Monique tried to calm her mind. 'Well Monique, it looks like you're out of choice. Since you've made the decision, then just go with the flow and enjoy the life given.'She leaned over to Henry as her soft lips kissed his handsome face. She said softly, "I'll slowly get used to it, but for now, please put me down. It's embarrassing with so many people staring at us."Monique immediately buried her face into Henry's muscular chest after she kissed him. Her face was blushed like a cherry, looking very alluring.Henry was stunned as his chest could feel her warmth. A delightful smile was plastered on his face as he could imagine Monique's shy looks without even needing to take a glimpse of her."Ding." The door of the elevator opened.While Henry was still daydreaming, Monique took advantage of it and jumped out of his arms and ran out of the elevator.His smile got wider when he saw her escaping silhouette as he trailed her.Monique thought they had reached the first floor of the
Monique snapped out of her daze and came back to her senses after having her hands held on by Henry as she stared at the towering silhouette. Perhaps no woman would be able to withstand the temptation from Henry when he was being gentle.'Oh Monique, you need to remain calm!''Henry is just treating you like his mistress—who can be replaced anytime, so don't indulge yourself too deep into it.'Monique managed to calm herself.The waitress pulled out a chair and Monique sank into it and sat in a well-mannered way like a primary school kid."Feel free to order whatever you want to eat." Henry placed the menu in front of Monique.Monique smiled faintly as she took over the menu. Monique glanced through each item on the menu, without the thrilling expression she had earlier. Of course, she did not notice Henry's loving smile on his face.Monique took up the offer and went ahead to place her order since Henry brought her here to spend money. After all, she was here to learn the way t
Henry frowned as he spoke with his low and faint voice, "Stretch out your hand."It sounded as though he was giving an order.Monique stood motionless. 'For god sake, please don't be so kind to me. How am I supposed to keep myself composed if you keep behaving like a gentleman.'Seeing Monique—who was spaced out—refusing to obey his command, Henry felt frustrated as his big palms held onto Monique's slim arm by force.This action ended up hurting Monique's wrist as she shrieked in pain, "Ouch!"On the other hand, Henry's straight silhouette gave off a chilling vibe, and along with his cold stare, it seemed as though the temperature in the atmosphere had dropped significantly, causing others to feel suffocated.However, Monique felt that the pain on her wrist and the coldness Henry emitted seemed much familiar as she felt much better and was not as terrified as before.Suddenly, she gave it a second thought, “Hey Miss Monique, are you a masochist? Why would you feel better after
Back at the entrance of Marriott International.Yvonne was standing at the main entrance of the big building, staring at the sign stating 'Marriott International' under the blazing sunlight. Yvonne was impressed as Marriott International was way more luxurious than what she had imagined."This place is huge." Yvonne was surprised. She had heard rumors of Marriott International but never had the chance to personally be in such a glamorous arena.Her eyes were sparkling. Henry Moore was the head of this high-rise building which was the headquarter of Marriott International, and there were plenty of branch companies throughout the entire world.Yvonne was sure that as long as she managed to get her hands on Henry, she would be able to always be in the spotlight for the rest of her life.She was becoming excited just thinking of having such a life.To enable herself to live such a luxurious life, she would not even hesitate to marry an old man, let alone a stunning looking gentleman.
Yvonne raised her brows with arms crossed. "I'm Monique's sister."That was her first time proudly introducing herself as Monique's sister.The lady at the reception was startled, wondering why the name being mentioned sounded so familiar but she just could not recall who it was. "Who’s this Monique?"Louise, who was busy at a corner, suddenly heard Monique's name being mentioned. She suddenly stood up and came over to the reception and said, surprisingly, "You're Monique's sister?"No wonder she looked familiar.The lady standing in front of Louise had put on makeup. To Louise, Yvonne did look attractive—even her facial features were somewhat similar to Monique. However, upon closer look, it was obviously because the makeup made her look stunning. Yvonne's beauty was not on par with Monique's.Yvonne met someone who knew that Monique had made an appearance at the office, and she was sure that Monique was the chairman's girlfriend so she started boasting. "You're right. I'm here
"Do-Doo… Do-Doo… Sorry, the person you're calling can’t come to the phone right now, please leave a message after the beep." Louise frowned, as no one picked up the call.She dialed again and heard the same thing.It was not a mistake that this lady was Monique's sister. What Louise was doubting and finding it hard to believe was whether Monique really asked Yvonne to come forth to get a job in Marriott International.However, Monique was not answering her call. Louise sighed and gave up as she went ahead and led Yvonne to the personnel department.When Louise came out from the washroom, Yvonne was nowhere to be seen.Yvonne was unsatisfied with being led to the washroom by Louise. Without informing Louise, she left the scene.Yvonne walked to the elevator and met a gentleman in a suit. She asked with a smile, "Can I know the way to the personnel department?"The gentleman saw Yvonne—a pretty, dolled-up face—approaching him with a friendly demeanor and decided to escort her to t
In fact, Charlotte really meant to say, ‘Please take this freak out of here!’Louise smiled at Charlotte apologetically and dragged Yvonne aside. "Why did you come here by yourself?"Yvonne snorted. "None of your business."Louise's expression darkened. If it was not for Monique, she would not even be bothered about her. She clenched her teeth and said, "I called your sister, so let's wait for her to come before taking this further."While Louise was on her way, she kept dialing Monique but the latter did not pick up the call. 'I wonder what is she up to?' Nevertheless, Louise still had faith in Monique that she would immediately call back once she saw the missed calls.Yvonne was anxious when she heard that Louise had called Monique. However, Yvonne noticed that Louise did not seem to be rejecting the idea of her seeking a job there as Louise only said to wait until Monique showed up.However, Yvonne found it weird as it did not sound like Monique's usual reaction. Yvonne got cu
Yvonne Xander harrumphed, and said, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll complain to the chairman about how you all mistreated me?”Charlotte’s eyes widened in disbelief. What the hell was she up to? She looked at Manager Harper pitifully as if to say, ‘Dear manager, help me out please!’Manager Harper had been working for Marriott International for two decades. He had dealt with all sorts of situations. He gestured with his eyes to comfort Charlotte and signaled her to step aside.“How may I help you, Miss?” Manager Harper leaned against the chair as he asked Yvonne.Yvonne stood there and scoffed, “The chairman told me to look for you and to give me a decent position in this company.”She disrespected him blatantly as he was merely a human resource manager.Manager Harper turned around and glanced at Charlotte.Charlotte immediately said, “She claims to be the younger sister of the chairman’s driver, Monique.”Manager Harper was aware of Monique. The staff from the chairman’s office
