Mona was petrified. The man scared her. He must be some psychopath or mentally ill. “Sir, I’m not Susan Mayers. I’m married, and I have a husband!” Mona pulled her phone out of her purse. “Look!” She showed the man her contact history and the contact that she labeled ‘Honey’ was Thaddeus’s number. The man squinted. His eyes glistened in a dangerous glare. Afraid that the man did not believe her, she called Thaddeus and turned on speaker mode. “Honey?” “What’s the matter?” “Honey, I’m at Blue Orchid Club, please come and pick me up at room 1208.” Before Thaddeus could reply, she quickly hung up the phone. There was no time for her to explain, she had to escape this psychotic man first. Mona waved her phone at the man’s face as if she was taunting him with the call she had with Thaddeus. “Sir, my husband is coming to pick me up! I should be leaving!” The man released her. Disbelief and defeat flashed over his face. He could not accept the fact before his eyes.

The receptionist did a few taps on the computer and pulled up her member card details. “Ms. Ortega, there are currently eight hundred forty thousand credits in your member card.” Mona gulped nervously when she heard the amount. If she had known that there were that many credits inside, she would have sold the membership to someone else. What a waste! Other than Mona, Mariane and her friends were also shocked when they heard the amount. Their jaws dropped. They wondered where Mona got the money to join such an expensive membership. After all, spending in such a lavish beauty salon was nothing short of extravagant. Even they had to share a course among themselves to split the burden. They were only there to take some pictures and post them online to gain attention. Mona tried her best to hide her amusement. She smiled politely at the receptionist and said, “I'll give you my number for verification and use the member card this time. I’d like a quiet room, please.” “Very we

Mona sighed helplessly. “Ms. Colister, you are a celebrity. Could you please mind your words in public?” “You’re the one who should be mindful of yourself. What do I have to be afraid of?” Marianne lifted her chin arrogantly as if she wanted to make things worse for Mona. “Don’t you know that Mr. Fontaine is a married man? If this gets to his wife, you’ll be finished! Finished, I tell you!” Mona wanted to laugh out loud. She raised a brow and said, “Really?” She had no idea that ‘Mrs. Fontaine’ was a vengeful person who would hunt down every woman that her husband slept with outside. “I bet you don’t know that Mr. Fontaine keeps his wife away from the public’s eye. He’s only sleeping with you now because you’re his new toy. Once he’s fed up with you, he’ll throw you aside, just like he did with me. In the end, he only cares about his wife.” Mariane voiced her grievance with gritted teeth. She resented Mona.If it were not for Mona’s intervention, she would have slept wit

Mona’s shoot went on smoothly. The director even praised her for her sensibility in front of a camera, which delighted her. During break time, the director instructed her to get her makeup touched up in the changing room. So she walked out of the studio and decided to check on her kids first. As soon as she stepped out, she ran into Thaddeus, who was wearing a frosty look that veiled his emotions. Mona was startled. She sneaked a glance at her twins further away and started sweating nervously. Why would the man be here? Having him so close to the kids was giving her a heart attack! “Mona, let me introduce you to Mr. Thaddeus Fontaine, our sponsor and producer for the commercial. He’s also the CEO of Timez Group.” While Mona’s thoughts were scattered, the director stepped in and passionately introduced her to the man. “Don’t worry, Mr. Fontaine. Mona might be new in the industry, but she’s as good as those veterans. I’m sure you will be very happy with the outcome.” Thad

Mona did not linger any longer at the event. She left through the side door, away from the crowd. Marcus watched her leave without any scruples. He could not help but let out a sigh in admiration— Mona was a hero among women.Almost every woman out there idolized his boss, and were willing to kill to crawl into his bed. However, Mona was different. He was unclear if Mona was a person with integrity or she simply hated his boss but could not afford to offend him. Marcus went back to Thaddeus. “Sir, Ms. Ortega declined your request. She said she’s feeling unwell tonight and wanted to leave early.” Thaddeus swirled the wine in his glass silently and drained it to the last drop. Even Marcus gulped when he saw his boss’s sexy Adam’s apple move. “Sir, do you still want to keep room 502?” After all, he still had Marianne for the night. Thaddeus glanced at Marcus coldly. “You can have it.” The cold glance gave Marcus chills. “I’m single. Why would I want the room to my
