"What's so secretive about it?" Monique asked then started eating.Monique did not have the appetite to eat. However, she still forced herself to eat something after she saw Louise taking the effort to prepare so many dishes."I was just wondering...I want to ask you something. Please promise me you won't get mad ok?" Louise asked as she looked at Monique with caution.Louise could still remember that nervous expression Monique had when she mentioned Henry's name earlier that morning.She was worried that Monique might give a huge reaction as she was about to mention Henry again.Louise did not have an idea about what happened to Simon, who brought Angel here in search of Monique and got arrested by the cops. Judging from the photos, it seemed that the gentleman in it had a good relationship with Monique.Monique could guess that Louise was about to ask her something regarding Henry as she felt a pinch in her heart. Yet, she put on a smile to conceal her emotions. She said, "Feel
Monique raised her head with her gaze fixed upon Louise. She then asked with a trembling voice, "Will you love a man who wanted to choke you to death? Louise, do you know just how I wished he would have just choked me to death. Instead, he kept me alive and told me that I have no right to choose death before he was done having fun with me! In fact, I can't be choosing death as I still have Angel!"Monique felt utterly devastated. She was peeling off the scars that formed over her wounds, as she lifted her head. She stared at the ceiling while trying hard to hold back her tears. Nevertheless, tears continued streaming down her face and all the way into her ears.Louise was dumbfounded as she widened her eyes in astonishment. She never witnessed someone so helpless and downhearted."He thinks I'm dirty. He dragged me into the bathroom and sprinkled me with cold water for a whole half an hour. The water was icy cold. So cold that it was as though it was prickling into my bones. I’m so
Louise wiped off her tears and sneered, "Don't keep thanking me, you're going to make me cry."Monique placed her hands on her lips and let out a faint smile as she saw Louise on the brink of bursting into tears. At the same time she forced out a smile on her face and said, "Alright, I won't say it anymore."Louise reached out for a piece of tissue on the dining table and wiped the tears off Monique's face. She said, "From now on, just let me know whenever you have any problems. We'll go through it together."Monique nodded.Louise put on a stern expression as she looked at Monique"Do you have something else to ask me?" Monique asked.Louise felt troubled. She thought it was not the right time. 'If Mr. Leeds is someone who Monique really loved, then it’ll still be up to her to solve this incident.'It was already late that day and Louise was wondering what the chairman did to Simon."Is it true about what happened between you and Mr Leeds?" Louise asked.Mr. Leeds?Monique w
Monique was staring coldly as she muttered, "No wonder Angel sounded rather angry when she called me. I didn't know it was because of this."Monique came back to her senses after being stunned for a few seconds. She realized the most important thing to do was to look for Simon. She reached out to her handphone in her pocket and kept dialing Simon.His handphone was turned off.Monique was holding on to her handphone and was trembling. She glanced at Louise and said, "I want to go over to the kindergarten and have a look."Louise nodded, "Yeah, maybe he already returned."Monique's eyelashes were shaking as she was holding on dearly to the faint gleam of hope.She sincerely hoped that she could meet Simon at the kindergarten.Monique was restless in the car as the sky started pouring. She wanted to give Simon another call but she knew it was pointless as he turned his handphone off.Monique immediately got down from the car as soon as they reached the kindergarten. She did not b
Henry arrived very early at the company. The company was quiet as no one came to work yet.He strode out from the elevator and went to the reception desk of the secretary department. Henry seldom went over to the secretary department as it was always the secretaries who would approach and report to him.Henry could still recall when Monique was squatting down and looking very miserable as her shirt was touching the floor. Everything including the floor was stained with coffee.Monique, who looked rather anxious and cautious, made Henry's heart melt as he had an urge to offer her a helping hand. Henry curled his sexy lips and frowned.However, Monique was forced to get her clothes changed. Every single person was trying all means just to get closer to Henry. No matter how slim the chances were, they would definitely cling on to it. However, it was different with Monique. She kept her distance away from him as though he was a monster.Henry's facial muscles tensed up as the image of
Angel was holding onto her handphone and giving it a second thought before she decided to call Henry.Henry saw it was a call from Angel. After giving it some thought, he finally picked up the call."Daddy!" Angel said with a soft voice."Hey, have you had your breakfast?" Henry said with his attractive and gentle voice.Angel replied, "Yes, it's delicious!"Henry continued, "Great!"It was a boring conversation over the phone as Angel raised her head and beamed out the window. She asked, "Daddy, why did you go to the company so early in the morning?"Henry straightened himself up and leaned against the sofa. He began to explain, "I've some documents from yesterday that were yet to be dealt with. So I came very early to get it done!""Then how was the incident with uncle Leeds? Was it settled already?" Angel expressed her concern, "Uncle Leeds did not kidnap me, he’s the principal of the kindergarten. I'm the one who asked for his help. Uncle Leeds did not have the intention to
"I don't want to. The kindergarten’s a nice place to study, and Miss Sophia and Miss Christine are good to me." Angel was reluctant to transfer to another kindergarten. She loved being there; the teachers were all kind to her.Henry just faintly agreed. "Then, I'm off to work. Be a good girl at home!""Ok, remember Uncle Leeds!" Angel reminded once again before hanging up the call.Henry hung up, his expression as dark as charcoal. His cold and sharp eyes emanated cold vibes and an aura of bloodlust engulfed his body.The bandage covering his wounds was now soaked in blood; his wounds had opened up when he grasped the sofa.However, he felt no pain as he grabbed a vase and hurtled it to the floor.A loud crash was heard.He made a call to someone, but the latter did not pick up.Again, he called, but the result did not change.He called another number and within a split second, the call went through.Last night, Henry sent Stella back home. She was very pleased and thrilled,
'She thinks I'm only worth 500 bucks?'Last night, Logan was so mad, he fired the security guard that was supposed to be keeping an eye on Louise on the spot.He then went back to the pub and continued drinking till it was almost dawn before he headed back home to sleep.Yet, as soon as he fell asleep, he heard someone persistently knocking on his door.He did not feel like opening the door and did not have the strength to talk. However, the person knocking was being exceptionally persistent.This made Logan exasperated.Stella shouted when she realized that Logan had no intention of opening up. "Bro, if you're not opening the door, I'll get someone to break it open!"Logan was left with no choice. He got out of bed and opened the door."Stella Graham, you’ve got guts. ‘Break my door’!" Logan stood at the doorway, eyes shut."Henry’s asking for you, it seems urgent!" Stella said anxiously. Judging from Henry's cold tone, something might have happened.Logan recovered slightly
