Chapter 2044

Author: Shallow South
In the quiet cafe, Jessica took a big gulp of coffee without saying a word.

It was bitter, so bitter that her heart clenched.

For the first time in these years, someone had dug up her past that she had been cautiously hiding.

Nobody knew that was her biggest pain during her youth.

“No one has made more sacrifices than you have.” Ryan looked at her gently. “Are you really willing to give up the company to someone else?”

“Ryan, how did you learn all these things?” Jessica suddenly asked.

“I learned it long ago.”

Jessica stared fixedly at Ryan for a while before she laughed. “Ryan, has anyone told you that you’re actually scarier than your dad? You were so young back then, but you already had control over many things.”

“Jessica, I’m like you. When I was a child, Grandpa told me that my dad wanted to be the prime minister. Given that I’m his only son, I have to be more alert than anyone else, or I’ll be a drag on my dad.”

Ryan gave a bitter smile, but his gaze was sincere. “I’ve

    Jessica had long since been of considerable standing.She had respected her elders since young. She also obeyed her parents and grandfather. All she needed was some force to push her.The force was Forrest, Sarah, and Rodney.Other people might not understand, but Ryan knew full well that Jason’s most capable child was Jessica and not Rodney. There was nothing Ryan could do other than sigh.It was not his intention to come to this point with Rodney either.However, for the sake of Freya… He did not want to see her live miserably for the rest of her life.As he cared about her, he wanted to protect her and make sure she lived happily. …Two days later, Rodney contacted Freya again.This time, she told him to meet her at the registry office straight away.She was not supposed to leave the hospital at first, but after she applied for a day off, Catherine took her there in a wheelchair.When Freya arrived, Rodney had spent a while waiting at the entrance. He was wearing a cas

    “Freya, don’t force my hand.” Rodney flew into a rage. “I can go that far.”“...I’ve never doubted your cruelty toward me.” Freya felt very powerless. “Are you sure you don’t want to get a divorce today? If you don’t, I might not be so cooperative next time. Honestly, I’m not satisfied. If I see you being lovey-dovey with Sarah one day, I might take it too hard and shamelessly hold on to my identity as your legal wife. In that case, you’ll never get to make it up to Sarah for the rest of your life…”“You…”Rodney looked at the pale woman in the wheelchair whom he once liked. His eyes revealed a hint of melancholy. “Freya, why do you have to go this far? If you hadn’t hurt Sarah, we wouldn’t have ended up like this. Indeed, I used to be in love with you…”“Oh, thanks. I’m really touched.” If Freya continued to listen to what he said, she might throw up. Hence, she said impatiently, “So do you want to get a divorce? Answer me now.”“...Yes.”Rodney looked down and nodded.Catherin

    Rodney’s expression changed all of a sudden. He leaped to his feet and said, “Sarah, something urgent came up, and I need to head to the office. If there’s anything, you can let the carer know.”“Rodney, is it because… something has happened to the company?” Sarah observed his expression nervously.“I’ll handle it. Don’t worry.” After consoling Sarah, he walked some distance away from the ward before he took out his phone.Today’s top searches were [The Successor of Snow Corporation Has an Affair] and [The Prime Minister’s Goddaughter Having a Marital Breakdown].He clicked the searches, only to see photos of him posted by many online media. Those were photos of him entering Sarah’s apartment in the middle of the night, as well as him carrying Sarah to the hospital in a rush the day she was scalded by the hot coffee when she met Freya. There were even records of Sarah’s miscarriage...One of the unknown Facebook users posted a lengthy message online. [According to an insider, Rodn

