Clingy Love Chapter 23
Victor then came back in with Eleanor’s medicine. Mona secretly sized up Victor. She was curious as to how much she resembled the Susan he mentioned. Why would he lose control over himself whenever he saw her? As she drifted away in her thoughts, the grip on her waist tightened and brought her back to the present moment. “Ouch! That hurts!” she grunted and frowned at Thaddeus. Thaddeus looked at her and softly tapped on her nose. “It’s dinner time. Don’t be nosy.” Mona was stunned when she locked eyes with the man. There was an unprecedented affection and kindness in his abyssal eyes, yet they felt surreal. He must be acting. His grandfather wanted Thaddeus to live a good life, so Thaddeus used her to entertain the old man and make him happy. The man was on par with Marianne in terms of acting. If he were to debut as an actor, he would probably get an award. Unfortunately, the couple’s ending would probably disappoint the old man. Dinner began once everyone was sa

Thaddeus ignored his mother’s screaming. He glared at Victor, unable to suppress the anger boiling in his chest.He switched his glare back to Mona and repeated the question, “Answer me! Who are the kids he’s talking about?” Mona chose silence. She looked down and refused to explain. A moment later, she said, “Is my answer that important to you?” To him, she was just a toy he used to vent his lust. So why would a tool need to explain herself? She was not that important to him. The disappointment in Thaddeus’s eyes grew denser. Amid the awkward silence, the man chose to leave. After Thaddeus left, Eleanor quickly pulled her son away, afraid he would continue his ridiculous act. Mona was then left alone with Jennifer. She glared at Jennifer, who had a delighted smile on her face. “You did that on purpose!” Jennifer crossed her arms and gloated at Mona. “So what if I did? I’m helping you. You two were getting a divorce anyway. Since Thaddeus was having a hard time com

“Let’s go in.” Thaddeus took the lead, with Mona following behind him. As the sun shed its brilliance on the towering figure, his massive shadow enveloped the petite woman whole. The sudden darkness stunned her. She realized her marriage with Thaddeus was like a child trapped behind a wall or fortress. She had tried to escape the wall’s shadow, but her attempts were futile until today. After three years of being shadowed by the wall, she finally welcomed freedom. When they got into the spacious courthouse, they were the only ones there to file a divorce. Thaddeus had arranged for this to happen since he had to keep this marriage secret until the very end. The process went swiftly and smoothly since they were the only ones. Less than ten minutes later, they left the courthouse as divorcees. Thaddeus opened the door to his car. He looked at Mona and asked, “Where are you heading? I’ll give you a ride.” Mona glanced at her watch. She had an appointment with an e-commerce
Clingy Love Chapter 26
Mona had no idea someone had dissed her after she left Thaddeus. She returned to her work and got busy. After the interview with the e-commerce shop, it was almost noon. She took a ride to the hospital. The first thing she wanted to do now that she had gotten the alimony was to ask for a specialist to treat Millie’s condition. Unfortunately, the doctor informed her that Millie’s condition was rather complex. The odds of the operation being successful were only 40%; if it failed, it would endanger the girl’s life. In other words, the operation was a gamble. In the best case scenario, Millie could grow up healthily; in the worst, she would lose the girl forever. However, if she chose not to treat Millie’s condition, the girl would not make it past ten years old. Mona could not make such a heavy decision in a heartbeat. It was too difficult for her. So she decided to delay the consultation and decided to think it over. She walked out of the hospital, dispirited. When she f

Mona regained her composure and adorned her smiling mask one last time. She raised her glass into the air and proposed a toast. “Mr. Fontaine, you said I’m thinking about someone, but I can say the same to you as well.” Did she just tacitly acknowledge it? Thaddeus’s eyes turned cold. He scoffed and said, “You remember your past?” Mona took a sip of wine and answered, “I do know your nephew, then?” The man narrowed his eyes in surprise, his expression profound. The woman was smart. She was trying to trick him into revealing the truth about her past. If she truly remembered her past, given her old attitude, she would definitely have created a huge disturbance. He really hoped that her memories could be buried for the rest of her life. It would not only be better for her but for everyone else as well. “You should be asking yourself that question since you know Victor.” The man gave a vague answer, attempting to brush Mona off. “Fine. It’s not the time to talk about
Clingy Love Chapter 28
Thaddeus narrowed his eyes. He never realized the woman had such a vivid imagination. Since when did she see him loving another woman? Aside from the scandals, he had been loyal to his marriage with her, mentally or physically. He had never loved or slept with another woman in the past four years. With only a few questions, Mona clearly sensed Thaddeus being defensive and cautious. He really protected the woman well and refused to reveal even a single detail about her. Thaddeus swirled his glass elegantly and looked at her deeply. A long silence later, he said, “All I can say is, since I married you, she hasn’t appeared. I’ve been searching for her for twenty years, and I thought I wouldn’t see her again for the rest of my life.” The sudden realization hit Mona. “Oh, so it’s childhood lovers? You found her and wanted to give her an official title. Is this why you wanted to divorce me?” It was not due to the pressure from his family or her negligence of duty.He wanted
Clingy Love Chapter 29
After Mona got into the taxi and left the restaurant, she sighed a long breath of relief. It was over. The marriage was finally over. She was like a fish released back into the ocean, now able to live a life of freedom. The taxi stopped in front of a cafe. A man was waiting for her inside, and when she came in, he stood up. “Susan, you’re here.” Mona sat opposite Victor and put her purse down. Her eyes sized the man from top to bottom. She tried her best to search for memories regarding the man, but her mind was blank. She was curious how he knew she had a pair of twins, so when he called her out to meet, she agreed. “Mr. Cornwell, how did you know I have a pair of twins?” “It’s because you’re my fiance, and I’m their father,” Victor said. “What? You are the twins’ father?” Mona dared not believe what she just heard. “Suzy.” Victor held Mona’s hand, but she quickly pulled away from him. It was disgusting. She could not accept intimate contact with the man
Clingy Love Chapter 30
“Right away, sir,” Marcus said. Marcus left the office, leaving Thaddeus alone. Thaddeus could no longer concentrate on work now that he had learned the truth. He stood by the ceiling-to-floor window and peered down the entire city from the twenty-eighth floor. As he recalled his time with Mona, the man spotted even more clues. However, he understood that he was not going to get answers in his mind, so he grabbed his jacket and strode out of the office. “Marcus, I want to know where Mona is staying right now. Give me the address and tell the driver to prepare the car. I want to go there as soon as possible.” When Thaddeus arrived at Mona’s place, the sky was already dark. The car parked in front of the entrance of the apartment. He looked up at Mona’s unit and saw nothing but dark windows. It seemed no one was home. He lit a cigarette and waited, but no one returned.The man came with questions of his own, and he would not be able to rest until he got his answers.H
