Mona suddenly paused when she heard Linda say that.It seemed like Linda was right. When she caught Thaddeus with another woman, her heart felt extremely insecure. Furthermore, Thaddeus’ evasive attitude reduced her sense of security to nothing, so she had to think of leaving to prove her existence to him.However, her departure also added to her courage of not being afraid of losing.Linda was also a woman, so she could naturally understand Mona’s thoughts.“In fact, Mr. Fontaine really cares about you. Look, even when he got angry so many times, he’s been willing to step down and coax you. Now, he even brought the children and chased after you here. I think his performance deserves a passing grade.”“Is that all?” Mona curled her lips. No, this was not enough. It was far from enough.What he and Ginny did really crossed the line. If she forgave his actions just because he was good to her now, she would be letting down her own principles.She had to make him truly hurt for once
Linda recalled the relationship between the two people. “But last time, I saw that Mr. Fontaine was really partial to you. It was like he liked you so much he couldn’t see anyone else. He had no feelings for Ginny at all. How did they suddenly get entangled?”In short, Linda found it very strange.Mona was a little confused. “What a man says only represents his attitude and thoughts at the moment. Just because he was devoted to me then doesn’t mean that he won’t choose to betray our marriage when he encounters something new.”Linda let out a long sigh. “It was really wise of me not to fall into the river of love.”Mona laughed. “Haha, don’t say that. Women still need to fall in love.”The two walked and chatted in the garden, then went to the supermarket to buy groceries.“Let’s stock up more. Mr. Fontaine and your two kids are here. Maybe they’ll come over to have dinner. Judging by Mr. Fontaine’s noble appearance, it’s clear he’s used to people serving him. He probably doesn’t
The man gripped the steering wheel and drove his fancy car on the road.Linda and the man’s luxury car drove into the neighborhood one after the other. Linda pulled Mona to the side and hid, watching Thaddeus come out of the car and carry his stuff upstairs.“Wow, he really did move here. Suzy, are you satisfied now? The great Mr. Fontaine was willing to stoop down to live in a shabby place like this because of you.”“So what?”Mona was unmoved. “If he doesn’t break it off with that woman and give me a satisfactory answer, I won’t forgive him even if he kneels down in front of me.”“Oh my, you’re really fierce.”The two women waited downstairs before heading up.Mona saw Linda sneak around as if afraid that Thaddeus would discover that they knew he moved over. She said bluntly, “Don’t be so cautious. Shouldn’t Thaddeus be the one avoiding us?”Linda was suddenly struck by an epiphany.“You’re right. The one who should be afraid of being discovered shouldn’t be us but Thaddeus!
“Daddy, Mommy is going out to have fun tonight. I want to go too,” Millie said to Thaddeus. Millie walked over and tugged at the hem of Thaddeus’ shirt. She also heard Linda, her godmother, say she would bring her mommy to an outing where there were many handsome men. Thaddeus was somewhat mad. “Your mommy is fooling around, and so are you? That kind of place isn’t for decent people!” He imagined the scene of half-naked muscular men dancing and stripping on the stage while crazy women pounced on them to touch them. Thaddeus was determined to blacklist Linda from Mona’s world. She could be a good influence, and yet she was pulling Mona to the dark side. He simply could not tolerate it! Thaddeus put his hands on his waist and paced back and forth in the room. He felt anxious. “Bobby, quickly think of a way to stop your mom from going out tonight.” Bobbly was eating a lollipop and playing Sudoku on his tablet with his legs crossed at the moment. “Daddy, Mommy has control o
“So, when I call you, it has to be for something, and it has to be important?” Thaddeus asked Mona. “Not really. You can call anytime. I’ll call you back when I see it,” Mona answered. “What are you doing now?” “Getting ready to go out.” “Go out? That’s pretty good. Go ahead.” Thaddeus sounded casual about it. After saying that, he hung up the phone. “What’s the matter? He won’t let you go out?” Linda walked over and helped Mona straighten her dress. “Is Mr. Fontaine mad? Did he threaten and bribe you on the phone? Did he cry and beg you not to abandon him to go have fun by yourself?” “How could it be? Thaddeus is a calm man. He was indifferent about it, so I guess he doesn’t care at all. We’re overthinking. Let’s not add so much drama for ourselves.” Mona was more or less disappointed. Thaddeus knew she was going out to have fun and would likely interact with the opposite sex, but he did not care. How generous was he? Nonetheless, if he did not care about it, so be i
“I happened to drive by here and heard from Linda that you’re also going to the social tonight, so I came to try my luck and see if I’d meet you. It seems that I’m in luck today and should probably buy a lottery ticket. I might even win first prize,” Dylan teased. “Mr. Parker, you’re funny.” Mona pursed her lips and smiled. “Then, we’ll trouble you to send us there.” Dylan looked at Mona and was intoxicated by her enchanting smile. He became dazed as he stared at her. Mona felt uncomfortable being stared at like that, so she walked to the car first. Dylan came back to his senses and was slow to realize that it was rude of him to do that. He scratched his head embarrassedly. Linda covered her mouth and snorted a laugh. She patted Dylan’s shoulder and said, “Let’s go, Mr. Parker.” Dylan hurriedly walked over and opened the car door for Mona. He even placed his hand at the top of the door to protect her head. He was so careful as if she was a precious treasure. Mona thanked
Linda laughed out loud. “Sure, sure. Introduce more handsome young men to me. Old ones don’t suit me anymore.” “Linda, be nice.” Mona looked back at Linda and reminded her not to speak so boldly. Linda did not care. She was responsible for the atmosphere at the moment, after all. Otherwise, if only Mona and Dylan were present, given Dylan’s character, the whole journey would be silent. Soon, they arrived at where the social was being held. It was a quiet bar that Dylan had booked out exclusively so that only those who were invited to the party could enter. Therefore, it was not noisy. Mona felt comfortable inside. “What do you want to drink?” “I’ll have a glass of wine, and she’ll have a glass of warm water,” Linda ordered for Mona. Mona was pregnant with a baby, and she tended to get cold, so she could not go all out as she wished. “Are you only having warm water?” Dylan acted extra gentlemanly in front of Mona, trying to leave a good impression in front of her. “Mm.”
“Isn’t that true? You have fun in secret, so people don’t know, whereas I openly have fun,” Mona said to Thaddeus. “Cut the crap. I’ll go find you. Send me the address.” “I don’t have it.” Mona looked up and saw Dylan walking toward her. “Suzy, I’m saving the first dance for you. See you on the dance floor,” Dylan exclaimed to Mona while she was still on the phone. “Mona, don’t you dare!” Thaddeus heard what Dylan said and yelled. Mona’s hand trembled, and she hung up the phone. Dylan seemed to have also heard that it was a man on the other end of the phone, but he did not seem to mind and reached out to Mona. She looked at Dylan’s hand and took a step back. “Mr. Parker, I’m truly sorry. I’ve kept something from you.” “I know. You’re married to Thaddeus Fontaine from the Fontaine Group.” Dylan also just learned about it. A friend here happened to work at the Fontaine Group and told him about it in passing. “So, I can’t dance with you.” Mona decisively refused hi
