“It’s because of your sweet kiss,” Rodney said while grinning.By the time Freya and Rodney finished their breakfast, it was already late. Freya decided not to go to work. She would stay home to accompany Dani.Rodney had to go to the office for a meeting. About ten minutes after he drove away, he came back with a pack of pills. “About that… We didn’t use protection last night. Considering that you’ve just given birth, it’s not good for you to get pregnant again now, so take these pills. Later in the afternoon, I’ll… buy some condoms. Then, you won’t have to take the pills anymore.”Freya glanced at him before she took the pills. Her face was slightly flushed. “Why are you going to buy condoms? Did I agree to it? What’s more… I’m exhausted today.”“I know. I didn’t say that I wanted to do it tonight. We can keep them at home.” Rodney shot her a pensive look before he left.He was elated as he made his way to the office. If it had not been for Freya’s reputation, he would have sh
“I’m afraid I misunderstood. After all… you’re not a romantic person.” Freya put on the watch, which made her hand look exquisite.Although she already had a watch, she would not mind having a few more nice accessories, especially when it was Rodney who gave her the surprise.“This probably… cost millions of dollars.” Freya asked sympathetically, “You bought me quite a lot of things from Melbourne last time too. Do you still have so much money to spend?”“Don’t doubt my ability to make money. I might not be as outstanding as Shaun, but I’m not that incompetent.”Rodney hugged and kissed her. “Do you like it?”“Yes.” Freya nodded. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed him back. With a soft voice, she said with some embarrassment, “Tonight… I’ll wait for you.”Rodney’s nose almost bled at that moment.The next day, Freya woke up and received a pair of pretty diamond earrings, which were not available in the local market yet.On the third day, she received a diamond ring.She compl
“Alright. Drop it.” Catherine looked at Freya seriously. “Anyway, as your friend, I’m glad to see that you’ve settled down in your life. It’s good that you’re moving on from the past.”Freya was momentarily stunned. Then, she nodded.Her darkest moment in life was when Thomas hurt her. She thought that she would never get to live a blissful life after that.…The minute Catherine walked out of the office building, Shaun got out of the car and opened the passenger door for her.Catherine rolled her eyes at him. She pulled the rear door open and got in while ignoring him.When a gust of cold wind blew past him, Shaun was frozen to the spot. His scalp instantly turned numb.He then got in the car and asked, “What’s wrong, Cathy?”Catherine stared at his handsome face coldly without saying anything.“... Did I do something wrong?” Shaun reflected on himself with a confused look. “Is it because… I hurt you last night?”At the mention of the matter, Catherine was annoyed and ashame
“Why are you in a rush? It’s not as if you’ve never gotten married before. There’s nothing to be jealous of.” Catherine fiddled with her fingers. “Let’s wait until Chester gets married. He’s your buddy. If you’re also married, he’ll be lonely and it’ll look pathetic.”Shaun felt helpless. “He’s not pathetic. He’s not planning on getting married either.”“How can it be? Didn’t he want to marry Cindy before this?” Catherine lifted a finger to his lips, and her gaze was seductive. “What’s more, if I get bored of you one day, I can easily break up with you.”“...”Was this something she should say?“Cathy, don’t you love me?” Frowning, Shaun asked with mixed feelings.“I love you now, but I can’t guarantee that I’ll love you forever. It depends on your performance.” Catherine beamed and flashed a charming smile at him.Her expression was cute yet exasperating.As much as Shaun had the urge to punch her, he did not have the guts to do it.He could only blame himself for being extre
“How cold! But it’s fine. Even so, I miss you.”As soon as Freya heard Rodney’s flirtatious voice on the other end, her face flushed.“I’ll stop here. I need to carry on with my work.”She hurriedly hung up.Rodney smirked, knowing that she must have gotten shy.He was very familiar with her shy side, especially on the bed...At the mere thought of it, he felt a burning sensation. He could not help but grumble about Young Master Wooten’s birthday. Why did Young Master Wooten invite him? It was because of this that he could not do it with his wife at home tonight.…At 6:00 p.m., Rodney drove to the restaurant where the party was being held.When he arrived, he realized that nobody else was there except for Young Master Wooten.“Just the two of us?” Rodney was dumbfounded. He thought that he had come to the wrong place.“What’s wrong? Why can’t it just be the two of us on my birthday?” Rory Wooten grinned as he poured a cup of coffee for Rodney.“No. This is just untypical o
What did Sarah mean to Rodney?She used to be his most wonderful crush and first love. After that, she became the humiliation of his life. She was the one who trampled on his pride underneath her feet. Moreover, his ten fingers were not enough to count the evil things that Sarah had done.When she saw Rodney, she was flustered and wanted to turn around to leave. Rory quickly stood up and grabbed her. “Sarah, don’t go.”“You’ve got the wrong person.” Sarah lowered her head and avoided eye contact with him. “I recognized you when I came here to eat last time.” Rory pulled her to a chair and pressed down on her to force her to sit down. Rodney’s handsome face showed a cold expression. “Rory, what do you mean by this?”“Young Master Rodney, I just happened to see her here last time. I never thought she would end up being a waitress. It’s too terrible.” Rory often saw Rodney defending Sarah back then. He witnessed for himself how well Rodney treated Sarah. He did not think Rodne
The thunder rumbled. Sarah was only acting with President Yard back then?Those harsh words that she said were to make him break up with her?She did that to let him mend his relationship with his parents?Rodney felt his brain getting overwhelmed. He almost believed it. Rodney’s heart calmed down again in an instant when he thought of the times Sarah made Shaun lose his memories and the ambiguous relationship she had with Wesley.“Enough, Rory. I don’t know what she told you, but I won’t believe it,” Rodney said hatefully, “I’ve witnessed how important power, money, and benefits are for this woman.”“If I’m lying to you, I’ll be struck by lightning.”Rory swore. “If you don’t believe me, you can ask President Yard. I met President Yard during a business banquet once. He said that Sarah previously treated his mother and cured her. He owed Sarah a favor, so he agreed to put on a performance with her. To be honest, if she were that kind of woman, I wouldn’t even let you meet
“Alright, don’t work here anymore. Switch to another job.” Rory looked at Rodney as he asked, “What do you think?”Rodney frowned. He said, “She has nothing to do with me anymore.”Sarah gave a small smile but still looked depressed. “I’m fine with working here. Although it’s a bit tough, this kind of life makes me feel more down to earth.”After she finished speaking, she left without even turning her head back. Rodney sat at the table with a cold expression.His good mood was utterly ruined.He took out his phone, wanting to call Shaun to tell him about Sarah.However, Rodney suddenly recalled Rory’s words. Rory said that Sarah found President Yard to agitate Rodney on purpose and make him leave her. She did that so he could reconcile with his parents. It was true that after Sarah hurt Rodney, he realized his mistakes and returned to the Snow family. As Uncle Nathan had become the prime minister, Rodney’s status changed as well.If it was really true, then he would not hav
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
