Chapter 17

“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’s face flushed red instantly. She raised her arm to give him a slap.

Henry caught her arm and moved closer to her.

“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll do something to you?” There was an indescribable charm in his indifferent tone.

They were very close to each other. His warm breath was ticklish and heated her face up. Embarrassed and annoyed from the humiliation, Monique put her other arm in front of her to push him away.

‘Is he really going to…do something to me…? We’re alone in this room... I’m in his territory…’

As the thought flashed by Monique’s mind, she pushed the man in front of her instinctively with force to flee.

Henry expected Monique’s actions. He gripped her body with another arm and took her into his arms as if he was teasing her.

His face was exactly one finger away from hers. The warmth in his breath was flowing through the tip of her nose.

Since Monique had never been in close contact with men before, her pale face flushed crimson instantly and her heart pounded aggressively.

“Let, let me go!” said Monique angrily as she struggled to free her fists and legs frantically. She did not expect the boring, quiet man to be this devious at all!

His actions did not match his gorgeous and flawless appearance at all! He was a beast in human form!

Monique struggled with even more force but her effort was like a tickle to him.

“Seducing me already?” Henry’s lips were slightly lifted as a hint of evil flashed past his eyes.

He secured both her arms with one arm and held her waist with another to get her even closer to him.

Who was the one seducing here? What a narcissist! He was clearly the one who was clinging onto her!

Noticing his odd stare, Monique looked down and realized that her bosom was almost fully exposed from the loose tee.

“You pervert!” said Monique angrily.

Her tee would not have drooped if she had not tried to struggle free from his arms.

She wanted to question his ancestors for his behavior as she looked at his expressive eyes.

Henry stared at the stubborn woman’s face which was crimson with either anger or embarrassment. She looked charming with her messy short hair and pinkish peach-like lips.

He put his lips on hers with precision and devoured her sweetness with his tongue aggressively.

Monique could not even breathe properly as she was swept away by his wild breathing.

For some reason, kissing her felt familiar.

Monique was going crazy. She could not believe that she met such an arrogant and unreasonable bad person.

“Let me go, b*stard!” shouted Monique weakly.

“You pervert!”

“Beast!”

“Let me go…” She cried out like a child suddenly.

Her cheeks were flushed from his kiss, her chest rose and fell violently. She was trembling all over and she hated this sensation.

The night from five years ago and her suffering since then appeared in her mind abruptly. The pain from getting chased out of her uncle’s house and the pain from raising a kid on her own were pouring out of her eyes. She looked up at the ceiling to hold her tears, but one teardrop rolled onto her cheeks.

Henry stopped and went into a trance because he had never lost his cool like this before. He hated how he lost control, he did not even want the woman.

He recovered to check on her to see the teardrop falling from the corner of her eye to her cheek, before dropping onto his chest. It caused an unusual ripple in his calm mind. He felt an odd emotion.

He felt pity for her.

Noticing that he was distracted, Monique sunk her teeth into him hard as a way to release her pain. She was extremely mad. The man in front of her would have been minced meat already if she could kill with her eyes.

Henry recovered from the distraction and pushed her away because of the pain. His eyes were icy and his pity for her dispersed.

Finally free from his constraint, Monique wanted to flee. She could not bear to stay for another second.

Henry blocked her with an arm and looked at her without any emotion.

“Remember to return the clothes. They are expensive.” Henry raised a brow and reminded her with a wicked smile.

Monique was extremely furious. She had the impulse to take off the clothes and return to him right away but she thought about the risk that he might be peeping again. ‘What a pervert! Scumbag!’ Monique cursed internally.

“Are you cursing me? Aren’t you worried that I’ll make a complaint?” said Henry unhurriedly with a neutral tone.

‘He’s threatening to complain??? This man is unbelievable!’ He deserved her curses for his dirty deeds!

Monique’s face was twisting with fury. She was taken advantage of although she was only there for a delivery. How dare this disgusting man talk about making a complaint about her? How sick!

However, a wise man does not fight when the odds are against him. She would lose her job if he really made a complaint and that would be giving Cindy Lee exactly what she wanted. She then thought about Little Nomi.

She softened up.

“Of course. I’ll return it tomorrow.” Monique bit her lips, her furious face turned into a fawning smile.

She was extremely vexed! She had to hide her hands in her pockets and hold her phone to stop herself from beating him up.

Henry knew what Monique was thinking and raised a brow but he was not going to complain. He would benefit from her trying to flatter him. He extended his slender fingers to grab his phone and made a call.

“Fate brought us together outside the troubled times, yet destiny brought us to love in the hardest times…” Monique’s phone rang.

“Save the number.” Henry’s tone was neutral yet indisputable.

Monique had no intention of provoking him further as she was worried that he might make a complaint. She quirked up the corners of her lips, “Your name…”

There was daze in Henry’s eyes before they turned gloomier. How could she not know who he was? He facepalmed internally.

“Henry Moore.” He spat these words out with a cold tone.

Monique typed Pervert Moore into her phone agilely without letting him see and kept her phone in her pocket swiftly.

“I’m… I’m leaving then…” She ran before he could respond as if she was getting chased by a monster.

“What an interesting woman!” Henry smirked.

Women always fawned over him, yet Monique was trying to avoid him!

A spark flashed past his eyes as he looked at the running figure.

He recalled the indescribable youthfulness he felt from her as he hugged her. The fear and toughness in her bright and teary eyes made her look exceptionally innocent and pure under the gentle lights.

It was hard to imagine that she was a mistress and had a daughter!

He was puzzled and thought that there must be a mistake. He could hardly link her, a pure-looking woman, with other promiscuous women.
