Chapter 108 Melinda Decided to Sleep in Separate Rooms Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
As the duo sat in the Lamborghini, Stanley said to the driver, “Take us home.” Then, he pulled down the panel.
The space was cramped, and Melinda was sitting beside him. They had mixed feelings as they felt each other’s presence. Melinda couldn’t imagine what Stanley and Monica would do in the office if she hadn’t come over. After all, Stanley had a secret room with a bed inside! Moreover, he was upset about her and Mervin.
They both had their pride and kept silent until they arrived home. Still, none of them broke the silence. Melinda exited the car and strode into the living room. On the other hand, Stanley stood in the front yard momentarily before following behind Melinda with a dark expression.
“Madam…” Before Gael could say anything, Melinda had gone upstairs.
Soon, he saw Stanley enter the house.
“Mr. Fox…”
Stanley quickened his pace and walked upstairs without stopping.
Everything happened too quickly, and Gael couldn’t find the opportunity to speak. What happened to them? Did they get into a fight again?
On the other hand, Melinda entered the children’s room and locked the door.
“Mommy?” Samuel and Pamela were startled. They glanced at each other before looking back at her. “What happened?”novelxo.com fast update
“I’m here to sleep with you guys, my darlings.” Melinda smiled. She walked toward the bed and lay on it. “Is it okay if Mommy sleeps here tonight?”
The children said nothing and looked at each other. They seemed to have realized what was happening. Samuel quickly went to the window and saw Stanley’s car on the porch. Daddy is back! thought Stanley.
“Did you and Daddy get into a fight?” asked Pamela.
Melinda smiled and shook her head. “No. It’s just that I miss you guys.”
Hearing her words, Samuel and Pamela exchanged glances but said nothing. They could feel that something was amiss.
In the meantime, Stanley went to the master bedroom. He was startled when he opened the door and didn’t see Melinda in sight. At this moment, Sherry walked past him. He turned around and asked, “Have you seen Melinda, Ms. Veronica?”
“She is in the children’s room, Mr. Fox. I assume that she will be sleeping there tonight.”
Hearing her words, Stanley went into the master bedroom with a stoic expression. He closed the door, took a bath, and went to sleep. He wasn’t expecting her to come back either.
Downstairs in the living room, it was brightly lit. However, the atmosphere was heavy. After Sherry came downstairs, she walked toward Gael and whispered, “Madam is sleeping in the children’s room. Did you tell Mr. Fox about the cake?”
“I didn’t get the chance to tell him” Gael sighed. “It seems like they have gotten into a fight.”
“Oh my…” Sherry looked worried.
The next morning, Melinda woke up early. After she washed herself, she went to the closet and changed into something beautiful and comfy.
In the living room, Gael asked politely when he saw her carrying a backpack, “Where are you going, Madam? Do you want to have breakfast?”
“I’m going to meet a friend. We’ll be out all day.” Melinda sounded happy as if nothing had happened yesterday.
Although Gael wanted her to stay, he couldn’t find any reason to do so.
Upstairs in the bedroom, Stanley stood by the window with his hands behind his back. He had a dark expression as he watched Melinda enter the car and leave. She is the reason why I had a hard time sleeping yesterday, he thought.
This was the first time Jessica was invited to go out by Melinda, and she was thrilled. In order to make sure Melinda had fun, she even called a bunch of friends over. To her, Melinda was a cute person. She was the type of person that Jessica adored.
When Gael returned to his senses, he saw Stanley walking down the stairs. “Good morning, Mr. Fox.”
Stanley pursed his lips and looked tense. His mood was different from Melinda’s, but Gael still decided to tell him about it. “Madam baked you a cake yesterday, Mr. Fox. She did everything herself and spent four hours in the kitchen. Just as she finally saw your car enter the porch, you didn’t enter the house. She was so disappointed that she didn’t even have dinner….”
