In the end, Tracy had no choice but to accompany Melissa all the time. It was more than ten o'clock. In the room filled with gems, Tracy was absent-minded, and tears still fell down.
In fact, she had always been willful. She could see what he had done for her, including the "cat eye" here. He had risked his life to collect the gem for her. Tracy believed that with so many rare treasures here, it would definitely not be easy for him to get it, and Brody must have risked his life many times to collect the gem.
"Mommy, why are you crying?" A clear voice sounded, Tracy came to her senses and lowered her head. Melissa was looking at her with her confused big eyes. Tracy shook her head, squatted down and touched her clear face. "Mommy is happy!"
The dreamlike light enveloped the two people, and a sense of happiness surrounded them closely. Tracy sensed that there was an empty space beside her.
Because in the past, as long as she stepped into this room, he would follow her closely. But this time, he was not there. A trace of confusion flashed through Tracy's eyes. She didn't see him since dinner was finished.
"Melissa, let's go to bed, okay?"
Melissa nodded obediently, "Yes, but I don't want to go to school tomorrow."
Tracy refused decisively, "No way!"
Melissa pursed her lips and nodded reluctantly.
After she arranged Melissa to fall asleep, she finally found him in the study. Looking at his serious and attentive look, her heart ached like a knife.
When she moved to his side, he was still focused on reading the documents. Tracy grabbed the pen from his hand, feeling sorry for him. It was not until then that he raised his head suddenly that he noticed her.
She pushed the document away and looked at him sadly. "It's time to go to bed. It's too late. You'll get sick. It's affecting your recovery!"
With a smile, he turned around and put his arm around her waist. "It's okay. Why don't you sleep? Or... " He paused for a moment, and an evil smile appeared in his black eyes. "Or... Miss me... "
He said these words meaningfully and looked at her half covered chest. Tracy blushed and pushed him away. "Don't think too much!"
With a smile, he stood up and said, "Look, I don't even have the strength to hold you!"
She didn't know whether to cry or to laugh. "Do you want to hold me all the time?"
He put his arm around her waist and stared at her face with his passionate eyes. "I want to... I miss you so much! "
Tracy removed his arm and looked at him seriously, "Don't stay up late!"
Brody didn't think so, "Have you finished cleaning up?"
Tracy smiled again and said, "I want to clean it up, but everything is still the same as before. There is nothing to clean up. Besides, I played with Melissa. She is too naughty!"
"The same as Wendy!" But when he finished, his eyes were full of pain. Seeing this, Tracy touched his face with her little hand and said, "Anyway, we should accept the fact, shouldn't we? Don't be sad! "
Brody looked at her with a playful smile and said, "I thought you were going to say that it was also a mistake!"
Tracy forced a smile and said, "Wendy... I... Really... "
"It's okay. I know!" Brody interrupted her.
Tracy threw herself into his arms and hugged him, "Didn't she say that she lived two more months? There are so many cancer patients in the world, and they still have a few more years to live. Trust me, there will be a bright day! "
"When did you become so optimistic?"
Without raising her head, Tracy said, "I've always been optimistic, but you've gone too far!"
Brody's face froze for a moment. He said with fear of losing, "Tracy, I have dealt with our affairs. You will see the result tomorrow. Will you stay with me all the time? "
Tracy raised her head and looked at him plaintively, "It's you who has been driving me away."
Brody was satisfied with her answer. Soon, Tracy's face turned gloomy again. In fact, I'm thinking of Ben! " She said the name of Ben stiffly.
Brody's face froze. Tracy murmured, "He is really good to me. For me, he abandoned Wendy. Six years ago, he made an agreement with Wendy. Two years later, he would marry Wendy, but when she came back, he took me away. Then he married me. Wendy is... "
Tears welled up in Tracy's eyes. "That's their business. It has nothing to do with you. You don't have to blame yourself!"
"But... I'm really sorry. He abandoned his reputation and even the people he loves for me... "
Brody suddenly interrupted her seriously, "He is just sympathizing with you!"
Tracy's face froze and said sadly, "How could you talk about him like this? He is not that kind of person! "
With a complicated look on his face, Brody opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. Tracy hugged him and said helplessly, "What do you think we should do?"
Brody pulled a long face and said, "Don't miss him. I'll be angry!"
A smile appeared on Tracy's pale face. She beat him and said, "Don't worry. Ben doesn't love me. He loves Wendy!"
