Surprised Wife With Twins -
Chapter 1362: Willing to Face It Together
Monica's heart was in turmoil as well.
"Is that it?" Tristan's gaze locked onto her, wanting to know her innerthoughts.
"Of course not." Monica avoided his eyes, then looked down again, hertone firm. "I won't go on any more blind dates with anyone unless theykill me and drag my corpse along!"
Tristan looked at her with a mix of pity and happiness, as if seeing thesadness in her heart. But her words made him happy.
"Don't worry, I'll explain everything!" Monica bravely looked up, thinkingthat it would only give her a headache. “I won't waste your timeanymore, I'll take care of everything and not cause you any moretrouble.”
Upon hearing this, Tristan wasn't happy. What was she trying to do?Distance herself from him?
As their eyes met, the man's gaze was dark and deep. "Monica,actually...”
Just then, Monica's phone rang, the ringtone interrupting Tristan'sunfinished words.
She glanced at the screen and saw that it was her mother calling.Looking at the caller ID, she hesitated.
Tristan saw the note on the screen too. "Answer it," he told her.Monica's head felt overwhelmed, and her heart was troubled. Herparents’ issues had already affected her.
Under Tristan's watchful gaze, she finally answered, "..."
"Which floor?" Belinda's icy voice came through. “I'm downstairs at therestaurant.”
The girl's chest tightened suddenly as she looked up and met Tristan'sgaze!
The private room was quiet, so even without the speakerphone on,Tristan could hear the cold tone in Belinda's mother's voice. Before thegirl could speak, he replied gently, "Auntie, we are on the 58th floor,turn left after exiting the elevator, and it's the first room. I will meet youat the door.”
Belinda didn't respond; she hung up the phone directly. Monicaclutched her phone nervously, her heart filled with a hint of panic."Tristan, I..."
“It's alright." He had already handed over the company's affairs toKevin; tonight's time belonged to him. "Facing it together is better thanfacing it alone. Sit down first.” After saying that, he strode towards thedoor.
He thought to himself that since she could leave her mother alone tocome here, it meant Monica cared about him. She hadn't stood him up.Monica closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and bit her lip. Given hermother's personality, it was hard to imagine what would happen next.But with her ability, it seemed she could not stop it.
Feeling embarrassed that Tristan would learn about her family affairs,she wondered if even Tristan would be dragged into her parents’battles. To prevent her father's call from coming in again and makingthe situation worse, she silenced her phone.
Soon, Tristan saw the elevator door open at the entrance, andBelinda's mother emerged with a cold expression. "Hello, Auntie,”Tristan greeted her warmly and politely. "Please come in."
Belinda glanced at him and walked towards them in her high heels, hermood clearly written on her face, not hiding it at all. She passed byTristan and entered the private room directly.
She was furious about her daughter's departure! If her daughter waswith Tristan, it meant she was siding with Algerone Swain. This wassomething Belinda couldn't bear! Her daughter was raised with her ownhard work!
Monica stood in front of the dining table, looking at her mother's hostileappearance and whispered, "Mom." Tristan entered the room as well.He glanced at the table full of dishes and spoke like a gentleman, "Let'ssit and eat while we talk. I've cleared my schedule for tonight, so there'sno rush." The words were meant for Belinda's mother.
Belinda sat down in the chair, putting her purse aside and looked up athim. "That's good because there are a few things I want to say to bothof you. In summary, I don't agree with the two of you being together."
