Chapter 71: She Could Not Wake Up from the Nightmare
Monroe’s Adam’s apple moved, and his eyes flashed red with anger.
Mary finally realized that something was wrong. She looked down at her exposed upper body, and with a scream, she slammed the door!
It was the first time in Monroe’s life that someone had slammed the door in front of him, but he wasn’t angry at all.
Instead, he sighed helplessly. This silly girl…
“Ah! F*ck!”
Mary screamed in mortification in the room. How could she appear in front of Monroe like that!?
Did he think that she was deliberately seducing him?
G.o.d knows! She hadn’t even reacted well!
Her b.r.e.a.s.t.s were completely exposed to him!
That time at the lake… had he almost lost his mind and kissed her?
No way in h.e.l.l!
Mary kept shaking her head and telling herself that they were brother and sister, she had to keep a safe distance from him!
Mary felt ashamed and embarra.s.sed. She took off her wet clothes, spread her arms and lay on the bed, telling herself to forget it and just pretend it was a dream!
When she woke up tomorrow, she would just continue to pretend that nothing had happened.
Monroe seemed to be standing outside the door. “Remember to change your clothes. Don’t catch a cold.”
Mary thought that this nightmare would never be forgotten.
It rained all night and when she woke up the next morning, the rain just continued falling and it did not seem like it was going to stop.
Mary took out her cell phone. The reception wasn’t good.
She changed into a T-shirt and jeans and went out of the room. Monroe and his men were there.
When they saw her come out, all the men in black stood up and greeted her respectfully, “Good morning, Miss Mary!”
Mary smiled and greeted them. “How are you? Breakfast?” She asked.
Mary’s gaze fell on the sumptuous breakfast on the dining table. She rubbed her belly.
The group ate breakfast and finally got to the main topic of the day.
Monroe began speaking. “I just received a message. Due to the heavy rain, the flight has been canceled.” He said.
Mary got up and flipped through her phone. “It seems that all flights to and from Warren City have been canceled!”
Adela let out a pained groan. “Then, won’t we be unable to go home again? How long are we going to stay here?”
Mary frowned and shook her head. “Yesterday, we were looking at the weather forecast, and it was still sunny. Today, all of a sudden…”
She opened the weather forecast list. For the next week, it would be raining.
This sudden change made her feel like she was hallucinating when she checked the weather forecast yesterday.
Monroe was sitting at the head of the table, and his expression was calm.
“It has stopped raining in New York. The weather change caused by the volcanic eruption has begun to affect Warren City! It’s as strange and sudden as the volcanic eruption. So, everyone may have to be prepared to fight a flood!”
Jim mumbled, “It feels like wherever we go, a disaster will follow!”
Sam retorted, “Blah blah blah, you big jinx! We will be lucky enough to overcome any disaster! It’s the same this time, we will definitely survive and go home!”
Sam’s words made everyone agree with him.
“Sam is the best!”
“Yeah –”
Mary was happy to see that everyone was full of confidence and that their willpower was not unexpectedly broken.
She looked at Monroe. Monroe was still staring at her, but when she turned around, Monroe immediately looked to the other side.
Mary secretly frowned. Wasn’t she the one who suffered last night?
Mary simply did not speak and listened to their discussion. “Boss, did you have a premonition yesterday? You bought so many supplies, like food and drinks, and even bought a batch of weapons! Our Boss sure is wise!”
Initially, everyone thought that Monroe was wasting his time, but they did not expect that the Boss would be a prophet.
Monroe said, “No, I was planning to provide supplies to everyone here before we left.”
Everyone was silent.
Monroe continued, “But it seems now, after looking at the circ.u.mstances, we lack supplies now. Let’s protect ourselves first.”