    Snow Corporation had 12 directors in total. Besides the directors, Jessica, Carson, the general manager, and a few more senior managers participated in the meeting. After Rodney entered, he sat beside Carson. “Carson, why didn’t you pick up my call just now?” Rodney asked. “Did you call me? I didn’t know. Dad called me to the office just now.” Carson took out his phone as he spoke. There was indeed a missed call. “Alright. We’re having a general meeting today for the matters regarding Rodney, who’s in charge of our subsidiary company.”Jason leaned against the back of the leather chair. He exuded the strong aura of someone who was in a high position. His gaze swept across the meeting room and landed on the person concerned, Rodney. “President Snow, although this is your private matter, your actions have gravely impacted the image of Snow Corporation. I hope you can propose a solution to this.”Rodney understood right away. Since Jason mentioned a proposal, it meant he was not

    Rodney’s expression changed upon hearing Carson’s words.He did not expect that Carson wanted to replace his position and that General Manager Quinn had betrayed him. General Manager Quinn was Rodney’s most trusted subordinate. Therefore, he had transferred General Manager Quinn to the alternative energy company to be his employee. Rodney glanced at the people in the meeting room.He saw that Jason was quite shocked, but the other directors did not seem surprised. At that moment, he understood everything.It was a trap. Rodney looked around, and his gaze finally focused on Carson, who did not dare to look at him. Then, he looked at Jessica, who was sitting calmly beside Jason. One of them was his biological brother, while the other was his biological sister.A wave of coldness gradually crept within him. After a moment, Rodney laughed coldly. “It seems like everyone has come prepared. But don’t you think that all of you are exaggerating things? You’re saying that I’m ha

    Jason’s expression hardened. Rodney raised his head and looked at Jessica. “Sister, do you think you can agree to the board of directors’ request yourself?”“Of course,” Jessica replied indifferently. Her deep eyes were like a bottomless well. “President Snow, don’t say that you weren’t given a chance. Now, the board of directors can cast their votes. Those who agree to Rodney’s dismissal, please raise your hands.”“Jessica…” Jason glanced at his daughter beside him in a warning.Director Sands immediately said, “Director Snow, I think Jessica’s idea is great. Let’s vote. Hasn't the company been doing this all along? I’m raising my hand.”Soon, 90 percent of the people in the meeting room raised their hands. The others abstained from voting.Jessica lowered her head and looked at her father. “Dad, look. 90 percent of the directors don’t want Rodney to maintain his position in the subsidiary company. According to the company’s regulations, his position will be revoked. Let’s stop

    Rodney was stunned. Then, his expression changed. “Snowden,” Jessica said that word slowly. “You think you have Snowden under your control, but that’s just your thought. Snowden’s people are obeying you just because I told them to. Grandpa and Dad think that they’re in charge of the Snow family, but that’s not the case. It’s only because I let them think that way. It’s because I respect them and listen to them.”Rodney’s whole body was shaking. He suddenly recalled General Manager Quinn’s betrayal. He thought he could dominate everything, but that was not true.“Is Master Porter your subordinate?” Rodney asked with gritted teeth.“Otherwise, where do you think the photos of you going in and out of the condominium and the photos of Sarah’s proof of miscarriage came from?”Jessica glanced at him resignedly and mockingly. “Rodney, I admit that you’re very clever. However, when you were still playing around with mud, I was already strategizing. This is the difference between us.”

    Carson brushed Rodney’s hands off and left. Rodney stood in the empty meeting room alone. He just went through a divorce yesterday, and he was kicked out of Snow Corporation the next day.Even his relationship with his family was severely impacted.He was in a daze. A month ago, he felt so satisfied as if he was the happiest man in the world.He had a family, a wife, a child, and his career. In his vision, he even predicted that he would enter the top 100 of the global billionaire rankings in the near future. However, he had lost everything.He could not accept reality and smashed the cup. His eyes were bloodshot from anger.…In the director’s office on the top floor.Jessica knocked on the door and entered. Jason stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows expressionlessly with his hands behind his back.“Dad, sorry to have made you wait. I was talking to Rodney in the meeting room just now, so I was delayed.”Her cool voice resounded in the office.Jason turned ar

    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
