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 did for her mother just now.

He was tall, handsome, and dressed classy and fashionably. He seemed like a perfect match for her mother.

Monique had yet to snap out of it after being carried into her own car. She seemed confused.

“Drive,” Henry growled.

Monique finally snapped out of it after hearing Henry’s growl. She put her seatbelt on and drove.

“Are you dumb? Why didn’t you wait in the car?” Henry scoffed. Unknowingly, he was angry about her waiting for him outside the car.

“You’re… You’re the one who asked me to stay where I was!” Monique replied.

“Did you really have to do exactly as I said? Are you dumb?” Henry lifted his brow. An expression—which was foreign to Henry himself—appeared on his face.

Henry’s phone rang. Secretary Jane had sent over Louise’s location, and it was on the way to her home but through a different route than usual. Based on women’s magical sixth sense, Monique was sure that Louise was in trouble.

Monique sped toward the location. Although the car was moving fast, it felt pretty stable to be in it—it was not a bumpy ride at all. She drove the taxi like a high-end sports car, and the speed that she was driving her car at did not match her slender appearance at all. Who could associate such fierceness in a slender woman?

Henry’s lips curved upward unconsciously.

The car arrived at a remote suburb, and it was quite a distance away from Louise’s house. Moreover, there were barely any cars in the suburbs at night and the entire street was eerily quiet. Monique was more anxious than ever. ‘Louise, please be okay.’

Meanwhile, Louise was losing hope in the woods nearby. She tried her best to fight back but she was no match for this strong and brutal man on her.

Her clothes were torn apart and the middle-aged man kissed her with a stinking mouth. She was about to be raped.

She continued struggling. She was losing her strength and about to lose all hope.

Monique’s car continued to move forward before arriving near a yellow taxi. As she drove forward, she heard some noise coming from the woods.

Monique stopped the car. The noise that the tyres’ friction produced pierced through the quiet suburb.

Monique opened the door. She was about to rush into the woods when a huge figure appeared behind her and pulled her hand back. He glared at Monique and scoffed, “Wait in the car with the child, I’ll go in myself.”

He was more than what was needed to stop the rapist.

Henry was 1.9 meters tall and he had a fit body. Monique looked up to his handsome face—it seemed like he was protecting her. Was this an illusion?

He just bullied her yesterday…

Little Nomi’s huge, dark eyes were glowing. Her ‘father’ was glowing like a god! The way he protected her mother was so boyfriend-like and he looked extremely handsome doing that.

“I’ll save my own employee, it’s not a scene for you with your child in tow,” Henry scoffed after seeing Monique’s look of slight admiration for him. His tone was monotonous.

However, he felt proud in his heart and he walked into the woods quickly.

Louise thought she was having an illusion when she heard a noise. Was someone there? It was her last hope when she pushed the man off her with all her might, got up, and ran toward the road.

The man did not expect her to have enough strength to push him off and chased after her.

Louise’s skin turned red and she was not completely dressed. She ran with all her might before seeing a tall, classy man heading toward her. She ran faster.

“Help…!” she shouted as she pant.

Before she could finish her sentence, she heard him say, “Wait in the blue taxi outside.” His voice was cold and arrogant.

Meanwhile, the middle-aged man caught up. “Don’t you butt into my business!”

Louise did not dare to slow down. She ran toward the blue car the man had mentioned.

“Bastard, are you asking for death!” To Henry, this man was seeking death for messing with someone on his turf. Henry kicked him in anger.

“Please forgive me, please forgive me, I’ll never do it again.” The man was being beaten up so brutally that he was shivering.

Monique saw Louise running toward her from afar. She got out and helped Louise into the car. Louise fell on Monique’s body. She was shivering.

“Ah…” She cried hysterically upon seeing Monique.

She was panting hard. Her legs were weak from the terror she had just experienced.

“Okay, okay…” Monique comforted her while patting her shoulder.

Henry finally walked out after making sure that the man could no longer get up from the ground.

Louise was done crying but she could not help but continue sobbing.

“Are you okay, are you okay?” Monique asked with concern.

“Thank you, I’m alright, thankfully you arrived in time,” Louise said while sobbing.

“Didn’t you ask me to pick you up? Why did you get into his car?”

“I was too tired today. I was exhausted and hungry. He saw me standing there and asked where I was heading to, and he said he was going to drive me home for free since it was on the way for him. He claimed that his ride was a legitimate one and told me not to worry about it. I thought he was an honest man so I got in, but…” Louise started sobbing again.

