Shaun was a bit clumsy when kissing Catherine. However, he soon took an active role and no longer remained a passive kisser.His kiss made Catherine blush and melt. She could not help but sigh deep down. This man was still the same.After kissing her a few times, he soon got the hang of it. He had started to kiss her in a domineering manner as well.However, they were in the playroom, after all. As there were many people outside, she dared not indulge herself in the kiss for too long.She promptly pushed him away and said while panting, “Stop. If someone barges in, we’ll be in trouble.”“Oh.” Gazing at her pretty face, Shaun could not help but gulp. “Cathy, you’re so pretty.”Catherine felt as though her heart was dripping with honey. She lowered her head and poked his chest with a slender finger. “Remember that I’m forever the prettiest person in your heart.”“Mm.” Shaun felt as though something had filled his heart. He could never get enough of this woman. He wished he could b
“Karma?”Catherine scoffed. “If karma were to get back at someone, it should come for the two of you first. You killed your own mother. You then falsified the issue as you didn’t dare acknowledge your biological daughter for the sake of personal gain and wealth. It seems like you both didn’t learn from your mistakes when you were in jail. Instead, you both grew bolder.”Jeffery turned crimson. Although Catherine’s words were humiliating… he had gone too far to turn back now.“Enough. Stop bullsh*tting. What do you mean when you said I didn’t dare acknowledge my biological daughter? You’re my biological daughter. Also, I didn’t kill my mother. Look, the police have released us.”Catherine shifted her eyes to him in frustration. “When I visited you in jail before this, I thought you were remorseful for what you did. I didn’t expect—”“We’re telling the truth,” Sally interrupted her in agitation and burst into tears. “You’re so heartless! We’re your biological parents, yet you don’t
Once Catherine finished speaking, she drew her phone out from her pocket and ended the recording in front of them. With a grin, she said, “Don’t worry, I have this as proof now. If the two of you pass away, I’ll sort out the affairs regarding your passing. If Rebecca’s shares are transferred to you both, I’ll also manage Hill Corporation well.” “...”An eerie silence descended on the parlor for some time. Jeffery and Sally’s faces contorted with rage.“Over my dead body, Catherine Jones!” Sally lost her temper. She felt as though she had shot herself in the foot. “If anything happens to us, it’ll be your fault.” “Don’t take me for an evil person, okay?”Catherine shrugged innocently. “Now that I’m here, I’ll go and visit Rebecca. After all, we’re sisters. I didn’t know she’d die so early. What a blessing.”Hadley was at a loss for words.He wondered if his ears were deceiving him.“Shut… your mouth…” Unable to tolerate Catherine’s behavior, Jeffery tried to slap her on the fa
As Hadley watched Catherine leave, his eyes were full of admiration for her.Jeffery and Sally could go ahead and take the shares of Hill Corporation that Rebecca owned. Since they claimed that Catherine was their biological daughter, there was nothing wrong if she were to manage Hill Corporation on their behalf.“She can dream on! Hill Corporation is ours! She can’t have it! Go away!” Sally was so exasperated that her chest nearly ached. She shot a disapproving look at Hadley.Hadley clicked his tongue and could not be bothered to argue with her.Some people would never understand what shame was.Hill Corporation was theirs?How shameless of her to say that. If Rebecca had not impersonated Sheryl’s daughter and acquired Hill Corporation by force, Hill Corporation would have made a breakthrough in another industry under Shaun’s leadership by now.A few years ago, Jeffery and Sally were so insignificant that destroying them was just as easy as squashing an ant.Apparently, alm
Was it Catherine who got these people to come here?It did not seem to be her doing. No matter how much she hated Rebecca, Catherine would not stoop so low as to disrespect her dead body.Hadley was still glad to witness this incident and was not bothered about who would end up being killed. Nevertheless, he felt the need to act as though he was trying to save the situation. “Hey, who are you guys? This parlor isn’t a place for you guys to mess around. I’ve already called the police,” Hadley said menacingly as he walked in. He covered his face with his hands while acting fearless. However, he was not planning to get involved at all. “Get lost. Don’t be a busybody.” A few tall men blocked him.At that moment, Hadley did not dare move forward anymore.After smashing things for a few minutes, those people left arrogantly. They had tossed Rebecca’s corpse directly at Sally. The wound on the back of her head that had been stitched split apart once more.The sight of it made Hadle
“...”Looking at Shaun’s handsome face, Catherine was too hesitant to tell him that she was about to go out again. “Come down and play with me.” Shaun extended his hand to pull her through the window. “Uh… Shaunny, I just received a call and I have to go out again,” Catherine said reluctantly, “It’s quite important.”Against all her expectations, Shaun did not kick up a fuss. He just blinked his eyes in despair. “More important than me?”His voice was hoarse, and his eyes were red. It felt as though he would be in tears if Catherine said yes.Speechless, Catherine replied with a gentle tone, “Of course, you’re more important, but I can’t stay by your side all the time. Look, there are so many people in our family. I need to make money to support our family and also buy sweets for you.”“You can ask for money from my mommy. She gave birth to me, so it’s right to spend her money. I don’t want to spend your money,” Shaun said seriously after some thought. Deep down, Catherine t
When Shaun lowered his head, Catherine retreated a little with her profile facing him. There were two strands of curly hair framing her fair cheeks, and he had a clear view of her elegantly thin neck as well.All of a sudden, he found his mouth slightly dry. He was tempted to bury his head in her neck and kiss it.“I’ve fastened it.” Catherine looked up out of the blue.When their eyes met, his gaze was burning fiercely.Catherine was stunned for a moment before she poked his thin lips amusedly. “Tell me, what were you thinking just now?”Upset, Shaun bit his lip. He was rather embarrassed, but he answered her honestly, “I wanted to kiss your neck.”“...”Catherine’s face instantly turned crimson as she did not expect him to be so frank.“Why did you have such a thought? I was just fastening the seat belt for you, yet you started to overthink it.” She stared at him with coquettish eyes, which made his heart tickle.Shaun gulped and fixed his eyes on her.Catherine rubbed her
“By the way, officer, my cousin offended quite a lot of people previously…” Catherine interrupted Sally. Then, she bit her tongue before she continued.Sally was filled with resentment. “The cruelest person she ever offended is you.”“Mom…” Catherine’s eyes were red. “Am I your biological daughter or is it Rebecca? Dad and you were injured when you mourned for Rebecca in the hall, so I just want to find out who attacked you. But why do you keep turning against me?”“How can you compare yourself to Rebecca? Rebecca got your dad and me out of jail, yet you were the one who sent us to jail,” Sally responded in a huff.Catherine said righteously, “Would I have done so if you both hadn’t killed Granny? Granny had treated me well since I was young. Between justice and kinship, I had no choice but to pick the former.”“They killed your granny?” The police officer’s eyes became sharp. Her granny was her injured father’s biological mother, was she not?Since he could sink so low as to kil
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
