“You don’t have to pretend!” Monique scoffed. Her eyes stared at him with disgust, “You don’t need to find excuses for your appalling actions. It was all an act to make me your lover.”Just an act?!She thought that it had been his ploy to have gotten her. Was he out of his mind then? He rushed all the way from the city when he heard that she went on a blind date. He never left her side when she had a fever and took care of her from day to night, changed the towels on her forehead, measured her temperature regularly, and accompanied her when she had lost her appetite. How dare she say that he had just been acting?Who did she think she was? What kind of lover would have received so much attention?Who the hell did she think she was? If she had not been Angel's mother, he would not have bothered to have looked at her.Henry curled his lips and sneered, “You think too highly of yourself. Lover? You think I want you as my lover with the figure you have?”Henry continued to mock her,
When he thought that she would have finally been his after writing down the amount, he continued to stare at her with raised brows.Monique sat down elegantly and placed the checkbook on the table. She held the pen with her slender fingers, neatly trimmed nails and wrote the numbers with her pretty handwriting.She lifted her head after she had finished writing the check. The sun rays shone on her bare face without makeup, having given it a natural glow like a flawless gem.She saw him staring at her possessively, “Aren’t you curious how much I wrote?”He curled his lips and said, “I’ve told you that you can write any amount you want!”Monique smiled faintly, her gaze towards him darkened, “You asked what I wanted just now. I’ll give you an answer now.”“Uhm, go on.” The anger in his eyes dissipated.If she had been willing to be with him, he could have given her as much money as she wanted.Monique had already expected that he would have ridiculed her.She threw the check at
"Don't touch me." Henry tried to have reached out to Monique but she had been a terrified little creature as she pushed him aside.Once again, she sat back on the chair, trying to have reminded herself of what she had desired, the thing that she had always longed for.She wanted to have provided Angel with a secured life and a home where she belonged.All this while, that had been the only thing that she had desired and nothing else."What should I do to leave this place!" Monique slowly regained her coolness.Henry had no longer been angry after he saw how desperately this woman wanted to have escaped.Even though she had forgotten about what had happened in the past, perhaps she should have been able to have recalled what had happened last night.There was a storm that dwelled in Henry's eyes as his lips curled and he sneered, "Don't forget, you're now my woman. Don't ever think of leaving this place without my permission."Monique felt a pinch in her heart. She had gone star
Agreeing to be Henry's woman would have granted him permission to kiss her whenever he felt like it.Henry felt pleased to have seen Monique being so obedient.Henry moved his lips away from hers and said, "Kiss me!""Didn't we just kiss?" Said Monique in a loud voice."I'm now your boyfriend, so you need to learn to be more spontaneous." Said Henry as though it had meant to have been that way.Monique turned a blind eye to him, she knew she had to accept this reality.However, she thought to herself that she should have gotten something for herself in return."It's only going to last for two years right?" Said Monique helplessly, "Previously we had agreed on two years and when the two years are up, you'll let me go."The two years that they had agreed upon previously had been a two-year contract of being a chauffeur.However, they had been a couple already, perhaps this had all been part of Henry's plan.Henry had not been very happy about it yet he still wanted to have pres
Henry caught up to Monique and looked at her limping as a result of him having tortured her last night.He reached out to Monique's waist with those strong arms of his and grabbed her tightly, "Five years ago, you're here as well, am I right?"Monique was then instantly in the embrace of Henry, her face buried into his chest as she heard Henry's strong and loud heartbeat.Monique stood there frozen, she could not believe what Henry had just said, "What?"Five years ago? Here?!Monique soon came to her senses and realized that it could have been that Henry had sent someone to thoroughly investigate her past.Therefore, he purposely did it in the same setting, furthermore in the same room as well."You must have been disappointed with such a lowly woman." Said Monique sarcastically.Henry had been through Monique's sarcastic comment instantly.This proved that she had not recalled anything at all. Anyway, she was now his girlfriend, and Henry planned to reveal everything to her
Monique, who was imagined Henry being in an auction, made her reveal a smile subconsciously."They just said that you're seducing me and that your skills in bed are top-notch, yet you're so delighted." Henry said with his deep and hoarse voice."They're the ones who are blind. It is as plain as the sky that a gorgeous and cute lady like me is being devastated by a big bad wolf like yourself." Monique said it calmly.Monique realized she had become even more thick-skinned after she had accepted the fact that she had not been able to have escaped being Henry's girlfriend."I never expected you to be so carefree, it would be better if you’re also relaxing in bed." Henry looked straight into Monique's eyes with a serious expression along with a smile on his face.In a split second, Monique's face went scarlet. She could not believe that she had been able to have understood Henry's hidden messages immediately.Could it be that they had been connected through a telepathy after having s
"Once again you're trying to seduce me! Since you're hungry, then let me feed you." Henry said with his low and attractive voice.Monique's eyes twitched as she replied in a nervous tone, "It's not that…it's not that…"Monique had been flustered being in a confined area as she lifted her gaze. Henry's captivating eyes looked at Monique. His charmed looks had a smile that made him look appealing.Perhaps Monique had gone insane after being bullied by Henry innumerable times.This time, she had the urge to have pounced and feasted on him as she closed her eyes tightly.The way Monique bit on her lower lip and eyes shut had just been so seductive. Henry had no longer suppressed himself as he grabbed on to her neck and kissed her lips. Monique's ear went bright red and she gasped for air.A loud growling sound had been heard from Monique's stomach, she had been famished.Monique had been woken up from her fantasy as she deliberately fled away. Face blushed, lips swollen, Monique gas
"You're not allowed to stare at other men!" Henry raised his gaze to look at Shaun who had been on the other side of the window, with a cold voice as he emitted an emperor-like aura.Monique's face twitched as she stuck her tongue out at Henry. “I will keep staring, what could you do about it?”"If you continue staring, I will have Shaun sent to the Middle East!" Henry snorted.Shaun happened to hear what Henry had just said when he approached the car and that made him tremble and nearly get down on his knees.Could it be that he took too long to have purchased the food and let Monique starve?‘Young Master Moore, I just don't get it, I wanted to give you two more personal time together.'Shaun had been shaking as he opened the car door. Instantly, he felt the intense murderous aura emitted from Henry's gaze, having made Shaun's legs wobbled. He quickly handed the breakfast over to Monique with his trembling hands, "Mrs. Xander, this is your breakfast. There had been quite a crow
