Henry’s eyes were dark like the night. All that was in his mind was to make Monique his own. Did he really want to rape a lady? How hilarious was that!He stopped at the end. It was as if Monique heard him say, ‘This is a punishment for her hooking up with another man!’‘What? Is this only a punishment?’Henry looked at the fatigued woman and realized how cruel he was. Her body was full of his bite marks, symbolizing his claim over his territory. Henry took a breath to calm his aggression down. He tidied up her clothes and covered her in a blanket. She flinched anxiously as her hand touched his neck. Henry leaned on the bed and fixed his dark eyes on her. After a long time, he opened up one corner of the blanket, carefully laid down, reached out his hand, and hugged her in his arms. Then, he closed his eyes. The next morning, the day dawned crisp and clear. The sun poured through the windows. Monique slept in Henry’s arm peacefully for a night, and he slept very sound th
Monique’s phone suddenly rang. Her ringtone brought her back from the painful memory. Her little hand took the phone beside her bed, she picked up the phone and said weakly, “Hello.”“Monique, didn’t you say you’d be coming home today?” A mid-age man’s loving voice sounded on the phone. It was her uncle. She told him the day before that she would go back. She was frustrated when she woke up and forgot about it. “Yes, uncle. I’ll be heading back in a while,” Monique said, sounding relaxed. Her uncle’s call warmed her heart. He still remembers her. Maybe the world was not that terrible after all.Moreover, she had the cute, little Angel. Monique kept encouraging herself after she hung up the phone. She went downstairs after washing up. Angel had already started eating and Mrs. Lawson was serving her at the side. She took the food and put it in Angel’s bowl. Angel’s little baby-fat face had recently turned chubbier; she was like a small meat bun and looked so cute. Her b
“Ah!” Monique shouted. Her beautiful brows furrowed as she felt pain from the burn.“What happened, mommy?” Angel raised her head, looking concerned. She looked at half-bitten pierogi Monique spitted out, shook her head, and sighed, “Mommy, be careful when you eat. I’m not going to snatch your food.”Mrs. Lawson laughed out loud. Monique looked abashed, as Mrs. Lawson said, “That’s right. Eat slowly. There’s more in the steamer.”Monique agreed softly. Her face turned red and thought to herself, ‘How can I finish so many of these. I’m not a pig.’“Mommy, are we really going back to uncle’s house?” asked Angel. Her little eyes were filled with confusion. Why did they have to go back when that aunt and the other lady did not seem to like her. She did not wish to go back. “Um. Uncle called and asked me to go back and stay home for a few days,” Monique said softly, “How did you know? I haven’t told you.”“Daddy told me,” Angel said. “He even asked Mrs. Lawson to prepare a lot of stu
Siobhan knew Zephyrus asked Monique to come home and was very unhappy. “Why did you ask that bastard to come here? Haven’t we helped them enough? Her biological parents didn’t even want to bother with her. Yet here you are, treating her better than your own daughter.”“Speak softer. Monique rarely comes home. Can’t you just stop talking for a while,” condemned Zephyrus. “Who’s your biological daughter? You haven’t even helped Yvonne find a job, yet you’re thinking about that bastard all day long. Does she have a hook on your soul?” Siobhan was angry. She was at her wits’ end. As Siobhan talked about Yvonne, he started becoming angry at her. “Look at how you’ve spoiled her. She has been switching jobs. At one time she said she was too tired, other times she said you don’t agree with the job. If this goes on, there would be no company wanting to take her in.” Zephyrus threw the newspaper in his hand angrily. Zephyrus’s face looked bad. He warned her sternly while looking at her.
