“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
Thaddeus held Mona’s slender waist and pulled her into his arms. He looked at Dylan with hostility. “She’s pregnant, so she can’t dance.” Dylan was startled for a while. He looked at Mona’s flat stomach. Given how slim and slender her figure was, he could not tell at all. Mona struggled to break free from Thaddeus. She disliked being in such close contact with him, so she deliberately drew distance from him. Thaddeus sensed her rejection. His face instantly turned dark, and he gave off a cold aura with strong resentment and gloom. He was furious. Seeing as the situation was turning bad, Linda hurried over to mediate things. “Suzy, Mr. Fontaine cares for you so much that he came to pick you up. You should go back with him.” Mona pulled Linda’s hand and hid behind her. “No, let’s go back together.” Thaddeus flew into a rage when he saw Mona avoid him. “Mona, are you leaving or not?” he warned her with his tone. Mona shivered and mouthed the word “no”. Thaddeus too
Thaddeus hugged Mona and kissed her for a long time. He only let go when he felt that she found it hard to gasp for breath. Afterward, he grasped her hair with his fingers and pressed his forehead against hers while looking ruthlessly at her. “Do you know you have a man waiting for you?” Mona closed her eyes to avoid his burning gaze. She almost cried out loud. “Thaddeus, speak nicely if you have something to say. Don’t treat me like this.” “Well then, how did you treat me?” Thaddeus softened his tone and lifted his hand to wipe away the tears at the corners of her eyes. “Don’t you know how you tortured me?” “I didn’t, I didn’t.” Mona shook her head and choked as she continued, “I didn’t torture you. It was you who did something wrong.” Thaddeus was the one who was entangled with another woman, whereas she simply refused to do what she did not want. She did not want to communicate with him, and she did not want to have physical contact with him. What was her fault? Mona fel
Mona did not sleep well the whole night. Thaddeus wrapped his arm around her. Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, she was afraid that she would wake him up by moving a lot, so she lay there quietly and did not move. She did not feel comfortable as she kept thinking about Thaddeus hugging another woman like that. As such, she was tormented by the emotions while she stared at the chandelier above without blinking. Mona could not blame anyone for the painful emotions and could only swallow them herself. Thaddeus slept until dawn. When he woke up and did not see Mona, he rubbed his messy hair and got off the bed. “Suzy?” In the empty villa, all that answered him were echoes and the sound of raging waves from not far away. A feeling of loss spread in Thaddeus’ heart. He froze in place for a moment and recalled Mona sobbing in his arms. Despite that, he could not make her happy. There were just too many things he could not say or let her know… …After leaving Gold Coast, Mona
Millie clapped happily and circled around Mona. “Did you come around?” Thaddeus’ voice was heard coming from the door. He held his arms and leaned against the door with a casual look on his face. Mona looked at him and ignored him. Neither had she come around,= nor would she let this go. She only decided to go home for the sake of the kids. Thaddeus took out his phone and called the driver to pick them up. Mona went into Linda’s house, packed her suitcase, and conveniently cleaned up the house. She left a note before she left. Thaddeus took her suitcase and took the kids downstairs. Mona locked the door and was about to leave when she suddenly saw a figure flashing past and disappearing into the storage room from the corner of her eye. Her heart skipped a bit, and she thought about the incident of the scary doll being placed on the doorstep. “Who is it?” The storage room was a small room without a lock. It was especially used to pile up old discarded items. There was
Mona could not dodge in time, so the woman managed to slap her face. The woman was just bluffing to vent her anger, so she did not use much force. As such, the slap on Mona’s face did not hurt, but unfortunately, Thaddeus saw it as he rushed up. How could he allow his woman to be bullied like that? He walked over and pulled Mona behind him to protect her, and then he returned a loud slap on the woman’s face. The woman was swayed by the blow, and the bag on her arm fell to the ground. The gift box in the bag rolled onto the ground as well. Mona looked at the woman’s face and then at Thaddeus. She was shocked by the fact that he would hit a woman. “You… How dare you hit me?! This is violence. I’m calling the police now to reason out with you!” The woman was furious. She pointed at Thaddeus while her hand trembled. At this point, her emotions were out of control as she was embarrassed and lost her dignity. It would be fine if it was Mona who slapped her, but it was a man who
Linda responded coldly, “Whatever. Stop bothering me.” “Don’t think I don’t know. You have my husband’s contact, right? Do you still want to sleep with him?!” As the woman spoke, she pounced over like a shrew and scratched Linda’s face until it bled. Mona wanted to go up to help but was pulled by Thaddeus to a far side. “You have a little one in your tummy. Don’t add to the mess.” Mona stood to the side and watched the messy scene in front of her. Linda was a professional taekwondo instructor. She grabbed the woman’s hair and gave her a beating. Linda pressed the woman to the ground and gritted her teeth as she glared at the woman fiercely. “You’d better take your trash with you and get out. I’ll smash your head if you come and disturb me again!” The woman’s face was pressed to the ground, so much so that it was almost deformed by Linda. She cried in a hoarse voice, “Do you think I want to? You destroyed my marriage and seduced my husband to sleep with you. I saw it with
Mrs. Jenkins’ cries became louder. Several neighbors opened their doors to come out and watch the fun. Mona was worried the neighbors would gossip about it without knowing what was going on, which would affect Linda’s reputation. She walked over to help Mrs. Jenkins up. “Mrs. Jenkins, you should get up first. Let’s not disturb the neighbors and head inside to talk.” “Suzy, you should take the kids home first.” Linda considered that Bobby and Millie were still waiting in the car. She did not want this to affect the harmony of Mona’s family. “Okay. Call me if anything happens.” Mona waved at Linda. She believed Linda was capable of solving this matter and did not need others to interfere. Mona turned to look at Mrs. Jenkins before she left. Mrs. Jenkins was also a poor woman hurt by love. Mona hoped that both she and Mrs. Jenkins could soon get over the betrayal they experienced. With that, Mona and Thaddeus went into the elevator. Thaddeus noticed her look of disappointmen
