Chapter33 She had seen Garrett act impulsively before , and she always stopped him just in time to prevent a disaster . Now that he had done this , she could only suspect that he deliberately lured her over . She bowed and said , " I'm really sorry for causing you so much loss and trouble . Please rest assured , we will compensate you double for all the losses . I'm really sorry !" Her sincere apology took the anger out of this couple . The woman couldn't help but say a few words , " We're not troublemakers , it's just that your husband is too much ! He even wanted to hit my husband just now ! Miss , I'm not kidding , your husband has a violent tendency , you should be careful . " When this was said , Garrett immediately flew into a rage . " What did you say ! " The man , seeing the situation , immediately shielded his wife behind him , " You want to fight , huh ? Don't think I'm afraid of you ! " " Feeling frustrated , Garrett decided to go out and blow off some steam . " " Garrett ! " Adelaide angrily shouted at him . Facing Adelaide , he was suddenly at a loss for words , " Honey , I was wrong ." When the couple across heard this name , they looked at each other and seemed to think of something.

" " Okay " Garrett quickly took out his phone and urged the man , " QR code ." " Well , actually . " The man started to speak clumsily , Adelaide realized something .

" " Not much . " Adelaide gave a slight smile , then said a few words to the property manager , and the matter was resolved . She then turned and left . Garrett caught up from behind , looking sheepish , and said , " Honey , you haven't eaten yet , right ? Tonight I'll make your favorite pineapple fried rice for you , okay ? " Adelaide ignored him . Garrett saw the situation and felt extremely uneasy , " Wife , say something . I'm scared when you're like this ." Still silent all the way , waiting until they entered the house . Garrett suddenly stopped in front of her , grabbed her hand and hit himself in the face . " All the mistakes are mine , it's my fault for losing my mind these days and hurting you over and over again . " " Wife , you hit me and scold me , don't ignore me , okay ?" Adelaide pulled back her hand , with a serious expression , saying , " You're already twenty - six , not a teenager in puberty . Don't be so impulsive and childish . When adults make mistakes , they need to solve them like adults , not just say sorry and think it's all good . " Garrett said , " But we were so close , how could you just say no and that's it ? Today my parents called asking when we're coming home .
