“Yes.” Lea nodded blankly. “That year, I had just divorced your father and didn’t want to remarry so quickly. I fought with your father that day and drank some wine. I ended up with Mason.”Shaun raised his brows at her lost expression. As a son, the only thing he could do was sigh helplessly. “Is there a possibility that the person might have been my dad?”Lea was so shocked by his words that she stammered, “That’s… That’s impossible.”“I’m just saying. You don’t have to think too much into it. I have something to do, so I’m going out. I’ll leave Suzie and Lucas to you tonight.”Shaun spoke and left the dumbfounded Lea behind.He quickly drove to the villa that Brennan recently bought in the capital. Although Hill Manor was Brennan’s now, it was too high profile. Brennan was not living there for the time being.“It’s so late, why did you suddenly come over?” Brennan was dressed in a robe and had just about gotten ready to sleep when he heard that Shaun was coming. Hence, he came
“I understand, Dad.” Shaun sighed inwardly. He thought he was very smart, but compared to Brennan, he was still too inexperienced.“As expected of my son. When you rise again, the time will come for us father and son to take revenge.” Brennan’s eyes were filled with hatred.Shaun’s lips moved slightly. “Dad, I want to ask you a question. 20 years ago, after you divorced Mom, did you two ever… sleep together again?”Brennan was startled. After a moment, his eyes flashed with annoyance. “Why are you asking that? It’s been so many years that I’ve already forgotten. Just the thought of Lea makes me nauseous.”“Is it because of Mason and her?” Shaun could not help but ask.“What else could it be? No man can stand something like that. I don’t care what history she had with Mason. She should’ve at least kept a distance from him for the sake of her child after getting married, but what did she do instead? She neglected you and went out with Mason every day.”Even though it was so long ag
“No.” Brennan fiercely punched his fist against the wall, making blood seep out. “That b*stard Mason Campos! He’s too vicious.”“Yes, he’s vicious.” Shaun suddenly raised his red eyes. “Dad, there’s someone who knows Liam’s last location. I’ll get the person over and interrogate them.”He originally did not want to touch Yael, but for Liam, he had no choice but to act in advance....In an unremarkable neighborhood in Canberra.Chance called out, “Food’s ready.”Yael came out from inside with a slightly bulging belly.However, when Chance saw the delicate makeup on her face, his expression became ugly. “Yael, the doctor said that women can’t use makeup when they’re pregnant. Cosmetics are harmful to the skin, but you applied such thick makeup. Can’t you think about the baby?”“I’m already thinking about the baby. I didn’t even use eyeliner.”Yael said in an unpleasant tone, “Besides, if it weren’t for the pregnancy, would my face have grown spots? I’m only trying to cover the
Elle walked up to Yael and slapped her across the face, making half of her face swell up.“Argh, Elle, you b*tch!” Yael screamed. “How dare you hit me? I’ll make your life worse than death. I’m telling you, Shaun Hill isn’t the same as before. If you’re smart, you’d better leave him. Otherwise, I’ll kill you!”“You talk too much.” Elle slapped the other side of her face to make it balanced.Yael’s mouth buzzed. She was in so much pain that she could not speak. She could only look at Chance for help.“That’s enough.”Chance yelled for them to stop. “Eldest Young Master Hill, Yael is right. We already left Liona and have nothing to do with Liona. What are you trying to do now? I worked like a slave for Liona, but now you’re bullying my woman. You can’t be that shameless.”“Shameless?”Shaun smiled as if he had heard a joke. “Chance, you have indeed done a lot for Liona, but Liona hasn’t treated you badly in these years either. From these years, you’ve accumulated at least hundreds
“So it was Yael who colluded with the Campos family, and it was also her who stole the microchip data and framed Liam, right?” Shaun asked aggressively.“I don’t know.” Chance shook his head blankly and painfully.“No, you do know.” Shaun took out the rag in Yael’s mouth.Yael was in so much pain her face was devoid of blood. When she saw the needle in Elle’s hand, her whole body trembled with fear. “N-No, he’s lying. It was Chance who colluded with the Campos family. I’m innocent. Everything was done by Chance. He was bribed by the Campos family.”Chance froze and stared at Yael with wide eyes. He did not expect that the woman he loved would end up pushing all the blame to him.Shaun glanced at Chance and took out Yael’s phone. He opened up her WhatsApp and showed the screen to Chance. “You might not know her well enough. When you were eating together earlier, she was flirting with Ivan Campos.”Chance read the ambiguous and explicit words, his eyes flaring in anger. “Yael, you
Chance was once the leader of Liona, so he quickly understood. “You want me to go undercover to the Campos family?”Shaun nodded. As expected of someone who had followed him for many years. “Chance, think of your family. They’ve been working for the Hill family for generations, and the Hill family has invested so much effort in you. If the Hill family falls, you can leave, but you can’t betray us. According to Liona’s rules, traitors will be executed. Think about it. If it weren’t because of your connivance, would the Hill family fall to where we are today?”Chance was ashamed.Yes, it was because he was infatuated with Yael’s youth and beauty.If not for his connivance, Yael would not have had the opportunity to steal the microchip data from Hill Corporation’s lab. If it were not for him, Yael would not have been able to kill Liam.“Eldest Young Master Hill, I’m sorry. I’m willing to atone.” Chance looked up and said fiercely, “I was blind before and was bewitched by this b*tch,
“This cliff is too high and the waves are too strong. I broke Liam’s leg and beat him until he vomited blood. There’s almost no possibility of survival.”The more Shaun spoke, the more he blamed himself and felt remorseful. He dropped to his knees in front of Brennan and shed tears. He said hoarsely, “Dad, I’m sorry. It was my stupidity that killed Liam.”“No, it’s not all your fault. I’m also responsible for it. If only I hadn’t left back then. Your mother wouldn’t have misunderstood, and Mason wouldn’t have had an opportunity.”Brennan had a grim expression. “Mason Campos is really vicious. Just because I ruined his plan, he went out of his way to acknowledge Liam as his son for more than 20 years. Those 20 years, it was because of this misunderstanding that you and Liam fought all the time. In the end, he finally made you brothers end each other. This was his real purpose.”“Don’t worry, Dad. I’ll definitely destroy Campos Corporation and make Mason pay the price.”At that mome
Did Wesley not mind that his secretary’s perfume was so strong?Honestly, the scent was too artificial. Even if it was from a luxury brand, Catherine did not like it very much.For some reason, she felt that Wesley’s image in her mind was becoming more and more… vulgar.“Cathy, you know that I don’t like to take sweet stuff…” Wesley said hesitantly.“So you’re refusing me?” Catherine pretended to be unhappy. “You said it yourself that it’s rare for me to come see you.”“Okay, okay, okay. Since my wife said so, I’ll have to drink it.” Wesley immediately took the bubble tea from her and gulped it down. “It’s good. Anything my wife brings is sweet.”When he saw that Catherine did not put up resistance when he called her his wife, his heart rejoiced. “Cathy… I didn’t think that… I thought you were still angry at me.”“As I said… I was in the wrong too.” Catherine’s expression revealed embarrassment. “Stop mentioning the past. By the way, do you have a rag? I stepped on something dir
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
