Every Breath You Take

Chapter 12



After hanging up the phone, Monica fell asleep. Because there was no phone call from Roland Wang, and she was too sleepy, she slept at noon.

After getting up, she saw her uncle Xanjer Mo sitting on the sofa with a worried look. "Moni, we may have to move!"

"Why?"

"I just saw an announcement posted in the hall saying that VSUS had bought this place to build a large shopping mall." Uncle sighed. "Now the housing price is so high, and our house is small. The cost of demolition is not enough to buy a new house."

Monica lowered her head. "Uncle, I'm sorry! It's all my fault."

When she was in college, she swore to give a good life for her uncle, but she couldn't stop Quarmy Huo from pursuing her and ending up entering the marriage with him.

In the eyes of the members of the Huo family, she was a true Cinderella. She had no family background or money. Other than her face, there was nothing else worth mentioning.

Quarmy Huo's mother, Jenny Sun, had been unhappy about her and Quarmy Huo's affairs. Before they got married, the parents of the two sides had said something unpleasant. Although her uncle was poor, he was tough. In the past few years when she married Quarmy Huo, he did not take the initiative to visit the Huo family, let alone ask her for a penny.

Later, when she got divorced, she went out of her house without a penny. In the end, she returned to Jiang City with nothing but to go to her uncle. Her uncle was fired a few days after she returned to Jiang City. It never rains, but it pours.

Her uncle was not well-educated, and he was not in good health. At that time, Monica was so angry that she was looking for a job everywhere, but no company was willing to accept her. Even if she went to a restaurant to do a wash pot, no one was willing to accept her.

Life became more and more difficult without a source of income. Her uncle's low amount of social security was not enough for the live expense, and then so many things happened... Fortunately, she had Leon Gu...

Thinking of Leon Gu, she sighed. She knew very well how much Leon Gu had done for her and Leon Gu was also very clear about how he felt for her.

However, she was even more clear about how high standard of Gu family. The Gu family wouldn't even accept her when she wasn't divorced, let alone she was a divorced woman with a kid. It was even more impossible for her to dream about it.

Old lady Gu was right. As the eldest son of the Gu family, the burden on his shoulders was exceedingly heavy. There were so many descendants of the Gu family staring at the Gu family covetously. She could not be selfish to drag Leon Gu down. Leon Gu was already in his thirties and should not waste his youth for a woman like her. The Gu family's big business was still waiting for him to take over.

She had owed Leon Gu a lot. She could not owe him anymore. She had to rely on herself. Only when she became strong could Leon Gu rest assured.

The job of Roland Wang was introduced by Leon Gu. To be honest, she actually disliked Roland Wang very much, but she had no choice. Although Roland Wang was a playboy, he was generous and gave her a high salary. She just had to bear him a little.

Monica had planned to wait for a few years until she had enough to cover her own expense. However, she did not expect Roland Wang could be interested in her. Being targeted by a psycho like Roland Wang was not easy to get rid of. She had to quit this job.

After a casual meal, Monica left the room with her backpack on her shoulders. She had to find a job to solve the urgent matter first.

When she got out of the hall, she saw a bus coming to the station from afar. She ran to it with all her strength. With a sharp braking sound, a red Toyota stopped slightly away from her.

Monica was shocked and subconsciously stopped. The other party was also scared. She opened the window and shouted at her rudely, "Are you blind when you walk?"

"I'm sorry!" Monica apologized, when they looked at each other. The other said in surprise, "Monica!"
