“It’s selling like hot cakes?” Mona did not understand what that saying meant.

Ben smiled and explained, “Yes, the part-time university students we found went to the dorms to sell the jewelry you designed. They all said that the sales this time were great, and they managed to sell the goods to almost every customer. The demand is catching up with our supply.”

“That’s great. How much did we earn?”

“I haven’t checked the books yet, but it’s definitely a lot.”

“Great!”

Mona felt surprised. She did not expect her designs to be best sellers. Her heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

“The money was intended to be used as Grandpa Gray’s treatment fee. In the end, your husband, as the honorary director of this hospital, exempted all the fees at once. Thus, we plan to set up a studio with the sales profit.”

“Wow, that’s great news.”

“Ms. Ortega, you should come up with a name for the studio. You’ll be the boss of the studio. In the future, Tim and I will listen to you.”

“Me?

    Tim narrowed his eyes, glanced at Mona coldly, and said with a straight face, “You’re imagining things.”“Well, I hope so. No matter what happened, cheer up.”Mona stood up and did not say anything more. Tim was obviously in a bad mood and was deliberately distancing himself from her. Furthermore, it seemed he was somewhat angry. She did not know what he was angry about. Nonetheless, it was not her who angered him anyway.Just as she stepped forward to go to the doctor’s office, Tim suddenly spoke up and called out to her.“Wait.”Mona stopped, turned around, and looked at Tim in confusion. “What’s wrong?”“Are you and Thaddeus Fontaine really husband and wife?”Mona sensed something strange. Was that the reason why Tim was in a bad mood?Could it be...“He’s the biological father of my two children.”“I’m asking you if you’re husband and wife.” Tim’s tone was domineering and forceful, stunning Mona for a moment.“Wait, why do I have to answer that question? Why are you rais

    The window of the passenger seat slowly lowered, revealing a sunny and handsome face.Mona looked over and saw Tim.“Where are you going? I’ll give you a ride.”Tim looked normal as if nothing had happened.Mona figured that since she told him to act as if nothing happened, she should not appear embarrassed. Otherwise, it would make her seem petty.She smiled graciously at Tim and said, “Is this car yours?”“Yeah.”Tim got down from the driver’s seat and went around the car to open the passenger side door for her.“This is the most ordinary one of the many cars I have.”Mona was startled, feeling that Tim was acting strangely. He had always been very low-key. Why was he suddenly showing off his wealth in front of her?“You seem to have a lot of cars. Do you like them?”“Yeah, it’s just for fun.”“Oh, you’re pretty rich.”Mona glanced over casually and got into the car without continuing the topic.Tim leaned forward into the car, shortening the distance between them.

    The man got out of the car, holding a black umbrella in his hand and another umbrella in his other hand. He walked over to the security booth.“I knew you didn’t bring an umbrella. Let’s go, I’ll take you back home. Children will get a cold easily if they’re caught in the rain.”For her children’s sake, Mona did not refuse. She took the umbrella from Tim’s hand and opened it.“We’ll take one of the children each.”The two adults got into the car while carrying the children. The rain grew more and more intense with no signs of stopping.“Give me your address. I’ll set the GPS.”Mona told him her address, and Tim drove toward the district she mentioned while driving with one hand on the steering wheel.“The neighborhood you live in isn’t cheap.” Tim glanced at Mona and asked, “Did the children’s father buy it for you?”Mona replied, “He helped me find a new home, but I can afford to buy it myself.”“I know you’re great, but don’t work too hard and do everything so seriously. You

