Joel said, โThe Holt family is planning to buy Hill Corporation for a song while the Campos family is secretly inciting the matter. Now, all the wealthy families in Canberra are just waiting to watch the drama unfold.โAs Catherine listened to Joel, she was increasingly disgusted by those wealthy families in Canberra.โAlas, poor Suzie. I shouldnโt have let her return to the Hill family.โ Joel sighed. โAnyway, donโt overthink it. Have a great life with Wesley in the future. Donโt let him down again.โโMm.โ Catherine lowered her head.When it was time for dinner, Wesley drove over.The minute Wesley saw Suzie, he held her up happily. โSuzie, why donโt you come to my house with your mommy tomorrow?โ โOh, okayโฆโ Suzie answered by stretching out her voice, neither happy nor sad. She just felt that Wesleyโs house was not her home. โMommy, are you going to move to Uncle Wesleyโs place?โ โSuzie, go and have dinner with Lucas first.โWhen Catherine sent Suzie away, Wesley gazed at he
Wesley took two steps backward and gave a bitter laugh before he turned on his heel and left.Lucas and Suzie ran to Catherine. โMommy, why did Uncle Wesley leave? Did both of you quarrel?โโGo and have your dinner.โ Catherine bent over and replied gently.There was a great sense of fatigue in the depths of her eyes.โฆIn the next two days, Shaun asked all Liona members to search for Liam. However, it seemed as if he had vanished into thin air.โEldest Young Master, weโve checked the records at the train stations, airports, and highways, but Liam didnโt leave from any of these places. Even the foreign hospitals donโt have Liamโs clinical record,โ Chance reported his findings with a frown. โAt present, there are only two possibilities. The first possibility is that Liam has been locked up. Another one is thatโฆ Heโs dead.โSitting on the leather chair, Shaun felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured over his tall figure.โDead?โHow could it be? How could someone as hard to
โEven if you didnโt do this, Liamโs disappearance surely has to do with you.โ Lea was consumed with regret.These days, she had been so muddleheaded and overwhelmed by Masonโs cheating and betrayal that she had neglected her two sons. By the time she came to her senses, Liam had gone missing.โShaun Hill, if you donโt bring Liam back, Iโll never acknowledge you as my son.โ Once Lea finished her sentence in hysterics, she suddenly felt faint. โMadam.โ Chance swiftly held her.Shaun leaped to his feet and carried Lea. Then, he raced her to the hospital.After conducting different types of blood tests, the doctor said, โMadam Hill hasnโt slept for a few days or so. Her fatigue and blood insufficiency have also contributed to her feeling faint. She needs to take care of her health by relaxing and worrying less.โA bitter look washed over Shaunโs face. By the look of things, how could Lea possibly relax?Shortly after the doctor left the ward, a few police officers walked in.โMr
[Are my eyes deceiving me? Eldest Young Master Hill has been arrested for kidnapping Second Young Master Hill, but didnโt he kidnap Catherine too? He really enjoys kidnapping people, huh?] [He is completely lawless. He even kidnapped his own brother. Quickly lock him up.][I heard Shaun has a bad temper, and he used to take it out on Liam for no reason.][What happened this time seems much more serious than that. Rumor has it that Liam has gone missing for days. The witness in the hotel said that the last time he saw Liam was when Shaun took Liam away. Luckily, Liamโs dad, Mason Campos, has reported it to the police.][Now that the Campos family is the most influential family in Australia, they can send Shaun to jail. Donโt ever let him out.]The issue had caused a heated discussion among the netizens. Even Catherine learned about the matter through the internet.As her assistant, Harvey also informed her about what he heard. โI heard Hill Corporation is planning to sell off the
Who on earth was that ruthless person?Mason Campos? He did not have such a deep-seated hatred for Liam, did he?Could it be someone else?โMotherf*cker. How dare you kick me?โ That man wiped his injured mouth. Just as he was about to walk toward Shaun, the police suddenly came in and yelled, โWhat are you guys doing? How dare you guys beat each other in private even when youโre locked up.โ โฆIn the villa situated on the coast.When Wesley received a call, his lips curled upward. โIs it done?โโYes. The person in the detention center said that Shaunโs thigh was bleeding profusely, so heโll most likely become a eunuch in the future.โโMost likely?โ Wesley narrowed his eyes. โI want it to be certain.โ Considering that Shaun had humiliated him time and time again, Wesley wanted him utterly destroyed. Wesley wondered how Shaun was now going to play around with women since he enjoyed it so much. Would Shaun have the dignity to approach Catherine if he was a eunuch?โI canโ
โThink about it. Donโt you think this person is quite scary?โ Chester darted a glance at Rodney. โWeโre all fighting in the business industry, and those who have succeeded are all crafty and unyielding. Wesleyโs company has only been around for a few years, yet it is now a leading company in Australia. I still remember when Golden Corporation was set up in Canberra a few years back, a lot of people looked down on it. Itโs not clear when he gained a foothold in Canberra. But these days, heโs always present in social gatherings involving prominent figures in the business industry.โ โ...Precisely.โ Rodney was enlightened by his reminder.โWhatโs moreโฆ Do you remember when Catherine came from Melbourne three years ago? She was Wesleyโs fiancรฉe at that time, but Shaun later snatched her from Wesley. Then, during Wesley and Catherineโs wedding, Shaun came to seize her in public again. It was a slap in Wesleyโs face. Do you think any man could put up with that?โโYeah.โ Rodney recalled th
