Clingy Love Chapter 220
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

“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

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
Clingy Love Chapter 225
Since Mona had her doubts, she could not put full confidence in the man’s story. She could not possibly take a stranger’s words at face value. Besides, the whole thing sounded far-fetched. Thaddeus gave her a ten-million-dollar necklace last night, and it, at least, showed that he cared enough to give the relationship something. Why would he harm her mother? Things were not as simple as they seemed. Mona drew a deep breath and asked, “You must know where my mother is. Give me the address, so I can save her from danger.” The man rattled off. “She’s in Neuffield. The rescue mission won’t be easy. Thaddeus has her under lock and key. I doubt you can pin her location down.” Mona remained unfazed. “I can call the cops.” The man smiled broadly but not for a good reason. “You are naïve, Ms. Susan Mayers. Your mother has been issued a death certificate years ago. The police will just think you’re a lunatic for sending them on a wild goose chase. Save your breath.” Mona fell sil

“I’m not too sure about that, but Mr. Fontaine is there to talk business.” In fact, Marcus knew what was going on. Thaddeus went to Neuffield to meet Mona’s mother. However, it was not something he could tell Mona. At the very least, it should not come from Marcus. “Alright. I got it. No need to get in touch with him. It can wait. I’ll talk to him when he comes back.” “Alright, Ms. Ortega. Just let me know if you need anything at all.” After hanging up the call, Mona hesitated for a bit but dialed Thaddeus’ number in the end. The phone rang for a while before it was connected. “What’s the matter?” The man’s husky voice was heard on the other end. “Nothing. I wanted to ask you when you intend to visit the kids.” “Why? Do the kids miss me?” The man’s tone reflected delight. It was the best thing in the world to feel needed by the children. “Yes. They’ve been talking about their trip with you to the amusement park this morning. Are you free today? Do you want to take them
Clingy Love Chapter 227
Isabel scoffed. “Just admit that you’re upset. Don’t pretend to be a good sport. There’s no one else here. Who are you acting for?” That comment was a bolt out of the blue to Mona. What did Isabel mean by acting? Was Mona not supposed to offer well-wishes? She guessed she could never do good in Isabel’s eyes. “Ms. Graham, I’m here to collect my final paycheck. Spare me details of your personal life.” Giving Isabel the cold shoulder, Mona made a beeline to the finance office. “Victor, why did you come so early to pick me up?” In the back, Isabel’s shrill and biting voice suddenly turned soft and tender. Mona got goosebumps. She looked back and saw Victor with a bouquet of flowers. God knew when he arrived. Paying him no mind, she hurried to the finance office to collect the paycheck. “Suzy, hold up,” Victor called Mona from behind. She stopped in her tracks, and her internal alarm bells were ringing off the roof. She had a feeling that the name “Suzy” was going to give
