Every Breath You Take

Chapter 69

The stage was covered with obstacles. If he fell down, his first reaction must be to protect himself. If

Evan only cared about himself, then Monica, who was on his back, would definitely fall out of inertia. If Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

so, the consequences would be serious.

Just as Quarmy stood up, something unexpected happened. Evan didn't only care about himself as

everyone had expected. His first reaction was to protect Monica, who was on his back.

Because of it, Monica was not thrown out by inertia, but continued to be kept on his back by his hands.

However, Evan was not so lucky as her. He fell forward and fell heavily on the barrier.

All the staff rushed up, and Evan's forehead was scraped against the barrier. Monica was not injured

but was a little frightened.

Seeing that Monica wasn't injured, Quarmy sat down again and looked at Noah coldly. Noah quickly

lowered his voice and clarified, "I didn't do it! I still haven't thought of a solution!"

The staff went up to rescue them. Someone asked Evan how he was doing and if he needed a doctor.

He replied, "It's no big deal. It's just a minor injury. I'm not that delicate!"

Monica looked at the wound on his forehead and took out a handkerchief. Seeing this, Quarmy's face

darkened. Noah snorted and said, "Interesting! He was already at the finish line, yet he suddenly made

such a move. There's no oil on the stage. Why did he fall?"

Quarmy's eyes darkened, but he didn't say anything.

Things settled down quickly. Evan insisted that he was fine and could continue the following parts. After

confirming that he was fine, the program started the fourth round.

In the fourth round, the male guests would declare love to Monica. Because of what happened just

now, Monica kept her eyes on Evan. When he was in danger, he didn't think about his own safety,

which touched her so much. She had suffered so much that she needed such a man. Therefore, she

liked Evan more and didn't pay much attention to the other male guests.

Soon, it was Evan's turn to make a confession, and he became very excited.

"I am a man without money, power or appearance. I am very excited to stand here and make a

declaration of love to you today." Evan's voice was a little choked. "I don't want to say words that are

too flashy, because if you choose me, our lives later on will have nothing to do with flashy but

mundane. So my love declaration is to tell you my story.

"Strictly speaking, my life has been miserable so far. My father cheated on my mother and abandoned

her when I was in high school. My mother could not accept this blow and chose to commit suicide, so

I've been an orphan since I was a teenager, and went through college with the support of my relatives.

After graduating from college, I fell in love with a girl in the same class. She is a city- born pampered

girl. We loved each other very much and naturally walked into the hall of marriage. At first, the marriage

was very happy, and so was I. Later, because the unit where I worked was not efficient, my in-laws

expressed their disgust at my lack of income. Coupled with some of my own reasons, my wife, with

whom I was in love for three years, eventually left me. Since I married penniless, I didn't take anything

with me when I got divorced."

Evan's story and everything Monica had been through were surprisingly similar. Monica was stunned

for a moment, and so was Quarmy.
