Shaun smiled. “Even if I didn’t call Thomas in for the second trial, the outcome would be the same. Even if the judge felt that I was in the wrong, she would still have to declare that I won in order to bring positive influence to society.”“You’re amazing.” Stevens nodded. He took the gamble and accepted the loss. “I hope there’ll be a chance to go against you again in the future.”Then, he turned to leave, no longer caring about Sarah.Sarah also tried to sneak away, but Shaun noticed her. “Return the money to me within three days, or I’ll have to ask the police to enforce the law. By the way, move out of the seaside villa immediately. I’ll collect the house before dark.”“Shaun Hill, don’t go too far.” Sarah wanted to kill him with her eyes. “You’ve occupied a place that doesn’t belong to you for long enough. It’s time for you to get out.” After that, Shaun walked straight towards Catherine.The trial made him feel even more guilty towards Catherine.Catherine stood up slowl
Catherine smiled. “Actually, I don’t think there’s the need to bother about Sarah’s character. Don’t you love her? In that case, you should be tolerant of all her bad and evil sides. How did that saying go? Love at its highest realm is loving a person as they truly are. Besides, someone has to collect Sarah. What if she harms others if no one takes her? Young Master Snow is the most suitable for her.”“That’s true. Hey, hurry up and go after Sarah. She must be very sad and helpless now. You should comfort her.” Freya gave a thumbs up.As expected of her good sister. Freya’s ability to stab people’s wounds was unparalleled.Rodney was originally very sad, but his handsome face turned red in embarrassment by their rant.“Freya Lynch, that’s enough.” Rodney looked glum.“It is enough.” Freya turned to the side and pulled Eliza. “Didn’t you promise to have dinner with me? Let’s go. Cathy, do you want to join…”“Sure.” Catherine quite liked Eliza and was about to nod when she saw Shau
“Fine, I know you’re right, but that’s between Shaun and me,” Rodney said sullenly.Freya nodded. “You’re right, but I just can't stand how thick-skinned you are.”Thick-skinned Rodney was speechless.If it were him in the past, he would have quarreled with Freya already.Yet now, his thin lips moved, but he silently closed his mouth.When the elevator arrived, he consciously kept up with Shaun and got into Shaun’s car.Freya sat in Eliza’s car.With that, they headed for the restaurant.Along the way, Shaun held Catherine’s hand with one hand while holding the steering wheel with the other. “Cathy, when the 100 billion dollars arrives, I’ll transfer it to you.”“Sure.” Catherine nodded.Shaun’s eyes flashed with a trace of surprise. “I thought it would take some time to convince you to take it.”“You think too much. I’m keeping it for Suzie and Lucas. Who knows what will happen in the future? It’s better for me to leave them more money for their protection,” Catherine said
“Did you forget? I mentioned this previously. What I got in exchange for thinking about your feelings was separation from my wife and children.”Shaun patted him on the shoulder sadly. “After reaching my thirties, I realize that what I want most is a perfect home. Going home to a pair of lovely children and a beautiful wife after work every day is the most wonderful thing in life.”Rodney froze at the words. He used to fantasize about such a life with Sarah, but he was mercilessly thrown a wet blanket.“You won’t understand this feeling,” After that, Shaun strode forward to catch up with Catherine.Rodney was very upset. So what if Shaun had children? So what if Shaun had a wife? He had a child too.Then, he glanced at Freya’s back but saw her walking ahead while holding Eliza’s hand. She did not even spare him a look.… The waiter took the group to the best private room in the restaurant. It was Japanese style, so it required them to take off their shoes, and there was a balco
If… If only he agreed to the Snow family’s arrangement and married her back then.That way, the child would have a complete family, and Freya would not have gotten pregnant before marriage.Unfortunately, there was no cure for regret in this world.Catherine sighed. “Freya is right. She didn’t want to keep the child at first either. It was your sister who threatened her, saying that Lynch Corporation would be suppressed if she aborted the child.”“I’m sorry… I’m really sorry.” Rodney was remorseful. “How about… I marry you? I’ll take responsibility for it. I’ll definitely be good to you and the child in the future.”Although he did not love Freya, he was willing to take responsibility.“In your dreams.” Freya was furious. “Are you worthy of me? You’re just a smelly piece of sh*t that Sarah got tired of playing with. I’m not a garbage bin that collects trash that people throw away.”Hit by Freya’s words, Rodney turned pale and devastated. “That’s enough, Freya. Your words are too
Eliza was wearing a black suit today with her long hair draped over her shoulders. If she were an ordinary woman, she would look dull. However, her facial features were delicate and pretty, and her skin was clear. With the black and white contrast, she looked fashionable, like she belonged in a magazine.Nevertheless, she sipped her tea while looking at her phone. She did not even look at him directly.Chester raised his brows.To protect her, Freya immediately said, “Young Master Jewell, this is my friend Eliza. She’s a big star, but please don’t have any lewd thoughts about her. You’re getting married soon.”Chester chuckled in a low voice. “Miss Lynch, don’t make me seem like a person who gets ideas over the opposite sex anytime and anywhere.”Freya blinked and said innocently, “I didn’t. I just heard that Young Master Jewell has a reputation for being a playboy, so I was a little worried.”“Then you’ve misunderstood me.” Chester glanced at Eliza and smiled. “Most of the time,
Freya took a couple of deep breaths, and Catherine hurriedly said, “Let her try one. One slice is okay.”“Alright. Only one.” Rodney gave her the smallest slice.“It’s none of your goddamn business.” Freya really wanted to explode.“Of course it’s my business. I care about my child.” Rodney said carefully, “Although you don’t acknowledge me, you can’t stop me from caring for the child.”Freya could not be bothered with him and simply washed the sashimi he gave her with cold water again.Rodney’s expression darkened. “I’m not sick.”“I don’t know about that. You’ve stayed with Sarah for so long. Maybe you’re infected with something.”Rodney’s face went red with anger. After a long time, a voice squeezed out of his throat. “I didn’t do anything with Sarah, okay?”“Ahem.” Shaun and the others coughed.Chester gave him an odd look. “You can’t do it too?”“Of course I can.” Rodney bristled. “I’m not the kind of person who messes around with other women. I believe in sex after marr
Eliza’s cold eyes were full of indifference. After waiting quietly for him for a while and noticing that he did not continue his sentence, she continued to eat.Her indifferent attitude made Chester’s eyes turn cold. “Why aren’t you saying anything?”“I don’t know what to say. If I say I don’t want to attract your attention, you’ll call me hypocritical. If I say I do want to attract your attention, you’ll call me cheap.”Eliza ate a slice of fish, chewed it carefully, and swallowed it before saying, “So I should shut up, lest you threaten to shut me out again.”Chester looked at her slow movements, and the undercurrents in the depths of his eyes surged.Freya wanted to speak up for Eliza at first. However, she burst out laughing after hearing Eliza’s words. “That’s true. Men are so senseless sometimes. Let’s eat.”… Halfway through, Chester got up and went to the washroom.When he was washing his hands, Shaun came out from behind. “Hey, you really embarrassed me tonight. Cathy
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
