Chapter 29 Travis licked his lips and spoke , his voice hoarse . " Please send me the address . I will be there shortly . " Larissa's assistant switched off the camera and sent over the restaurant's address . When they heard that Travis was coming over to pick Larissa up , the group started gossiping again . " Looks like the two of them are still together ! " " Ms. Seymour really is patient ! Her husband had an affair , and she still hasn't divorced him ! " " What else can she do ? Society puts more pressure on women than men . It's harder to find a partner when you're a divorced woman . " " They have no children anyway . Based on Ms. Seymour's looks and financial status alone , even if she was divorced , plenty of people would be lining up to pursue her , regardless ! " " Alright , alright ," Larissa's assistant interrupted . " Regarding Ms. Seymour and her husband's private matters , let's all forget what we heard today . Don't you all start spreading rumors about this outside of this room . " At that time , Travis was still working overtime in his office . Since the incident in the fancy restaurant , Amber had resigned from her position to recuperate at home . Travis also moved into her rental house to take care of her . When the two of them lived in separate houses , their relationship was very harmonious . They'd had very few arguments too . Yet , after spending more and more time together , conflicts naturally arose . Travis and Larissa were both very busy with work , so the two of them had decided to split the burden of doing household chores between them . Sometimes , when Travis ' team had a project to launch , he would be so busy that he could only return home after three or four in the morning . Larissa would then voluntarily help him out with his part of the chores . Amber , on the other hand , was a woman unfamiliar with the realities of society . Moreover , she'd grown up in a household where she'd never had to experience hardships . She grew up living in comfort and luxury , which resulted in her hardly knowing how to do any , if not all , household chores . The first time Travis visited Amber's house , he had almost run away in fright as soon as he saw the mess . Her living room couch was piled with clothes , including those she had worn , those she hadn't worn yet , underwear , jackets , coats , and overcoats - all of them were mixed together in a big heap . On the coffee table , apart from the fashion magazines she adored , there were also discarded takeout containers , The mess in her bedroom was even more frightful . Her double bed was piled up even more messily than her couch . All kinds of cosmetics and beauty products lay haphazardly on her dressing table . Various bottles had been overturned and spilled over , but Amber had not bothered to place . them back upright . Travis had spent an entire day trying to clean her house up to a livable state . Yet , not even two days later , it had returned to its original , frightful state . Travis had tried talking to her about it multiple times . He'd advised her to clean her house at least once every two days to maintain its cleanliness . Amber had promised to try , but she had never once followed through on her promises . Just recently , his company launched an important project . Travis could barely get six hours of sleep in three days . When he returned home and saw the house filled with trash , the anger he had been trying to suppress finally erupted . He'd had a big fight with Amber that night . In the end , it only stopped when Amber cried till she couldn't breathe and yelled about the pain in her stomach . He had held and kissed and comforted her until she finally calmed down . Despite that , Amber seemed to have no intention of changing . Travis thought about the child she was carrying and tried to tolerate her for its sake . And yet , Amber's temper had only gotten worse , reaching its peak when she'd had her miscarriage . At that point , everyone had to comply with her every need to satisfy her . Not only that , if anyone did not meet her expectations even in the slightest , she would not just curse and yell at them but would also smash everything she could get her hands on . Travis was already exhausted from dealing with his work . Now , he had to endure her temper too when he visited her at the hospital . As time passed , he even started to harbor some resentment toward her . Eventually , he had his parents move from their house in his hometown just to take care of her . Amber's uncle held a high - ranking position at Microworks Corporation . Coincidentally , the largest shareholder in the company he worked for happened to be Microworks Corporation as well . As soon as his mother heard about Amber's family background , she was undoubtedly pleased . From the moment she met Amber , she had been trying to suck . up to her , speaking to her in a low and gentle tone - completely at odds with how she had treated Larissa . His mother also took care of Amber voluntarily . Everything she did for Amber was meticulous . She even personally attended to all the details despite being constantly hit and scolded by Amber . Amber's lack of respect toward his mother was greeted with no complaints whatsoever . Sometimes , Travis would look at his mother and think of her as a pathetic suck - up . Then , remembering that she was only doing all of this for him , he found that he couldn't bring himself to say anything harsh about her .
