“What are you guys talking about?” Freya could not understand them at all. “Are you keeping secrets behind my back?”“Eliza did me a favor a while ago.” Catherine did not say anything specific. She thought that it was better not to reveal the person that Eliza knew. “Let’s order.”The food here was good and special in its own way.Surprisingly, the three women had endless topics to talk about, from clothes to gossip to hobbies.“By the way, there hasn’t been any news about Cindy recently. Has she been blacklisted? She was originally engaged to Chester, but there hasn’t been news about that either,” Freya suddenly asked.The room fell silent, and Eliza brushed her long hair. “I’m not too sure. I haven’t been to the company lately.”“She probably pissed Chester off after she contacted Rebecca awhile ago,” Catherine said. “I heard Shaun mentioned that before Rebecca died, Cindy seemed to have taken the initiative to introduce Titus and Sheryl to Chester’s parents, with Rebecca actin
“Sure.”Catherine agreed.After sitting for 20 minutes or so, Catherine and Eliza left first.It had yet been ten minutes since they left when Rodney came in wearing a white suit. His skin was very fair, and his beautiful eyes and red lips gave him a bewitching presence. Along with his slender legs, he looked just like a noble prince.Although Freya saw this face every day, she still could not help but sigh.He was a man, yet he looked even better than her.Ugh.“Why are you alone? Where’s Catherine?” Rodney looked at the room. It was quite big, and there were three bowls on the table. “You ate with two other people tonight? Who’s the third person? Freya Lynch, you aren’t eating out with another man behind my back, are you?”Freya rolled her eyes at him. “I’d love to, but I’m married to you. What man would be willing to have dinner with me?”“What’s that supposed to mean?” Annoyed, Rodney frowned. “Are you that eager to find a second love?”“All I can say is… the spirit is wi
“Rodney Snow, are you human? You have no conscience at all. You were the one who made me like this.” Freya was pregnant, which happened to be the time she was most easily stimulated. At that moment, her eyes were red with anger, and she lost her rationality.She rushed over and grabbed the paper bags. “You have no right to dispose of things I’ve bought. Get out of my sight.”Then, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, and her face went white. She hurriedly held onto the wall beside her in pain and almost fell down.Rodney, who was shrouded in anger, was also frightened. “W-what’s wrong?”“Get lost.” Freya forced back the pain and glared at him. Just then, she felt something leaking.Even if she had never given birth before, she had done her research on it. In an instant, she panicked. “Oh no. I think my water just broke.”“That… That can’t be.” Rodney was dumbfounded. The due date was still a month away.“I’m going into labor prematurely because you made me angry.” Frey
Freya’s due date was still a month away, but she was now in labor. Catherine was a little doubtful whether the reason was that she went shopping with Freya earlier.If she had known, she would not have asked Freya out today.Once they rushed to the hospital, they happened to bump into Jason and his wife, as well as Nathan, Heidi, and Ryan.Freya had been pushed into the delivery room. Through the door, they heard the pained cries from inside.Catherine and Eliza’s hearts ached at the sound. Freya was fine before they left. Who would have thought she would be in such pain in the blink of an eye? Wendy grabbed her son angrily. “Isn’t she supposed to be due next month? Why did it happen early?”“I… I don’t know.” Rodney mumbled, not daring to meet his mother’s eyes.If she found out that Freya went into premature labor because they quarreled, he might be beaten to death.Catherine blamed herself. “Aunty, it might be my fault. Maybe it’s because I went shopping with Freya in the a
Rodney was too ashamed to lift his head.He also did not understand why he would always say so many unpleasant words and go too far with his actions every time he was with Freya.He did not want it to be like this.Wendy let out a long sigh.Although she gave birth to him, he had been beaten, scolded, and even kicked out of the family before. Why was he still like this?She really did not know what to do. “What’s the use of apologizing to us? You should apologize to Freya instead. You should apologize to her parents and your child. You’d better pray that the child is born safely, and you should beg for Freya to forgive you. Think about it. You two got together because of the child, but you were only forced to get married to keep the Snow family’s reputation. Now that the child is born, it doesn’t seem like Freya will want to be with you anymore.”Those words made Rodney inexplicably upset. “Mom, now that the child is born, how can we get a divorce? It won’t be good for the child.
“Be a good father from now on,” Chester said in a low voice. “It’s not easy for a woman to give birth. Treat her well.”“I will.” Rodney nodded. “I suddenly feel like a different person. I have responsibilities now.”After more than ten minutes, Freya was pushed out of the delivery room. Her little face was pale, and her forehead was still wet. She looked drowsy and weak.Rodney leaned over, and his heart clenched when he saw her. His thin lips moved, and he said, “Freya, are… are you okay?”Freya’s eyelashes fluttered, but she ignored him.Rodney was upset.The nurse pushed the hospital bed to the VIP ward and said, “Young Master Snow, please carry your wife to the bed.”Rodney bent over and was prepared to carry Freya when she opened her eyes and stared at him in hatred. “Don’t touch me.”Rodney’s body stiffened. With so many people watching, he whispered in embarrassment, “How will you get on the bed if I don’t carry you? Freya, don’t be so strong-headed. You’re at your weak
“Did I say I was looking for a second love?” Freya sneered. “It was you who suspected me of going out for dinner with another man behind your back as soon as you entered the door. Rodney, all I did was buy some clothes I liked. I didn’t even spend your money. What gives you the right to give my clothes away to another woman? I’ve had enough with you. I hate you so much.”Every word she said was like a hammer slamming on his heart.If it were in the past, Rodney would have lost his temper immediately.However, seeing her weak appearance after giving birth, his thin lips pursed in distress.Jason looked at the two and felt his head hurt. “Freya, you just gave birth. Let’s not talk about this for now. I think the child should be hungry…”“Yes, she must be hungry. You’ll have to nurse her.” Wendy hurriedly called in the lactation specialist and told everyone to go out, leaving only Catherine and Eliza inside.“Do you really want to get a divorce?” Catherine looked at Freya in worry.
Catherine and Eliza came out together.Rodney bit the bullet and looked at them. “How is she?”“She’s nursing the baby,” Catherine said and then turned to Eliza. “You should head back first. I’ll stay here with Freya tonight.”Eliza nodded at her and the Snow family before leaving.Chester, who had been leaning against the wall, followed her with his long legs. His eyes flashed with a cold glint.Rodney smiled carefully at Catherine. “You don’t have to stay. You can head back too. I’m her husband, so I’ll stay back to accompany her.”Catherine folded her arms across her chest and looked at him. “Young Master Snow, I also want to give you that opportunity, but Freya has just given birth. She gets angry at the sight of you, and you don’t know how to keep your mouth shut either, so I’m worried that you’ll piss her off again. It’d be fine if it were any other time. However, I’m afraid that she’ll faint from anger today.”“I’m not that ignorant,” Rodney muttered in embarrassment. “I
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
