“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 delivered the coffee, but he ended up seeing a disgusting woman with heavy makeup instead. It was repulsive.

The woman said she was coming over to return the top today. Did she break her promise again?

If she dared to do so, she must be ready for the consequences she would face!

Monique did not know what was going on while being on the first floor. She chatted with Louise for a while before realizing that Cindy went upstairs without her. She did not know what Cindy was rushing for.

Monique had no choice but to carry the dozen coffee cups herself. It would not be nice if she was accused of under-delivering the order.

“Are you seeking death? How could you sneak into the CEO’s office?” Mandy was really pissed. The coming days would be excruciating for them all if the CEO was maddened.

Monique found a group of secretaries and security guards talking to each other the moment she stepped out of the lift. They all looked pissed but Monique did not know who they were angry at.

At this moment, Cindy recovered slightly after getting away from Henry. Her eye caught Monique who had just arrived. She squinted and her eyes were immediately watery. She pointed toward the lift and began crying. “It’s her, she set me up, she asked me to send the coffee in to the CEO. Since there was no one at the front desk, I walked in right away, I didn’t mean to.”

“Sobs…” her fragile look was convincing at the moment. The security guards nearly bought it.

Everyone looked in the direction of Cindy’s finger and saw Monique standing there in confusion.

What? When did she tell Cindy to come up here? She was being blamed by someone who was rushing to seduce a man but ended up getting kicked out.

Monique was stunned for a moment and pursed her lips. Although she thought that no one would believe her, she still defended herself instinctively saying, “I didn’t do it.”

“Miss Xander, I believe you.” Mandy smiled at Monique courteously after spotting her. She bowed before Monique and said respectfully, “The CEO is inside, please go ahead.”

This woman might be their saving grace. The CEO had been waiting for her for some time and he ordered them to let this woman in since yesterday. This was a first.

Monique felt flattered all of a sudden. This woman believed her right away without asking any questions. Monique felt warmth in her heart.

“Thank you.” Monique smiled thankfully. Her clear, almond-shaped eyes looked like the purest diamonds. They were clean and innocent.

Monique put the coffee down on the front desk and walked in with the top.

Who was this woman? It was incomprehensible that the CEO asked for someone who dressed this averagely. Everyone was stunned and in awe.

The crowd eventually dispersed itself and Cindy was left sitting on the floor in a mess. Her tears ruined her makeup and she looked uglier than ever. Her look was a joke at the moment.

What she still could not accept was that the toilet-cleaning woman actually managed to seduce a rich man.

Cindy was chased out of there every time she went in. It could have been anyone else, why was it Monique—a toilet-cleaning single mother?

Cindy could not believe her eyes as she watched Monique walk into the CEO’s office. She thought that Monique would be chased out as well.

Monique began feeling anxious as she walked into Henry’s office, she thought about how she was forcefully kissed the day before. Last night, he threatened that ‘the game’ would be continued if she did not come over to return the top. It was terrifying!

She walked in slowly. Henry was not at his desk, so Monique wanted to leave the top there before sneaking out. A grand and classy office like this made her worry about a potential danger.

“What are you doing being so sneaky?” His voice was lazy and magnetic while frosty.

Monique was frightened and turned around in shock. Henry was standing behind her, and his tall and fit body looked as scary as a devil.

His cool face seemed as arrogant as a warlord amidst the sunlight.

Monique was a little scared but since she returned his top, she no longer owed him anything. There would never be any conflicts between them again. She gathered her courage, lifted her head, and approached him.

“Are you a ghost? Your footsteps are so light. I’m here to return your top.” Monique smiled at the man with a dark expression in embarrassment.

Her face was beautiful, and her voice was crispy and clear; they were like a waterfall in the sun that washed away Henry’s anger.

Seeing Monique’s attempt at being strong when she was actually afraid, Henry was tempted to mess with her again. “Oh, the top is here, did you ruin it?”

Monique knew that this was going to happen. What a brat! She continued smiling confidently despite cursing him in her mind.

“Definitely not, I washed it thoroughly.” Monique was confident because she checked the top multiple times. She washed it for over an hour yesterday, so it was definitely clean.

“Hand washed for over an hour? This is real silk and it’s really soft, you can’t wash it by hand. Look, it’s now out of shape because of you. You have to pay for it,” Henry said slowly. He picked it up and dangled it in front of Monique. His voice was still nonchalant and magnetic.

The sexy voice—capable of impregnating someone—sounded like the devil in Monique’s ears.

Looking at the out-of-shape top, she felt the urge to curse like she never did before.

Motherf*cker!

This was a trap and she fell for it! She did not want to get herself into this either but he forced her to change into his clothes.

