When they exited Organization D, it was past 10 at night.“The flight ticket I booked is at 11 p.m. You could still manage it if you go to the airport right now. I’ll pack your things and deliver it back to your home.”Henry replied with a nod. Shaun hurriedly drove the car over and Henry got in. Although his expression was cold, his heart jumped with joy. The woman who always rejected him actually agreed the day before.Ever since Mandy’s call, he had been in the office. He had not seen the mother and daughter duo for two and a half days. His heart was already back at Moore Manor. Angel should be asleep at this hour. Would that woman be waiting for him?Henry did not rest, he just stared out the window at passing scenery. Shaun drove fast and managed to arrive at the airport on time. After watching Henry board the plane, he called Mandy and told her, “Mr. Moore is onboard now. Get to the airport to fetch him when he arrives. He hasn’t eaten anything all day, and refuses to eat air
“Really? Daddy said he would come back today, but he hasn’t.” Angel pouted, her eyes sad.Monique comforted her with a gentle voice. “Daddy is coming home, and he is on the way now. Angel should go to sleep now so Daddy can see a beautiful, rested Angel tomorrow morning.”“Okay.” Angel wanted to see Daddy at her best, so she shut her eyes and fell asleep.Monique looked at her chubby Angel; she had a fair complexion with rosy cheeks, pink cherry lips, and her downturned eyebrows. She reached out and gently rubbed Angel’s eyebrows. Her eyebrows slowly relaxed under Monique’s gentle touch.Monique was unsure if it was the fact that she did not want to lie to Angel, but she hoped Angel could really see Henry when she woke up the next morning. She was a little eager for him to come home tonight. She laid beside Angel in bed and sat for a long moment. Two miniature Moniques fought inside her heart.‘Monique, Henry saved you and Angel. It’s okay to have an intimate relationship with him
She even washed her face and used the skincare products Henry put on the vanity that she rarely touched. She chose a leave-on facial mask and applied it to her face.Her heart was thumping because she was nervous. She looked at the mirror and tried her best to smile sweetly, but it looked awkward no matter how she tried. She walked out from the bathroom, and just as she was about to leave the room, she went back to the bathroom again. She changed into another set of sportier pajamas. She thought wearing a nightdress was too deliberate, as if she really had cleaned up to wait for him.After a moment of thought, she changed back into the black dress she wore that morning. She washed off the cream on her face afterward. Even though it was gone, she actually felt her face looked softer in an instant. She finally walked out from her room. It was getting late, she wondered if Henry would be back tonight.Henry had just got off the plane, and Mandy was already waiting for him at the airpor
Monique’s face was already red, but turned even redder. She faintly nodded. “Yes.”When he saw Monique, he knew she was waiting for her, but he wanted to hear the words from her lips. He could not describe the happiness in his heart. Happiness flowed through his veins, reaching every corner of his body. He felt great. He raised a slender leg, with every intention to walk toward Monique and carry her to bed.When she saw the passion in Henry’s eyes, she had the urge to rush back to her own room. Just then, Mandy’s voice came from the door, “Mr. Moore, is Mrs. Lawson asleep yet?”Mandy’s pleasant voice was irritating in Henry’s ear. Then, another annoying voice replied, “I’m here.”Mrs. Lawson heard the sound of a car engine, so she got out of bed to check.Mandy was standing behind Henry, she did not notice the cold expression in his eyes and his gentle features hardening. Mandy looked at Mrs. Lawson. “Ma’am, Mr. Moore hasn’t eaten anything all day, please prepare something for him
Her voice was light like a leaf drifting into his heart, creating waves.She was just standing right in front of him, yet he had forgotten about his urge to carry her into the room. He only gave her a simple reply. “Okay.”Monique turned and walked to the kitchen. Henry suddenly remembered something and his mouth lifted into a grin. It was fine, he would have more stamina later after he ate. When she turned around, she saw the grin Henry had on his face. Henry quickly hid the smile when she turned to look at him.She looked at his expression and thought it a little funny. Why was he hiding his smile?She grinned at Henry. “You should smile more often. You look good when you do.”“Are you crazy? When do I look bad?” Henry was suddenly blushing. He went upstairs after that.Monique almost burst out laughing to see Henry blushed. Was he embarrassed?Wait… She turned around earlier because she wanted to ask what he wanted to eat, but he had already gone upstairs.She decided to coo
