Clingy Love Chapter 53
After three rounds of drinks, Mr. Williams burped and scanned Mona’s body with a lustful gaze. Mona was cold. She cast a sidelong glance at him without saying a word. Mr. Williams wanted more and moved even closer to Mona. He tested the water by patting her shoulder. “Mona, are you feeling better?” Mona shifted with her butt, subconsciously moving away. When she avoided Mr. Williams, the old rascal got closer and picked up the glass of water on the table. “Here. Drink with us.” Mona pushed the glass of water, silently refusing. Mr. Lewis saw that and said angrily, “Mona, Mr. Williams cares for you and is letting you drink water instead of wine. How can you not appreciate his kindness?” “Richard, why are you being mean to her?” Mr. Williams looked insatiably at Mona. “Mona, are you scared? Don’t be scared. I’m here for you.” As he spoke, he reached out his wandering hand in an attempt to touch her. Mona frowned, raised a glass of wine, and poured it on Mr. Lewis’s he

Marcus immediately understood. He glanced at the private room Mona had just walked out from and strode straight over. “Can you walk? I’ll send you home.” Thaddeus did not ask for more details. He did not want to uncover Mona’s traumatic experience. If he wanted to know what happened, he could just look into it himself. Moreover, he would take care of everything quietly. “I don’t want to go home yet.” Mona hurriedly shook her head. “I can’t let the children see me like this. I’ll go to the hotel and get a room to take a shower first.” Mona reeked of smoke and alcohol. She felt very dirty. “There’s no need to go to a hotel. I’ll take you home. There are clothes for you there.” Mona hesitated before realizing that the home Thaddeus was referring to was the small villa they used to live in together. She pondered for a while. It was quite close anyway, so she agreed to it. With that, Mona followed Thaddeus to Gold Coast. It had been a few months. She was somewhat dazed as

Thaddeus frowned slightly when the beautiful Mona crashed into his arms. When he looked further down, he saw her bare and long legs. The water droplets from her bath trickled down her delicate curves and dripped onto her tender little feet. It was an uninterrupted view, and Thaddeus took everything in. Mona took two steps back and curled her ten delicate and lovely toes. She looked embarrassed but playful at the same time. It tickled Thaddeus’s heart a little. “I’m going to get my pants.” Mona quickly avoided Thaddeus’s sight and ran toward the room. Thaddeus looked sideways at the woman who had escaped like a little rabbit. His lips curled into an attractive curve. Not long after, his phone rang. It was his assistant, Marcus. Thaddeus walked to the end of the corridor and stood in front of the window with his coffee. Looking at the quiet night in the courtyard, his good-looking eyebrows looked hostile. Picking up the phone, Marcus’s voice was exceptionally clear in t

It was quite a far-fetch scenario to be in. For a proud person to talk about affection, Thaddeus must be referring to Mona’s docility. While Mona’s mind was all over the place, the man had turned on his heel and taken strides downstairs. “I made you pasta. Come downstairs for food.” Mona took the stairs to the first floor in a daze. The warm light in the dining room gave out a rather comforting glow. Taking a seat, Mona watched as the man brought the food to her. He tenderly uttered, “Eat it while it’s hot.” By the time she snapped out of her thoughts, Thaddeus had gotten on one knee before her, rolled up her trouser leg, and got a good grip on her ankle. “Ouch! That hurts…” Mona had felt funny about the pain in her ankle during her shower. Perhaps it was quite the boot she gave at the restaurant, or maybe she had sprained her ankle from fleeing in her heels. Thaddeus applied pressure on her leg and lifted his chin to give her a look. “I thought you were hungry, and

Mona took a fleeting glance at Marcus. By the looks of his disheveled and burned-out state, she could tell it had been the work of Bobby and Millie. “Mr. Steel, I’m sorry you had to watch over my children this late. Sorry for the trouble.” “Don’t mention it, Ms. Ortega. It was an assignment from the CEO. I’m just doing my part. Is there anything else I can help you with?” “That will be all. It’s late. You should head home.” Mona courteously offered her thanks before seeing Marcus off. Turning on her heel, she was met with the children’s wide Bambi eyes. It appeared they were trying to play innocent. “I’m sorry, Mommy, for causing you problems. Don’t be mad.” Millie drew close and tugged on Mona’s sleeve with teary eyes. She would burst out crying on cue should Mona say one word about her. “Mommy, we don’t like your boss and his assistant. Can you stop them from coming to our home?” Bobby pulled a deadpan look to reflect the severity of the matter. His annoyance was

Mona curled her lips and scoffed. “What? Did the cops arrest Baldie Lewis? I can’t say I’m surprised if that’s the case.” “F*ck! How did you know? Hang on. You had dinner with Mr. Lewis and a client. Mr. Lewis and Mr. Williams were taken to the station for further questioning today. How did you come out of it unscathed?” The news drove the sleepy bugs out of Mona. “What did you say? Were they really detained?” Truth to be told, Mona had intended to go to the police. However, she did not have the leverage or funds to go up against these men without concrete evidence in hand. “Yeah. It seems that they were apprehended in the private dining lounge where the dinner took place. Apparently, the police found a smoking gun to nail them. Weren’t you there? Tell me what happened.” Mona pursed her lips, not revealing anything on her face. “There’s nothing much to say. God has eyes. Karma is bound to hit back.” “Alright. You should get to the office. Our new employer should be here
Clingy Love Chapter 59
If Mona remembered correctly, the newly appointed young boss was Raymond, the youngest son of the Rockwells— the retailer giant of general merchandise in Worchester City. He was also the most likely successor of the Rockwell family business. Mona had a good understanding of Raymond because the guy was close to Thaddeus. She would keep an eye out on reports of this young and charming heir whenever she read the finance page. Of course, Raymond must not know her since Thaddeus would never tell his friends about his less-than-desirable wife of a secret marriage. “I would like to introduce you to Starbright’s new boss – Raymond Rockwell. Please, everybody. A round of applause.” Amid the thundering reception around the office, some female colleagues eyeballed Raymon and clapped like a dolphin. The clapping gradually subsided when Ramond led his management team to a meeting room. “I can’t believe how young the new boss is.” “Not only is he young, he’s quite the looker too. I bet
Clingy Love Chapter 60
Furious, Sasha bit her lower lip and glanced fleetingly at Raymond. Seeing that he showed no reaction, Sasha had no idea whether or not Raymond had read between the lines of her words. She embarrassedly lowered her head and fiddled with her freshly manicured crystal fingernails. Raymond narrowed his eyes at Mona. Although Mona had lost her memory and was sheltered all those years by Thaddeus, she had not lost her backbone. She was indeed her father’s daughter. “Come to my office. We have much to discuss.” Turning his head away, Raymond made his way toward the CEO’s office. Under everybody’s instructive eyes, Mona followed her new boss into the office. The crowd craned their necks and watched them leave before gathering around Sasha. “That was a bold move, Sasha. Why did you stand up and say that out of the blue?” Sasha saw herself as better than everyone else. “You won’t get it. I’ve always been vocal, and the good thing about being loud is that people will remember y
