The host of the auction looked awkward.

It was his first time encountering such a situation.

Freya was so furious that she slammed her hand on the table. “All of you are powerful figures in Australia. Have you no shame? Damn, if I could fork out 50 billion dollars, I would’ve bid the manor.”

“Who doesn’t wish to buy the manor? In fact, a lot of people do, but they are forced to listen to Campos Corporation,” Catherine said complicatedly.

Someone outside started to bid once more. “40.2 billion dollars.”

After hearing this voice, Catherine’s expression changed. Others might not recognize it, but she knew it was Wesley’s voice as she had known him for several years.

She never thought that he would come. Did he receive a warning from the Campos family as well?

Somehow, Catherine was quite disappointed.

In her eyes, Wesley was a gentleman. He could hate Shaun, but he probably would not make things worse for him.

Clearly, she was wrong.

    150 billion dollars was indeed an astronomical price.Mason had warned others not to raise the price. Hence, now that someone had the audacity to call out such a sky-high price, it was plain that he was challenging Campos Corporation.The host was dumbfounded, but he then said excitedly, “150 billion dollars, going once, going twice… Sold.”In the private room, Freya was astonished. “Who was the one who shouted this price out of the blue? 150 billion dollars? Let me do some math. It’s a lot.”“This amount… is not something many people can fork out.” Catherine was surprised. Somehow, the mysterious man whom she caught smoking earlier crossed her mind. “Don’t Mason want to continue bidding?” Freya sighed. “Is that it?”“Considering how petty Mason is, would he be willing to fork out 100 billion dollars? That’d be a joke.” The moment Catherine opened the door, two men blocked her way.“It’s a woman.” One of the men snorted. “Wait here. Chairman Campos would like to meet you.”“He

    Freya grasped Catherine’s message within a second. “Precisely. Are you guys insistent on blocking me? Fine. I’ll call Uncle Jason. Let me remind you that I’ll soon be the Snow family’s daughter-in-law.” Charlie instantly felt bad. The elected prime minister next year would most probably come from the Snow family. If they offended Jason, with whom they were currently trying to curry favor, they would be in deep water. Charlie almost forgot that Catherine’s best friend had such an influential background.“It was merely a misunderstanding.” Charlie’s expression immediately switched to a friendly smile. “I was just curious who called out 50 billion dollars.”Freya bit her lip. “We weren’t planning on buying it. We just felt that those wealthy families who kept adding 100 dollars were a disgrace to the other wealthy families in Australia.”Charlie’s expression was extremely cold and unpleasant. However, he had to suppress his rage.Meanwhile, Wesley dropped his gaze, and his expre

    Mason did not even harbor hatred for Lea.“Are you here to look for the buyer?” Mason mocked, “From your eager look, you must be thinking about selling your body and pestering the buyer. Unfortunately, you’re old and unattractive. Don’t do such a shameless thing, Lea.”Lea sneered. “Since you were here earlier than me, it means that you’re trying to pester the buyer as well. Unfortunately, she won’t be interested in an old man like you even if she’s rich.”Joanne teased, “My husband is so rich, and it’s always other people who pester him. What’s more, the person who bid for the manor was obviously a man…”“Yeah, it was a man, but he was much more generous than you. 50 billion and 100 dollars. Mason Campos, you’re the first wealthiest Australian who’s so miserly and petty. I felt ashamed on your behalf for bidding that amount.”After Lea finished speaking, she turned on her heel and walked away.Indeed, she was utterly disgusted by her ex-husband.How could one be so petty?Maso

    Once Regina turned around, her pretty face fell.Wesley was the one who took her to the auction. He even hugged and touched her in the private room just now. However, as soon as he came out of the room, he put on an elegant front. This man… was not one she could control, so she knew where she stood.Moreover, she did not admire Catherine. Conversely, she found Catherine quite stupid, probably because Catherine was under the impression that Wesley was deep in love with her. …Wesley drove the car.Seated in the passenger seat, Catherine took out a box from her handbag, and inside the box was a blue Patek Philippe SA mechanical watch. “It must have cost you a lot.” Wesley said painfully, “Don’t spend so much on me next time. I should be the one spending it on you instead.”“It doesn’t matter. I think this is my first time getting you a gift.” Catherine took out the watch and put it on for him. It looked gorgeous and luxurious.However, when her eyes settled on his wrist, Sh

