Just as Suzie said it, Shaun accidentally dropped some noodles from the fork, making a mess on the table.“Stupid,” Suzie scolded. Her tone sounded the same as when Lucas used to mock her.Shaun blinked his eyes. Then, he pouted in Catherine’s direction and started crying. “Cathy, I’m not stupid…”“Alright, you’re not stupid. Shaunny is the smartest.” Catherine quickly hugged his head and secretly swept a glance at Suzie.“Mommy, that was how you taught me, and I learned it right away,” Suzie said as she pouted.“Are you sure you learned it right away?” Lucas roasted her.“...No matter what, seeing Daddy in this state, teaching him is my responsibility.”The corners of Catherine’s mouth twitched. “Enough, you guys should quickly eat. I’ll feed him.”After she spoke, she held the bowl and started feeding Shaun spoon by spoon.Suzie felt aggrieved. “Mom, when I was two years old, you were very strict with me eating by myself.”Lucas rolled his eyes at her. “That’s her husband.
“But I don’t want to… become a fatty. I want to be… handsome. I want you to like me.” Shaun raised his head, his clear eyes looking very serious. Catherine’s pretty face was reflected in his eyes.Catherine’s heart was doused in honey from his gaze.Although Shaun was acting silly now, his hair had been shaved into a crew cut after he got hurt. His chiseled, good-looking face was utterly handsome.In the past, he was very handsome when he had a stern expression. However, his naive look at that moment was very cute too.“Mm, I like you a lot now.” Catherine could not resist it. She lowered her head and kissed Shaun on the lips.Shaun blinked his thick eyelashes. Then, he kissed her back on the lips as well. “Cathy, I like you too…”Although Catherine clearly knew that what he had for her was pure adoration and definitely not romantic feelings, her heart still could not help but start to throb.She lowered her head and kissed him again. “Shaunny, open your mouth.”Shaun was con
Catherine was on the verge of crying.Were the heavens playing a prank on her?“Cathy…” Shaun lowered his head and looked at Catherine. Due to the steam from the hot shower, his dark eyes looked as though he was about to cry.Catherine gazed at his thin, red lips. She suppressed her embarrassment and circled his neck. She kissed him softly. “Good boy. It’s okay. I’m right here…”...After bathing, it was 8:00 p.m.Catherine had made do and bathed with Shaun as well. After changing into a new set of clothes, Shaun lay down on the bed with a satisfied expression. On the other hand, Catherine still felt a little awkward and dumbfounded.She was thinking about whether to call Chester to ask him why the problem of Shaun’s sexual dysfunction had suddenly recovered. However, she thought that such matters were very awkward to talk about, so she just let it slide.After she woke up the next day, she was still in a blur. Shaun came close and kissed her again. “Cathy, I feel uncomfortab
“That’s right. I didn’t expect it either.” After some time, Catherine showed a rueful look.Chester gave her a profound glance. He did not say anything else about that matter and just said, “You should bring him to the andrology unit for a check-up today just in case, so you can confirm whether it’s just temporary or if he has really recovered. I’ll inform Doctor Leonard, who has been following up on his case.”“Thank you.” “No need. Shaun is my friend after all.” A hint of sadness flashed across Chester’s eyes.He and Shaun had known each other for a long time. Shaun was probably the person who knew him the best. He did not expect that things would turn out like this in the end.Catherine saw everything. Even though Chester would not make a good husband or boyfriend, he was absolutely amazing as a brother and a friend....After having lunch in the afternoon, Catherine brought Shaun to the andrology unit.There were not many people around at this time, so they did not have to
“Alright, don’t worry too much.” Doctor Leonard held a fist to his mouth and coughed. He smiled and said, “Your teachings are very precise. You can keep improving them.”“...”Catherine was embarrassed.She yanked Shaun and left the andrology unit with a flushed face.“Cathy, your face is very red.” Shaun looked at her with a dumb expression. “Are you… having a fever…”“No.”Catherine realized that Shaun’s speech ability was improving tremendously. He was way better than other two-year-olds in this aspect. After returning to the ward, Catherine gazed at Shaun with a serious expression. “Shaunny, in the future, you mustn’t say the words I’ve said to you out loud when there are outsiders around, okay?”The reply she got was Shaun’s dazed handsome face.Catherine bit the bullet and gave an example. “For instance, what I said in private about how you can’t let other people take off your pants, the parts that you can’t let others touch except me, or things like I’m the only one wh
“Don’t worry, Lucas. I’ll definitely rescue Suzie.” Catherine could only try her best to console Lucas.Even without Lucas’ reminder, she knew that the kidnapping definitely had something to do with Wesley and Rebecca.She immediately dialed Elle’s number. “Do you know where Wesley and Rebecca are?”“Wesley has gone to Melbourne while Rebecca is in the Costner family’s villa.” Elle had been informed of the incident as well. She was very worried. “I’ve noticed that there are many police and guards at the Costner family’s villa lately. Maybe Prime Minister Snow mobilized them to protect the Costner family after something happened to Matthew.”Catherine’s face was pale.Wesley had gone to Melbourne. Even if she risked everything to catch him, it would be too late.“Elle, ask Hadley to come to the hospital to take care of Shaun. I’ll go to the Costner family’s villa.”Even if it was a lion’s den, Catherine had to capture Rebecca today.“Miss Jones, I’ll go along with you,” Elle sai
The guard was met with silence. He said coldly, “It’s obvious that you’re here to create a ruckus by bringing so many people here. Leave immediately. We have distinguished guests inside. If you want to barge in, then I have no choice but to take my gun out.”There were more than ten security guards behind him.Catherine felt as though her chest was about to burst from anger. However, she could only hold it in. She could not lose her life due to recklessness. If that happened, she would not be able to rescue Suzie. “I want to meet Titus.”“President Costner isn’t here.”“I have to go in today no matter what. I suspect that the people inside kidnapped my child. She’s in danger.” Catherine met the security guard’s gaze with red eyes.The guard frowned. “Our duty is to protect the people inside. I can’t let you go in.”Catherine did not expect the guards of the Costner family’s villa to be so strict.She took a deep breath and restrained herself. She took her phone out and called Ti
“Hit by a car?” Titus narrowed his eyes.“Mm.” When Suzie recalled that incident, fear flashed across her petite face. “It was also because… I wanted to have cake. Then… Then a car came flying… because someone hit it. Luckily, Dad was amazing. He saved Lucas and me…”“Who hit the car?” Titus’ brows were knitted together in a tight frown.“Lucas said it’s Meanie Wesley,” Suzie said angrily, “He’s a bad guy.”“Meanie Wesley?” Titus raised his eyebrows.“Mm.” Suzie nodded her head firmly. Her fists were flying around as she was outraged. “In the past… he was nice to us. But… It was all fake. Hmph, he’s a liar. He even beat Mom up. He also had an affair… Disgusting!”“How does a little kid like you know so much?” Titus asked. “Your dad and mom told you these things?”“Lucas told me.” Suzie pouted. “He’s just older than me by a few minutes, but… he knows just a little bit more than me…”Titus finally understood.Catherine must have given birth to a pair of twins—a boy and a girl. L
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
