My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1577

Monique endured her worries for a long while. After much thought, she decided to talk to Cecil about it as it felt better to share her concerns with a friend. "Cecil... If you accidentally find out that someone is homosexual, what would you do?"

Cecil did not take it seriously and said, "And what's wrong with that? Society is open-minded now, so homosexuality is common. There's nothing wrong with a man loving another man, or two women in love either."

Monique asked, "Do you really think so?"

Cecil said, "Yes, I really do. There is a very loving gay couple in my community. Whenever they're out and about, they would often greet us very politely. In fact, as long as two people are deeply in love, and do not wreck anyone's family, they have a right to be happy together."

Monique asked again, "Then what if..."

Monique looked at Cecil and hesitated. Cecil asked impatiently, "What?"

Monique continued, "Oh, forget it. If I say it, people will definitely think that I’m biased because I dislike him, and am deliberately gossiping about him."

Cecil suddenly understood the situation and said, "Monique, are you about to say that Levi is gay..?"

As Cecil and Monique chatted away fervently, they were not aware of the other people behind them. And since Cecil’s voice was not exactly soft, her words had been heard by those people...

One of those guys exclaimed, "What? Levi Brown, who's my roommate, is gay? Alas, has he ever harboured thoughts about me? I haven't even had a girlfriend yet, I can't be defiled..."

Another guy continued, "That's right. If Levi were gay, he would probably be the first to attack you, since you sleep next to him!"

Monique and Cecil were shocked beyond words.

They were doomed!

Levi would definitely eat them alive now.

As expected, it did not take long for the rumor to reach Levi.

He was so furious that he kicked the door of Monique and Cecil's dormitory open without even knocking. Cecil was so frightened that she hid in her bed, with the blankets shielding herself.

Levi pointed to Monique and said, "Tomboy, get out here!"

Monique was calm and relaxed. "What? You had the guts to do it, but now you're afraid of it being out in the open? I never thought of you as great, Levi, but I thought that you were a decent person at least. Since you had the guts to hook up with Commander Black, you should have the guts to admit it.”

Levi was so full of rage that he almost spat blood out. "Monique, you d*mned woman, what are you thinking about all day? I'm a decent and dignified man. When did I seduce our Commander Black with my body?" He yelled.

Monique said, "I heard it that day."

"What day?" Levi suddenly remembered that it was the day when he got a phone call saying that Silvia and her child were fine. On that day, he was so excited that he hugged Jasper. Later, he saw Monique looking at him strangely and she then proceeded to avoid him. "Monique, what the f*ck are you talking about? If you want to talk nonsense, I'll make you pay for your nonsense."

If it was not for the fact that Monique, this tomboy, was still a woman, Levi would have personally torned her apart.

Monique said, "If you really didn't do it, you can always explain it to them. Why get so worked up?"

Levi said," I also f*cking saw that you had an affair with the commander, Monique."

Monique jumped up in anger. "You're f*cking slandering me, Levi Brown!"

"If you really didn't do it, you can explain it to them. Why get so worked up?" Levi smiled coldly and gave Monique a taste of her own medicine.

Monique was dumbfounded. "You..."

Levi said, "I’m warning you, if you dare say something bad about me and damage my reputation in the future, I'll make you suffer."

While the two were neck-deep in their quarrel, the emergency bugle of the army suddenly sounded. It was a signal for an urgent assembly.

After that, Levi turned around and ran without saying anything else. Monique and Cecil grabbed their coats and wore them as they ran. In less than five minutes, all team members gathered at the assembly point and lined up, waiting for instructions from their superiors.

Jasper said, "We just received an alert that a cruise ship containing hundreds of people hit the reef and sank less than 100 kilometers away from Chatterton Town. It's unknown whether the crew is alive or dead. All Red Eagle squad members are to suit up and get to the scene of the rescue immediately."

The matter was extremely urgent. The sooner they arrived, the greater the possibility of a more successful rescue. During times like this, everyone put their personal emotions in the backburner,

and the whole team took a helicopter to the scene of the accident.

After all, they were soldiers...

This was their duty to the people of their nation.

At usual times, the soldiers guarded the country, to maintain peace for the citizens. And whenever an emergency happened, these soldiers would be the frontliners for rescue missions. Hence, soldiers would usually be given priorities at queues.

In the past, Monique did not understand why soldiers would opt to line up at priority queues to purchase train tickets along with pregnant ladies and disabled people. She would even complain silently in her heart, "Soldiers are healthy and strong compared to these people. Why would they need priority service?"

But since joining the army, Monique realized that soldiers received priority not because they were weak or deserved privileges. They were given priority because of their duty to be first responders at the scene of a disaster, to save as many lives and property as possible.

When the Red Eagle squad arrived at the site of the incident, the nearby soldiers and civilians were already involved in the rescue mission. However, the rescue mission was very dangerous because the incident site was in the deep sea with the nearest island being kilometers away. The Chatterton Town Military Region team was the emergency team responsible for discussing the rescue plan while the Red Eagle team was mainly responsible for receiving the orders from above and executing the emergency rescue.

Levi, Monique, and five others were split into the same group tasked to go into the sea to determine what happened.

Levi had received a diving license a few years back, so it was no problem for him to go into sea. However, Monique only received military training and had never experienced actual combat, so she was nervous about the mission. She gave herself a hard pinch to calm herself down.

Now that so many people were waiting for their rescue, she must not be the weight holding them down and putting their lives at stake.

Monique calmed down a lot after thinking of this. Under the captain’s command, she and her team members quickly dived into the water. After sinking for several meters, they finally saw the cruise ship. As soon as they approached the sunken ship, the life detector on Monique's body sent out a signal to prove that there were survivors around her.

Levi who was next to Monique also received the signal. They looked at each other in the sea water. Their long-time training led them to tacitly understand what the other was doing. One sent a signal for help to the higher-ups while the other continued to look for survivors.