    Suzie’s voice came from the door.Catherine took the opportunity and snuck out from under Wesley’s arms. “I… I have to bathe Suzie. You should sleep earlier.”Looking at Catherine’s silhouette, which was leaving in a hurry, Wesley’s eyes darkened.He was not a fool. He could sense the rejection of Catherine’s body toward his touch.She repulsed him so much, yet she could willingly accept Shaun.‘Catherine, you were lying when you said you no longer have feelings for Shaun.’...In the bathroom, Catherine’s mind wandered as she bathed Suzie. She did not expect her body to be so repulsive of Wesley.What should she do? She was already his wife, and some responsibilities could not be evaded.“Mom, were you planning to have a baby with Uncle Wesley just now?” Suzie’s words were shocking.Catherine pinched her cheeks with a flushed face. “What nonsense are you talking about? Who told you all these things?”“Uncle Liam told me to never kiss or touch the boys at preschool. Babies

    Shaun had thought it through. He did not know if he could be cured or not anyway, so he could not possibly find other women too. As such, he would just raise Liam’s daughter from now on.Firstly, it was to compensate Liam.Secondly, he liked Suzie a lot too. Since Suzie had lost both her parents, he was willing to take up the responsibility of being her father, even though she was not his biological daughter.Catherine was stunned to hear him.Hearing those words coming out from Shaun’s mouth was quite… unbelievable.She knew that no matter whether it was toward her or Sarah in the past, Shaun was the type who would cling on and refuse to let go. His obsession with love was slightly abnormal too.Hence, it was very astonishing to hear him say he would not remarry or have children all of a sudden.Even if Hill Corporation was done for, he did not need to be so discouraged and down.He was a bit different from the Shaun she knew.“Let’s discuss this only after you’ve solved the

    Catherine only picked up her phone again after Suzie fell asleep. Shaun had sent her a video.She put on earphones, and as she watched the video, her face flushed red. She found it unbelievable. In the video, the lights were not on, but the moonlight shone through the windows.She and Shaun were covered by the blanket. Shaun’s upper body was exposed, and her hands… were circled around his neck tightly.Not only that but her voice… It actually sounded as if she… really enjoyed it.She always thought she was in despair that night. Yet, the video made it look like she and Shaun were lovey-dovey, and that she was willing. Was that the video Wesley watched?She was so embarrassed that she desperately wanted to hit herself. However, once she calmed down and thought about it, no man could possibly stay indifferent after watching that video. Wesley did not mention a word about it after she returned. He even said it was fine as long as it was done against her will.Thinking back at

    Catherine understood it quickly. “You’re saying that after Liona’s members threw Liam there, another car came and dragged Liam into it?”Logan nodded. “There’s a big possibility that someone was watching from Liona’s door from the start. Another possibility is that an internal member of Liona leaked the information.”Catherine’s heart trembled.However, after giving it some thought, she totally agreed with Logan’s analysis.“Actually, I didn’t quite believe Liam would leak Hill Corporation’s data. He shouldn’t be that kind of person. I suspect there’s a spy in Liona, and it’s the same person as the one who leaked the data.“Moreover, Liona is the organization that Shaun trusts the most. When the microchip was developed, the first thing he must’ve done was let Liona’s important members guard the laboratory. It would not be impossible for that person to steal the data and find the right timing to frame Liam.”After she said that, Logan glanced with admiration. “Boss, I realize it's

    Behind the banana tree, Charity drew the leaves and walked out.She wore a discreet smile. “I didn’t expect Young Master Jewell to be so well-liked by girls. Girls these days are really bold and proactive. I’m old.”Looking at Charity’s pretty face, Chester could not help but smirk. “If you’re considered old, I’m even older.”“For men, the older, the more charming,” Charity said.“Really?” Chester suddenly grabbed hold of her hand and pulled it. “Do you think I’m charming?”Charity made a point to size him up. A moment later, a look of disdain washed over her face. “Not in the slightest.”Chester was exasperated. “Even if I’m not, I won’t allow you to escape my clutches.”As 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.“Go away. You may kiss your girl…”Charity

