Logan was stunned. “No way.”“It's a woman's intuition,” Catherine said faintly, “I didn’t properly hide the one in the bookcase. It’ll probably be noticed before long. I hope we find something as soon as possible.”Logan nodded.Catherine thought that it would take a while to get a clue, but unexpectedly, Logan sent her something amazing that afternoon.He directly brought his computer over to Catherine and played a video for her to see.Wesley and Regina were entangled on the sofa she had just sat on in the morning, They were being so fierce and crazy that she almost vomited.Was Eugene still the warm and elegant gentleman in her mind? Was this the man who had been in love with her for three years? At that moment, Wesley’s twisted face made her sick.“There are even more exciting ones.”Logan changed the video. It was from the camera she had put in the bedroom.Wesley was holding a whip in his hand while Regina was lying willingly on the bed. The two of them were no differ
Not long after Logan left...Wesley called. “Cathy, I got off work early today. Let’s pick Lucas and Suzie up together. I haven’t spent time with the kids for a long time. Let’s bring them to the playground after dinner later.”Catherine felt creeped out.He had just finished fooling around with Regina yet came down to fawn over her next. This person was too hypocritical. “We can’t today. Shaun is bringing the kids back to the Hill family.”“Cathy, do you want your children to go back to the Hill family?” Wesley was a little disappointed. “What right does he have? Shaun has never done anything for them.”“They want to go, so I can’t stop them.” Catherine sighed deliberately.“Then why don’t we go watch a movie?” Wesley said enthusiastically again. Since Catherine had taken the initiative to bring him bubble tea today, he thought that she wanted to work on this marriage with him.“Sure.”Catherine agreed.Nothing ventured, nothing gained.On the other side, Wesley hung up the
Shaun did not go after the driver because he wanted to protect the kids. Moreover, since the incident took place in public with surveillance cameras around, the police should be able to capture the hit-and-run driver soon.Shortly after someone called the police, the police hurried over and took Shaun’s statement. Meanwhile, Suzie was weeping over the phone with Catherine. “Mommy. Mommy. Boo-hoo…”The minute Catherine heard Suzie cry, she was shocked. “Darling, what’s wrong?”“Mommy, something scary happened. Just now, a car sped toward Lucas and me, and we almost died. Luckily, our scummy dad pulled us out of the car.” Suzie could not stop sobbing.Her words sent a chill down Catherine’s spine. “Where are you guys? I’ll be there right away. Pass the phone to your dad.”“Scummy dad is speaking to the police now. We’re at the place where you bought me the cake earlier.” As Suzie was speaking, she began to bawl, which made Catherine overwrought.“Don’t be scared, darling. I’ll be
Upon reading the message, Catherine felt as if her head had exploded.Her children were so young, yet they were already being targeted.They were lucky today, but what about tomorrow?Catherine was so furious that she shifted her eyes to Shaun. “I was wrong. I shouldn’t have let the kids be with you. Shaun, you truly are a plague and troublemaker. You’re forever my nemesis. Not only have you hurt me, but you’re also planning to hurt the kids now. Why am I so unlucky to have met you?” Her words were like an awl that pierced through Shaun’s heart.His heart clenched in pain. He said reluctantly, “The Campos family is not the one who wants to hurt Suzie and Lucas.”Catherine scoffed. “You just said that Chance has been spying on the Campos family. If it wasn’t the Campos family’s doing, how would he have known the truth?”“Chance said that Mason has a mysterious follower who has been assisting him with a lot of shady dealings. That man has a bunch of murderers from Neah Bay under
Would someone be so cruel as to hurt the kids as well?What more, Wesley had watched Suzie and Lucas grow up. “Do you have any support for this?” Catherine asked with much difficulty after a while.“No.”Shaun shook his head candidly. “Considering that Chance has just entered the Campos family not long ago, it’s good enough for him to obtain so much news. He can’t be too aggressive, or he’ll be suspected. I suspect Wesley because he has been invited to all kinds of Campos family events in recent years, including Charlie’s wedding. Wesley might be like any other guest, but don’t forget that he’s an outsider with no influential background. He’s who he is today most likely because he has been secretly working for the Campos family.”“...”Catherine felt as if her head had exploded.She had just watched the video of Wesley having an affair with Regina in the afternoon, and now, she was suspecting him of colluding with the Campos family.“Besides, Wesley has a hidden agenda.”Shau
“I can divorce him if I want, but… not now.” Catherine gazed out of the window as soon as she finished speaking.It would be fine with Shaun if she trusted Wesley, but what annoyed Shaun was that she refused to divorce Wesley despite suspecting him. She did not seem to care about her life at all. “Catherine Jones, why won’t you listen to me?” “Why must I listen to you?” Catherine asked him nonchalantly. “All you have to do is look after the kids. You don’t have to bother about my affairs.”“You’re the woman I love. Who’s going to care about you if I don’t?”Shaun instantly stopped the car at the roadside. Then, he moved her body closer to his and caressed her snowy-white face straight away. He made no pretense of hiding the domineering concern in his eyes. “You just don’t know how hypocritical and terrifying Wesley is. Are you assuming he won’t harm you just because he loves you? You’re wrong. Since he could bring himself to kill the kids, there’s nothing in the world that he’s af
Lucifer’s death earlier had to be related to Sarah. The thing was Lucifer was killed by a murderer from Neah Bay although the Campos family did not have a grudge against him. In this case, it was very likely that Sarah had the backing of the Campos family or their mysterious follower. At this point, Shaun suspected that the mysterious follower was Wesley.If this was true, Wesley was probably in contact with Sarah.All of a sudden, it struck Catherine that someone threw Logan and Sarah into a cave when Sarah was kidnapped the last time.At that time, Catherine wondered how Logan’s presence was discovered. After all, he was her right-hand man, and he had always been very secretive.Previously, she was under the impression that Logan was discovered because a reporter had captured his back at the pub.If her assumption was wrong, it would mean that Wesley was the one who willfully revealed Logan’s whereabouts.Later, when it came to filing a lawsuit against Shaun, the odds of winn
“Don’t worry. We’ll reinvestigate the incident from scratch.”Upon hearing Shaun’s words, Officer Wise nodded seriously. If the driver had the intention of killing the kids, he would not allow such a devil to exist. …Ever since Catherine walked out of the police station, there was a sullen look on her face. Afraid that she would lose her temper, Shaun explained to her, “Sorry, Cathy. I can’t show the police the warning message Chance sent to me as it could raise the alarm. With the Campos family’s current wealth and power, we won’t be able to defeat them if we don’t have enough evidence. We can’t expose Chance, or Liam’s death would be in vain.”“I understand. I’m not as stupid as you think.” Catherine could not help but say impatiently, “I don’t think the police will find out anything even if they continue to investigate it.”Shaun raised his brows. “Not necessarily. Even if the police can’t hunt down the mastermind, it can trigger conflict within the Campos family. Think about
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
