Chapter 3

  "What's wrong?" I asked.

  There was a time when I felt uncomfortable in my eyes at the beginning of our relationship. The doctor examined me and said that I might have slight night blindness and needed more carrots.

  But I had disliked carrots since I was a child. At that time, Bryce had tried every means to prepare carrot dishes for me just so that I could eat more.

  Steamed carrots, stir-fried carrot shreds, carrot pancakes, carrot stuffing dumplings... Even in the early days of our business, when we didn't have enough money, he bought a juicer and made carrot juice for me every now and then.

  He would eat carrots with me a few times a week.

  I was getting used to eating carrots.

  But at this time, the juicer had been forgot at the storeroom for long, and I was the only one to eat the dumplings stuffed with carrots.

  Bryce forcefully stuffed a piece into his mouth and said, "Make dumplings with pork and scallion next time!"

  On Friday afternoon, Bryce came back early with my favorite crayfish with spicy crayfish.

  He peeled one and put it into my mouth. He didn't forget to wipe the grease from the corner of my mouth with a tissue and said, "Little greedy cat."

  At this moment, there was still some warmth between us.

  The next second, his cell phone on the table rang. He glanced at the screen and saw me out of the corner of his eye. Then, he hung up hesitantly and decisively.

  "Why don't you answer it?" I stuffed the crayfish into my mouth and asked him innocently.

  "An unknown number," Bryce said with concerns in his eyes. "It may be for sell something."

  However, I could clearly Eva's name on the screen.

  Sure enough, when night fell, Bryce left home, saying that he had something to do at the company.

  When I woke up, it was five o'clock in the morning. I was alone on the bed.

  Bryce had not returned all night.

  I knew that he had gone to Eva, because she had posted something on TikTok three hours ago, [It feels so good to be taken good care of, when I'm sick.]

  In the corner of the photo, there was a blurred figure.

  At first glance, I recognized that it was Bryce. On his left ring finger, which was holding his temple, there was our wedding ring.

  It was located in a hotel near Disneyland.

  How ironic.

  I sent a message to Bryce, [Hubby, where are you?]

  Bryce replied almost instantly. It seemed that he had stayed up all night to take care of Eva!,

  [I've just finished today's work. I'm resting here,] Bryce lied.

  [Is it difficult to be dealt with?] I asked.

  [It's almost done.]

  I stared at the screen. He thought that it was a perfect lie. I sneered, "Bryce, you swore that if you betrayed me, you would be struck by lightning."

  I didn't want you to die so easily,

  You should suffer before you died.

  Probably feeling a little guilty, Bryce sent a voice message, "I'll take you to a big meal after I'm done with my work, okay?"

  I said coquettishly, "I just want you to have hot pot with me today."

  He hesitated for a few seconds. "Okay, I'll be back early tonight."

  However, Bryce still broke his promise.

  07

  I was in Grand Central Terminal. It was very busy today. I sat by the window and called Bryce for the second time tonight.

  "Have you arrived at the station?"

  Thirty minutes ago, Bryce said that he was still in Orlando and would find a way to come back early.

  He deliberately lowered his voice and said apologetically, "Yolanda, it may take a while."

  "It's okay. I'll wait for you."

Thirty minutes later, the boiled soup was completely cold, and Bryce called back.

  "I'm sorry, honey. I missed the train. I'll drive back later."

  However, after two hours of driving, the mall would be closed for sure.

  I comforted him tenderly, "It's fine if you can't make it back. It's just a meal. We can take a rain check."

  There was a hint of guilt in his tone, "Then, I'll come back to celebrate a late Valentine's day with you tomorrow."

  Along with the message, he also transferred some money as a gift.

  "Thank you, honey."

  If he didn't accept it, it would be a waste.

  He lied to me again. He didn't have a train to catch up at all. He was just obsessed with the tenderness of Eva.

  Bryce must have thought that he had hidden it very well, but I still saw the side of his face with a slight smile on Eva's TikTok, as well as Evan holding a bunch of champagne roses in her arms.

  Under the gorgeous fireworks of Disneyland, the two of them stood side by side, like a perfect couple,

  accompanied with romantic words: [You are the brightest fireworks in my life.]

  Her followers gave a lot of likes.

  However, I scoffed at her. He didn't want come back, and I didn't care about it.

  Of course, love and marriage were fair.

  He could accompany Eva to watch gorgeous fireworks in Disneyland on Valentine's Day. Naturally, there was someone, willing to accompany me to admire the moon and talk all night.

  I opened WhatsApp and found him. I asked, [Hey handsome guy, wanna go out?]