    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, “Do you want me to toss the bouquet to you?” “No.”Charity 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.“Alright. Although you don’t want it, it doesn’t mean he feels the same.” 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?“What gives? Could he have done it with you?” As soon as Freya noticed that Charity was quiet, she asked with interest and curiosity.“You’re overthinking it.”Catherine said with a discreet smile, “Even if there’s something wrong with that part of his, he could’ve done it if he wanted to.”“Wow. Sure enough, you know everything, Cathy.” Freya chuckled. “Charity, you can get Cathy to teach you one day.”However, Catherine still felt a little embarrassed, and her face flushed red. “Shaun 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.” After all, no one could beat Chester when it came to his experience with women.Charity was silent for a while before she said, “It doesn’t matter to me. I’ll let nature take its

    “You haven’t answered my question.” Charity asked in annoyance, “Why were you in a hurry to get away from me?” A miserable look washed over Chester’s face. “If I hadn’t done that, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to get hold of myself.”Charity looked down at the lower part of Chester’s body. “Is it because… you can’t control it anymore?”Her directness caused Chester’s face to turn grim. “Charity, do you mean that I have no sexual urges? There were homosexual eunuchs in the past. Although that part of mine can’t function, I can still feel the necessary sensations. When I see your sexy side, I still have the urge to hug and kiss you.”Once 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.“Charity, next time, can I…” Chester suddenly bit his tongue and stared at her. “Kiss you?”Charity’s 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. “Charity, it’s about time to wake up. You’re going to be a bridesmaid today. You need to wake up early.”While 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.“Are you planning to lie in?”As it was rare to see Charity so lazy, Chester secretly laughed. “Let me help you get changed.”By the time he staggered to her wardrobe and took out the bridesmaid’s outfit, Charity had woken up with a startle. “Why 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 Chester’s deep, gentle voice. “Charity, wake up…”She opened her eyes to see Chester’s face close up. Charity was exhausted. She woke up groggily, and her brain felt like it was not working. She rubbed her eyes. “How did I fall asleep?”Her hand felt slightly wet, and only then did she realize she was lying in the bathtub naked. Her body’s 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. “Who allowed you to enter without knocking? Get out.”“I called you, but you didn’t hear me.”Chester lied without flinching. “I came in because I was worried something happened to you. You’ve been in

    “I should be the one asking you why you’re in my room,” Chester asked Charity as he raised his beautiful brows and smiled like a sly fox.“...”Charity 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. “Are you afraid that I’ll eat you up?”“You think you can do that, huh?” Charity turned around and glimpsed at the lower part of his body. “Can you do it now?”Chester’s 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.“Since you know I can’t do that, what are you afraid of?” Chester gripped her waist. “Charity, stay here. All other rooms are occupied. If you don’t stay here, you have nowhere else to go.”Charity stomped on his foot. “Did y

    “Suspect that the child is yours?” 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. “As 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 hasn’t noticed it?”Chester was momentarily stunned, and a thought flashed across his mind. He was a little perplexed, but he dared not give it a thought. “Do you mean…”“Perhaps she has found out about it long ago, but she just hasn’t exposed it.” Shaun said indifferently, “I 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?”Chester revealed a strange expression, but he was holding on to some hope. “Maybe she didn’t guess it. They m

    Catherine, Freya, and Charity were sitting together and chatting. When Chase went over, Catherine immediately asked protectively, “What’s wrong?” “Your husband is bullying me.” Chase hid behind Catherine and glanced at Shaun, who was walking over with a dark expression. “Move your paw off my wife,” Shaun warned with gritted teeth. If it were not for Catherine’s presence, he would have thrown Chase off the plane. “What are you doing?”Catherine glared at her husband. “Chase and I are friends. We’re besties. What’s with your attitude?”“That’s right.” Chase straightened his back with Catherine’s support. “I 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. I’m so much better than you guys, yet I still don’t have a girlfriend. Did I say something wrong? How unfair is this?”“Is he angry because of that?” Freya asked sarcastically. Chase nodded repeatedly. “Was I wrong?” Catherine threw the bag o
