“Fate brought us together outside troubled times, yet destiny brought us to love in the hardest of times…”

It was a call from Henry. Monique picked up the call helplessly; she could no longer be angry at him. She was truly afraid of him calling the cops on her and she was willing to slave for him as long as she could stay with Little Nomi. 

Henry wanted her to move to his villa today to be on call 24/7. Monique agreed; she had no choice but to do so. 

“Little Nomi, we have to move to that person’s house,” Monique said to her daughter after hanging up the phone. 

Little Nomi agreed obediently. They packed light and went downstairs. 

The chauffeur was already waiting downstairs when they arrived. She bowed before Monique and Little Nomi, opened the door for them, and put their luggage into the trunk. 

The chauffeur stopped at a fenceless luxury villa halfway up the mountain. The vill

Little Nomi went ahead and played with the toys with Monique’s permission once Mrs. Lee left. 

Monique unpacked their luggage and truth be told, there was nothing more than clothes. 

Although it was a great environment, Monique had goosebumps all over thinking about having to spend so much time with that *sshole from now on. 

She looked over to the man’s bedroom door with curiosity and fear. 

His door was closed, she did not know if he was in. 

Meanwhile, Henry was looking at a report with a serious face on the other side of the door. His gaze was a little grim, but there was a hint of excitement on the corner of his lips. 

The DNA report stated that he was Little Nomi’s father. 

Monique was the woman he had been looking for for the past five years. No wonder he could fall asleep in her car twice. 

Little Nomi was his daughter after all and he could not believe that he was the father to such a cute and adorable kid. It was a magical and fortunate feeling; no wonder he liked Little Nomi a lot. 

The silly Monique had yet to recognize him so far. He wanted to see how long it would take for her to do so, but before that, he wanted to mess with her. 

Mrs. Lee came upstairs and found a peeping Monique adorable. She looked at Monique and said, “Miss Xander, it’s time for your meal.” 

Monique felt embarrassed and guilty from being caught in the act. She blushed immediately. Did Mrs. Lee assume that she was peeping at the Young Master?

Monique went to the other room and called Little Nomi to join her for the meal. Little Nomi was having too much fun. She loved the place so much that she reluctantly joined her mother downstairs. She had never owned this many toys in her life. 

“Mommy, this place is so, so fun,” the little girl said excitedly. Her gaze was filled with happiness. 

The dining hall was ridiculously grand as well, it was fancier than the place they went for dessert the other day. The silver tableware had exquisite food on them. There were both Chinese and Western cuisines. 

Henry did not know which cuisine they preferred so he ordered the kitchen to prepare both. 

Monique was shocked, but Little Nomi was extremely excited. The bowls they ate with were also very delicate. “Mommy, this creditor is way too good.” 

Monique’s lips twitched upon hearing Little Nomi.

Truth be told, Monique was anxious that he bullied her in the morning but was now treating them like VIP guests. Could it be that he would find an excuse to bully her later on? 

Nonetheless, she had no choice but to give in now that they were staying at his place. Since she was already here, there was probably no use for her to protest. 

On top of that, Little Nomi loved this place. 

Forget it, she was already here anyway, she would just have to take things one step at a tie. 

Henry coughed as he came downstairs and when he heard Little Nomi’s words, his eyes twitched. “The creditor!” 

Monique turned around and looked in the direction of the sound while pretending to stay calm. He was wearing casual loungewear while walking over in a lazy yet noble manner. The handsome and elegant aura emanating from him was mixed with unfathomable danger. 

“Daddy!” Little Nomi exclaimed. Could it be that he was the creditor her mother had been talking about? 

Henry was happy to hear that. Although this was not the first time Little Nomi called him her Daddy, he felt a new sense of excitement about it ever since he found out that he was indeed her father. 

The happiness he felt far outweighed the excitement of winning projects worth hundreds of millions. 

“Little Nomi, he’s not your father,” Monique said sternly. There was a hint of sadness in her eyes.

How could there be a man like this, how could there be an *sshole like this! 

Cindy had been waiting at the lift’s entrance. She was surprised that Monique was not chased out. Her face that was covered with exquisite makeup became more and more hideous by the second. The jealousy in her heart could almost drown Monique. 

She eventually saw Monique leave the CEO’s office. Monique looked like a zombie as she walked out lifelessly. 

Cindy’s expression turned passionate in seconds. She came over and held Monique asking, “Monique, why are you only out now? I’ve been waiting for you for some time.” 

“What were you talking about?” Cindy asked. No one would have guessed that this endearing look came from the same person who accused Monique just before. 

Monique was frustrated and she needed to vent. 

“He was collecting his debt,” Monique mumbled. 

Yes, she must have owed him something in
