“Why? What happened, Mr. Cox?” Mona face showed no emotion. She wondered why Leo was calling at this time.

"Mr. Cox is a busy man; he wouldn't call for such a pointless question." Leo didn't mean to, but he loosened his tie.

Mona’s sharp tongue had gotten even sharper after a few years.

“Sydney didn't mean to do it on purpose, though. Why are you still holding on to it?” Leo’s voice had a tinge of agitation that most people might not have noticed, but Mona did. She used to study every little thing he did to make him happy.

Mona let out a deep breath and smiled sarcastically. "Does Mr. Cox really think she's innocent? That I'm the one holding on to it?”

Leo didn't say anything. Mona didn't care what he thought. She suddenly thought of the Hunt family, who had been in the news a lot lately. She smirked and said, "Of course, Mr. Cox standing up for Mrs. Cox is only natural. I understand."

Leo’s eyebrows almost knitted together into a frown as she said that. He could always remember

    Mrs. Donovan stood up right away and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I just fell by mistake." She insisted everything was okay, but her actions didn't seem to be okay at all. Mona frowned and told Betty to go. She also remarked to Mrs. Donovan, “Just go and rest.” Mona heard everything that had just happened from Betty. She frowned a little. She had thought Mrs. Donovan was here to work, but now she was getting close to the kids on purpose. She was also a little confused by the way Mrs. Donovan hid away from Leo. She paused for a bit and then told Betty, "I'll pretend to fire you later and then send my kids on the kindergarten spring outing. You can play outside for a few days and then come back after the meeting.”Mrs. Donovan watched Betty leave with her bags after a while. That's when she pretended to be sad. She even went up to Betty and said she was sorry. Betty didn't even look at her. She exited the villa and left. Mrs. Donovan was secretly happy that she could get close to

    Mona looked around and saw Mrs. Donovan walking out of the kitchen, after Leo left."Did your friend leave already ? You didn't quarrel, did you?”Mona didn't say anything. She only raised her eyebrows and stared at Mrs. Donovan. Mrs. Donovan didn't know she had made a mistake until then. "I'm sorry," she responded right away. "I was just worried that you would be in a bad mood. I didn't mean anything else.” She looked nervous and bowed her head. Mona smiled weakly and said, "It doesn't matter. We are not friends.”"Ah? Okay. Because It looks like you two are close...”"It's not your business." Mona stopped her in a low voice and went upstairs, unhappy. Mrs. Donovan stood there calmly with a look of disgust on her face. But she didn't know that Mona had watched all she did. ~~Luke and Rue were still awake and mumbling. They stopped talking right away as they saw Mona come into their room. She sat next to the bed and whispered softly, "Why didn't you want to see him?”Even thoug

    That night when Mona got home, Mrs. Jenner softly pulled her aside. "Why do I think Mrs. Donovan doesn't look like someone who has ulterior motives? I set up a lot of work for her today. She worked late, but she didn't do it well.”Mona laughed as Mrs. Jenner stated this because she could see how disgusted she was. She told Mrs. Jenner, "I didn't really ask her to come stay here." “I can’t wait for her to leave.”Mrs. Donovan came down the stairs at that moment and spotted Them. "Are you back?" When Mrs. Jenner stood next to Mona, Mrs. Donovan smiled less warmly and said she was sorry. "I've been working part-time outside all these years. I don't do a good job today. I can resign if you think I'm not right for the job.” Mrs. Donovan looked like she was going to cry when she bent her head. Mona thought of something and asked Mrs. Donovan, “Are you related to Sydney Harlow?” Mrs. Donovan frowned. "Sydney Harlow? Isn’t she a popular actress? I've seen her movies.”Mona stared

    The bodyguard that Elena hired came in less than two days. Mona couldn't believe it when she saw the tiny girl named Betty Vale in front of her. She called Elena and asked, "Are you sure she's a bodyguard? Can she protect us?” Elena couldn't help but laugh. "Of course. Just wait and see.” Betty said as Mona hung up the phone, "You must have doubts about my skills, right?" Mona didn't hide it anymore because Betty was so direct. She agreed and continued, "I don't like to judge a book by its cover, but your looks are misleading." Betty was used to being asked these kinds of questions. She said, "I think that all the security guards at the entrance to your company look like martial artists. Why don't you let them try to beat me?”Mona thought for a moment. "Are you sure? They chose their skills carefully for the company's safety.”Betty nodded with confidence. Mona had to ask Williams to bring four people."it will be bad if we hurt her." "It's all right. Go ahead.” Betty looked a

    People heard what Sydney said. A few people knew who her even took pictures of her. Sydney didn't want to avoid being a public person. Instead, she smile to the people to take pictures while close to Leo.When she heard someone utter something like "true love," her smile got bigger. Leo saw her little motions and couldn't help but add in a quiet voice, "Don't go too far." Sydney smiled stiffly and said, "I...." "It’s fine." Leo didn't let her explain.Sydney was already feeling dizzy, but when she glanced down from a high height, she felt even more dizzy. She grabbed Leo without thinking. "Leo, I..." Before she could finish, she watched Luke jump down from the stand with the coach without thinking twice, his short legs moving quickly. There was a loud cheer all around. Sydney’s expression immediately darkened as she sucked the words on the tip of her mouth. The wind blew hard. Sydney’s body wavered, and her face got paler. "Leo... I don't know if the bungee jumping places have be

    "Leo?" Just as Luke was going to drag Leo forward with excitement, a lovely voice sounded from behind them. Mona’s face instantly fell. Sydney came out of nowhere. Her smile froze when she saw Leo and Mona walking with their kids. "You..." She was almost to cry as she looked at Leo and Luke’s hands. Luke felt upset when he saw Sydney at the villa's gate last time. He shook off Leo and ran to Mona right away. "I just happened to be working close by and saw you..." Sydney held Leo’s hand in a very close way as she pointed at Luke and Rue. "I heard that Miss Granger had two kids in secret when she was living abroad. Are they the twins?”Mona held Luke and Rue’s hands and watched Sydney with great interest. How could Sydney not know what the Hunt Family knew? "Are those your kids?" Sydney’s eyes grew wide in shock. "Have you taken a paternity test? Are you sure...” Sydney gave Mona a regretful look. "I didn't want to mistrust Miss Granger, but you know that two kids just showed up
