Henry sneakily took a peek at Monique who had been asleep. The frowning eyebrows of Monique’s had now been laxed. 'Who was she thinking about just now!'The car came to a stop at Moore’s manor and Henry had Mrs. Lawson escorted Angel while he beamed at the lady beside him lovingly, bent his huge silhouette, and carefully carried her down from the car.Henry's arms had been fit and strong, having emanated an aura of a tough man."Is she a pig? How is she able to sleep so soundly in just a short amount of time?" Henry said in a disgusted tone, but the corner of his mouth revealed a delighted expression."You're the pig!" Monique replied after having heard Henry swearing at her as soon as she woke up from slumber.Henry was dumbfounded, "Aren’t you supposed to be sleeping?""So you can curse me behind my back while I'm asleep?" Monique puckered her mouth as she gradually opened her gorgeous eyes wide.Henry stopped his footsteps and glanced at Monique's sleepy eyes that glittered l
Early in the morning the next day, Monique had gotten up extremely early and woke Angel up."Why are you up so early, Mommy? Are you going to work?" Angel had been lying down on the bed, eyes wide opened as she asked in a sluggish manner.Monique stared at Angel's pretty face along with those sleepy eyes and pulled her up, "Nope, I’m planning to bring you to a kindergarten.""Kindergarten?" Angel shook her head, "Mommy, can I not go to kindergarten?""We're just going there for a tour, besides, there’re so many fun things going on in the kindergarten." Monique let out a gentle smile."Alright." Having heard her mother mention 'tour' made her excited as she happily sprung up on her feet.After having had their breakfast, Monique left the manor with Angel. They visited a few kindergartens and all of them had failed to meet Monique’s expectations. Good kindergartens had very expensive fees while those with reasonable fees had either a poor environment or had teachers who were unprof
Miss Christine gave them a tour of the entire school and explained everything in detail. Monique seemed to have liked it, the price had been affordable too. She had been pleased. After they walked out from the kindergarten, Monique looked at Little Angel and asked, “Angel, would it be okay for you to study here from now on?”“Will Mommy come and pick me right after school?” Angel looked up and asked.She had visited many kindergartens today and mommy told her that she needed to work. She told her a lot of things about kindergartens, and emphasized that she would have come and picked her right after school. She liked this place too, if she had to have chosen a kindergarten, then this would be the one that she would have liked to attend.“Of course, you’ll come here in the morning, and I’ll pick you up right after school in the afternoon.” Monique nodded earnestly.Angel had a serious thought, then she nodded, “Okay.”When it had been dinner time, Monique and Angel were seated at the din
Monique’s face twitched. That man had a meaningful look in his eyes, she knew his question had not been a literal one. What a pervert and a bully…“Daddy, you’re amazing!” Angel praised, and her eyes had been gleaming.Henry looked at Angel, he smiled and said, “Angel is much more sensible.”Monique snorted, “What’s so amazing about it, I can do it too.”“Really?” He raised his brows.“Angels are subject not only to God but also to Christ, who is described as hereafter to return to judgment.” Monique explained.Mrs. Lawson had been taking the plates out along with the food, and served it in front of Henry. She had a grin on her face, “That is incredible, Monique.”She felt overjoyed when they looked like they had been having fun together.“Thank you, Mrs. Lawson.” Monique smiled playfully. That smile of hers had a charm to it.“It was only a lucky guess, is there anything to be happy about?” He narrowed his eyes with a smile.Monique’s mouth twitched. This man found joy in having tease
‘That’s great! Mommy seems to have accepted daddy!’ Angel thought.Finally, Henry turned around and ate his dinner elegantly.Monique breathed a sigh of relief. She secretly rolled her eyes, when she thought of having to have slept with him tonight, her hair stood on an end. Would he have done anything inappropriate to her…?Back then, she had been too drunk to have known what had happened. What should she have done now?She rubbed her head and looked up. Mrs. Lawson had been happily feeding Angel, and she had been happily looking at her mother.Monique looked at Angel with her crystal clear eyes, her daughter had been the only who could have saved her now. She was sure that her daughter had received her distress signal, so she smiled, “Angel, slow down a little and eat as much as you want.”Angel’s eyes blinked, her mother and father’s relationship had finally been improving, so she had not wanted to be their third wheel.After all, she had been pleased with this handsome daddy, and h
Henry slided over towards her. His eyes gazed at her pale face which had been the size of a palm, “Why didn’t you discuss it with me.”His daughter must have attended only the best school. Could she have even found the best school for Angel?Monique had been stunned. She looked at his perfect feature, his question sounded like he had been the man of the house. However, when she had given a thought about their relationship, he had only treated her as a lover. There had been nothing else to have discussed, and Angel was not related to him, so she should be the one to have decided which school is the best for her daughter.She had been stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips. She had a faint smile as she replied in a well-behaved look, “Angel is already four years old, and many parents started sending their children to kindergartens when they are three. I need to find a suitable kindergarten for Angel, so I can focus on my work as well.”“I’ll find the best kindergarten for Angel!” Hen
Henry frowned. His voice turned cold, “Angel would be disappointed if she had to leave the glory and wealth behind, but what about you? Would you want to leave after enjoying all these riches and having a gorgeous man like me by your side?”What a narcissist!She would not have wanted to leave?He was not going to be serious with her, he just wanted to have toyed with her. He could not have given her a home, and there had been nothing for her to have lingered in here, so there had been no reason for her to have stayed.She had always wanted to have left, but did she have a choice?Her lips curved up and mocked him, “Didn’t I say it earlier? It’s not up to me to decide. If you give me an order to leave, I’ll leave.”Did she not have any feelings for him?When she looked at this good-looking man in front of her, his facial feature was as perfect as it had been crafted by a skilled artist. His alluring thin lips could have taken a person’s breath away, no woman could have resisted this te
Monique was released from his grip, she helplessly leaned on the chair. She then stood up, turned around and went upstairs. When she turned her back on him, the muscles on her cheek relaxed like she never smiled before.She let out a sigh. She had endured for so long, and yet she was not able to resist the urge until the end. Monique should not have slipped her tongue. It looked like she could not escape tonight.She went upstairs and headed over to Angel’s room. Her daughter had already taken her bath and laid on the bed. When Angel saw her mother walk into her room, she rubbed her eyes, “Mommy, I want to sleep now. I can’t accompany you.”Monique walked toward her, she looked at her daughter’s rosy round face with a curvy nose. She had thick lashes and cherry lips, like a beautiful princess that walked out from a story book.“Alright, go to sleep,” Monique said as she bent over and gently kissed Angel’s foreheadThen she turned around and left the room.Angel’s eyes blinked.
