Chapter 130 Early the next morning...
When Thomas went out, he told Mrs. Smith that he was going to wait at the cafe in advance. But in fact, he went to Anaville Airport.
He looked at the exit with a slightly complicated expression.
He had thought that he would never see Monica again in his life.
Although he was heartbroken, he had been slowly recovering and tried his best to get rid of this hopeless one-sided love.
However, Monica was back.
He didn’t know whether to be happy or sad.
No matter how he felt, the plane arrived on time.
He recognized the woman whom he hadn't seen for more than a year almost at first sight.
He looked at her almost greedily.
Her hair seemed to have grown a little longer.
However, she looked even more depressed than before.

Thomas pursed his lips.
He didn’t know why she had been reduced to this.
Monica chose the painter herself.
She had given up her identity, her family, and everything for that man.
She had once told him firmly that she would definitely be happy.
She said that she was content as long as she had love.
She said that she would never regret it in her life.
JM Chapter 130 But now that she was back, did she regret it? Thomas felt uncertain, but he still called out, “Monica.” Monica turned around in surprise. “Edie?” Then, she saw Thomas. She immediately frowned. “Thomas? How come it's you? | remember | didn't tell you when | would arrive. Where's Edie?” Thomas was slightly puzzled as he thought, “Edie?” Because of Ben's terrifying look, Monica had always been hiding as far away from him as possible.
The only time she called Ben “Edie” was when she asked him to help her out.
Now, why did she suddenly call Ben “Edie” so naturally? Although Thomas was puzzled, he still said honestly, “Ben informed me.” “Then why didn’t he come?” Monica glanced at him with dissatisfaction. “Did you tell him not to come? | know you are fond of me, but I've already said that | only think of you as a friend. Even if | decide to come back, there's no possibility between us.” Thomas fell silent.
Monica had always been so rude to him.
It was probably because she was sure that he liked her. So she had nothing to fear.
Thomas pursed his lips and said slowly, “Ben has nothing to do with you. He has no reason to pick you up.” “Thomas!” Monica was unhappy. “What's wrong with you? Edie‘ and | were husband and wife. How come he has nothing to do with me?” “Husband and wife?” Thomas asked calmly, “I almost knelt down to beg Ben for help.” Monica looked a little embarrassed, but she still insisted. “Edie and | grew up together. It's definitely not all because of you that he’s willing to marry me. He must have liked me.” Thomas frowned. “Monica, what are you dreaming about?” Chapter 130 “Dreaming about?” Monica was unhappy. “I'll call Edie now.” She picked up her phone and made a call.
“Why can’t | get through?” She frowned and tried again.
She still couldn't get through.
She wanted to try again.
“You've been blocked,” said Thomas calmly.
“That's impossible.” Monica looked at him in disbelief. “How could Edie block me? I will ask him myself.” She was about to leave on impulse, but Thomas grabbed her hand.
“What are you doing?” She looked at him angrily.
Thomas couldn't describe how he felt.
Disappointment and numbness overwhelmed his heart.
He said mechanically, “Ben already has a new wife. The situation is different from how it was when you married him. They love each other. Monica, you can't disturb them.” “I don’t want to do anything! But I'm still friends with Edie. Can't we even meet as friends? Is his wife so petty?” Monica looked innocent.
Thomas was at a loss for words.
After a long time, he said, “Except for seeing Ben, don’t you have anything else to do now?” “For example?” Monica did not understand his words at all.

Thomas's expression was complicated. “Your parents thought that you were dead. They were heartbroken in the past year and looked as if they had aged 10 years overnight. Monica, when | saw them like that, more than once | regretted having helped you. But | am willing to bear the guilt if you are really happy and don't regret your decision.
However, you are back now.” Chap 130 “Isn't it good that I'm back?” Monica was a little impatient.
Thomas pursed his lips and said, “You're back. But unfortunately, you're already dead by law. If this problem is not resolved properly,Ben who helped you fake your death will be in trouble . Haven't you ever thought of this? What's more, your parents have been sad and in pain for more than a year. Since you've made your decision and come back, you should go to see them first and tell them not to be sad anymore. Didn't this ever come to your mind?” Thomas rarely spoke to her in such a stern tone. Monica was stunned for a moment.
After a while, she looked at him with some grievance and said in a soft voice, “I... | just. didn’t think of it for the moment. Why are you being so fierce toward me? Thomas, don’t you like me anymore?” A deep sense of fatigue suddenly rose in Thomas's heart.
But looking at Monica's pitiful look, he finally softened his tone.
“It's recorded that you fell into the sea and died. Fortunately, people didn't find your corpse. This time, you can say that you floated to the shro and were rescued by someone. | will look for someone to act as your lifesaver.
You should make up a story and collude with ‘your lifesaver’. Don't make any mistakes. Otherwise, Ben, who helped you fake your death certificate, will be in a lot of trouble.
Do you understand?” “I understand.” This time, Monica nodded obediently.
“Don't appear in front of people you're familiar with now. Wait until | find someone to act as your lifesaver and teach him to retell the story,” said Thomas.
“I see.” Monica looked at him with her big watery eyes. “Thomas, you're the best to me.” She always knew how to sway him.
His heart skipped a beat, and he looked away awkwardly. “I've booked a hotel for you. You can stay there for now. | have something else to do, so | have to leave first.” “Leave? Where are you going?” Monica couldn't help but feel frustrated. “You don’t want me to see other people, but you're not accompanying me. What should | do when I'm alone?” “I'm only going for an hour.” Thomas felt a headache coming on.
Chapter 130 “What's going on?” Monica asked.
Thomas looked at her and pursed his lips. “I have a blind date.”
