“Nomi, I’m your daddy, don’t listen to her.” Henry was pissed, the warmth in his eyes cooled down. His husky voice had a domineering aura that could not be refuted.He kissed Little Nomi’s cheek unconsciously to claim her as his possession.Little Nomi’s mood turned better now, but Monique held her forehead with her palm. Had this man gone mad again? He was acting like a spoilt child. How could he be her father?At this moment, his face was as black as coal, but when he looked into her eyes, he returned to his usual cold expression.“You…” No, Monique wanted to say something, but when she saw her upset daughter, and the murderous look in Henry’s eyes, she decided to keep quiet.“Foolish woman, I said I am, therefore, I am!” Henry’s cold and harsh voice was like the cold breeze in the North Pole blowing straight into Monique’s ears.He did not want to explain to her, he had already given hints, but she still did not get it. It was frustrating.There was a trace of coldness in his
“Put me down, I can walk on my own.” Monique felt embarrassed and said in a low tone.However, Henry had no intention to let go, he glanced at the servants, and they immediately lowered their head. Monique was more embarrassed, her face that had the size of a palm was quietly turning red. She could only curl in his arm quietly, when she was in his buff arm, she actually felt a sense of security that she never had.Henry ordered Shaun to arrange a private doctor to come over and examine Little Nomi and Monique. Then, he ordered Mrs. Lee to clean up Little Nomi, and the servants to bring dinner into their room. He took care of them regardless if it was a big or trivial matter.Monique’s clear bright eyes were glimmering, she was touched when he did all these for her. She had no idea how long it had been since she had the feeling of being taken care of.Henry put her on the bed after he gave out the orders. The doctor had arrived at the door when he had just put her to bed.“Young Ma
“You’re tough as expected.” When he heard she was fine, his brow and the tension on his face was slightly relieved, then he teased Monique.It was strange, since when did he start to care for a woman. When he felt his heart tighten earlier, it was the caring that he did not notice.Monique could not help but rolled her eyes, he actually used her words to tease her. The pain was like a blade twisting in her spine, and bathing her in cold sweat.The doctor finished the examination, she packed her things, bowed and opened the door, and then closed it. She went out to prescribe medicine. When she stepped out from the room, she breathed a sigh of big relief, as the coldness in Henry’s eyes was suffocating. It was like he would skin her alive if she said there was a serious injury. At the same time, she envied the woman on bed, she was lucky to have Young Master Moore cared for her.Monique wanted to get up and dress properly, it was uncomfortable to let a man see her half-naked. However
Apart from that, she could feel it, that part of his body was quietly awakening. If he punished her, no doubt the situation would be out of control, and he could have done it with her even if he was standing.As expected, Monique became very obedient and released her hand from the door. She let him into the bathroom. The bathroom was spacious, it was larger than where she lived.Henry tried to hold his urge not to look at her as he gently put her into the bathtub.Monique did not know when the bathtub was filled with water, and the temperature was just right. It was comfortable.“Come out and eat when you’re done.” His voice implied a trace of hoarse, he marched out to the door when he was done talking. He was a young man with a high-spirit after all. It was impossible for him to not have any reaction while he was carrying a delicate naked body. He tried his best to hold back his urge.Monique was sitting in there, dumbfounded. It was so embarrassing that she did not dare to look
After Mrs. Lee left, Monique sat down. She looked at Little Nomi who was sound asleep, while she thought, “Little Nomi, what should mommy do?”Little Nomi had already taken a bath, her face was clean. Monique lowered her head and gave her a peck on the forehead. Her expression was full of affection, and heartache.Little Nomi was not injured, but the trace of rope was still visible on her body. However, those traces had medicine applied to it.When she watched her sleeping in peace, her mouth curved up with a smile, but the look on her face was bitter. She would only reveal this kind of emotion when she was alone.Although Henry was domineering and unreasonable at the beginning and insisted she be his driver because of a piece of cloth, when he brought them to the Moore manor, he gave them a nice place to live, good food and drinks. It was a life better than what they had. He treated them so well that she started to think if he had some other intention.The way he treated her was
“I personally brought your dinner upstairs, hurry up and eat.” Henry said as he emphasized the word ‘personally’, like he was waiting for praise.“Ok.” Monique briefly replied. She was still having thoughts in her mind, and had not come back to her senses yet.Wait, what did he say? He said he personally brought her dinner.There were so many servants, why would he personally bring her dinner. Her heart was beating fast, and she did not dare to raise her head.The gleam in Henry’s eyes fainted away, he said he personally brought her dinner, should she not be grateful, why was she not responding?“Give me some response!” Henry raised his brows, his thin lips were lifted up high.“What response?” Monique rolled her eyes.“I brought you dinner, shouldn’t you be showing appreciation?” Henry gave her a cold glare, and looked at the woman in front of her with surprise.This woman was really st*pid, he saved her today, and yet she had not shown any appreciation.Be grateful to him, a
“It’s delicious, thank you.” Monique knew he was angry, so she purposely tried to find a topic to talk about.Henry sat lazily, and rolled his eyes. Was that a hungry ghost in front of him? She looked nothing like a woman.He was still furious. He saved her today, but she showed no sign of appreciation, and even avoided him, such an ingrate person. He looked at her with a sullen expression, and remained silent.The atmosphere in the room was eerie to the bone.Although Monique was still eating, his stare made her feel awkward to eat her dinner.“Why are you staring at me for the entire night? Do you like me?” She looked up with her almond eyes, the corner of her lips lifted. She mustered up her courage and asked in a joking manner. It was unpleasant when some words were hiding in her heart.“Like you? Why don’t you look into the mirror? How could I, Young Master Moore, be interested in you?” Henry sneered and ridiculed without even thinking about it.That was right, how could he
If Monique did not see it wrongly, the face of that man opposite from her was slightly red. Was he shy?“You’re so full of yourself!” She snorted quietly. She could see that he was not that angry anymore, so it was a good opportunity for discussion.She straightened her back and looked at him with an honest eye, then she said, “Henry, can you stop telling Little Nomi that you’re her daddy?”“No!” Henry rejected with a cold harsh voice and gave her a cold glare.She had a face the size of a palm, her brows were thin and long like a crescent moon, her lashes were thick, and her eyes were sparkling like a refined onyx. When she looked at him, there was determination in her eyes.She could feel the eeriness from him, even though he was only sitting there lazily with no emotions, but in her eyes, this good-looking man looked sinister, it was as if she would be eaten.However, this was not the time for her to be a coward. She mustered up her courage and looked at him, “I understand you