“Oh.” Monique did not know what to say. She looked at the droplet that fell from his hair, flowing down his gorgeous face, then she said, “The noodles are still too hot, and your hair is still wet. Let me help you blow dry it. The noodles will be at the right temperature when we’re done.”Henry was surprised. She was a little different today--a little too different. She no longer distanced herself from him. She was even more thoughtful and considerate.Monique was panicked when he did not reply, her heart becoming anxious. She nervously looked around to evade his gaze, but she had no idea how she ended up looking into his eyes. They looked at each other. The air in the room suddenly froze, like there was something between them.Her heart thumped like a rabbit again, jumping all around. She even found it a little difficult to breathe. She pursed her lips. “If you’re hungry, you should eat first!”There was a strangeness in his heart. The woman had thick and dark hair curtaining her
When she thought about the things she had to do with him later, her face was flustered and red. Her mind was buzzing and she could not think properly. She forced a smile and said, “Enjoy your meal. I’ll go and get a towel to dry your hair.”She stood up and ran off to get a towel. Henry’s smile broadened as he watched her, thinking her as cute as a young girl. What an interesting woman.Monique went to the bathroom and found a towel. She could feel her hands shaking; she could like she was prey about to be eaten by a predator.She scolded herself for how useless she was being. This was not her first time. She took a deep breath and walked out.When Henry saw how composed she was, a trace of evil glinted in his grin.“Do you want some?” he asked.Her heart was still racing, and she thought he was really interesting. He did not ask her if she wanted some when he was eating earlier, yet he asked just as he was about to finish. Was it really appropriate to bully her like that?“I’m
Monique took it as an agreement. She looked at Henry carefully and said, “I took over a proposal in the company yesterday. However, I was not sure how to complete it so I stayed in the office but did not finish it.”As Monique finished speaking, she hesitated about the continuing of the sentence. Henry’s handsome silhouette was light. It seemed emotionless. “Is that all?” Henry parted his lips, he did not seem to care much. She had just started working the day before. It was normal that she did not know how to draft a proposal. What was she worrying about?Monique was in fact very anxious. Henry was an unpredictable person. He could take her shopping or to have amazing food when he was in a good mood and would even use a helicopter to send her a meal.However, if he was unhappy, he might throw her into the water and even choke her to death. Furthermore, damaging a computer was certainly not a good deed. She could only take a bet because she would not be able to conceal any f
"Monique, don't cry..." Su Chen's blood kept gushing out from the wound, and he felt colder and colder.He even felt difficult to raise his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of Monique's eyes."Brother, stop talking. The ambulance will come soon!" Monique reached out her hands to press the wound for him, trying to slow down the bleeding.But the blood kept flowing out from between her fingers...Su Chen shook his head, indicating for Monique to stop wasting her energy."Monique... you really... ahem, don't you remember me?" Su Chen was struggling to even say a word."What?" Monique didn't understand what he meant."I saw you... when you were very young... Have you forgotten? You promised to be... my bride..."Su Chen's words made Monique frown. She didn't remember making such an agreement with someone.Bai Bingbing was shocked by Su Chen's words.It turned out that the little girl Su Chen had mentioned to her was Monique!That was the only time Su Chen had mentioned hi
