Mona noticed the man’s silence. She continued, “If you are unhappy because of it, I apologize. I can try to make it up to you, but please don’t cling on to me because of this. As for who the children’s father really is, or who I choose to be with, it’s no longer your business. Please do not interfere with my life.” Thaddeus scoffed scornfully. She must be joking! Why would he be interested in meddling with her life? “Mona, you think too highly of yourself. You and I were nothing but a game. Now that it’s over, why would I want to interfere with your life?” Thaddeus then looked away. He loosened his tie as the frustration built up. Mona nodded. “Great. You really are a man with a big heart, Mr. Fontaine.” Now that she made it clear, she no longer had to live under the pressure. “Thaddeus, there you are.” A feeble voice of a woman suddenly sounded. Mona looked in that direction and saw a woman in patient clothes coming over. Her face looked pale as paper, and she seemed
“Tell me the girl’s condition. I know the director, Matthew Summerton.” Dr. Hancock was surprised Thaddeus knew the hospital director. He believed that the man was someone with power, and not someone he could afford to offend, so he chose to disclose Millie’s condition to him. Learning the severity of Millie’s condition, Thaddeus said, “Please come up with the best solution to the girl’s condition, and prepare the best ward for her. Let me know how much it cost. Make sure to keep it confidential.” The man put his name card on the table and left. Dr. Hancock was slightly stunned when the man left his office. He picked up the name card and was shocked by the name on it. The man was the CEO of Timez Group. He was so handsome and looked so much younger than on television that the doctor did not recognize him. However, who was he to the girl?Dr. Hancock did not delve deep into the question. He did as he was told and arranged the best ward for Millie. That night, Mona and Mil
Although Mona and Thaddeus's marriage was based on a contract, it was legitimate and legal. Marianne was nothing but a mistress in their relationship. She knew Thaddeus was married, yet she somehow took pride in being his mistress and even announced her ambition to take over the wife’s position. She was shameless and took pride in her immoral acts. How could she not feel guilty of what she had done? Mona used to be confused as to why Thaddeus would choose a woman like Marianne out of everyone. It was not until she saw Samantha that she realized a woman like Marianne was the perfect candidate to attract all the media’s attention. Greedy, vain, and brainless. What a pitiful woman! “I want you to leave Mr. Fontaine right away!” Marianne yellowed furiously. Her eyes were overflowing with anger. Mona sighed and shook her head. “As a woman, I know what’s going on with you. So here’s a piece of advice: men are all realistic.“A stable and loving marriage is based on equality an
Marianne burst into tears as she clenched her teeth in pain. “Let me go! You’re ripping my hair off!” Mona noticed the flush on her face. Since she did not want to make things worse, she let go. She tucked her hair behind her ear, tapped her hands and said, “Here’s a reminder for you. I’m his expired toy now too, just like you. So get your shit together and stop causing me trouble.” Mona then looked at her scalded forearm. She had exerted excessive strength when she pulled Marianne’s hair, and it had made her burns worse. She needed to get it treated or else her kids would be worried about her. Mona walked past Marinna, who was gasping for air, and entered the hospital. Coincidentally, she ran into Thaddeus, who had just come out from the doctor’s office. With Samantha hospitalized, the man seemed to have ‘moved’ into the hospital. He must care about her a lot. Mona wanted to walk away to avoid an awkward meeting, but Thaddeus held her back. He went up to her and sa
However, the conservative treatment was not the solution. Millie’s condition would still eventually get worse in time, and dragging it out was not an option. “What’s wrong? Did something happen?” While Mona’s thoughts reached a deadend, Victor had come in with dinner. Noticing the gloomy mood on Mona, he told the kids to prepare for dinner before going over to her. “I’m fine. Maybe I’m just tired.” Mona massaged her swollen temples. She was exhausted, but if her exhaustion could be exchanged for her kids’ healthy future, it would be all worth it. Victor sighed softly and put his hand on her shoulder. He felt bad for her. As a woman in her 20s, she should be chasing dreams like other women of her age, not being dragged down by terrible problems like this. To be honest, Millie’s condition was incurable, and it would be a bottomless hole for her if she continued to contribute and devote herself into taking care of the girl. “You’ve done your best. Why don’t you try your
‘Mistress fought Marianne Colister on the street after successfully securing the attention of Thaddeus Fontaine, CEO of Timez Group. The identity of the mistress will be revealed soon. Stay tuned…’ Mona never would have thought her name would be trending like this. Someone had posted a video of her confronting Marianne in front of the hospital. It was shot from a distance, so only the actions were shown and not the conversation. The five-minute video went viral on all platforms. Netizens were already filling in the gaps with their wild imaginations on how two women fought for money and power. To the public, Marianne was the girlfriend and Mona was the arrogant mistress. The most eye-catching part was where Mona slapped Marianne and Marianne being too afraid to retaliate. It really looked like the mistress finally disqualified the girlfriend and won the man’s heart. Mona went through some articles before she explained to Luke, “It’s not like that. There was just a misunderst
Mona felt like she used to practice medicine even though Victor had told her that she used to be from a fashion design background. …Later that night, the hospital corridor quieted down, amplifying the footsteps that would step on it. A tall figure stood alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Marcus walked over and said quietly, "Master Fontaine, the matter of Marianne Colister has been settled. Madam... I mean, Mrs. Ortega won't be bothered anymore. “On another note, Master Cornwell hasn’t left the hospital either. He seems to have moved into Ms. Millie’s ward with Ms. Ortega.” The man did not turn around, but the atmosphere in the room started to get frosty and pressured. A hint of anger flashed in his squinted eyes. He had arranged a VIP ward for that woman because of Millie, not because he wanted them to have a family reunion. “Does Lady Eleanor know about this?” Marcus shook his head. “Master Cornwell told Lady Eleanor that he’s participating in a golf
Thaddeus's face was hidden in the shadows, veiling his emotions. “It’s late. Get some rest, Mr. Fontaine.” Mona did not want to linger. She walked past the man and avoided his gaze. Thaddeus, however, stopped her as soon as she took her first step, causing her to bump into his chest. It hurt as though she bumped into the wall! Thaddeus grabbed her wrist expressionless and checked the scald on her forearm. “Why didn’t you tell me about Marianne?” Mona curled her lips into a frivolous smile. One of the basic rules of divorce was not to interfere with each other’s life. After all, they were no longer husband and wife.“It was nothing big, and I didn’t want to trouble you.” Thaddeus narrowed his eyes. His gloomy gaze landed on her petite and delicate face. His nose picked up her alluring fragrance, causing him to gulp nervously. When they were together, the woman behaved like a pampered girl. She would cry for a day because of the smallest cut, afraid that it would l
