Henry made long strides toward the elevator. His handsome face wore a cold expression, as terrifying as a grim reaper’s, as though he was from hell. It felt as though a cold wind flowed wherever Henry passed, and it made the gorgeous secretary tremble.The secretary initially thought of greeting the chairman, but soon dropped the idea when she detected his cold aura. Despite working in the secretary department, she had not much opportunity to interact with the chairman. It was always either Shaun or Mandy that appeared before him.All she could do was carry out the tasks Shaun and Mandy gave her.She felt rather surprised that day when a clerk from the reception and a physician showed up while the chairman himself left the office.Nevertheless, she dared not enter the chairman's office on her own accord, especially while the chairman was angry.'If I offend him, wouldn't that be the end for me?'Curiosity was often said to kill the cat. She did not long for a death wish.Hen
The chauffeur had seen the chairman angry before. The chairman would put on a very cold expression whenever he was mad yet still so elegant.However, the man sitting in the backseat gave off murderous vibes with a pale face.Was the chairman sick?The chauffeur opened up a fresh mineral bottle. Fearing to break the silence, he just placed the bottle in front of Henry.Henry accepted the offer, to the chauffeur's surprise. Henry swigged the ice-cold water and swallowed it. After some time, he finally spoke. "To the Starry Kindergarten.""Yes, sir." The chauffeur faced back to the front, started the car, and paid full attention to driving, fearing to make a tiny bit of mistake.In a blink of an eye, the car came to a halt in front of the entrance to the Starry Kindergarten.Henry finally was able to calm himself after being in the car’s quiet environment for some time. His towering silhouette maintained an elegant posture. His meticulous facial features on his handsome face comple
Simon waved at Angel with a smile. "Goodbye Angel, have a safe journey home."Simon's smile was gentle and warm, but to Henry, it was intimidating.Henry was hurt to see Angel have a close relationship with Simon. 'Monique had planned ahead to leave my side.'Henry thought that Monique was scheming to send Angel to the kindergarten so that Angel would develop a better relationship with Simon, and when the time for her to leave Moore manor had arrived, she would be able to leave Henry and live a happy life with Angel and Simon. 'In your dreams!'Fury burned within Henry; he had the urge to give Simon a piece of his mind, but after realizing Angel was with him, Henry dropped the idea.Henry suppressed his anger as he glanced at Angel.Angel was still too young to notice the minor changes in Henry's expression. Angel figured that her mother would be waiting for her in the car. She sprinted to the car anxiously because earlier that morning, they both promised to come to pick her up t
Henry had no prior experience in convincing a child to do anything; he ordered the chauffeur to drive back home, thinking that he should just hand Angel over to Mrs. Lawson."I don't want to go home, I want to go to the office and look for Mommy." Angel cried and struggled to get out of the car to look for her mother.Henry hugged Angel. "There, there, Angel. Daddy’s here, isn’t he? Daddy promises to keep you company, ok?" "No, I want Mommy. You lied to me! Did something happen to Mommy?" Angel lifted her head, frowned. Her big eyes were filled with tears.'Did something happen to Mommy?‘Doesn’t Mommy want me anymore?!'Henry felt sad deep in his heart seeing Angel so distraught, unwilling to part with her mother. Henry kissed her forehead lovingly and said, "Mommy’s gone outstation and will be back after some time."Angel immediately stopped crying, as though she was convinced with the explanation.Angel felt assured that it was not because her mother left her. However, she
Henry put on a serious look and stared at Angel with a loving gaze. "I never said I didn’t want you. Ever since I learned that you were my daughter, I immediately came to pick you up so I could welcome you to my place.""Did you tell Mommy that I'm your daughter?" Angel asked."I did, but she wouldn't believe it." Henry answered.Henry did tell Monique, but she did not take it seriously."Did you show her the DNA test?" Angel was confident that her foolish mother would never believe it without any proof, especially when dealing with filthy rich men like Henry.Angel knew her mother always went for the options that kept her on the safe end.Angel blinked. "Please promise me, Daddy, that you'll protect Mommy for life. Can you keep that promise?"Henry frowned, looking at Angel's earnest eyes. He wanted to protect Monique forever, but that could only be done if Monique was willing. However, Monique kept taking all measures to stay away from Henry.Henry continued looking at Ange
Henry’s charming face looked upset. His expression was hardened, mouth set in a hard line, and his slender physique emitted a threatening aura.Mrs. Lawson had a feeling that something bad would happen soon.Everything was fine when he went out this morning. Why was he in such a foul mood when he came back?What happened?What kind of report did Angel want to see?Mrs. Lawson saw the luxury car drive off and she wondered what the driver knew. He even left in a hurry! Thus, she tailed the car to the garage.Mr. Moore had never been fond of nosy people, but the driver had known Mrs. Lawson for a long time. He could not help but tell her, “Mr. Moore told Angel that he was her real father. The child probably wanted to look at the DNA report.”The driver felt a little smug and continued, “I don’t think it’s necessary to look at the report and prove Angel is Mr. Moore’s daughter. You weren't there to see when he was left speechless by her questions, and she was not afraid of him at al
It was not time to leave work yet, but Monique was nowhere to be found all afternoon. She did not apply for leave and nobody knew where she was. Mr. Walt did not dare question it either.Amelia felt a tightness in her chest. Why could that woman be so relaxed at work while she had to work her fingers to the bone? She felt it unfair--it was extremely unfair.Yvonne reached the planning department. Monique was not at her desk, but her computer was still on. Although she was not very fond of Amelia, she was the only one that she could ask. “Hi, do you know where Monique is?”“She’s the chairman’s girlfriend, and she can come and go as she pleases. How would I know where she is?” Amelia frowned, sulky.‘She comes and goes as she pleases? She did not come back to the office in the afternoon?’“She didn’t come back in the afternoon?” Yvonne could only be nice to her, since she was asking for help, even though she knew Amelia did not like Monique either. The enemy of her enemy was her fr
It was an outrage. Amelia would not mind giving her a helping hand since she was so shameless. Then, she opened the office group chat and pressed enter to send the pictures out. Suddenly, the group chat was bombarded with messages.‘Isn’t this the chairman’s driver?’‘Oh yeah, that’s her! She’s so shameless to use the chairman’s money to cheat on him.’‘That’s horrible. Mr. Moore’s such a good man, yet she doesn’t appreciate him.’‘You actually think the chairman liked her? He only cares about her because of her daughter. Who knows what kinds of tricks she used to get in the chairman’s bed to have that girl.’Amelia was pleased as she looked through the messages. If the chairman knew Monique was a two-timer, he would dump her immediately. Men tended to have huge, fragile egos.Then, she typed out a few words, ‘According to a reliable source, that child is not the chairman’s biological daughter.’‘Whoa, that's shocking news! For real? Totally unbelievable!’‘That’s impossible! T
