The guests immediately looked over.They recognized the woman as Chelsea Holt, the youngest daughter of the Holt family. They had already heard that the eldest daughter of the Holt family, Joanne Holt, had become Mason Campos’ woman.The smart ones immediately figured out what was going on when they saw this scene. Someone attentively came forward and asked, “Young Lady Holt, what’s wrong?”Chelsea pointed at Shaun with red eyes and complained, “I saw him standing here alone so I came to greet him, but after a few words, he started to flirt with me. I wanted to leave, but he grabbed my hand and pulled me. He even spilled his wine on my dress. Oh, how can I face other people like this?”She clutched her chest and sobbed.“You’re shameless!” A young man immediately pointed at Shaun and yelled, “Shaun Hill, who do you think Ms. Holt is? Do you think you can lay a hand on her? Why don’t you take a mirror to look at your current self?“Why did the Snow family invite such a rogue like
Freya looked at Catherine with a vague smile. “Can’t bear to see him like that?”“Don’t be ridiculous.” Catherine rolled her eyes. “I’m a kind-hearted person whose heart overflows with justice. I can’t stand to see any acts of bullying.”“But my heart isn’t overflowing with justice. I haven’t forgotten how Shaun allowed Thomas to hurt me,” Freya deliberately said.Catherine, “...”“Forget it, I’m just kidding.” Freya suddenly smiled. “I’m the same as you. I don’t like to see others bullying the weak.”Catherine was speechless. That woman actually teased her.“Wait here.”Freya flicked her hair and put on a princess-like temperament before walking over just in time to see Shaun grab the wrist of a young man who was pushing him.“Ouch, it hurts!” The young man bent over and screamed, “Help, Shaun is bullying me!”“You’re also a man, but you only know how to shout for help. If I were you, I’d be too embarrassed to shout.” Shaun gripped the man’s wrist tightly, giving off a chilly
Freya appeared at that moment. She grabbed Jason’s arm and smiled like a pampered child. “If you tell him to leave like that, he’ll be unconvinced. No matter what, tonight’s party is still for me. I think for the sake of fairness, let’s check the surveillance footage. It’ll be clear at a glance who’s in the right and wrong.”At those words, everyone’s faces immediately changed.Shaun looked at Freya in shock. He thought that Freya hated him very much.“Ms. Lynch, what do you mean? You don’t believe me?” Chelsea got a fright and hurriedly spoke up like she was being wronged.“Yeah, it’s clear that he started it. My hand still hurts even now,” Young Master Riley piped up immediately.“When did I say that I didn’t believe you?”Freya pretended to be aggrieved and pouted. “It’s because Shaun isn’t convinced, and I don’t want to give him the opportunity to argue again. You guys don’t care, but if news of this spreads, people outside will say that I bully the weak.”Jason’s expression
“Done.” After Freya walked over, she winked at Catherine.Catherine was just about to speak when she suddenly noticed that Shaun was looking over. Since he was far away, she could not see his eyes clearly, but it still made her feel awkward. “You didn’t say anything to him, right?”“I didn’t say anything.” Freya shook her head. “He doesn’t know that you’re worried about him.”“I’m not worried about him.”Catherine immediately glared as if she had been poked in a sore spot.“Don’t deny it, I understand.”Freya placed a hand around Catherine’s shoulder. “After all, he’s a man you once loved. When you see him in such dire straits, your heart will naturally feel differently than others. In short, it’s complicated. There’s a little hate, a little sympathy, and maybe something unknown—”“Shut up. I’m going to find Wesley. I can’t be bothered with you anymore.”Catherine pushed her away with a deadpan face and turned around.Although she was looking for Wesley, Freya’s words would
The lights were not turned on inside. The man’s body loomed over her as his scent filled her nose. Catherine felt upset and lowered her voice, asking, “Shaun Hill, why did you bring me here?”“Don’t you want to know who Senator Mead is?” Shaun changed the topic as if he did not hear her words.Catherine froze, and he said, “Senator Mead is the vice president who’ll take office next year. Wesley is working hard to please him now, which is probably his main purpose in coming tonight.”Catherine was completely shocked.She thought that Wesley was only trying to curry favor with a powerful person, but she did not expect it to be the future vice president.“Also, you might not know this, but Senator Mead and Nathan Snow are on the same boat. If he has a good relationship with Senator Mead, he’ll also be building a bridge with Nathan.”Shaun lowered his head and looked at her gently. “Do you know why Senator Mead is talking to him?”Catherine’s scalp tingled as she said in annoyance,
“Shaun Hill, what the hell do you want?” Catherine was powerless. “Do you know how bad your reputation is right now? If people find out that I’m alone in the same room as you, they’ll misunderstand.”Shaun lowered his eyes.The bright moonlight shone through the window, outlining his straight nose and thick eyelashes. He looked exquisite and magnificent like a sculpture.He was clearly a man in his 30s, but when he pursed his thin lips and fell silent, he looked like a youngster in his early 20s. He looked miserable like he was… an abandoned puppy.Catherine could not help but remember what Freya said.He was still a man she used to love. Although she hated him before, when she saw him so despondent and getting bullied by others, she would feel differently from others.Yes, things were a little different now.She thought that the current Shaun Hill… seemed a little pitiful—so pitiful that it made her heart soften...No, she could not think about it. She would go crazy.Cathe
“How am I forcing you—”Before Catherine could finish, the man suddenly lowered his head. Then, her lips were sealed by his.Her lips were the same as before, just like jelly.Shaun did not know what lipstick she was wearing tonight, but it smelled good.He initially just wanted to force her a little, but after kissing her, he could not stop. It was as though he was a child eating candy.Catherine’s eyes widened. When she came to her senses, she pushed his chest hard.However, the man’s tongue was like a sly snake.The more he kissed her, the more into it he got.She angrily used her fingers to pinch him.Shaun hissed out a breath. At that moment, she was like a chili pepper. It was extremely spicy, but it made him want to taste more.At that moment, the sound of several men laughing sounded through the door.“Wesley, you’re good at brewing tea.”“It’s my honor to show my skills in front of you, Senator Mead.”Wesley’s voice sounded through the door.Catherine was so scar
Catherine was stupefied.Her expression looked like she had gotten struck by lightning.He was already like this when he was not cured. What would happen when he recovered?She could kiss her peaceful life goodbye.“... Sometimes, you have to learn how to resign yourself to fate. There are some things that can’t be cured just because you want it to.”Catherine tried hard to restore her rationality and dispel those thoughts. “Why bother? If it can’t be cured, I really think you shouldn’t fight against fate.”She fluttered her big eyes with an innocent face.Those who did not know would think that she was persuading a juvenile who had lost his way.Shaun stared at her intently for a while before suddenly smiling. He said a few words, “After tasting you, I don’t want to resign to my fate.”Catherine became angry. “Have you ever asked for my consent? Even if you recover, I don’t like you and I won’t forgive you. Think about all the despicable things you did before this.”“Yes, I
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
