Logan shook his head. “I’m not sure. We’ll have to ask Miss Jones about this. However, Miss Jones mentioned before that she wanted to use this evidence to threaten Wesley for a divorce. That’s why I haven’t taken it out yet. We’ll wait until she wakes up to make decisions.”Only then Shaun did understand.Cathy was more intelligent than he expected.It was just that she underestimated Wesley’s slyness in the end. … 12:00 p.m.Catherine woke up blurrily because she was hungry. Her stomach was growling, and it was uncomfortable.“Are you hungry? I prepared some millet porridge for you.”Shaun hurriedly helped her up. He let her lean on his chest. He held a bowl in one hand while feeding her with a spoon using the other hand.Catherine moved her mouth slightly. Her whole face was burning in pain.“Your face muscles are bruised. The doctor said it’ll need a week at least to recover,” Shaun explained to her softly.“Mm.”After enduring the pain and having half a bowl of the mi
“...” Having been insulted, Shaun was not in a good mood at all. After a long while, he forced out a sentence through his clenched teeth. “Cathy, that was not what you said when you were clinging onto me tightly last night. You said I…”“Alright. Just shut up.”Catherine could not hold it in anymore and cut him off. She was irrational at that time, so she must have said a lot of shameless words.“Fine. Let’s not talk about this. I’ll show you a video.”Shaun played Wesley’s video for her.Besides some anger on her face in the start, Catherine got calmer toward the end. It was not surprising to see Wesley pull this stunt after she had seen his shameless side.She just felt frustrated and annoyed that she got married to such a person.Especially in the past, she even praised Wesley in front of Shaun multiple times. She said Wesley was the person truly worthy of her to entrust herself to and treasure. She literally shot herself in the foot. Her pride and image were gone, and
Shaun, who was mercilessly stabbed in the heart again, lowered his eyes sadly. His thick, dark eyelashes trembled. His handsome face looked sad, lonely, and aggrieved. He felt so attacked that his face drained of color, and he looked very pitiful.He moved his body and let go of Catherine, letting her lie on the bed.Catherine was stunned. Seeing his sad look suddenly made her regret it. Even if she was joking, was it too much?“Ahem… Shaun, you…”“Cathy, I didn’t expect you would say those kinds of words.” Shaun put both his hands by her ears all of a sudden. His good-looking lips suddenly lifted creepily. “In that case, I can only use actions to prove my ability to give you pleasure.”“...”His change of expressions caught Catherine off guard and made her dumbfounded. When she came back to her senses, she quickly covered his mouth in frustration. “Shaun, will you stop that? Can’t you see that I’m still hospitalized?”“You were the one who challenged me again and again. Altho
“What are you doing?” Catherine was a little dumbfounded.“Giving you a bath, of course. Do you have the strength to wash yourself?” Shaun rolled up his sleeves casually.“...Get out.” Catherine was annoyed and wanted to push him. However, her legs went weak after a few steps, and she fell straight into his arms.“Ahem. I won’t actually go out, but you didn’t have to throw yourself at me like this.” Shaun smiled roguishly.Catherine was so angry that her face began to hurt.In the end, Shaun helped her take a bath and dressed her in clean clothes before carrying her out.During the whole process, Catherine felt fortunate that her face was swollen. Otherwise, her face would definitely burst from all the blushing.After going out, Shaun’s phone rang. It was from Lucas and Suzie. The two children were so worried that they did not sleep last night.Suzie said, “Scummy dad, how’s Mommy? Where are you now? I’m worried about Mommy.”Lucas chimed in too. “We want to see Mommy. Where a
“Shaun Hill, would you like to be beaten up?”Catherine was so angry that her lungs were about to explode. She did not know how she got the strength to, but she grabbed the bouquet of flowers by the side and smashed it on his head.Shaun covered his head from the assault and hurriedly dodged backward.Chester came in just in time to see this scene and raised his brows teasingly. “It seems you’re recovering quickly.”Catherine gloomily took a few deep breaths and used the quilt to cover her face.“What’s up with her?” Seeing her like this made Chester look at Shaun curiously.It was like he saw a ghost. Shaun was clearly beaten, yet his smile was amorous and sweet, as if he just ate honey. “Did a few screws in your head loosen because of the beating?” Chester mocked in exasperation.“A superficial and feminine guy like you wouldn’t understand.” Shaun glanced at him with disdain.Chester was speechless. He would not understand? He had dated more women than his fingers could c
Catherine was also choked by his words. After a moment, she said, “Three years ago, I told you that Rebecca was pretending to be Shelley…”Chester interrupted her. “But we did a DNA test. The one who died was Shelley. Catherine, I know you and Charity had a good relationship, but no one in the Neeson family is simple. You shouldn’t just think about clearing her name.”Catherine was immediately annoyed by his attitude. “Previously, you said that Sarah was simple and kind and that Charity always bullied her. Now that you have a clear understanding of Sarah’s true colors, do you think Charity could’ve bullied her? Didn’t you see I was bullied by Sarah so badly that I almost committed suicide? You now know that you misunderstood me back then, so has it never crossed your mind that Charity was the old me?”Chester was stunned by her words.Shaun quickly agreed like a sycophant. “Cathy, you’re absolutely right. Your words have really woken me up. We were too prejudiced against Charity in
The more Shaun listened, the more shocked he was.He could not help but sigh. Mason was truly sinister and cruel. Perhaps he was already targeted by Mason when he went to Melbourne. Mason had been secretly planning everything one step at a time.He even saw through Wesley’s ambition and took the opportunity to win him over. They were both very shrewd people, so both Catherine and Shaun were tricked.“Cathy, I’m sorry. If only I had trusted you a little more back then. We wouldn’t have ended up this way today.”“No, we would still end up like this because Sarah appeared. At that time, I thought about it. If you could care so much about Sarah’s cousin, what if Sarah appeared? What I’m most afraid of still happened in the end. I was completely defeated.”Catherine said helplessly, “Before Sarah hypnotized you, you took me to a banquet. I was isolated and humiliated by your brothers, but you never took my side. All of you unconditionally favored Sarah, and your friends didn’t accept
I was wrong about you?However, it was useless. The lost life would never come back.… In the ward.Catherine did not say a word. Pain was written all over her beautiful little face.Shaun carefully peeled oranges on the side. He understood that Charity was a wound for her.Now, no apology would be useful. The damage was already done, so he could only make up for it."Cathy, you and I will dig out the truth of that year so that the real culprits can be punished by law." Shaun peeled a slice of orange and gave it to her.“I have no appetite,” Catherine said faintly. “I didn’t say all that just to blame you. I blame myself too. If I had been smarter back then, I wouldn’t have let Wesley frame Charity. I even got married to the person who hurt my friend.”“It’s not your fault. Wesley is too hypocritical. I even used to think of him as a loser.”Shaun mocked himself while comforting her.For the next two days, Catherine stayed in the hospital.She did not read the news on her
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
