“Who is it?”Shaun glanced at her while driving and could not help but get nervous when he saw her staring at a picture of a woman. “You’re not… getting obsessed with female celebrities again, right?”Then, he comforted himself. Forget it. Her being obsessed with female idols was better than her being obsessed with male idols.“It’s the rising theater star, Eliza Robbins.”Catherine said, “I wanted to see if she could compete against Cindy.”Shaun gave her a complicated look and told her the truth, “You’re talking about the female lead role? She definitely has no chance.”Catherine looked at him gloomily.“Don’t look at me like that.”Shaun felt aggrieved. “You might not know the Jewell family’s power in the entertainment industry. Chester is a major shareholder in the three largest media and film companies. As long as he says the word, not even the most arrogant director will dare to offend him. If they offend him, it’ll be the same as cutting off their livelihood in the enter
Chester usually seemed scrawny while holding the scalpel during the day, but who knew his body would be so perfectly toned once his clothes were off.A sense of infatuation flashed across Cindy’s eyes. She went after him and said, “Chester, I can help you bathe. I know you’re tired, so let me serve you.”Upon hearing it, Chester stopped in his steps and turned his head around to glance at her mockingly. “Cindy, I think you’re… overthinking things.”Cindy’s expression froze.Chester turned around and walked closer to her. Then, he pinched her chin. “When you asked me to marry you, I fulfilled your request. Soon, you’ll become the Young Madam Jewell that everyone admires, but you don’t seem to be content. You even want to win my heart, huh?”Cindy gazed at his god-like, handsome face. She was so infatuated that she could not resist saying, “Chester, I’m really in love with you. I can sacrifice everything for you…” “Really? Why do I feel like I’ve been paving the way for you?” Ches
Cindy broke down. She had cast her dignity aside and tried to fawn on Chester, yet he still despised her so much.It was all Catherine’s doing. As much as Chester disliked Cindy before this, he would never be so offhand with her. Chester only became nastier to her ever since Catherine publicly exposed that Cindy stole her music.Nevertheless, what mattered most right now was making her comeback in the entertainment industry.She was going to marry Chester very soon anyway, and she could ask for his family’s help to deal with him by then.After seeing the light, Cindy said glumly, “Fine. I’ll leave, but Chester, can you… do me a favor?”“...”As Chester looked at her more cynically, she felt increasingly embarrassed. However, she summoned her courage and said, “I’ve seen the script of Director Cheever’s The Belle, and I like it a lot. I want to be the female lead.” “It’s not because you like the script, but because you know Director Cheever is capable of making movies. You sim
Cold and indifferent.Other than seeing her lose control that year they broke up, he had barely seen her like that since then. “Young Master Jewell…” his assistant called.“Yes, so does she have to do with the Neeson family?” Chester asked.“Yup, she actually does.” His assistant continued, “I found out that before Jennifer married Borris, when she and Charity stayed at Geraldton, Eliza was Charity’s only childhood playmate. But after Bories took Charity back to the Neeson family, Charity and Eliza began writing letters to each other. It was when Eliza’s parents got a divorce and her mother took her away that she lost touch with Charity.” Chester lit up a cigarette silently.Deep down, he found it strange. In that case, did Eliza dig up Jennifer and Boris’s ashes and move them away solely because of her childhood friendship with Charity?“When Charity was in jail, did Eliza visit her?”“No.” The assistant shook his head.Chester rubbed his brows.“By the way,” the assistant
Shedrick glimpsed at Chester in surprise.However, all he saw was Chester taking out a cigarette from the cigarette packet and lighting it. From his cold, exquisite brows, it was hard to tell what was on his mind.“Okay.” Shedrick nodded.Shortly after, a tall and slender figure walked in. She was wearing a pair of light blue wide-leg pants, black canvas shoes, and a black T-shirt, which was so short that a large part of her slim and fair waist was exposed. The curves from her waist to her hips could give any man the desire to take control of her.On her head, she had milky brown hair and a white baseball cap over it. Beneath the cap was her pretty, delicate bare face. She looked like she was born to live under the spotlight. She also had very fair skin and a tall nose. Her eyes, in particular, were dark, clear, and sharp. Upon a closer look, they exuded a hazy feeling that made it hard for others to see through. Her eyes first settled on Shedrick before they swept across to Ch
What a bold woman. “Eliza, stop fooling around. Didn’t I make myself clear enough? This is Chester Jewell.”“Oh, really?” Eliza’s brows relaxed. “I assumed the man who fell for Cindy to be ugly and have poor taste. When I saw this elegant and strikingly handsome gentleman, I didn’t dare take him as the rumored Young Master Jewell.”“Eliza…” Shedrick’s face went red with rage.“Did I say something wrong? I just praised Young Master Jewell for his strikingly handsome looks.” Eliza shrugged, looking baffled. “I had never seen Chester before, so I could only imagine his appearance. Since I hate Cindy, I don’t have a good impression of her man either.” Her words left Shedrick exasperated. All he could do was look at Chester fearfully. “I’m sorry, Young Mater Jewell. Eliza… She may be good at acting, but there’s something wrong with her brain.”Anyhow, he wanted to keep Eliza, considering that she was the company’s milch cow. Chester put out the cigarette in the ashtray. When he lift
Shedrick looked abashed. “Our company can arrange another movie for you—”“If you’re not satisfied with this company, you can switch to another one.” Chester interrupted Shedrick and glanced at Eliza sideways with a hint of playfulness. “You want it to be fair, but tell me. Which company in the entertainment industry is perfectly fair? If you’re unhappy with it, feel free to get lost as long as you can afford the compensation for breaching the contract.”Eliza fixed her eyes on his indifferent and cruel face, but she was not put out by his nasty remark.Instead, she nodded after looking into his calm eyes for a moment. “Okay, I’ll pay the fees. I won’t interrupt both of you further.”“Sure.” Chester smiled wanly. “But as you know, the Jewell family occupies half of the entertainment industry. I can easily blacklist you.”Eliza’s body stiffened, and she glared at him.This man in front of her made absolutely no pretense of hiding the hostility in his eyes.Just like that, the atm
Chester took a deep drag at his cigarette and warned Eliza.Eliza stared at his back. Out of his sight, her eyes flamed with hatred.“As far as I know, Charity had very few friends. The only people she knew were Freya and Catherine.” Chester said, “You didn’t even visit her when she was in jail. It makes me wonder how she came to be your friend. You even dug up her parents’ ashes. If you don’t give me an explanation…” He paused for an instant and turned around with a cold gaze. “I could suspect that you’re doing some secret cult activities, and I’ll call the police to arrest you.”Eliza looked at him. “If I tell you that she appeared in my dream and delivered the message to me, will you believe it?” “Do you take me for a fool?” Chester instantly burst into a scornful laugh. Eliza bit her lip. “What I said is true.”She slowly took out an antique pendant from her necklace. “It’s most probably because of this pendant. Charity and I used to live in the same courtyard when we wer
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
