That was when Charity recalled that she was not dead. Instead, she had re-entered Eliza’s body.She almost lost her life again.“Lizzie, last night… Mr. Jewell has been watching over you.” Skyler suddenly darted a careful glance at the other end of the bed.Only when Eliza turned her face did she notice Chester’s presence.Chester had been here the whole of last night, but he did not expect her to be gentle to him when she woke up. Nevertheless, he never thought she would give him such a frosty look.“Is Young Master Jewell here because he’s worried that I’m still alive?” Eliza asked indifferently with an extremely hoarse voice.Beside her, Skyler was so nervous that her heart skipped a beat. Luckily, Chester was not mad, but his gaze was dark.“Why didn’t you tell me yesterday that you have a fear of water?” Chester asked while staring at Eliza’s ghastly face.“Did you give me a chance to tell you? In fact, have you ever treated me as a human?” Eliza chuckled, but it seemed li
In the Lodge.Freya woke up from a hangover with the sunlight shining through the window.She suddenly sat up, and her head hurt.Was she not drinking with Eliza? Why did she end up here?Was it the next morning already?Freya did not feel good about the situation. She hurriedly put on her clothes and went downstairs. “Aunty Loretta, where’s Dani...”Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Ryan sitting on the couch and carrying Dani in his arms with a milk bottle in his hand. From her chubby face, Dani seemed content with the milk. What a cute baby she was.However, that scene was bizarre.Upon noticing the noise, Ryan lifted his eyes and glanced at Freya. He did not say anything for fear of disturbing Dani.Instead, Aunty Loretta came with a basin of water and explained softly, “Young Master sent you home yesterday. You were drunk, but Dani insisted on having you take care of her, and I couldn’t deal with her alone, so Young Master coaxed her to sleep. This morning, Dan
“Yeah. Her phone is with me.” Chester furtively glanced over at Eliza. “She’s having porridge on the bed.”Having porridge on the bed…His words made her think of something.Within a few seconds, a campy plot flashed in Freya’s mind. Could Chester have taken advantage of Eliza while the two of them were drunk yesterday and that they just only got up? Freya was worried sick. “Chester, you b*stard! What have you done to Eliza?”Her voice was so loud that Eliza heard what she said too. Could not bear with Chester anymore, Eliza extended her hand. “Chester, pass me my phone.”“Beg me.” Chester raised his brows.Eliza had an overwhelming urge to throw the porridge at his face there and then, but she held it in. She must not act on impulse when dealing with people like Chester. Who knew if he would duck her head into the sink?She did not want to go through what she did yesterday.On the other end, Freya insisted on having Eliza answer the call. However, Chester responded, “Eliza
Or could it be that it was Eliza’s first time taking the initiative?To his surprise, he felt his heart racing madly. It was quite interesting. Soon, he turned into an active kisser too.Before he could savor the kiss, Eliza had already left. The romantic sensation was still on his lips. “I’m done. Can I have my phone back?”Chester stared closely at her lips, which were initially pale but had turned pink after the kiss. There were even sparkles in her eyes. The itch in him to do something was very bad. It felt as though it had been scratched and that he could not get enough of it.He even had the thought of pressing her onto the bed regardless.However, he was a rational person. After fixing his eyes on her for a while, he returned the phone to her. “Lizzie, you’re so sweet.”Eliza’s face was void of emotion.Chester pinched her chin. “Don’t you feel shy?”“I think I need to brush my teeth,” Eliza said calmly.Chester’s gaze turned grave, but he soon let out a laugh. “You n
Freya said with a frown, “Eliza must be tired from all the drinking yesterday. She usually says whatever comes to mind, but today she looks listless. Oh, I forgot to ask if she has had her hand bandaged too.” “Hand?” Catherine was puzzled.“When I told Eliza what Sarah did to Charity yesterday, Eliza was so mad that she crushed the wine glass into pieces.” Freya sighed.A glint flashed in Catherine’s eyes. “But she doesn’t know Charity. Why was she so mad?” “Why not? It’s normal for a humane person to be mad when they hear that.”Catherine went silent. If it were her, would she fly into a fit of fury and crush the wine glass into pieces?Of course, it was normal to be angry, but she would probably slap the table or smash the glass. In her opinion, people who did this would be those simmering with anger yet had no way to vent it.“You, too, think that my argument makes sense, right?” Freya said with dissatisfaction, “Sadly, the hot coffee didn’t ruin Sarah’s face yesterday.”“
“I missed her face. What a shame,” Freya teased.“You…” Rodney’s eyes burst with anger. “Are you a human? Where’s your conscience? If you weren’t my wife, I would’ve called the police on you. Also, Sarah keeps telling me not to look into the issue. All she wants is to keep the peace, yet you can’t even let her off.”“In that case, I have to thank you for not having me arrested.” Freya laughed. At that moment, her hatred for Rodney intensified.No matter how protective he was of Sarah back then, Freya would not hate him because it was his choice to love Sarah. However, he should not use his love for Sarah against her.Annoyed, Rodney undid the button on his shirt in front of his chest. “You don’t have to tease me. Ask yourself whether it was right to do what you did yesterday. You almost killed Sarah and ruined her entire life. Not only doesn’t she hate you, but she’s not calling the police either. Why can’t you learn to be generous? Come with me and apologize to Sarah to beg for he
Skyler turned her gaze to where Eliza was looking, only to find a bunch of people walking in and out the door. “Lizzie, what are you looking at?”“I’m looking at how well this hospital is doing.” Eliza averted her eyes.Skyler said with a smile, “All the hospitals are doing well. What’s more, the Jewell family hospital has the best medical skills in Australia.”“I’ll come over tomorrow for IV infusion,” Eliza said, “The doctor said I should have an infusion for three days straight, right?”Skyler was taken aback as Eliza was known for going against the doctor’s instructions. This time, she was probably rather obedient because she was in poor health. “Actually, you can get a family doctor over to your house to perform an IV infusion. After all, you’re a public figure...”“It doesn’t matter. I feel more at ease having it in the hospital.” As Eliza was speaking, she made her way to the door. “You must be exhausted from the past two days. I’ll ask my bodyguard to accompany me to deal
Eliza had already turned into a devil. All she wanted to do was take revenge, and nobody could stop her.…The next day, when Eliza headed to the hospital, she only brought her chauffeur and bodyguard along.She was wearing a pair of shades and a cap. While she was having an IV infusion quietly in the emergency room, Chester entered in a white coat and a stethoscope around his neck.“Are you feeling better?” Chester naturally extended his hand to touch her forehead. Eliza subconsciously dodged his hand, leaving it stiffening in the air. Even so, he did not get angry but smiled. “I’m just checking your temperature as a doctor. You don’t have to be nervous.”“Dr. Jewell, if I’m not mistaken, you’re a leading doctor from the department of internal medicine.” Eliza looked up and reminded him. However, her shades prevented the emotions in her eyes from being seen.“Don’t say that. This hospital is mine, so I have the right to care for all the patients here.” Chester suddenly grabbed
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
