“Me?” Monique Xander pointed at herself with her fair, slender index finger and asked Mandy Jane doubtfully.‘Me? There must be some kind of mistake!’Mandy nodded with certainty but the look she gave Monique was odd.Everyone there was curious. Some were guessing that she would not come out alive before getting a severe reprimand!Monique was a little nervous. She walked into the office fully alert to see a black-and-white themed space filled with an extraordinary luxurious leather couch and a solid refined wood desk. Even the few artworks by court painters on the wall were highlighting his exceptional identity. The furniture was simple yet adequately extravagant.Henry Moore was seated on a black couch beside a wide French window with his back facing her. He looked like a divine being from the back due to his inborn elegance. His pose was effortlessly sophisticated and graceful.His side profile reminded Monique of a towering mountain in the panoramic scenery, complemented with
“Were you peeping? You pervert!!!” Monique Xander glared angrily.Henry Moore was stunned for a moment when he heard the words coming out of her mouth. He stared at her in amusement instead of getting angry. It was hilarious to him!Who did she think he was? He was the apathetic and ruthless chairman of Moore Group!As the leading chairman in B City, he had respectable status and a position of eminence. As the prime among diamond bachelors, he could have any woman he desired, the line of women fawning over him could even reach space.Him peeping her? Henry almost burst into laughter. Her accusations were extraordinary!“Hmm, what did I peep? What do you have that is worth peeping?” Henry was amused, his lips curved into a wicked smile.‘He really spied on me!!!’‘He must have seen everything!’ She was somewhat relieved that she had not taken off her undergarments. It was a horrific moment for the innocent Monique who never dated a guy.Oh, he even questioned her body!Monique’
Monique Xander fled downstairs like a crazy woman with her hair in a mess. Out of breath, she held her chest as she gasped for air.Henry Moore watched her run all the way down from the 23rd floor and he almost died laughing. He was never the laughy type but he could not help it when he saw her gasping for air.The employees outside the general manager’s office were in shock. Was the girl who ran with her hair in a mess wearing the chairman’s clothes?They always thought that their chairman was uninterested in women!Monique was unable to suppress her shock when she was on the way back to the café. She quivered internally when she remembered that she had to return his clothes the next day.Those people in the secretary’s office were giving her an astonished look as if she was a ghost when she was fleeing the scene. How would she be able to face them the next day?Monique returned to the café, still lost in her thoughts.Cindy Lee was there. She stared at Monique as she returned,
An idea struck him. He grinned and said, “We’re working overtime today. Call Mansion Coffee and order each of them a cup of coffee, get them to send it over right away.” He became frustrated with himself after saying that; he was doing all of this for a woman. “Okay, sir,” Jane said respectfully before leaving. Seeing how the CEO’s expression changed from a dark one to excitement, she was left confused. Could it be that he was into that ordinary employee? It was impossible to guess what the CEO was thinking! However, the overtime was necessary as the CEO said so. There were cries everywhere once the announcement was made. “Ring, ring, ring…” Mansion Coffee received a delivery order from Marriott International just before they were about to close. “Monique, deliver the coffee,” Cindy shouted at her arrogantly. Since the manager, Sacha, had already left the café, everyone had to give in to Cindy’s demands recently as she had a close rapport with Sacha. Jane was already chan
Monique went home from the café and cooked dinner for Little Nomi. After the meal, she went out to work as a taxi driver with Little Nomi. Ever since she drove Louise from the city back to the suburbs the other day, she tried her best to get as many customers as possible from the city to the suburbs since she was on night shift anyway. She felt happy and fulfilled to be able to help people. “Fate brought us together outside the troubled times…” Monique’s phone rang as she headed toward the city.“Mom, your phone.” Little Nomi grabbed the earpiece with her little chubby hand before passing it to her mother. Her beautiful face was flushed, and her clear eyes were shining. “Hello, Monique speaking,” Monique put the earpiece on and picked up the call. “Monique, I’m Louise, I’ve just gotten off from working overtime, are you free to pick me up?” Louise asked as she walked outside. “Of course, I’m on the way to the city, wait for me.” Monique had a sweet smile on her face. Of
Monique’s brain went blank from worrying about Louise. Seeing that Henry was approaching her, she recalled what had happened yesterday and became so terrified that she tried to push him away. However, Henry pulled her into an embrace. As he looked down, his beautiful eyes were captivating, and his deep voice was extremely attractive. His voice was so attractive that it could impregnate one’s ears. It was blatant flirting to Monique’s ears! ‘In your dreams!’ Monique’s eyes twitched. She thought she was crazy to be asking for his help. Nonetheless, she had to be courteous while asking for a favor. She fought the feeling of nausea and said through gritted teeth, “Let’s look for Louise.” It was an inappropriate time to mess with her right now and Henry decided to carry her before putting her in the driver’s seat. He then opened the door to get into the backseat. Little Nomi turned around and smiled at the man in the backseat. She gave him 120 likes in her heart seeing what he
How could it be Mr. CEO! Louise could not believe her eyes. She was so shocked that she did not even realize that the cops had arrived at the scene. “The cops are here. You’re fine now, you’re fine now,” Monique comforted Louise as she helped her up and patted her shoulder. Louise’s eyes were still widened and she had chills all over her body. The man in front of her had a body and manner more attractive than top male models as his handsome features were prominent on his frosty look. This elegant, luxurious, and royal-like man would be none other than the Moore Group’s CEO—Henry Moore.“Bring that disgusting thing away.” He glared at the officers arrogantly, and his voice was cold yet magnetic. He had an inherently royal aura to him. His temperament pierced through the officers’ hearts. It was terrifying. ‘God damn it, how dare this guy mess with Young Master Moore’s employees? He will be sentenced to jail for sure!’“Yes… Yes… We’ll take him away. We’ll never let him out and
”Uh… I was busy so I forgot about it…” Monique was stunned. She froze as if she had her acupuncture points pressed. Was he really angry? “Did you really forget about it, or were you not planning to return them?” Henry said while raising his brow. He glared at her with an arrogant look. He seemed like a beautiful, elegant leopard. He might seem nonchalant, but the aura coming off him was still rather threatening. What a petty man... He was really angry about it after all. The warmth Monique felt from him disappeared instantly. “Of course I was planning to return it…” ‘Who wants to keep your clothes!’ Monique pronounced her words but did not finish her sentence. She did not dare to piss him off as Little Nomi was still in the car. Who knew what he would do if he was angry? “Daddy, why don’t you come over to our house to take it? Mommy actually forgot about it!” Little Nomi thought that Daddy had misunderstood her mother. She tried her best to explain on her mother’s behalf.
"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
