“It’s alright. We can stop pretending soon. Mommy will do better.” Mona consoled her kids and brought them to the car that the agency had prepared for her. “Mona, are you free tonight?” The director suddenly called her from behind. Mona had just put the kids into the car. She looked back at the director and smiled, “What’s the matter, director?” “We’re having a gathering later. Join us if you have the time. I can introduce you to more people in the industry.” Mona’s eyes gleamed. It was a golden opportunity that she could not miss. “Thank you, director. I’ll be there!” Mona brought the kids home, had lunch with them, and tucked them in for a nap. When the babysitter came, Mona went out. It was almost time for the gathering, so Mona called a ride and headed to the designated hotel. She thought it would just be a simple gathering over dinner, where guests would sit around a table and chat over drinks and food. However, when the waiter brought her into the main ban

Mona did not linger any longer at the event. She left through the side door, away from the crowd. Marcus watched her leave without any scruples. He could not help but let out a sigh in admiration— Mona was a hero among women.Almost every woman out there idolized his boss, and were willing to kill to crawl into his bed. However, Mona was different. He was unclear if Mona was a person with integrity or she simply hated his boss but could not afford to offend him. Marcus went back to Thaddeus. “Sir, Ms. Ortega declined your request. She said she’s feeling unwell tonight and wanted to leave early.” Thaddeus swirled the wine in his glass silently and drained it to the last drop. Even Marcus gulped when he saw his boss’s sexy Adam’s apple move. “Sir, do you still want to keep room 502?” After all, he still had Marianne for the night. Thaddeus glanced at Marcus coldly. “You can have it.” The cold glance gave Marcus chills. “I’m single. Why would I want the room to my
Clingy Love Chapter 21
Thaddeus went silent for a while. The call plunged into an awkward silence, which fueled Mona’s anxiety. She dared not hang up on him either. After a while, the man's deep voice said, “Grandfather’s birthday is in two days. Be prepared to join me at dinner.” Mona’s heart slightly moved. Thaddeus said that he would submit the divorce papers after his grandfather’s birthday event. Now it made sense why Mariane was pregnant. It was time for her to give up the position of the secret wife. After the call, Mona felt relief more than ever. She started a countdown to the birthday event in her heart. On the auspicious day, Mona dressed up meticulously for the event. She wore a beautiful fitting dress that looked fashionable and elegant, suitable for attending formal events. Thaddeus parked the car by the road and picked her up. The man’s gaze was glued to her body. The tight dress highlighted her voluptuous body, especially her slender waist. Thaddeus gulped nervously be

Mona sat alone in the living hall. While she did not fit in with the Fontaines, she did not mind.To kill time, she grabbed a book and started reading. A while later, a loud engine rumbled from the front yard. The servant said, “Madam Eleanor and Master Victor have arrived.” Mona turned to the entrance. A woman in her mid-forties came in. Her illness painted her face pale, and the dark eye circles gave her a tired look. She was Eleanor Fontaine, Thaddeus’s half-sister. It was then that Mona noticed the young man beside Eleanor. He looked rather familiar. The man had also spotted Mona, and he was stunned. His gaze fixated on her face for quite a while. Mona blushed after being stared at so brazenly. Suddenly, she remembered. He was the man who abducted her to the club a few days ago! Eleanor noticed the blank look on her son’s face. She introduced him to Mona, “Victor, that’s Mona, your Uncle Thaddeus’s wife. You should call her Aunt Mona.” Mona got up with a polite

Victor then came back in with Eleanor’s medicine. Mona secretly sized up Victor. She was curious as to how much she resembled the Susan he mentioned. Why would he lose control over himself whenever he saw her? As she drifted away in her thoughts, the grip on her waist tightened and brought her back to the present moment. “Ouch! That hurts!” she grunted and frowned at Thaddeus. Thaddeus looked at her and softly tapped on her nose. “It’s dinner time. Don’t be nosy.” Mona was stunned when she locked eyes with the man. There was an unprecedented affection and kindness in his abyssal eyes, yet they felt surreal. He must be acting. His grandfather wanted Thaddeus to live a good life, so Thaddeus used her to entertain the old man and make him happy. The man was on par with Marianne in terms of acting. If he were to debut as an actor, he would probably get an award. Unfortunately, the couple’s ending would probably disappoint the old man. Dinner began once everyone was sa

Thaddeus ignored his mother’s screaming. He glared at Victor, unable to suppress the anger boiling in his chest.He switched his glare back to Mona and repeated the question, “Answer me! Who are the kids he’s talking about?” Mona chose silence. She looked down and refused to explain. A moment later, she said, “Is my answer that important to you?” To him, she was just a toy he used to vent his lust. So why would a tool need to explain herself? She was not that important to him. The disappointment in Thaddeus’s eyes grew denser. Amid the awkward silence, the man chose to leave. After Thaddeus left, Eleanor quickly pulled her son away, afraid he would continue his ridiculous act. Mona was then left alone with Jennifer. She glared at Jennifer, who had a delighted smile on her face. “You did that on purpose!” Jennifer crossed her arms and gloated at Mona. “So what if I did? I’m helping you. You two were getting a divorce anyway. Since Thaddeus was having a hard time com

“Let’s go in.” Thaddeus took the lead, with Mona following behind him. As the sun shed its brilliance on the towering figure, his massive shadow enveloped the petite woman whole. The sudden darkness stunned her. She realized her marriage with Thaddeus was like a child trapped behind a wall or fortress. She had tried to escape the wall’s shadow, but her attempts were futile until today. After three years of being shadowed by the wall, she finally welcomed freedom. When they got into the spacious courthouse, they were the only ones there to file a divorce. Thaddeus had arranged for this to happen since he had to keep this marriage secret until the very end. The process went swiftly and smoothly since they were the only ones. Less than ten minutes later, they left the courthouse as divorcees. Thaddeus opened the door to his car. He looked at Mona and asked, “Where are you heading? I’ll give you a ride.” Mona glanced at her watch. She had an appointment with an e-commerce
Clingy Love Chapter 26
Mona had no idea someone had dissed her after she left Thaddeus. She returned to her work and got busy. After the interview with the e-commerce shop, it was almost noon. She took a ride to the hospital. The first thing she wanted to do now that she had gotten the alimony was to ask for a specialist to treat Millie’s condition. Unfortunately, the doctor informed her that Millie’s condition was rather complex. The odds of the operation being successful were only 40%; if it failed, it would endanger the girl’s life. In other words, the operation was a gamble. In the best case scenario, Millie could grow up healthily; in the worst, she would lose the girl forever. However, if she chose not to treat Millie’s condition, the girl would not make it past ten years old. Mona could not make such a heavy decision in a heartbeat. It was too difficult for her. So she decided to delay the consultation and decided to think it over. She walked out of the hospital, dispirited. When she f
