Not long after, the netizens dug up Jacob’s past. He was Eliza’s biological father, but he liked gambling and drinking ever since Eliza was young.

    In the ward.Eliza finally regained consciousness.She first saw Hailey and Leanne. However, Hailey was very busy. She kept making phone calls with her back facing Eliza.“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. It most probably has to be postponed to next month due to Eliza’s injury… If you’re in a rush, you can switch to another artist. Or you can wait for Eliza…”“You’ve finally woken up. I was scared to death.” Leanne saw Eliza first. Her eyes lit up.Hailey turned her head too. She hung up after speaking a few more sentences and looked at Eliza. She sighed. “Your injury is really giving me a headache.”“I’m sorry, Hailey,” Eliza apologized weakly. “I most probably can’t join the production of The Belle. And there are still two commercials and three events that I was scheduled to attend this month.”“The people from the commercials and events called. One of them is more urgent, so I rejected it. We have to pay the damages for the breach of contract as well. The others said they’re will

    “Get some rest. Let Leanne stay here and take care of you. I still have to manage your matters. There’s a bunch of reporters outside,” Hailey said, “By the way, how should we deal with your father’s matter?”“How is the media reporting on things?” Eliza asked.“Luckily, they already dug out information on Jacob and his family. They even contacted many people who are familiar with Jacob and his family to give statements. Anyway, the outsiders already know that they’re a family of vampires. The public sympathizes with you a lot now.”Eliza gave it some thought and said, “Reveal the name of Jacob’s neighborhood and the address of his son’s company. Also, find a lawyer to get back the money I gave Jacob before. At the same time, sue Jacob. Since he injured me, he should go to jail.”Hailey glanced at her in surprise.“What?” Eliza asked.“Nothing,” Hailey said with complicated feelings, “I just think that you’ve changed quite a lot now. You used to be soft-hearted and kept caring abo

    Eliza laughed.Chester did not think it was a happy laugh. “What are you laughing at?”“Ah, you sound like those campy bossy presidents in dramas that I’ve acted in before. Like ‘Woman, I’m interested in you,’ or ‘Woman, I’ve fallen for you.’” Eliza’s slightly pale lips lifted. “But those bossy presidents are wooing their wives while you’re wooing a mistress. Also, you’re doing it so obviously. I don’t know whether to compliment you for being thick-skinned or shameless.”Chester’s handsome face turned as dark as the bottom of a pan. “Eliza, I just helped you, yet you’re humiliating me now. How many times have you humiliated me, huh?”No woman had humiliated him multiple times yet escape unscathed. “I’m not humiliating you. What I said is true.” Eliza shrugged. “If you think my honest words are humiliating, I can’t do anything about it.”“Eliza, you… Do you think that I don’t dare to do anything to you?” Chester grabbed her wrist. Just as he yanked it, Eliza sucked in a breath fr

    Catherine frowned. She placed the supplements she brought on the bedside table. “Chester is a good friend, but if he’s to be a husband or a boyfriend, I think anyone who falls in love with him will be unlucky. He’s not a person who’ll remain loyal to any woman.”Freya said, “But hasn’t he already decided to marry Cindy?”“Do you think… Cindy can handle him?” Catherine raised her eyebrows. “If she could, Chester wouldn’t be marrying her.”“Don’t worry, I never had the thought of being together with him.” Eliza raised her head and smiled weakly. “I understand that he just has a temporary interest in me. Nothing will come out of this even after he gets to have me. Moreover, I don’t like him at all.”“Don’t worry. I believe Eliza is a cool-headed person. I didn’t understand why Chester kept targeting you during the meal last time, but now I understand. Chester must’ve been annoyed because he couldn’t get you,” Freya said with a smile.Eliza grinned and switched the topic. “I didn’t ex

    “She’s the patient I rescued myself. I like to be responsible for a patient till the end,” Chester replied with a calm gaze.Freya mocked him, “It seems like you don’t just want to be responsible for her injury till the end, though. Right?”“I think you guys haven’t known each other for a long time. It’s better to not meddle in some things.” Chester glanced at Freya calmly.Freya was furious. She had always been a person who could not hold in her anger. She said right away, “Even if we haven’t known each other for a long time, Eliza is still our friend. Allow me to be honest. You’re already about to marry Cindy, so don’t disturb Eliza anymore. She’s a good lady. She’s not those women that you’re used to toying around with.”“You both aren’t people of the same world,” Catherine spoke as well, “I believe she doesn’t desire anything you have. If you want to play, you can. You should find the people who want the things you have. Moreover, Cindy isn’t a person to be offended. If she fin

    “What are you thinking about?” Chester suddenly looked at Eliza, a trace of a smile flashing across his eyes.“What could I possibly be thinking? I just want you to do this faster.” Eliza turned her head away coldly.“These things can’t be done quickly,” Chester said.“...”Leanne’s whole face was red as she stood at the side. She wanted to think purely, but those two people’s erotic words made her unable to think pure thoughts.In the end, Eliza could not tolerate it anymore. “Is your hospital short of nurses? Why does a doctor like yourself have to do such a trivial thing like inserting a needle?”“The nurses’ skills are not as good as mine. I’m afraid they’ll prick and hurt you.” Chester’s handsome lips lifted into a sexy smile. It was utterly charming.However, Eliza did not waver at all. “It’s alright, I’m not afraid of the pain.”“But my heart will ache for you,” Chester said with a smile.Eliza sneered. She was used to that. When that man wanted to have a woman, he coul

    “Did you miss me?” Shaun held her slender waist. His eyes and brows looked gentle. “There’s been quite a lot of matters going on recently. I can’t get off work at set times like other employees.”“I don’t really miss you because I see you every day anyway… Ow…” As Catherine was talking, she got pinched hard on the waist.She glared at Shaun in anger. “What are you doing?”“You dared to say you didn’t miss me,” Shaun said with a tone of punishment.“I see you every night. Why do I have to miss you?” Catherine pouted. She had basically moved into the Hill family’s manor. That place was huge anyway. She and the children had a house to themselves, so she did not need to be afraid of feeling awkward whenever she faced the Hill family’s elderly for not being divorced yet.“But even if I get to see you every day, I still miss you.” As Shaun spoke, he raised her chin lightly and was about to kiss her.Catherine avoided him quickly. “Don’t mess around. I came to find you for a problem.”

    “Shaun, I can’t be bothered to care about you anymore,” Catherine said angrily, “From how I see it, you don’t understand your friend at all. You’d better give him some advice. He’s about to get married. If he has any needs, he can just look for Cindy. There’s no need to pester Eliza.”She left immediately after speaking.Shaun’s scalp tingled. Women’s moods were as unpredictable as the summer weather.He had no choice but to chase after her. “Alright, Cathy. Don’t be angry. I said the wrong thing just now. I’ll find Chester later and ask about the situation, okay? Also, don’t include me in this situation. I only have you in my heart now.”Catherine gave him a sidelong glance. “Shaun, you’re a man. Men have their own understanding and way of thinking. However, I’m absolutely sure that Eliza isn’t that type of person. Besides, a smart woman wouldn’t choose to do that. She’s extremely popular now. If news goes out and the public finds out that she’s involved in other people’s marriage

    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