“What, you don’t want to pay for it?” He leaned in, and his warm breath swept across her face. It was as if he was saying that he would take her there and then if she said no.

Monique was pissed seeing how arrogant he was. If it was not for the fact that he helped her yesterday, she would have been lashing out by now.

“You… You… How expensive could this be, I’ll pay!” Monique took a step back and gritted her teeth while leaning on the desk. It was just a top, she’ll pay for it!

The top did go out of shape in her hands. Monique was heartbroken; it must cost at least a few hundred bucks for such a good top. It was motherf*cking painful for her. How unlucky of her!

She made a mental note to avoid this bastard at all costs after this.

Nonetheless, she owned up to her mistake. She was heartbroken thinking about how she held herself back from having dessert, but she had to pay for this top now. Meanwhile, Henry’s lips curved and grinned mysteriously.

Monique had chills looking at that sinister smile.

“Mandy, bring the proof and receipt for the top this woman wore the day before,” Henry called the front desk.

Mandy brought the receipt in moments later before leaving in a bow.

Henry did not even bother looking at it. He threw it at Monique in a handsome and elegant manner.

Monique’s hand shivered as she read the receipt... She could not believe her eyes! She shut her eyes and opened them again to count the string of zeros on the receipt. The top that she assumed was ordinary and decently priced was actually made by Emma, the famous designer hailed as a genius internationally. It was one in a million as well; it cost over 500 thousand bucks per piece!

Over 500 thousand bucks for a top!

Monique was terrified. It was an unimaginable figure for her; she might not even get to make that much money her whole life.

“When are you paying me back?” Henry looked at Monique with interest. Her pale face was turning green and white.

“I can’t afford this, I don’t have the money, there’s no use of you forcing me to do so.” Monique was freaking out, but she still seemed like she was putting up a brave front.

“I know you don’t have the money.” Henry curved his lips watching the helpless woman in front of him. She no longer looked like she was trying to be strong; she seemed like a depleted ball standing there helplessly. Henry felt the urge to protect her.

“I’ll give you a chance to pay me back by being my full-time driver,” Henry said nonchalantly, but his tone made it seem like he was a king bestowing a gift on her.

    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

    ‘What are you embarrassed about? We even had a kid…’“Can you do something else rather than threaten me all the time?” Monique felt extremely wronged. She was mad about getting bullied by him all the time.“I can sleep with all sorts of women. Do you think that I’m interested in you because of your body?”Henry’s tone was arrogant. His jet black eyes deepened slightly and he looked at her from top to toe in clear distaste.He had a point. He could have a bunch of women running into his arms whenever he wanted with his money and his looks.“Why are you clinging onto me then?” Monique grumbled.“I have serious insomnia and I can’t sleep. It seems like I can only sleep well when you’re by my side,” Henry stated, his cold and teasing tone sounded like a melodious lullaby.“I’ve been having the problem for many years yet I fell asleep in your car twice. Don’t you think that this is something?” Henry reminded nonchalantly.‘That dumb woman!’ Henry thought to himself.“I’ll sleep her

    Henry was shoved away unprepared. He frowned and his brows furrowed even more than before. He scooched over to Monique, his eyes filled with an intimidating coldness.He had to punish the dumb woman!He held her waist and forced a kiss on her before she could react. She was instantly overwhelmed by his intense passion.“Hmm…” Monique wanted to retreat but she had no space, she was backed against the footboard.She wanted to resist but he clasped both her hands before she could struggle for long and slid his tongue to hers. He stirred his tender tongue in her mouth haughtily and sucked in her sweet, sweet breath.“... Let me go…” She could hardly breathe. She glared at the arrogant man in front of her with her cheeks flushed red.He rarely lost control as he always had very good self-constraint. However, Monique kept surprising him. He reacted strongly to the kiss and wanted to force himself on her and rub himself over her.Still, he released her when she was almost suffocated.

    They saw Henry’s gentle and pleasing side and thought how could it be possible that this man was the same as the Young Master Moore, Chairman Moore?‘Could it be that the girl really is the chairman’s daughter?’The chairman who was assumed to be uninterested in women brought a five-year-old daughter back out of nowhere. How shocking.Mrs. Lee was more composed compared to the others. Indeed, the little girl looked a little similar to the chairman when he was young. The more she looked, the more resemblance she saw between them. She might have been his daughter.Monique sighed softly as she stared at Little Nomi. Her daughter was an obedient girl but she refused to listen to her regarding this matter.Monique already reminded her the night before not to call Henry her daddy after this. However, it seemed like she forgot after she woke up, she was even getting close to him.All children are naive. Perhaps it was Little Nomi’s dream to have a father and a mother. They were like a f

    "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?"

    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.
