[Hey, are you available? Can you help me design a theater?]

“...”

Within just a few days, many people had looked for Catherine online to design their houses. However, Catherine did not accept their requests but only posted her company’s address.

Talton Design soon turned into a household name on the internet and consequently attracted an endless stream of clients.

Joseph grinned from ear to ear. He quickly gestured to Catherine and increased her salary. “Because of you, our company has received a few large projects worth over ten million dollars. It was very brilliant of you to turn things around. You’ve even become a well-known designer now. How awesome! You’re currently the most popular designer in the country.”

“Well, thank you for taking me in back then,” Catherine said with a smile.

The Jones family’s house.

At that instant, Rebecca was seething with rage.

These days, she had been receiving more than thousands of private messages with criticisms directed at her. Even

    Just as Catherine was packing her things to head to the restaurant with her colleagues, a few police officers barged in. “Who’s Catherine Jones?” Her colleagues looked at each other with alarmed faces. Catherine had a sinking feeling, then she stood up and said, “It’s me…”As soon as she responded, both her hands were cuffed. The police said indifferently, “A fire broke out in Lublin Hotel this morning, which has resulted in a loss of over ten million dollars. We’ve received a call from the party involved in the incident, and Summit claims that you were in charge of the hotel back then. You have to go to the police station to be investigated.”Catherine felt as if her head had exploded. “It has nothing to do with me at all. It’s been over two months since I left the hotel. They’re probably trying to make me their scapegoat!”“I’m sorry, but Summit has provided me with evidence regarding your receipt of rebate and use of uncertified cables. Stop denying it.”The police immediate

    The police flatly refused Catherine and locked her up once again.The small room was filled with seven to eight people. Each of them was assigned a wide wooden bed. As soon as she sat down, a tall woman walked toward her and splashed a pail of water on her bed.“What are you doing?” Catherine blurted out. A bunch of evil-looking women mobbed her right away.“How dare you shout at me?!” The tall woman rolled up her sleeves, then said fiercely, “You know, I killed the woman who shouted at me before this.”“Sorry... You may splash as you wish.” Catherine was not a fool. She knew full well that it was not easy to deal with the bunch of people who were locked up here, so she tried her best to tolerate them.Nevertheless, they did not seem to plan on letting her go.“Oh well, this won’t work on me. I hate beautiful women like you the most because my husband was snatched by a woman just like you.” The woman ran toward her and subsequently gave her a kick.As much as Catherine wante

    Freya’s heart sank. Indeed, the Clark family was one of the very few powerful families in Melbourne, but they had offended the Clark family this time.“So… So what can we do?”“I’ve… informed my uncle to come here.” A look of distress and helplessness crossed Ethan’s face. Although Wesley was currently his love rival, he had no choice but to ask him for help in order to save Catherine.“My uncle has a wide network. He might have a way out.”“Oh, okay.” Freya had heard from Catherine that Wesley was interested in her. Sure enough, Ethan had to rely on his uncle at crucial moments like this.As Freya gazed at Ethan, her eyes were increasingly filled with disgust. She could not help but mock him. “After being dumped by your fiancée, you finally know who treats you the best. You don’t find Catherine shameful anymore, huh?”“Back then, it was my fault. I was blind.”Freya snorted. “The environment in the detention center is really awful. Ever since Cathy was locked in the old manor,

    Wesley said, “Before this, he had been living in seclusion for years. He suddenly came to Melbourne a while ago, but it’s way too difficult to get him to help. Previously, I asked him to settle a business lawsuit for me by offering him a pay of 300 million dollars, yet he declined.“Of course, he has declined many offers, including those from the business and political powerhouses. In his eyes, money and power are nothing.”Freya was at a loss for words.In a daze, she wondered if Wesley was referring to that Shaun Hill.Cathy’s husband was also Shaun Hill, and he was a lawyer. Cathy said that her husband’s income was pretty much the same as hers, though.She also said that her husband behaved arrogantly and cruelly only because he was Chase’s friend.My God. What kind of a f*cking powerhouse had her best friend offended?Not only had she offended him, but she was also unaware of his identity despite staying with him for over two months.“Don’t worry. I’ll beg him,” Wesley sa

    Staring at the man’s chest, Freya was stunned. The man caressed her chin, his bewitching eyes displaying a captivating smile. “Tsk, you guys actually asked a woman to come over. She looks great, though.”Freya’s face darkened. She seriously wondered if she came to the wrong place.However, she heard the sound of people playing cards inside the room. She then asked, “I’m looking for Shaun. Is he here?”In a daze, the man turned his head and looked into the room, “Someone’s looking for you, Shaun. That’s strange. When did you get into a relationship with someone in Perth?”“I’m a friend of his wife.” Freya pushed away his hand that was blocking the door and entered the room in a huff.There were three men in the living room, and all of them had an impressive aura. One of the men with a cigarette dangling out of his mouth said, “Rodney, I just asked you to open the door. Why did you let her in?”“You can’t blame me.” Rodney Snow sat on an empty seat. He took a cigarette and lit it u

    ‘Boo-hoo. Sorry, Cathy. I’m doing this for the sake of saving you. Please forgive me for talking nonsense.‘You’ll have to fend for yourself after you get out of jail.’At that instant, the boisterous private room became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Shaun kept his face impassive when he knocked on the cards on the table with his fingers. It was hard to decipher the look on his face, and only he would realize the surge of emotions within him.It could be true that Catherine had not gotten over him. Considering that she loved him so much that she could disregard her dignity previously, she could not possibly have moved on.In fact, Catherine was mentally weak.They said the deeper one loved, the more one suffered.Nevertheless, he was very upset at that woman’s capability to lure men.“I’ll sleep on it. You may leave now.”After what seemed like an eternity, Shaun finally opened his mouth to speak.“How long do you need to think about it? Cathy has been locked for

    After carrying her to the backseat of the car, Shaun stretched out his hands to remove Catherine’s drenched shirt.Catherine subconsciously stopped him, her eyes expressing embarrassment.“Stop moving around and shut up. Let me take a look.” Shaun used one hand to press on her arm and the other hand to undo her shirt forcefully. Her originally snowy skin was filled with bruises at that point, which made her look miserable.Shaun somehow felt a tight sensation deep down, and his face looked extremely grim. Catherine could not be bothered about him. She only felt embarrassed about her unsightly bruises at that point.“Are you done looking?” She struggled in shame. Upon moving slightly, she felt so much pain that her face turned pale. “You’d better be obedient.” Shaun directly threw her drenched clothes to one side. He swiftly took off his sweater and windbreaker, then put them on for her.The moment he touched the wounds on her body, she gasped in pain.“Does it hurt badly?” Wi

    Would this mean that Shaun inwardly viewed Catherine as a woman who cried for him every day? Was she so madly in love with him that she just wanted to cook for him forever and be his wife?Catherine, who was already in shock, became even more bewildered. She seriously wondered if Freya was harboring a grudge against her. If that was not the case, why had Freya tricked her into getting together with Shaun in the first place? Now that Catherine could almost get rid of him, Freya made her out to be an infatuated woman in his eyes.Considering that Shaun had just saved her, she could not possibly expose Freya’s lies.In this case, would she have to embark on an arduous journey of acting again?“Don’t blame me. I did all this for the sake of saving you. If you were to be saved anytime later, you could’ve been tortured to death there.”Leaning on her pitifully, Freya whispered in her ear, “Don’t ever expose me in front of Shaun, or he’ll kill us. He’s a big lawyer, so we can’t affor

    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.

    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
