The Reborn Wife Strikes Back ( Gordon Holmes’ )

Chapter 75 

Was Gordon going to admire the moon with me on the rooftop today? 

Was this real? 

I had invited him every year for the last two years, but he always scoffed at it. He simply refused to 

admire the moon with someone like me. 

This was such a rare occurrence. 

I regarded him with suspicion inwardly, but on the outside, I agreed, “Alright. We can do that.” 

So when Luke dropped us off at Hovilham Residence, we headed straight to the roof. 

Hovilham Residence was a modern villa. It had been built specially for us by the Holmes family when we got married and was situated halfway up Huntway Hill. According to Bailey, it was a very valuable piece of land with an excellent view. There was a moat in front of it as it was built against Huntway Hill. 

When we first got married, I had been full of anticipation for a happy life with Gordon. The first day I 

moved in, I made a little garden on the roof and planted flowers and grass. I even installed a swing and added a unique–looking round table and two deckchairs. 

I had imagined that when we weren’t busy, Gordon and I could lie there and enjoy the beautiful view surrounding Hovilham Residence. I had thought that we could admire the view of Sobrough City. 

However, despite my efforts in decorating the place with such joy, Gordon had never wanted to step foot 

there. 

To him, everything I did was laughable and lame. 

I was very hurt, and after that, I stopped looking after the roof. I had no idea what it looked like now. 

When Gordon and I pushed open the glass doors that led to the roof, I expected it to be overrun with weeds. However, it was looked after meticulously, and the flowers I planted back then had all bloomed. 

The entire roof was like a garden in the sky, as exquisite. 

“I came up here at the spur of the moment a few days ago and saw that it was decorated very beautifully. 

Mr. Wade said that you’re the one who usually attends to it. You’ve put a lot of care into it.” 

Gordon stood behind me. There was a note of approval in his voice 

I felt embarrassed. After all, I hadn’t been up here for about a year 

It must have been Bailey who came up here often to take care of the place and maintain its luxuriant 

state. 

“While we’re admiring the moon, let’s Gordon. 

“Alright,” he agreed readily. 

prepare some ple, dried fruits and a fruit platter,” I said as I turned to 

Chapter 75 

I headed downstairs at once and rummaged through the cupboards to find the hazelnuts, cashew nuts, and raisins that we had bought. I put them on pretty–looking plates, then took a few pieces of sliced cantaloupe, a couple of cherry tomatoes, and a bunch of grapes from the fridge. I washed them and arranged them on a fruit platter. Then I took out the ples our parents had given us and told Bailey to help me carry them to the roof. 

I placed the food on the small, round table. Gordon was already sitting on one of the deckchairs, scrolling casually through his phone. 

Bailey and I arranged the round table between the two deckchairs. When this was done, I gave Bailey surreptitious thumbs–up, which he responded to with a warm smile before returning downstairs. 

I lay down on the other deckchair and looked up at the sky. 

The moonlight was unusually beautiful, and the moon hung high in the sky like a giant silver plate. A wisp of cloud obscured half the moon’s face like a veil, and the entire Sobrough City seemed to be clothed in a silver coat. A breeze swept through the roof, bringing with it the fragrance of flowers. It was so calm and peaceful that it felt like time stood still. 

Gordon and I said nothing. We lay there while the swing swayed softly back and forth. No one wanted to 

break the silence. 

I received a message on my phone. It was from Hector. 

“Happy Thanksgiving. Do you want to come out for some fun?” 

As expected of a wild partier. He couldn’t even stay home on Thanksgiving. “No, I’m admiring the moon at home,” I typed back quickly.
