Clingy Love Chapter 217
Thaddeus’ reply left the press none the wiser. Everybody exchanged looks and was left guessing by his vague words. A gift suitable for a girlfriend? Was the girlfriend Samantha? It was not a lot of information to work with. While everybody reflected on the ambiguous statement, Thaddeus led Samantha into the main hall of the benefit. The camera captured the pair strutting their stuff on the red carpet. They made a lovely couple. Sitting in front of the television, Mona and Linda sat without saying a word. It was quiet in the room. “Wah…” The stiffness in the air was lifted by a cry. Millie pointed at Thaddeus behind the TV, looking rather hurt. “Daddy is with some other woman. Sob, sob. Daddy doesn’t want me anymore. He has gone with another woman. I’m going to have a cheating daddy like Gigi.” Linda immediately turned off the TV, held Millie, and soothed her, “Don’t cry. Don’t cry. Your daddy is working. The woman is not your daddy’s girlfriend. Don’t get the wrong
Clingy Love Chapter 218
Well, it made sense. Thaddeus was known to be generous, and he was the top bidder in a few renowned auctions. He even broke his own record. No one could beat him when it came to his benevolence at charitable events. “He doesn’t have a heart. It’s hard enough for him to commit wholeheartedly to one woman. Even if he does have a heart, all the women around him get a spot in his heart. No wonder he can blatantly tell anybody that they have his heart.” Mona hugged a cushion, put her index finger between her teeth, and faintly commented while watching the live broadcast. She was stupid to believe the man last night. “Stop watching the program. Just turn off the TV before our evening gets ruined any further.” Linda found the remote control to shut down the TV when Mona stopped her. “What are you doing? Doesn’t it upset you?” “What? What are you talking about?” Folding her legs, Mona grabbed the watermelon from the table and relished in delight. She was enjoying the program.

“Has Thaddeus lost his mind? Who is the necklace for?” Linda looked at the TV with wide eyes. The bid usually started off quite low in auctions, and the bidders would name their prices, adding to the number incrementally. The item would then go to the highest bidder. Since Thaddeus bade two hundred thousand dollars right from the start, it was clear that he must have the necklace. The other bidders, who observed in the dark and were itching to bid, had to give up on bidding and move on to the next item. It was a waste of energy to fight Thaddeus over an item. As if they could beat him... “Two hundred thousand dollars going once, two hundred thousand dollars going twice…” The auctioneer was about to hammer his gravel to seal the deal when a voice came from a corner. “Five hundred thousand.” The crowd turned their heads to the source of the voice, curious as to who would go up against Thaddeus. The spotlight moved there and shone on a young and charming face. However, the p

Samantha was filled with anticipation. If only the necklace would end up around her neck… “Ten million dollars going once, ten million dollars going twice…” This time, Victor did not raise his bidding card. Ten million dollars was not a price tag he could afford. “Sold for ten million dollars!” The auctioneer hammered his gavel with thrill. “Congratulations to Mr. Thaddeus Fontaine for acquiring the True Love’s Teardrop. Please make yourself known to the staff after the auction to collect the item.” “What is Thaddeus thinking? It’s a bit much to buy a gemstone necklace for ten million dollars.” Linda gasped in awe as she tried to wrap around what had happened. The world of the rich was beyond her, but Mona should get it. With a shrug, Mona picked up the remote control and turned off the TV. “Who knows what’s going on in that mind of Thaddeus’? Maybe he’s in a good mood to splurge on his fiancée.” Without putting much thought, Mona rose to her feet and went upstairs to
Clingy Love Chapter 221
Thaddeus could not stand women’s tears the most, especially when they were people he could not care less about. Why would he waste time on them? “I’m sorry, Thaddeus. It hurt me so much that you won’t be in my life anymore.” Samantha put her hand over her mouth and wailed endlessly. Contempt grew within Thaddeus. “You’re an individual. Will you die if I left you? Your life isn’t worth much if you live for someone else.” Samantha was dumbstruck. Nothing seemed to get through to the guy, and he even mocked her with cutthroat remarks. There was no predicting with him. “Thaddeus, I’m a woman. That’s a hurtful and demeaning thing to say.” “Honestly, your antics are getting old. I’m sick of it.” Thaddeus curtly remarked before sauntering past her to head to the parking lot. Refusing to back down, Samantha went in hot pursuit and hugged the man from behind. “Let go!” It was taxing on Thaddeus’ patience, but if it was not for his respect for women, he would have shoved Samant

Samantha curled her lips and smiled. “Do you think Thaddeus would make a bad business call? If my guess is right, the necklace should be for Mona. You, poor man. You waited for more than a decade only for your first love to be taken by your uncle. You’re no better than I am.” Envy and resentment flickered across Victor’s eyes. Gritting his teeth, he said, “They aren’t married, and even if they are, divorce is highly possible. There’s no telling who will be the last one laughing.” Samantha clicked her tongue and shook her head. “It sounds like someone is not planning to give up. They have children together. Do you think you still stand a chance?” “What about you? You cooked up an elaborate scheme, only to be on the losing end. Do you think you can ever call it quits?”The expression on Samantha’s face stiffened, making her look guilty of something. “What do you mean by an elaborate scheme?” Raising a brow, Victor smiled in disdain. “Susan’s fall into the sea wasn’t an acc
Clingy Love Chapter 223
“Why are you giving me the necklace?” The jewelry box suddenly felt heavy in Mona’s hand. “What do you mean? It’s a gift for you.” Thaddeus took a glance inside the house and noticed the signs of someone else living there. “Did another man come here after I left?” Mona rolled her eyes at him. “You’re crazy.” Thaddeus held the door so that Mona could not lock him out again. “I don’t want the necklace. Give it to someone else.” A ten-million-dollar necklace was too rich for her neck. The man answered, “Alright. I’ll get your name engraved on it tomorrow.” Mona furrowed her brows. “Have you gone mad, Thaddeus? Why are you so wasteful?” The ring lost its value the moment her name was inscribed on the inner band. No pawn shop would even accept it. A certain somebody answered unabashedly, “Well, it’s your fault for not accepting the gift.” Peeved, Mona gave him the brush. She lowered her gaze to the sapphire necklace and rubbed the stone between her fingers. The gemston
Clingy Love Chapter 224
It was a good example right now. Thaddeus got Mona the most expensive gift to show his feelings to her since no woman could resist jewelry. It was a romantic gesture to reflect that she was the only one for him. However, it backfired on him. He seemed to have gone about it the wrong way. Thaddeus stood at the door for a while, only turning around and leaving when he was sure that Mona would not open the door for him. On his way back, Thaddeus got a call from his employee that the woman Samantha mentioned had been located. She was Susan’s mother, and the employee needed Thaddeus to make a trip over to confirm if this was the case. After much thought, the man turned around and took the highway to the destination. …It was late into the night when Mona lay in bed. Thaddeus’ visit swept away her drowsiness, and now she tossed and turned in bed. The phone on her bedside table beeped. She took her phone and saw a notification of a mail. The sender was none other than the myster