    Mona took the two children into the building and thanked Tim. “Thank you. Bobby, Millie, say bye-bye.”Bobby and Millie waved at Tim and said goodbye with a smile.“How lovely.” Tim rubbed the children’s heads, then looked at Mona and asked, “How are you going to thank me? Won’t you invite me up for some tea to warm up?”Mona was about to refuse as Thaddeus was at her home. However, even if he was not, she still would not want Tim to come up.“Mister, my daddy doesn’t like other guys coming to our house. I think it’s better you don’t come up since Daddy has a bad temper. He hits people if he gets angry.”Millie waved her fist and warned Tim before Mona could speak.“Aren’t you divorced?” Tim’s expression was astonished as he asked Mona.They were still living together despite being divorced?“Yes.” Mona did not explain herself. “We’ll get going now. I’ll treat you to coffee another time.”Tim was slightly disappointed. He stood where he was as he watched Mona and the children

    “Nope. A guy drove us home. He’s Mommy’s friend.”A dark light flashed in Thaddeus’s eyes, hiding a dangerous killing intent.Millie did not notice and shook her head as she ate her drumstick.“What did that guy say to your mommy?”“Hm. Let me think...” Millie’s mouth was stuffed full with meat from the delicious drumstick. She vaguely told Thaddeus everything she could remember, including how Tim told Mona not to work too hard and how she would get old quickly.When Thaddeus heard this, it became harder to hold back the anger in his heart.That boy said all that clearly because he wanted to become the children’s stepfather.“What’s wrong, Daddy?” Seeing Thaddeus’s dark expression, Millie raised the drumstick to his mouth and said, “Have a bite.”Thaddeus rubbed his throbbing temples, furious.From his experience as a man in his thirties, he knew that if he was not at home, Tim would surely ask Mona to invite him up for a cup of coffee. In a place like home, he would have ma

    Mona was speechless.She rarely argued with the man. In fact, they never argued before. It was not because she was generous, but because Thaddeus did not care about anything. Almost nothing could affect his mood.Mona could not understand what was going on this time. All she did was not come home in his car. Did he have to get so angry?“So, that’s why you’re angry tonight?”“Who said I’m angry?” Thaddeus snorted coldly. He flipped through the book and asked casually, “Has Tim been pursuing you recently?”Mona paused for a moment, remembering Tim’s confession to her today.Was this man an esper? How did he know everything?Mona was vague and did not answer the question directly.“Why? Do you want him to pursue me?”“Do as you like. It has nothing to do with me.”The man slapped the book on the desk and pushed the wheelchair to the window, turning his cold and mysterious back to Mona.Mona pursed her lips, more or less guessing the reason why Thaddeus was angry.It was the m

    Due to the urgency of the matter, Marcus immediately informed Thaddeus about it. When they arrived at the warehouse in the suburbs, the workers had already put out the fire and were carrying the goods inside.Thaddeus’s cold face was calm and serious. When he stepped into the warehouse, his presence gave the workers a sense of intimidation and distance, and everyone worked hard to do their jobs.“Chins up, everyone. It’s time to earn your salary.”Thaddeus glanced at the workers and spoke in an imposing voice.The ground was flooded, and the goods piled up inside had to be carried out as soon as possible to reduce losses.While giving out commands, Thaddeus rolled up his trouser legs, took off his suit jacket, and threw it at Marcus. Then, he joined the team of workers in carrying the goods. His tall body bent down and worked together with them.Marcus had long been accustomed to this part of Thaddeus’s behavior. While outsiders saw Thaddeus for how bright and dazzling he was, th

    Marcus heard the helplessness in Thaddeus’s tone and sighed.On one hand, was his hatred for Yvonne, and on the other hand, was his love for her daughter. He must be feeling very conflicted.The complicated family feud was not something that Marcus, a mere assistant, could interfere with. So Marcus simply continued to drive.When they arrived at Bits and Bites, the sky was slightly brighter. However, it was still too early, and they had to wait a while before the breakfast store opened.After buying all of Mona’s favorites, Marcus looked at the time and urged Marcus to drive back to Galaxy Bay as quickly as possible.Marcus sped all the way to the destination. It was only when he looked back did he realize that Thaddeus had fallen asleep in the backseat.“Sir?”He called out, but Thaddeus did not respond and continued sleeping like a log.Thaddeus had stayed up all night last night doing physical work. A normal person would have collapsed from the effort.Marcus looked at the

