Chapter 43 Mr. Harmon Forever
When an issued an order, no one dared disobey him. I tried to speak several times, but he silenced me with his cold gaze every time. In the end, Leonard and I were sent back to
The fact was that we had a .oom here at the Harmon residence, but we barely stayed in it. He always brought women back to our own home, and he certainly wasn’t willing to stay here.
was decorated in my favorite style and felt a lump in my throat. Our staff remained unchanged, but the same couldn’t be said for me and Leonard.

I was so happy when I got married, and it was because of that I was very disheartened now. Teven thought that the Harmons accepted me as a part of the family when I first stepped foot into this place. In the end, reality woke me up by giving me a mean skap.
I washed up and lay on the bed. The nurse sent me a text, reminding me to do the chemotherapy tomorrow, I thought back to the side effects of the previous chemotherapy and
text to Emma at the end asked her to pick me up from the Harmon residence tomorrow.
Emma replied to me, “Are you two back at the Harmon residence? Is it because of the scandals on the internet? Don’t worry. I’ll be there first thing in the morning. I won’t let the Hannons pick on you
I looked at the emoticon Emma sent over and couldn’t help but chockle it warmed my heart as well. It seemed like she had been protecting me ever since I came back to the
country.
Leonard had just finished taking a shower. He coughed deliberately and asked, “Who are you texting? Why do you look so happy?”
Trolled over and burned my back to him. Everything was excellent here. It was just that there was only abed.
Leonard looked at me, feeling frustrated. He poked at my shoulder and said, “Why did you eat your hair short? It doesn’t look nice.”
“Mind your own freaking business. I didn’t do the haircut for you!” I shook my shoulder impatiently and moved further away, Leonard sat behind me and bore a hole into my back with his eyes.
“Tsk. Are you sleeping? I’m going to turn off the lights.” trose and wanted to get the remote, but he yanked at my arm. It was as if he was concerned that he might’ve hurt me. So, he loosened his grip a little, but he didn’t let it go.
“Stopcausing trouble, Eva. You can remain Mrs. Hammon forever it you behave,”
I was stunned momentarily before I stared at him and gave him a puzzled look. Leonard pursed his lips and let go of my hand.
“You’re my wife. No one can take that away from you I’ll buy you clothes. You can also have the jewelry and handbags. It felt like Leonard was finding it hard to say what he said His face actually turned red.
The way Leonard looked now reminded me so much of how he used to look, but it remained a distant memory. In the past, he would never have asked me to stop causing him trouble Instead, he’d say that it was all his fault before asking me to stop being mad
Leonard would even tell me
tell me that staying angry would make a lady age faster. He didn’t mind that I was old, but he was concerned that I’d think I was not pretty
I took a deep breath and suppressed the beautiful memories. My emotions were much more in control, too. “Do you remember the story behind the jewelry Lily took away. Leonard?
This time, it was his tum to give me a puzzled look. Hnew it. He didn’t remember a thing about them”
“The necklace Lily wore was a gift you gave me on the day that we got our marriage certificate. You told me that the sky was as blue as the lapis lazuli on the ring.
As for the two rings on her fingers, one of them was a wedding anniversary gift you gave me. The other one was a matching ring you bought after we got married for one week. “The earring she wore was my first birthday gift after I returned to the country. You custom–made it for me”
Leonard pared his lips, and his eyes were brimming with guit. In the end, he said softly and despondently, “I’m sorry”
Iwawed understandingly. “‘s okay, really. You don’t remember it, and I don’t care about it. Don’t you think it worked out well?
Leonard looked at me frantically and shook his head repeatedly. Meanwhile, I didn’t intend to say anything anymore. I turned my back to him and lay down. I probably hit a close to home because I heard him snitling
However, why would he cry? If anyone should be crying, it should’ve been met was just that I didn’t want to shed another tear for him anymore.
About ten minutes later, I wanted to turn off the light again. However, he gripped my hand again,
“I’ll buy you the jewelry again if you don’t like them anymore. Just don’t..”
“How are you still not getting it, Leonard?” I burned around and looked at him without a shred of emotion. “You don’t remember what they meant to us, and I don’t want any jewelry that the others have bouched. So, they’re worthless now.
“If you truly feel sorry, then transfer the money to me instead.” I took the remote and turned on all the lights. Then, I added, “Remember to remark that you’re voluntarily giving me the money. I don’t want to hear you saying the money is yours at a later date.”