Yvonne whispered into Siobhan’s ear, then both of them laughed hysterically. There was some movement at the door. A sweet and gentle female voice sounded, “Angel, be careful of the stairs.”Both Siobhan and her daughter looked toward the door together. A slender figure appeared in front of them. Her small face, slender and long eyebrows, pretty nose, and fair skin looked refreshing and beautiful.She was wearing a white V-neck t-shirt and slim trousers, which seemed to fit her very well. The high-top sneakers made her look more slender and tall.The simple white t-shirt suited her very well. She looked like a girl who was still in college.Her innocent and beautiful figure offended one of the women’s eyes. “Monique, how shameless of you to be able to come back here.” The tone was cold and full of disgust. She did not even care to pretend.Monique looked at the two women in front of her with cold eyes and asked, “I’m not the one who’s shameless.”“It’s you, Yvonne. You drugg
Monique passed Angel to her uncle. She walked over and smiled at Carl. “Uncle Carl, let me help you with these.”“Ms. Xander, you’re being courteous. You don’t have to. These aren’t that heavy. Just let me know where you want to place them and I’ll bring them over to you.” Uncle Carl looked at Monique gratefully. The woman in front of him had porcelain white skin. Her short hair as thick as seaweed neatly scattered on her face, and a sweet smile on her pure and sweet face looked exceptionally lovely.She obviously had an unusual relationship with the Young Master yet she had no arrogance at all. He was very impressed. As she was about to reach out her hand and take it over from him, Uncle Carl insisted on bringing these in on his own so she had no choice but to just guide him.“Uncle Carl, just leave it here.” Monique guided Uncle Carl into the living room, pointed at somewhere close to the couch, and said. There were some health supplements and well-known snacks, some of whic
“Hey, what are you looking at? Don’t learn from her. What’s so good about an old man,” Siobhan said in disdain. “We don’t even know how that bastard bewitched a rich man, even though she has a child.”Siobhan thought of something out of sudden. “Is the snack you mentioned really that well-known? Wouldn’t it be really tasty then? Let’s go and take a look.”She dragged Yvonne into the house after she spoke. As Uncle Carl walked out just now, Zephyrus’s face turned from one full of dotting to one of gloom. He looked at Angel in his arms and said, “Angel, I’ve bought some fruits. They’re in the kitchen. Can you bring them to me?”“Sure.” Angel raised her delicate face and smiled happily. Then she turned around and walked toward the kitchen. As he watched Angel walk further and further away, Zephyrus turned his head around, looking blue. “Where did you get this money? How would you have money to buy so many things?” ‘Did you do something shameless?’However, the last sentence was st
Zephyrus frowned at his daughter. “You keep your mouth shut!”He did not want Monique to feel unwelcome. The woman ran away from home and stayed away for five years after the pregnancy incident. He did not want to lose his niece again. What if she left and never came back?Zephyrus would have disappointed his late father.“Daddy!” Yvonne shrieked. Tears were threatening to flow as she stomped her foot angrily.Her father was being biased as usual. Yvonne hated that she was always reprimanded because of Monique.Her fingers clenched tightly as she dwelled on her thoughts. Tears of anger and hate streamed down her cheeks.Siobhan could not stand watching her daughter upset. She turned to her husband and said, “What Yvonne said is the truth. If she wasn’t selling her body, how could she afford these?”The luxury items were tempting to Siobhan but she decided to side with her own daughter.The frown on Zephyrus’s forehead deepened. He believed it was just a misunderstanding among t
"Monique, don't cry..." Su Chen's blood kept gushing out from the wound, and he felt colder and colder.He even felt difficult to raise his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of Monique's eyes."Brother, stop talking. The ambulance will come soon!" Monique reached out her hands to press the wound for him, trying to slow down the bleeding.But the blood kept flowing out from between her fingers...Su Chen shook his head, indicating for Monique to stop wasting her energy."Monique... you really... ahem, don't you remember me?" Su Chen was struggling to even say a word."What?" Monique didn't understand what he meant."I saw you... when you were very young... Have you forgotten? You promised to be... my bride..."Su Chen's words made Monique frown. She didn't remember making such an agreement with someone.Bai Bingbing was shocked by Su Chen's words.It turned out that the little girl Su Chen had mentioned to her was Monique!That was the only time Su Chen had mentioned hi
Monique, whom the two men had been longing for, was found by Bai Bingbing."Miss. Bai, why are you here?"Monique had never seen her since Gu Linbei's wedding.Today, Bai Bingbing made Monique feel very strange.Bai Bingbing, who appeared in front of others, always had delicate makeup and was talking and laughing.However, today's Bai Bingbing had a plain face, and she had not even taken care of her hair.For a moment, she was worried that Bai Bingbing would come to her because of something."I have something to talk to Mrs. Moore alone. I wonder if it's convenient for you?"Bai Bingbing's words made Monique instinctively miss her because of Su Chen.However, Henry had repeatedly warned her not to be with Su Chen alone."Is it possible that he has something to do with Su Chen?"Monique thought about it and made an appointment with Bai Bingbing at a crowded cafe.She also sent a message to Henry.By the time Henry received the message, Su Chen had already arrived at Su Ente
"Monique didn't come." Henry spoke as he could read Su Chen's mind without hesitation.Su Chen didn't care and looked away calmly.He looked at Su Zhenxing and the man beside him.He was really Su Zhenxing's partner, the secretary of Su Chen's biological father, David."When did David return?" Su Chen's tone was gentle and normal, as if he was really chatting with them."I just arrived last night." David answered Su Chen, but her eyes were full of worry."Chen, did you really do this?" Su Zhenxing looked at Su Chen and asked sadly."Yes!" Su Chen did not know what Su Zhenxing was asking.But no matter what they were, they had something to do with him.From the time he was adopted by Su Chen, to the time he returned to his country and met Monique, to the time he met Henry.Even the kidnapping of Monique abroad was arranged by him alone.Therefore, no matter what Su Zhenxing was asking about, Su Chen would agree.Su Zhenxing had a lot to say to Su Chen, but he didn't know whe
This was not the worst result.Just as Bai Bingbing was cleaning up the mess and trying to minimize their losses to the minimum.Henry suddenly launched a general attack. Several companies outside Su Chen's company provinces were suppressed by Marriott International at the same time.Su Chen had long known that these companies under his name had been discovered by Henry.If that was all, Su Chen wouldn't be worried.However, the person under Su Chen's hand had just called.Su Chen's overseas businesses had been maliciously sold before the stock market was closed.Now that the stock market had been closed, it was impossible for them to buy it immediately.During this period of closing, their stock price would continue to decline.If they couldn't buy those shares as soon as possible before the trading tomorrow.They could only be controlled by others.Su Chen didn't even need to think that who did this to him.He didn't expect Henry to do like this.This was Su Chen's final
Gu Linbei couldn't sense the mixed feelings in Gu Shaohuan's heart.He handed over the results of his efforts in the morning to the Hui family."From today on, the Gu family has nothing to do with me anymore. I have nothing to do with the Gu family anymore."At this moment, Gu Linbei was secretly glad that he was not a good-for-nothing rich second generation in order to prove to his family with Henry.He had secretly saved up his personal savings so that he could speak so confidently in front of Gu Shaohuan at this moment.Gu Shaohuan thought that Gu Linbei would suffer a lot after leaving the Gu family.This kind of revenge just happened to calm down.He didn't expect Gu Linbei to appear in front of him in such a powerful state.Gu Shaohuan didn't want to admit this difference, so he snorted coldly. "You have today's results because of the Gu family. What's there to be proud of now?"Gu Linbei had expected this, as if he had already guessed that Gu Shaohuan would say that."