Monique, whom the two men had been longing for, was found by Bai Bingbing."Miss. Bai, why are you here?"Monique had never seen her since Gu Linbei's wedding.Today, Bai Bingbing made Monique feel very strange.Bai Bingbing, who appeared in front of others, always had delicate makeup and was talking and laughing.However, today's Bai Bingbing had a plain face, and she had not even taken care of her hair.For a moment, she was worried that Bai Bingbing would come to her because of something."I have something to talk to Mrs. Moore alone. I wonder if it's convenient for you?"Bai Bingbing's words made Monique instinctively miss her because of Su Chen.However, Henry had repeatedly warned her not to be with Su Chen alone."Is it possible that he has something to do with Su Chen?"Monique thought about it and made an appointment with Bai Bingbing at a crowded cafe.She also sent a message to Henry.By the time Henry received the message, Su Chen had already arrived at Su Ente
"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?" Su Zhenxing looked at Su Chen and asked sadly."Yes!" Su Chen did not know what Su Zhenxing was asking.But no matter what they were, they had something to do with him.From the time he was adopted by Su Chen, to the time he returned to his country and met Monique, to the time he met Henry.Even the kidnapping of Monique abroad was arranged by him alone.Therefore, no matter what Su Zhenxing was asking about, Su Chen would agree.Su Zhenxing had a lot to say to Su Chen, but he didn't know whe
This was not the worst result.Just as Bai Bingbing was cleaning up the mess and trying to minimize their losses to the minimum.Henry suddenly launched a general attack. Several companies outside Su Chen's company provinces were suppressed by Marriott International at the same time.Su Chen had long known that these companies under his name had been discovered by Henry.If that was all, Su Chen wouldn't be worried.However, the person under Su Chen's hand had just called.Su Chen's overseas businesses had been maliciously sold before the stock market was closed.Now that the stock market had been closed, it was impossible for them to buy it immediately.During this period of closing, their stock price would continue to decline.If they couldn't buy those shares as soon as possible before the trading tomorrow.They could only be controlled by others.Su Chen didn't even need to think that who did this to him.He didn't expect Henry to do like this.This was Su Chen's final
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
Gu Linbei did not care what Gu Zihang was thinking.He directly pulled her out of Henry's office.Henry looked at Monique’s photos on his desk and ignored them.He was thinking about the reason why Su Chen had attacked the Gu family first...."Zihang, how is it? 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. He sat down on the sofa as usual.He was so angry that his nose was crooked."The Gu family is in big trouble, and they can't hold on any lo
Gu Linbei and Su Chen were just so happy, but they made w Gu Shaohuan and Gu Zihang feel so worried.They didn't even have time for lunch and had been busy buying.However, the funds that could be used were quickly finished, so they had no choice but to stop.It wasn't that the Gu family didn't have enough money.The wealth accumulated by the Gu family in the past few lifetimes would not be unable to afford these stocks.Not to mention that the stock loss was so much now.However, most of the Gu family's funds were flowing in the project.They could not be put into use as they wanted.Gu Shaohuan had even used up all of his savings, but it was still useless.It was too late to transfer funds now...Was it really useless now?Just as Gu Shaohuan and his nephew were in despair.The Gu Group found that the decline of the Gu Group's stock gradually stopped."Mr. Gu, look, Mr. Gu! This man seems to be helping the company. The stock doesn’t drop anymore."The leader of the team
Only in this way could he have a better grasp of the initiative.But what could Gu Shaohuan do if he didn't listen to him?The Gu family didn’t have any business in the past two years. Of course, Gu Shaohuan, who needed a large amount of money, would release more shares to gather funds.However, they didn't expect Su Chen to be the one who bought a large number of Gu's stocks and even gave them financial support.Even if they found out, they would not doubt anything.After all, the Su Group had been developing rapidly in City B these years.Early this morning, Su Chen began to sell all the Gu Group stocks at all costs.The Gu Group's stock dropped sharply.At this rate, the Gu family would be forced to leave the city before it was over.Moreover, the other companies of the Gu family were affected.By the time Gu Shaohuan found out about this, three companies under his control had already changed owners.At this time, Gu Shaohuan were anxious, and he was anxiously discussing
