''s the problem?"


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    "Our passion!"


    I was dumbfounded andughed. "That''s not what I mean. I mean that we are actually doing quite


    well, you..."


    "How well?" He stared at me as if he was trying to tease me. I was stunned and then couldn''t help


    but re at him. "Hendrix, stop making such a big deal out of this!"


    At myment, he was stupefied and did not respond. Then I added, "I''m just casually bringing it


    up. Why are you taking it so seriously? Why did you stop? Aren''t we going to Aunt Nerissa''s ce?


    What if the traffic is bad? When are we going to arrive then?"


    He was a little stunned. I pushed him back to his seat and stared at him, "You should focus on


    driving! Don''t get into an ident!"


    Hendrix obeyed mymands and started the car. He continued to drive with a slightly puzzled


    look on his face, but after a while, he nced at me and frowned. "When did you learn to divert


    attention like this?"


    I yed dumb. "What do you mean to divert attention? I''m just telling you to keep your eyes on the


    road and not oveplicate things."


    I pushed his face towards the road and said seriously, "I''m just casually bringing this up. Can you


    not be so serious about it? It''s really hard for me to strike a conversation with you if you keep this


    up."


    "Alright!" He responded.


    Nerissa had returned to Jarold City, and her ce was very close by. Fortunately, the traffic was


    quite smooth all the way there.


    She had bought a house in the city. It was located in a residential area and came equipped with an


    elevator. When we reached there, Nerissa and Jarred were waiting for us downstairs. When they


    saw us, they smiled and greeted us, "Was the traffic bad? We have been waiting for you for so long.


    Come, let''s head upstairs!"
