Wrong Ride, Right Lover Chapter 271
Anxiety was building in his chest as Henry approached the car. He opened the car door to find Monique’s new phone on the car seat. The old phone and handbag had been stowed away in the storage compartment.Henry went around the car to access the compartment. The old phone and handbag were untouched. Did the woman run away?The memory of Simon Leeds waiting for Monique’s return to the city entered his mind and evoked unpleasant feelings.He made a call to Mrs. Lawson.Mrs. Lawson was downstairs waiting for Monique. She could sense the woman was in a bad mood.In the morning, Monique had left the house with the young master. Why was she back without him? Judging from her exhaustion, the woman must have made the journey back on foot.As Mrs. Lawson was debating whether to bring the food she prepared upstairs, the phone rang.The first question she heard was “Has Monique returned?”There was a note of restraint in the man’s voice.“She has. She brought Angel upstairs for a nap,” M

Mandy explained, “There were some complications at work so he might not be coming back tonight.”“Where’s Miss Xander?” Mandy’s eyes roamed around the house, trying to spot the woman.Mrs. Lawson glanced at the staircase leading upstairs. Monique was likely still resting. “Miss Xander is resting upstairs. I’ll pass it to her tomorrow.”“Alright. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave. There’s more to do at the office,” Mandy said with a smile.“Remind the Young Master to rest when he has to! Drive safe!” Mrs. Lawson called out.Chairman Moore was a headstrong man who listened to no one, let alone his secretary. “Bye, Mrs. Lawson!”Mrs. Lawson wondered why Monique left her handbag and phone in the office. Was that why she walked home? She had so many questions, yet so little answers.She placed the items aside. Some moments later, Monique came down with Angel in her arms.“Mrs. Lawson, I’m hungry.” Angel pouted at the older woman, puppy dog eyes at maximum level.Mrs. Laws

Monique did not want Mrs. Lawson to worry. Hence, she brushed off the walk home as if it had not been an arduous journey.This considerate side of her was what attracted people.Mrs. Lawson’s heart ached for the woman but all she said was, “Go on then. Freshen up and go to bed early. Angel has school tomorrow.”“Alright.” The mother and daughter left the dining table and made their way upstairs. After their nightly routine, Monique did some light reading with Angel before putting her to bed.Once Angel was asleep, Monique studied the new phone. She had wanted to text with her old phone but thought twice, knowing it would irritate the man. She was asking something from him after all.Although Henry had promised she could work in the company, he did not mention when she was to report to work, who she was reporting to, and what she would be doing.She had followed him to the office in the morning in hopes to get more details but was dragged out for a shopping trip instead. Then…Mo

Manager Harper was in the midst of winding down for the day when Chairman Moore’s phone call came. He instinctively hit the answer button before his brain could process why the chairman was calling. “Hello, Chairman Moore.”It was an unusually late call. Manager Harper wondered if he made any mistakes at work to warrant a personal scolding. He shivered and thought, ‘Was it because I didn’t arrange work for that woman who came by today?’Manager Harper’s heart raced.A deep, magnetic voice spoke on the other end resonated through. “Get a position ready for Monique Xander tomorrow.”Monique Xander?Chairman Moore’s female driver?The chairman was calling him for this?“Of course, of course,” Manager Harper said with a pinched smile.He did not know what position he should assign Monique so he asked timidly, “What position should I give her?”“She can have her pick,” Henry Moore said before ending the call.The cold, impassive tone sent chills down Manager Harper’s spine.He sh

Henry Moore’s eyebrows twitched. “You’re having a cold. You should see a doctor.”???What?Shaun froze. He found this scarier than an angry Chairman Moore.Was there a second meaning to the chairman’s words?Did he mean it literally?A doctor?Shaun was perplexed. “I’m fine, I had a late night so my throat is acting up. We need to go to the airport, there’s no time to see a doctor.”“Why are you shaking? Are you scared of me?” Henry commented as he stared coldly at Shaun. His gaze softened when he looked at his phone and typed out a reply to Monique, [Rest early.]She had said she missed him, and her racing heart felt as if it would jump out of her chest right then. There was no feedback from the other end.Henry Moore’s handsome face appeared in her mind. Those black eyes that were darker than night watched her like a hawk. She imagined his jaw opening like a snake as he threatened to swallow her whole. Monique was startled by the imagery and threw her phone aside.She onl

Angel gave her mother a peck on the forehead and bid her goodbye. “Bye, Mommy. Remember to pick me up later.”Monique stared lovingly at her daughter. The makeup she put on in the morning gave her a youthful appearance. “See you later, Angel.”Miss Sophia noticed that Monique was reluctant to leave even after Angel went into the building. She said, “Miss Xander, don’t worry. The teachers will take good care of your daughter.”Monique smiled at the teacher and said, “Thank you for yesterday. I’m sorry I needed to leave abruptly.”Miss Sophia remembered Mrs. Whitman’s words from yesterday. She did not blame Angel’s mother for feeling uncomfortable. “Don’t worry, Miss Xander. I feel a certain connection with you. If you don’t mind, I hope we can be friends.”“Of course. I would love to have you as a friend. Let’s chat another day, I have to get to work.” Monique was glad she found a friend in Miss Sophia. “Sure. Have a safe journey,” said Miss Sophia.The conversation with Miss So

Monique blushed as she answered, “My name is Monique Xander. I don’t know what position I’m applying for.”It was a ludicrous answer. An applicant who did not know what position she was applying for?Manager Harper stared at the woman.“Can you repeat yourself?” He needed confirmation. Was his ears or his eyes malfunctioning?The woman in his office was soft-spoken and polite. She was unlike her cousin, Yvonne Xander, who came by the day before.He imagined the woman to be foxy and melodramatic.Maybe someone arrogant and snobbish…Manager Harper stole a few glances downstairs but his short-sightedness meant all he saw was a blurry silhouette.The request made Monique nervous. She took a deep breath and said, “Hi, my name is Monique Xander. I was told by the chairman to report here.”Monique explained the situation in hopes to avoid an awkward situation.Manager Harper smiled knowingly and said, “You’re the chairman’s…Yes, the chairman did inform me about your arrival. Why do

Manager Harper was distraught. “Miss Xander, is it too hot? Let me add some ice.”He was anxious about the woman’s visit. She was a good actress as she kept up the innocent front while he panicked like a headless chicken.Monique placed the coffee on the table and smiled awkwardly. “It’s alright. I’ll let it cool down. I came for a job. Can you suggest a position that would suit me?” She looked expectantly at the man with a smile on her face.Manager Harper felt his legs tremble. They were back on topic after a slight detour. He saluted the woman’s commitment to the act.Monique was the only one seated. The power dynamics were clear.“What position interests you?” Manager Harper said with his trembling voice.“I don’t know. I was hoping you could tell me,” said Monique with a sheepish smile on her face.She did not have any office experience. Hence, she did not have much of an idea on what jobs would suit her. She turned to look at the person in charge.Only then did she realiz
