All Chapters of Clingy Love: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

All eyes fell on Thaddeus, including Mona’s when he walked into the room. As the man drew close, it took Mona a few seconds to register that Thaddeus was there. Only, what was he doing there? “You’re finally here, Thad.” Now that help had arrived, Raymond approached Thaddeus, and they spoke in hushed tones, “It’s not looking good for us. Mrs. Yale isn’t backing down and is ready to call the cops.” Tensing his facial muscles, Thaddeus glanced indifferently at Raymond and sneered. “And you only informed me of it now? I told you you aren’t cut out for this.” “Now is not the time to talk about that.” Raymond took a fleeting glance at Mona. “Mona is in a tough spot at the moment. Hurry up and figure something out.” “So you can’t even handle a tiny issue like this? I guess your business degree attained from abroad was for nothing.” Raymond was speechless. He graduated at the top of his class in business school. Alas, Thaddeus was too much of a perfect guy that he outshined ever

“Ben, Tim, tell me the truth. Why were you at the guest reception area?” Mona folded her arms and looked at the two young, dashing boys who were a lot taller than her. She carried herself like a demigoddess with uncanny abilities. Ben and Tim hung their heads low and stared at the floor under their feet, not saying a word. “Fine. Don’t want to talk? Then you can forget working with me from now on. I don’t need two assistants who can’t be forthright and truthful with me,” Mona pretended to be angry. The trick seemed to work, as Ben was the first to lose his cool. He turned his eyes to Tim. “Why don’t we tell Mona about the plan? She’s one of us, so there’s nothing to hide.” Tim remained tight-lipped, but he did not refuse Ben’s suggestion. Getting the green light, Ben went on to explain to Mona. “Don’t be mad, Mona. We had our reason to go to the guest reception area, but it was not to steal anything. The old hag must be out to get you. Had we known she had set up a trap, we

“I don’t. How much is it worth?” Mona shook her head. Although she had no idea its value, the ring must be expensive. Raymond smiled. “My silly girl, would you believe me if I told you this ring could buy you a country? The ring Thaddeus placed onto your finger could fund the economy of an entire nation.” Despite mentally preparing herself for a number, Mona was blown away by Raymond’s answer. She unfurled her palm and studied the ring, suddenly feeling the weight in her hand. “Don’t make a fuss, but I can tell you one more thing. Thad left in the middle of a hundred-million-dollar negotiation to stick up for you. What do you think you mean to the guy if he ditches the one thing he believes is most important? Let’s not forget that he’s all about his career, work, and profits.” Dumbstruck at first, Mona then smiled. “Raymond, no one can read Thaddeus’s mind. I think you’re imagining it.” “Well, we shall see.” Raymond watched Mona walk away, thrilled about what was to com

Shocked and appalled, Thaddeus looked at Mona, who had a knife to her neck. The woman was as stubborn and headstrong as a mule. There was nothing he could do about it. “I never said I’d take the kids from you. I’ve even moved in with you. Isn’t it enough to show my good intentions?” Thaddeus reached out to take the knife away from Mona and calm her nerves. “No one is taking your children from you. Take it easy.” “You must promise me and honor your promise that you won’t take my children from me.” Mona put her guard down. “Of course. When have I ever lied to you?” The man turned around and carried on slicing the fish on the cutting board. “Check on the kids. I’ll call you when dinner is ready.” Mona observed the man’s back, unable to figure out what was going through the man’s head. Now that he was staying here, what about his fiancée? Besides, Mona and Thaddeus were divorced. It would make them cohabitating partners to be living under the same roof. “Thaddeus, I neve

That night, Marcus brought Thaddeus’s suitcase to Mona’s place. Marcus walked through the door to find a man in a pink apron doing the dishes. Marcus’s jaw dropped in surprise. In all the years working as an assistant to the CEO, Marcus had never seen Thaddeus busy in the kitchen. He had to say that the CEO looked tamed running the household like a housewife. “Sir, this is the minutes of the management meeting today. There are a few documents needing your signature on the computer.” Marcus reported while putting the suitcase and paperwork on the table. Thaddeus wiped the cutlery dry, glanced at Marcus, and offhandedly uttered, “Marcus, from tomorrow onward, cancel all business dinners and send the deputy chiefs in my stead. Free up my time from four to eight o’clock. If you need me for anything work related during that time, try and report to me after seven.” Marcus nodded and responded affirmatively. During their conversation, Mona came downstairs. Marcus took notice of