โHey, say something.โShaunโs behavior made Rodney uneasy. โNow is not the time to feel sad. You still have a lawsuit to dispute. The Campos family deliberately made this matter big to attract the publicโs attention. If something hadnโt happened to you in the detention center, we wouldnโt have been able to bail you.โโThe police have forbidden you from leaving Canberra.โ Chester sighed and said, โWhat actually happened to Liam? Why is he missing all of a sudden?โRodney said, โCould it be Liam and Mason trying to scheme against you? Liam could, very well, be hiding.โShaun closed his eyes, his black lashes casting a tired shadow beneath his eyes. โIโm not sure, but I have a sinking feeling that this matter might have to do with Mason. How does Mason look?โChester recalled the incident. โWhen I confronted him in the police station, he looked quite angry, butโฆ I didnโt sense any sadness in him.โโLiam must be f*cking hiding,โ Rodney said in exasperation. โMaybe not.โ Shaun shook
When Catherine was looking at a menโs suit, someone tapped her from behind.Freya smilingly appeared beside her. โItโs been more than a month. Tsk, absence really does make the heart grow fonder. You finally asked me out.โโAlright. I just want you to help me pick a menโs shirt.โ Catherine took a blue shirt and asked, โWhat about this?โ โThis shirt looks young. If youโre not buying this for your dad, it has to be either for Wesley or Shaun,โ Freya responded after glancing at it.Catherineโs face fell. โDo you think Iโll buy it for Shaun? Iโm getting it for Wesley. I made him angry, so Iโm planning to buy him a shirt and apologize to him. But I donโt know his size. Sigh.โ โDonโt bother buying a shirt, then. If itโs for a man, you should buy a watch instead. Come on. Letโs go and pick a nice watch.โWith that, Freya dragged her out of the store.Catherine thought it through for a while and felt that a watch would match a manโs identity better as well. โDid I interrupt your work
Behind the banana tree, Charity drew the leaves and walked out.She wore a discreet smile. โI didnโt expect Young Master Jewell to be so well-liked by girls. Girls these days are really bold and proactive. Iโm old.โLooking at Charityโs pretty face, Chester could not help but smirk. โIf youโre considered old, Iโm even older.โโFor men, the older, the more charming,โ Charity said.โReally?โ Chester suddenly grabbed hold of her hand and pulled it. โDo you think Iโm charming?โCharity made a point to size him up. A moment later, a look of disdain washed over her face. โNot in the slightest.โChester was exasperated. โEven if Iโm not, I wonโt allow you to escape my clutches.โAs soon as he finished speaking, he leaned forward domineeringly and locked lips with Charity.Ever since she quit the entertainment industry, she hardly wore lipstick. He was not sure of the brand of the lipstick she applied today, but it was soft and smelled good.โGo away. You may kiss your girlโฆโCharity
A grand wedding was held at the seaside.The two couples exchanged vows, kissed, and promised to be lifelong companions. It was the happiest moment of their lives.When Charity brought the ring to Catherine, Catherine asked in a low voice, โDo you want me to toss the bouquet to you?โ โNo.โCharity rejected outright.However, Catherine did not force her. After all, she could tell that Charity was not as eager as Freya to have a wedding.Frankly, Catherine found it tiring to prepare for the wedding.โAlright. Although you donโt want it, it doesnโt mean he feels the same.โ Catherine darted a playful glance at Chester.He was outstandingly handsome among the groomsmen.Some attendees of the wedding were under the impression that Chester and Charity were a couple, while some others were unsure. There were even a few pretty foreign girls who took the initiative to flirt with Chester, whereas some girls took out their phones to take photos of him. Charity took a glimpse of Chester
Charity was speechless.It was true that Chester could not do it with her.Was that why her good friends could look so calm even after hearing that she had spent a night with Chester?โWhat gives? Could he have done it with you?โ As soon as Freya noticed that Charity was quiet, she asked with interest and curiosity.โYouโre overthinking it.โCatherine said with a discreet smile, โEven if thereโs something wrong with that part of his, he couldโve done it if he wanted to.โโWow. Sure enough, you know everything, Cathy.โ Freya chuckled. โCharity, you can get Cathy to teach you one day.โHowever, Catherine still felt a little embarrassed, and her face flushed red. โShaun used to have a mental block in that aspect too, but he would still make me happy. If Shaun knows that, I believe Chester knows better.โ After all, no one could beat Chester when it came to his experience with women.Charity was silent for a while before she said, โIt doesnโt matter to me. Iโll let nature take its