After Gu Linbei got the computer, he turned off the page of the Gu Group internal web.This was also the reason why Gu Shaohuan no longer insisted.Gu Linbei sent a message, and soon a document came from the other side.After calling Gu Shaohuan over, he opened the document.It was the three companies that had been acquired by the Gu family in the morning and other shares."You're the one who's dealing with the Gu family?!"Gu Shaohuan's first reaction was that Gu Linbei was the one dealing with Gu Group, not that Gu Linbei wanted to help the Gu family.In the face of Gu Shaohuan's reaction, Gu Linbei's first feeling was not anger or disappointment, but relief.Fortunately, this man was not his father.Gu Linbei didn't explain. Instead, he called in all the members of Gu Shao Huan's team."Mr. Gu, he is the mysterious buyer who helped us stabilize the stock market!"He was so excited that he almost called Gu Linbei the son of the Gu family.However, both Gu Shaohuan and Gu
Gu Linbei did not care what Gu Zihang was thinking.He directly pulled her out of Henry's office.Henry looked at Monique’s photos on his desk and ignored them.He was thinking about the reason why Su Chen had attacked the Gu family first...."Zihang, how is it? Have you done it?"Gu Shaohuan had been paying close attention to the curve on the computer.He didn't notice the secretary's expression when she came in and said that Gu Zihang wanted to say something when he came back.When Gu Shaohuan finished asking, there was no response.He raised his head and saw Gu Linbei coming back with Gu Zihang."What are you doing here?" Gu Shaohuan was furious when he saw the son that the Gu family had raised for 20 years.How proud Gu Linbei had been in the past, how much he hated him now.Gu Linbei didn't care about Gu Shaohuan's tone at all. He sat down on the sofa as usual.He was so angry that his nose was crooked."The Gu family is in big trouble, and they can't hold on any lo
Gu Linbei and Su Chen were just so happy, but they made w Gu Shaohuan and Gu Zihang feel so worried.They didn't even have time for lunch and had been busy buying.However, the funds that could be used were quickly finished, so they had no choice but to stop.It wasn't that the Gu family didn't have enough money.The wealth accumulated by the Gu family in the past few lifetimes would not be unable to afford these stocks.Not to mention that the stock loss was so much now.However, most of the Gu family's funds were flowing in the project.They could not be put into use as they wanted.Gu Shaohuan had even used up all of his savings, but it was still useless.It was too late to transfer funds now...Was it really useless now?Just as Gu Shaohuan and his nephew were in despair.The Gu Group found that the decline of the Gu Group's stock gradually stopped."Mr. Gu, look, Mr. Gu! This man seems to be helping the company. The stock doesn’t drop anymore."The leader of the team
Only in this way could he have a better grasp of the initiative.But what could Gu Shaohuan do if he didn't listen to him?The Gu family didn’t have any business in the past two years. Of course, Gu Shaohuan, who needed a large amount of money, would release more shares to gather funds.However, they didn't expect Su Chen to be the one who bought a large number of Gu's stocks and even gave them financial support.Even if they found out, they would not doubt anything.After all, the Su Group had been developing rapidly in City B these years.Early this morning, Su Chen began to sell all the Gu Group stocks at all costs.The Gu Group's stock dropped sharply.At this rate, the Gu family would be forced to leave the city before it was over.Moreover, the other companies of the Gu family were affected.By the time Gu Shaohuan found out about this, three companies under his control had already changed owners.At this time, Gu Shaohuan were anxious, and he was anxiously discussing
