On the phone, Jeanne's gentle voice was heard. "Didn't you just come back from a business trip? Why aren't you resting earlier?"
"I just got off the plane and am on my way home." Monica was easily led astray.
"You came back so late?"
"It's all because my dad isn't in good health. If there's a business trip, I have to go. A flower like me will be crippled by my father sooner or later," Monica complained.
Jeanne could not help but laugh.
She felt that it was a happy thing to have Monica by her side.
The two of them chatted for a long time.
Monica said, "I'm at the garage. Let's talk tomorrow."
"Rest early."
"Okay." Monica hung up the phone.
The car was parked properly.
After the driver opened the car door for Monica, he took out her luggage and sent it into the elevator.
"Thank you for your hard work," Monica said gently to the chauffeur.
The chauffeur said respectfully, "Take care, Ms.
Cardellini."
Monica nodded.
When the elevator closed, Monica looked at the number on the elevator.
'It's midnight. Finn, that b*sstard, should be asleep by now!'
The elevator arrived at her floor.
Monica pushed the huge suitcase out.
After pressing on the fingerprint lock, she found that the house was indeed quiet.
She knew that Finn must be asleep.
Well, Finn had always been a disciplined person. He would go to bed before 11:00 pm, and there was no reason for him not to sleep. Moreover, he did not know that Monica would be back today.
Every time Monica went on a business trip, whether it was before she left, returned, or the few days she was gone, the two of them would never have any contact.
'How could such a marriage... be considered a marriage?'
'We should just end it as soon as possible!'
Monica thought fiercely while she pushed her luggage back to her room quietly, trying her best not to disturb anyone.
She went back to her bedroom and opened her luggage to take out some necessities.
The moment she opened her luggage, her eyes paused.
When Monica saw a leather belt overseas, she felt that it was very suitable for Finn. It was simple and low-key. In short, at first glance, she felt that it was very compatible with that b*stard. Monica guessed that Finn's birthday would be in a few days, so she bought it as a birthday present. It was not very expensive anyway.
Monica hesitated for a moment before picking it up and walking out of the room. Then, she walked to Finn's bedroom and knocked on the door.
For some reason, she felt a little excited.
Monica took a deep breath to make herself look normal.
She had even thought of how to give it to Finn so that they would not be embarrassed..
The door suddenly opened.
Monica was about to hand over the gift box when her hand stiffened, and her eyes froze.
It was not Finn who opened the door, but Finn's old lover... Patsy Larson.
Patsy looked at Monica in her pajamas and asked, "Looking for Finn?"
Monica came back to her senses.
Then, she smiled naturally. "It's nothing much."
Patsy looked straight at her.
Monica said, "I just wanted to let him know that I'm back. Of course, you can pretend that I don't exist."
Then, Monica turned around and left.
At that moment, Finn walked out of the room and looked at Monica, who had left.
Patsy said, "She just wanted to let you know that she's back."
Finn nodded slightly.
"Finn," Patsy called out to him, "I'm sleepy. Can I sleep now?"
"The bed is made. Go to sleep."
