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.
“I’ll get lost, I’ll get lost, I’ll get lost, I’ll get lost right away…” Cindy was terrified. The man’s fit body emitted a frosty aura. His dark eyes seemed like two cold, bottomless pools that could swallow people whole, leaving no residue. Cindy could not think. She was so terrified that she fell on the ground. She wanted to get lost, but her limbs were so weak that she could not move. The CEO was a little too scary. He had been telling her to get lost every time he saw her. “Mandy, get in here,” Henry growled. Mandy heard him immediately. She was standing by the door and did not dare to go in. The CEO was mad.“Drag this b*tch out.” His voice was deep, magnetic, and cold. “Bunch of idiots, letting just about anyone in.” “Okay.” Mandy did not dare to cause any delays. She called for two security guards to drag Cindy out of there. She was afraid that she might become collateral damage if she wasted another second. Henry had estimated that it was about time Monique del
Monique felt like she wanted to die from being struck by lightning. “I don’t want to,” Monique said without hesitation. She wanted nothing more than getting as far as possible from this bastard, let alone being his driver. No one but this woman dared to speak to Henry this way. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity to anyone else! There was a sinister smile on his dark expression. “Oh, how do you plan on paying me back then, with your body?” He took a step forward as he spoke and grabbed her by her waist. He pinned her down on his desk, put his face near hers, and licked her on her lips. Monique widened her eyes in shock. She wanted to slap his face in reflex. This shameless bastard. Henry grabbed her thin wrist, raised his brow, and his smile became more sinister than ever. “Let’s talk about compensation after I’m done with my meal. I’ll collect some interest first.” “Henry Moore!” Monique yelled in anger. He went overboard this time. “Yes, here.” Henry stared
