Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 1152
Quin locked the door as soon as she returned to her room.
She wept silently as a wave of loneliness crept in. Tears started rolling down her cheeks as her body clammed up to the rhythm of her sobs.
She wiped the tears and ripped a piece of paper out of her notebook from the cupboard just above her bed. She looked at it blankly as a thought flashed across her mind all of a sudden.
She let out a deep sigh and whispered to herself, "When we first got married, I never thought that we would become like this."
"I thought I would hate you, and get a divorce after our contract ended. However, I realized how much I've gotten used to this kind of life." Her tears wet the back of her hands.
"I've gotten used to you being by my side, and when I needed help, or when I was weak, even when I was hesitant."
"I have no idea how many times you have helped me over the past year. I'm unsure when I've made room for you in my heart." She took a piece of tissue paper and wiped off the tears on her cheeks. "You are my savior, my lucky star, and my husband. I want to be with you forever."
"However, it seems that the chance has passed." Once again, she buried her head between her legs.
"You have done so much and risked too much for me. I am not worthy of you, and I don't want to see you live in such a life with me either."
"So, it's time for me to make a choice. I can't be so selfish. I can't continue to keep you by my side and let you continue to risk everything for me." She lifted her head and patted on her chest. "From now on, I hope you can live your life well without me."
"It doesn't matter if it's Momo, Lily, Winnie, Yuri, Xenia, or Mindy. They are all good ladies and better choices than I am. I wish you absolute happiness."
An air of melancholy surrounded Quin as she sobbed silently.
She kept the paper in the notebook and tried to calm herself down, pretending as if nothing had happened.
Meanwhile, Fade had no idea what she was thinking at all.
The next day, Quin, Lily, and some of the executives of the company returned to Dragonville after wrapping up everything at work.
Fade and Momo, on the other hand, were preparing to return to South Bay City.
However, before leaving, Fade purposefully went to inquire about the latest situation of Harper, Sonia, and Abell was in.
Initially, Fade asked Falcon to take them away, teach them a lesson and send them away. However, what happened had shocked Fade.
Fade never expected Falcon to end up training them after taking them to the Stealth.
These three spoiled brats were throwing tantrums again like little kids soon after Fade left them.
Besides being disobedient, they even retaliated at the Stealth. They also threatened that they would get someone to beat the members of the Stealth up and vanquish them eventually through their family connections.
As a result, the Stealth was furious, especially when the person in charge knew that Abell was part of them.
Therefore, the person in charge designed a set of special training for them and kept them at the Stealth Team base to shape their characters and force them to reflect upon their actions.
Fade thought that they had already gone back to Jade City long ago. Little did he know they were still training in the Stealth, albeit in much agony.
Fade was over the moon.
After all, a little training and lesson wouldn't hurt them.
After that, Fade and Momo briefly packed up their stuff and took a plane to South Bay City.
They arrived shortly as South Bay City was not far from Jade City.
After getting off the plane, Momo tried to call the Soo family to pick them up.
However, something caught her mind just as she was about to dial the phone. She hung up abruptly, "I almost forgot something important."
"What's the matter?" Fade looked at Momo curiously.
Momo answered, "I need to buy some gifts before going back to my house."
"Gifts?" Fade parroted.
Momo explained, "I am bringing you back as their son-in-law; of course, I have to prepare some gifts for my family members. Otherwise, they are going to look down on you."
Fade was startled as he did not consider this at all.
"Well, as their son-in-law, I should indeed get some gifts for them." Fade chuckled.
Memo's face blushed at once. She glared at Fade and said, "Fade, you're teasing me again. Hmph!"
Fade tousled Momo's hair and replied, "You silly girl. How could you say that I'm teasing you when I'm actually helping you? Should I leave you to go back home alone?"
"Alright, Fade. I'll listen to you. Don't leave. Let's buy some gifts," Momo grabbed Fade's arm and begged him.
Fade nodded and responded, "Yeah. However, I don't know what they like. You'll have to give some suggestions."
Momo patted her chest. "Don't worry, I'll handle it."
Then, Momo hired a cab and told the driver, "Pentagon Street, please."
Then, the driver started driving.
Momo explained to Fade, "Pentagon Street is a famous antique street in South Bay City, with all kinds of antiques, calligraphies, paintings, jade, gems, and many more. It's really well-known." "The Soo family has been around for very long. Some of our ancestors were top scholars in their respective times and eras. Hence, we are considered a family of scholars. In general, everyone in my family likes antiques, calligraphies, and paintings," told Momo.
"Especially my grandfather, Egbert Soo. He collects calligraphies and paintings as his pastime. So, we have to get a piece of nice calligraphy to keep him happy."
Fade nodded as he listened to Momo.
Soon, they arrived at Pentagon Street. As soon as they got off the cab, Fade saw various goods being sold at the stalls. The stall owners were welcoming the guests warmly, attracting them to their stalls. The customers were carefully inspecting the antiques with their magnifying glasses. They were trying to look for any flaws that could knock the price down for a couple of notches.
However, Momo did not stop by these stalls. She walked into the street instead. "Most of the goods at the stalls outside are fake. It's impossible to find a flaw. Those could only trick people who don't know the industry. We have to get into the well-known shops to get the real deal."