    The couple was tired after a time of bonding, and they lay on the wicker chair, closing their eyes before slipping into dreamland. Sometime later, Thaddeus felt a chill and opened his eyes. His T-shirt was wet, and Bobby and Millie were spraying water at him with water guns. The youngest child was nearby too in her stroller. She suckled on a pacifier and watched the bustle. “Where’s your mommy?” Thaddeus shuffled his hair and looked around, searching for Mona. “Freeze, Daddy. We have held Mommy captive. Surrender yourself to us.” Acting like the boss, Millie pointed her massive water gun at her daddy. Thaddeus had indulged his eldest daughter so much that the girl would only have things her way. Nevertheless, Thaddeus played along since it was only a game. He knew his children well. Millie took after Mona and was shrewd. Still, Millie would be on her best behavior when in public. “Hurry up and surrender, Daddy. Put your hands up, and we will release Mommy.” Millie poked

    It was a cooling breeze for the Summer as flowers bloomed in the garden of Fontaine Residence. Mona rested on a wicker chair under the wine arbor, holding in hand the latest issue of the weekly design magazine, with her face on the cover. In the photo, she held a trophy up on the stage of a design competition, standing out amidst the radiant background. Since the birth of her youngest, Mona took a month off for rest before picking up her passion again and returning to the world of design. Recently, she won first place in an international design competition and found fame. Mona was happy with her life and enjoyed the rich and peaceful state of things. She had time to herself for once during the weekend, so she found a quiet spot to enjoy time alone while the kids had a nap. The sunlight shone over Mona through the leaves, basking her in warmth. She let out a yawn and closed her eyes for a nap. Thaddeus walked out of the house and saw the woman enjoying the moment of bliss. The t

    “Mommy, did the baby kick you today?” Millie wobbled her way over and placed her hand on Mona’s belly. She could feel the baby stirring inside her mommy’s stomach. Millie was pleasantly surprised. “The baby kicked me! Mommy, is the baby swimming inside your belly?” “Yeah. The baby is kicking.” Mona affectionately caressed her belly. The fetus had been kicking and rolling a lot more lately, so she could not get much sleep. The tall and strong man drew near and looked tenderly at Mona. His husky voice lingered in Mona’s ear. “Weren’t you craving strawberries? I placed an order, and the fruit is being airlifted here as we speak. It’ll arrive tonight.” “Yay.” Mona was gleeful. Since the beginning of her pregnancy, she had become quite fussy and craved the strangest food. She wanted caviar from Japan, cookies from France, and strawberries from the highlands. Anything she asked for would be transported fresh to the house the next day.The man had taken good care of her during her en

    “No. I won’t let myself go.” The man huffed heavily after finishing his sit-ups. Then, he rolled out of bed and got changed in the walk-in closet. Mona stared at the man’s well-toned back, gasping at his body upkeep. People would probably have a hard time believing he was a father of three. With that in mind, Mona became aware of a potential threat. She got up and drew close to the man. “You’re responsible for taking care of the baby once the child is born.” Thaddeus straightened his tie. “Alright. I can do that. I want to be present in the baby’s life and your pregnancy. You should rest at home once your belly gets bigger. I’ll handle Bobby and Millie’s school run, okay?” The man pinched Mona’s face dotingly. “Now you’re talking. Are you heading out?” Mona got up on her tiptoes to brush off the dust from his shoulders. “Yeah. I need to sort out a lot of paperwork.” “I wrote down notes of the meeting I attended on your behalf a few days ago.” Mona walked out to retrieve a