โYou havenโt answered my question.โ Charity asked in annoyance, โWhy were you in a hurry to get away from me?โ A miserable look washed over Chesterโs face. โIf I hadnโt done that, Iโm afraid I wouldnโt have been able to get hold of myself.โCharity looked down at the lower part of Chesterโs body. โIs it becauseโฆ you canโt control it anymore?โHer directness caused Chesterโs face to turn grim. โCharity, do you mean that I have no sexual urges? There were homosexual eunuchs in the past. Although that part of mine canโt function, I can still feel the necessary sensations. When I see your sexy side, I still have the urge to hug and kiss you.โOnce Charity understood the situation, she felt slightly more relaxed.After all, she was a woman and was under the impression that she had lost her charm in front of Chester.โCharity, next time, can Iโฆโ Chester suddenly bit his tongue and stared at her. โKiss you?โCharityโs pretty face instantly heated up.When had she stopped him from kis
Charity never knew that the three of them could sleep so soundly. When she sent Cal to sleep sometimes, he would always wake her up several times in the night. Moreover, she would worry that he would kick off his blanket, so she would hardly sleep well.However, with Chester around, she subconsciously felt more relaxed as she did not need to care about everything on her own.Just as the dawn broke the next day, she was woken up by a kiss. โCharity, itโs about time to wake up. Youโre going to be a bridesmaid today. You need to wake up early.โWhile waking her up, Chester kissed her for his own advantage.Charity opened her eyes in a daze. She still felt so sleepy that she did not want to move.โAre you planning to lie in?โAs it was rare to see Charity so lazy, Chester secretly laughed. โLet me help you get changed.โBy the time he staggered to her wardrobe and took out the bridesmaidโs outfit, Charity had woken up with a startle. โWhy are you moving around? You should lie do
Charity was in the bathtub until she felt sleepy. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard Chesterโs deep, gentle voice. โCharity, wake upโฆโShe opened her eyes to see Chesterโs face close up. Charity was exhausted. She woke up groggily, and her brain felt like it was not working. She rubbed her eyes. โHow did I fall asleep?โHer hand felt slightly wet, and only then did she realize she was lying in the bathtub naked. Her bodyโs curves were vaguely visible under the red rose petals. Meanwhile, Chester was standing beside the bathtub with a fresh towel in his hand. That scene suddenly hit Charity like lightning, and the grogginess she was feeling immediately disappeared.She wanted to hide, but there was nowhere to hide in the bathtub. Her face blushed in an instant. โWho allowed you to enter without knocking? Get out.โโI called you, but you didnโt hear me.โChester lied without flinching. โI came in because I was worried something happened to you. Youโve been in
โI should be the one asking you why youโre in my room,โ Chester asked Charity as he raised his beautiful brows and smiled like a sly fox.โ...โCharity glared at him. After exchanging glances with him for a few seconds, she carried her son and walked away.When she held the door handle, she felt a force grabbing her from behind.Chester stopped in his tracks and wrapped his hands around her slim waist. โAre you afraid that Iโll eat you up?โโYou think you can do that, huh?โ Charity turned around and glimpsed at the lower part of his body. โCan you do it now?โChesterโs handsome face stiffened, and a look of dejection washed over it.All of a sudden, Charity felt that she had gone too far by adding insult to injury.For a man, that was his greatest pride.โSince you know I canโt do that, what are you afraid of?โ Chester gripped her waist. โCharity, stay here. All other rooms are occupied. If you donโt stay here, you have nowhere else to go.โCharity stomped on his foot. โDid y
โSuspect that the child is yours?โ Shaun continued all of a sudden.Chester nodded.The more the child resembled him, the more afraid Chester was.He would rather the child bore a greater resemblance to Charity.Shaun glanced at Chester, who looked uneasy, and could not help but laugh. โAs I said, onlookers see most of the game, and that saying is very true. Even Chase could tell that the child is yours at first glance. Do you think a clever person like Charity hasnโt noticed it?โChester was momentarily stunned, and a thought flashed across his mind. He was a little perplexed, but he dared not give it a thought. โDo you meanโฆโโPerhaps she has found out about it long ago, but she just hasnโt exposed it.โ Shaun said indifferently, โI even suspect my wife knows. Considering how smart she is, how could she not have guessed that Charity had used your sperm to get pregnant?โChester revealed a strange expression, but he was holding on to some hope. โMaybe she didnโt guess it. They m
Catherine, Freya, and Charity were sitting together and chatting. When Chase went over, Catherine immediately asked protectively, โWhatโs wrong?โ โYour husband is bullying me.โ Chase hid behind Catherine and glanced at Shaun, who was walking over with a dark expression. โMove your paw off my wife,โ Shaun warned with gritted teeth. If it were not for Catherineโs presence, he would have thrown Chase off the plane. โWhat are you doing?โCatherine glared at her husband. โChase and I are friends. Weโre besties. Whatโs with your attitude?โโThatโs right.โ Chase straightened his back with Catherineโs support. โI simply said you got lucky to be able to be a dad despite being so sc*mmy at first. Cathy even brought a set of twins back to you. Iโm so much better than you guys, yet I still donโt have a girlfriend. Did I say something wrong? How unfair is this?โโIs he angry because of that?โ Freya asked sarcastically. Chase nodded repeatedly. โWas I wrong?โ Catherine threw the bag o
