The day after Thaddeus left on a business trip, the woman who tried to commit suicide was discharged from the hospital. The driver took her directly to Fontaine Residence. Since Thaddeus had given everyone the heads-up, the maids had made preparations in advance by tidying up the guest room. The woman sat by the bed with a pale face. Layers of white gauze were wrapped around her wrist as she looked down to fold paper stars. “You shouldn’t fold them with your hand injured like that.” Mona stopped her and kept all the folded stars on the table in a glass jar. When the woman’s hands were suddenly empty, her gaze became empty as well. She looked up at Mona in a daze. “Who are you? Why are you in Thaddeus’ house?” Mona pursed her lips and answered, “I’m a maid here to look after you.” The woman seemed to believe what she said and relaxed. She stopped looking at Mona with enmity. “My name is Mona. What’s yours?” Mona looked at the woman’s eyes and saw herself through her pu
Mona was a little worried when she heard that. She raised her head and looked at the woman, asking, “What if you’re not?”The woman’s face suddenly became ferocious. Her eyes were ruthless and murderous as she gritted her teeth and said, “Then I’ll die! I’ll take him and that other woman with me, and we’ll all die together!”Mona’s heart thumped. This woman was crazy and too extreme.“Calm down.”Mona soothed the woman, placing a hand on the latter’s uninjured wrist. She felt the woman’s pulse and quickly figured out her physical condition.The woman was extremely agitated. If she continued on like that, her condition would only get worse and even devolve into severe bipolar disorder.“You’re ill.”Mona sighed and hugged the woman in front of her, gently patting her back and saying softly, “Sweetheart, you can’t carry on like this. You need to learn to control your desires.”The woman leaned into Mona’s embrace and smelled her hair, feeling her whole body relax and become comfo
When Jennifer saw that her words could not irritate Mona, she became even more angry and annoyed.“I’m right, aren’t I? You’re just after his money.”Jennifer sneered. “You sold your body and gave birth to children, but in the end, you’re just an abandoned wife. A woman like you can only end up like your filthy mother. You’ll live in the gutters forever!”Mona stopped and turned back to look at Jennifer. She narrowed her eyes and gazed at the latter’s elegant and luxurious dress.What a shame. Under that gorgeous appearance hid a vicious and scathing heart. Even the words she spoke were vulgar.“So what if I’m after his money?” Mona crossed her arms and raised her chin. Her calm eyes rested on Jennifer’s face. “If your son is willing to spend money on me, that’s thanks to my ability. It’s a skill that I know how to rely on men. We’re both women. As someone who has been through it all, you know better than me that mutual attraction between a man and woman doesn’t last long with jus
“I’ll handle it, then. You guys can go and do other work.”Mona did not bicker with them. She pretended not to know anything and focused on brewing the medicine.One of the maids came over and asked her, “Madam, what is this medicine for?”“To calm the mind.”“Oh, I see. We’ll get back to work now.”“Mm.”The maids exchanged glances, gave each other a look, and ran away.Once Mona finished brewing the medicine, she went to the woman’s room with a bowl.The woman was still sitting on the bed, hunched over with her head lowered. Her hands had not stopped folding paper stars.Mona walked over and put down the medicine bowl. She took the stack of paper from the woman’s hand and folded the unfinished stars.“Drink the medicine first, and I’ll help you to fold them. Are you trying to fill this bottle with paper stars?”The woman raised her head. Her gloomy face turned slightly more radiant at Mona’s words as she felt that Mona understood her.Mona touched her face as if she were
Mona soothed the woman to sleep and came out of the guest room with the medicine bowl.She looked at the two paper stars in her hand. The woman had forced her to take them and told her to keep them as a keepsake.Mona smiled and decided to take them to let her children play with them.For the next few days, Mona stayed at home to care for the children while accompanying the woman. Meanwhile, she also prepared for the divorce.According to Thaddeus, he was going on a business trip for a week and would be back tomorrow. The divorce was now on the agenda.Mona secretly clenched her fists at the thought of the next battle to come....The next day, Sophie came to Fontaine Residence with the studio team and brought a set of the most advanced live-streaming equipment.The staff placed the camera facing the artificial lake in the garden. The picture that appeared on the lens was beautiful. The artificial lake shimmered from the sun, and under the hanging willow was an easel. Mona was
[Our live stream is really quiet. There’s no sound at all.][My brothers, what are we waiting for? Let’s blow up the screen with donations!]The colorful gifts on the screen were endless that even the people watching were confused.There were genuine die-hard fans who praised Mona to the high heavens, but Sophie was more concerned about the number of new fans.The team had not started trying to boost the live stream traffic, but the rise in new fans was exceptional![What’s going on? Why is no one talking?][Is my phone broken?]At first, the new fans who joined were confused and wanted to leave, but they were attracted when they saw Mona’s back and profile.[That woman must be CGI, right? She’s so pretty.][Look at the account name. She’s the heroine of that recent hit TV series.][Oh my god! She’s so beautiful. She’s the Athena of my heart. It’s a shame she’s not in costume.][Shh. Everyone, be quiet. Don’t bother me. I’m trying to watch the beauty paint.]If not for the
Before his assistant told him about the broadcast, he had no idea the woman was so popular. From the time he got off the plane, went to his car, and arrived at the entrance of Fontaine Residence, her fans had increased by tens of thousands.Thaddeus maintained an expressionless face and watched the live stream with a wait-and-see attitude. It was only when Mona stood up and stretched, did the man’s eyes instantly turn gloomy and harsh.Without even thinking, he gave an order. “Cut off the power and signal at the Fontaine residential area.”His assistant hurriedly did as he was told and called the Fontaine Residence butler, immediately cutting off the signal and power in the area.It took only three minutes from when Thaddeus gave the order to the sudden interruption of the live stream.“Sophie, the live stream was cut off!” The staff working in front of the equipment was the first to notice the problem. He turned around to look at Sophie, somewhat panicked.Another staff speciali
Mona was helpless and jumped down, falling into Thaddeus’ hands. The man firmly embraced her as if he were disciplining a child.“Why is an adult like you climbing trees?”Mona bit her lip and retorted, “I was trying to save a cat.”Thaddeus snorted coldly and looked down at the woman in his arms. When he thought of how she twisted her waist and stretched her back during the live stream, he stared at her red lips and felt his throat become dry and thirsty.The man’s gaze made Mona feel very uncomfortable. She twisted her body and struggled to jump down from his arms.Thaddeus’s expression was cold, but his deep eyes tinged with a teasing smile.It had only been a few days without her, but this woman was suddenly interesting to him. She usually bared her teeth and claws at him, but now she was acting shy.Mona saw the crooked smile on the man’s face and flushed in anger. She stepped on his foot fiercely and yelled, “You hoodlum!”After scolding him, she turned and ran toward the