“Why didn’t you pick up the phone when I called…”

“I didn’t hear it since it was in my bag. But when I wanted to call someone after realizing something was wrong, he snatched my bag away from me.”

Louise looked over at Monique and hugged her. “Monique, thank you so much for today. Who knows what would’ve happened to me if it wasn’t for you.”

Henry was standing behind them at this moment. He was wearing a tailored shirt with a business vest that fit him perfectly. His charming eyes flashed with an eagle-like brutality, and his nose looked perfectly sculpted. His slightly pursed lips were incredibly good-looking as well.

Monique patted her shoulder and said, “You should thank him, he saved you.”

It was him! It was the man from just now!

Louise had been crying in terror on Monique’s body and forgot to thank the man who saved her. Her eyes widened in shock when she turned around to find this handsome, tall, and classy man.

Was that not their very own, handsome, and flirty CEO!

“Mr. CEO!” Louise exclaimed.

    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

    How could there be a man like this, how could there be an *sshole like this! Cindy had been waiting at the lift’s entrance. She was surprised that Monique was not chased out. Her face that was covered with exquisite makeup became more and more hideous by the second. The jealousy in her heart could almost drown Monique. She eventually saw Monique leave the CEO’s office. Monique looked like a zombie as she walked out lifelessly. Cindy’s expression turned passionate in seconds. She came over and held Monique asking, “Monique, why are you only out now? I’ve been waiting for you for some time.” “What were you talking about?” Cindy asked. No one would have guessed that this endearing look came from the same person who accused Monique just before. Monique was frustrated and she needed to vent. “He was collecting his debt,” Monique mumbled. Yes, she must have owed him something in her past life; he was here to collect the debt in this life. ‘Collecting debt?’ Cindy thought to h

    “Fate brought us together outside troubled times, yet destiny brought us to love in the hardest of times…”It was a call from Henry. Monique picked up the call helplessly; she could no longer be angry at him. She was truly afraid of him calling the cops on her and she was willing to slave for him as long as she could stay with Little Nomi. Henry wanted her to move to his villa today to be on call 24/7. Monique agreed; she had no choice but to do so. “Little Nomi, we have to move to that person’s house,” Monique said to her daughter after hanging up the phone. Little Nomi agreed obediently. They packed light and went downstairs. The chauffeur was already waiting downstairs when they arrived. She bowed before Monique and Little Nomi, opened the door for them, and put their luggage into the trunk. The chauffeur stopped at a fenceless luxury villa halfway up the mountain. The villa was extremely grand; a river was shuttled beside it, and it looked as gorgeous as a magnificent pa

    Little Nomi went ahead and played with the toys with Monique’s permission once Mrs. Lee left. Monique unpacked their luggage and truth be told, there was nothing more than clothes. Although it was a great environment, Monique had goosebumps all over thinking about having to spend so much time with that *sshole from now on. She looked over to the man’s bedroom door with curiosity and fear. His door was closed, she did not know if he was in. Meanwhile, Henry was looking at a report with a serious face on the other side of the door. His gaze was a little grim, but there was a hint of excitement on the corner of his lips. The DNA report stated that he was Little Nomi’s father. Monique was the woman he had been looking for for the past five years. No wonder he could fall asleep in her car twice. Little Nomi was his daughter after all and he could not believe that he was the father to such a cute and adorable kid. It was a magical and fortunate feeling; no wonder he liked Lit

    Henry looked at Little Nomi before placing some food in her bowl. His lips curved into a beautiful grin as he said, “Little Nomi, eat this.” Little Nomi smiled at Henry with her big, lively eyes and started eating. The food tasted so good, it was so much better than what she had in restaurants. They seemed so loving with each other that it looked like they were father and daughter for years. Monique was shocked. Was this the same man who threatened her in the morning! Nonetheless, she decided to speak her mind since he seemed happy right now. “Can I continue taking orders from Stormchase whenever you’re not using the car?” Monique said to Henry with a smile. She had an eager look on her face as she added, “I want to earn more money to pay my debt.” “Sure,” Henry replied with a smile. Monique was pleasantly stunned. She blinked in disbelief. Was that it? That was easy! She had been anxious about this the entire day. This man was pretty decent when he acted normally. Not

    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

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.