    Thaddeus was in the hospital for a week before he was discharged. The election day for the successor of the Fontaine Group was two weeks later, but Thaddeus had not made a full recovery in his legs. He remained in a wheelchair and persisted in his daily physiotherapy. Mona had a room freed up in Fontaine Residence for Thaddeus’ rehabilitation. A specialized doctor would come around the house every day to help Thaddeus with his recovery. Thaddeus was a strong man to fight through the pain in his physiotherapy sessions. That day, Mona watched as the workers hung a decorative painting on the wall in the hallway. She ordered paintings of her preference and had them shipped from abroad. Mona instructed the workers to put it up, not paying attention to the wobbly painting that had been hung behind her. The painting was about to hit her from the back. Thaddeus was exiting the rehabilitation room when he caught sight of the danger. Getting up from his wheelchair, Thaddeus took large stri

    The few pictures of Mona and Victor at the height of a tussle gave the impression that they were having an intimate moment. Thaddeus went through the photos with a look of disdain. “So you stood there and pretended to take pictures of me to show me these? You set my wife up with another man to tell me she was cheating on me?” It was not hard to guess the game the paparazzi were playing, but who was he trying to fool? The man was dumbstruck, as it never occurred to him that Thaddeus could see through him. It had taken the three of them to come up with the idea. However, it had not taken much for Thaddeus to foil their plan. Mona let out a relieved smile. She thought that Thaddeus would be furious at the look of the pictures and had prepared herself to give a long explanation. She was surprised that Thaddeus quickly saw through the attempt to drive them apart. Their relationship was solid, and no one could come between them. Mona thought to herself with glee when she took

    Mona stood in front of Thaddeus, blocking his face as she confronted the paparazzi who took their picture. “Hand over the camera!” “There’s nothing in the camera. Besides, it’s my personal property. Why should I give it to you?” “You clearly took a picture of my husband. You have some nerve to say there’s nothing.” Mona grabbed the man by the wrist and lifted her foot to kick. Thaddeus grabbed her wrist to stop her. “You’re pregnant. Think about the child.” Thaddeus pulled Mona back, leaving himself exposed to the paparazzi. “Why do you want to photograph me? Do you want to see me in a wheelchair? Take a picture then.” Thaddeus pulled a straight face. His nonchalant gaze spoke of intimidation. Dumbstruck, the paparazzi looked at Thaddeus’ legs and smiled dryly. “What happened to your legs, Mr. Fontaine?” Thaddeus did not answer. However, his dark eyes flicked chillingly as he looked murderously at the paparazzi. Even in a wheelchair, Thaddeus did not have to say anythi

    With the help of the two caretakers, Thaddeus sat in the wheelchair. He had overcome his emotions and pulled himself together. His mind was clear as he sorted out what he should do next. Thaddeus called the assistant into the room and laid out the following plan. “I won’t attend any media interviews before the election, but I won’t disappear from the public eye either. I don’t want to give the press something to talk about. My wife will represent me. Going forward, whatever she says or does will be considered my own. She has the authority to attend all corporate conferences, big or small.” Mona dropped her jaw in shock. She was to attend company meetings and speak on his behalf. It was trying to make the impossible happen. On second thought, Thaddeus must have his reasons to do so. She had the confidence to do a good job anyway. The assistant took note of everything Thaddeus said. The Fontaine Group was about to choose its next leader, and with Thaddeus still in recovery, the

    “It’s okay. That’s normal after surgery. The doctor gave me a heads-up. Since it’s a brain operation, you might have damage to the motor nerve. With the help of physiotherapy, you’ll be back to running in no time.” Mona consoled Thaddeus. Thaddeus lifted his hands and gave Mona a gentle push. “Leave.” Mona froze. She looked at the man who was fine a second ago, not knowing what to do. “Can you leave? I need some time alone,” Fixing his gaze on Mona, Thaddeus spoke callously. “Okay. I’ll be right outside if you need me.” It dawned on Mona why the man was persistent in driving her away. He did not want her to see him at his worst. In a way, he was trying to protect his pride and dignity as a man. However, they were a married couple. Mona would never turn her back on him. Mona could understand the man’s vulnerability and his feelings at the moment. Hence, she said nothing and quietly left the ward to give Thaddeus the time and space to sort his emotions.
