Upon hearing Grady’s confident tone, Sarah was not too panicked anymore. “I just don’t want you to make a huge fuss of things because of me. Your family might resent me for that. Let’s stop talking and head to the airport first.”Both of them went downstairs in a hurry.When they stepped out of the elevator, Mr. Lake immediately went up to block them. “I just received Young Master Snow’s call. He said not to let you leave the villa with any items.”“That’s ridiculous. We’re already divorced, and the whole villa is mine. What right does he have to stop me?” Sarah kept hinting at Aunty Celine with her eyes while she spoke. Aunty Celine trembled and lowered her head to look at the floor as if she saw nothing. Sarah was exasperated. “Grady, ignore him. Let’s go.”The moment Grady pushed her wheelchair, Mr. Lake immediately stood right in front of them. “Get lost.” Grady and Mr. Lake started shoving each other.Sarah got more anxious as she watched and said impatiently, “Mr. Lake
Rodney could not believe it.He was fine with other people scolding him that way. However, not Sarah.Rodney had lost his marriage for her sake. He could not even have his child by his side.He even lost his position to Snow Corporation’s heir, the love of his father and elders, his reputation, and even his child. All of that for Sarah to accuse Rodney of being selfish?Ha…Rodney gazed at the crying woman before him. She looked almost the same as she was in the past. Back then, he might have felt guilty. However, at that moment, it felt as if he was getting to know her all over again.It turned out that a person’s tears could be so pretentious and fake. How blind was he in the past for him to sympathize and pity her?“Even if I didn’t f*cking love you, I gave you money to go for plastic surgery and medical treatments. I fulfilled everything you wanted. I even lost everything for your sake. Yet, you’re blaming me.”Rodney pointed furiously at Sarah’s nose. “You said you h
“No.” Sarah grabbed Grady’s sleeve instinctively. She was afraid, afraid that Rodney would raise his hand against her. After all, his previous slap hurt a lot.“How dare you place my woman on house arrest?” Grady squinted his eyes.Rodney did not say a word. He simply clapped his hands, and a few bodyguards with towering figures soon walked in from outside. Seeing Grady and Sarah’s hardened expressions, Rodney laughed coldly. “I may not be who I used to be, but I’m not so bad that I can’t handle a rich overseas kid and a woman. Either you two give me an answer today, or Sarah remains.”Sarah was so scared that she clung to Grady and whispered, “Grady, let’s talk.”Grady raised his eyebrows and walked to the side with her.Sarah quickly whispered, “Grady, I can’t stay behind today. Didn’t you see his hatred for me? If I stay back, I’ll definitely get beaten to death.”“What do we do?” Grady asked nervously.“...”Sarah scolded him stupid in her head. However, she said weakly,
Sarah was furious and did not want to tolerate it any longer. “Have you spoken enough? I won’t give you the money. Didn’t you want an answer? Since I’ve given it to you, can you let us go now?”She finally revealed her true colors, and Rodney completely saw through her.That woman really did do it for the money. Rodney kicked a chair in front of him out of anger. Then, he questioned again grimly, “Sarah, let me ask you this for the last time. You hurt me and deceived me. Are you really not going to return the money?”“No. It’s written clearly in the agreement that this is my alimony after the divorce. Rodney, at any rate, it was my first marriage. For your second marriage, you had it good marrying me.” Having stopped pretending, Sarah said bluntly, “Besides, you made me lose the right to be a mother. It’s only natural that you should compensate me.”“Was I the one who made you lose the right to be a mother? It was clearly–”“Wasn’t it you who got me pregnant?” Sarah immediately
Grady’s voice slowly faded as he was brought out of the villa.He could still hear Sarah’s shrill screams from upstairs when he left. “Get lost.” A bodyguard chased him out of the door and warned him viciously, “Our young master is tolerant enough to not kill you out of respect for your family. Don’t test his limits anymore. After all, this is Australia. If you push him to his limits, he can make a person disappear no matter who that person is.”After Grady was thrown on the ground, he stood up while scolding, “Wait. Just wait and see.”Having warned them without much confidence, he ran away. When those people were no longer in sight, the fear on Grady’s face disappeared. He took out his phone and called Catherine. “Miss Jones, I’ve put on a professional performance for your sake. Even the best male actor of the Oscars owes me an award.”“You did well, best male actor, Grady Yeager.”Catherine held back her laughter as she asked curiously, “You’re really giving your all. I hea
The police officers were all stunned.As the police of Canberra, they would take note of the few figures from the Snow family on TV and their phones.From those photos, Rodney looked handsome. His attractive appearance and physique could easily beat any other young man in the entertainment circle.However, who could believe now that the brutal man was once the most brilliant successor in the Snow family?Indeed… This was terrifying.“S-Save me.”Sarah desperately crawled toward a police officer and tugged at the bottom of his trousers. Then, she passed out, no longer able to hold on. The police officers were astounded. They called the ambulance and brought Rodney into the police car.For Rodney, it was his second time entering the police station today.Nevertheless, he was fully prepared. After getting in the car, he phoned his attorney and sorted out the payment.At the police station, the commissioner’s head hurt as soon as he saw that Rodney was here again.Rodney appear
...In the evening.Freya, who had been occupied with work the whole day, just stepped into the dining room of The Lodge when she heard Nathan losing his temper. “I’ve long since told you to keep an eye on him. And now, great. Look at all the trouble he has been causing me every day.“Does he think that the Snow family hasn’t been humiliated enough in Canberra?“He’s in his 30s. Yet, he was still fooled by a woman. If I were him, I would’ve gotten a rope and hung myself.“He has the audacity to act so unscrupulously just because he’s related to the Snow family, huh?“If you can’t keep an eye on him, I’ll do it.”“...”Freya took a glimpse at Nathan, who was on the phone. He looked furious.The last time Nathan was so furious was when he learned of Ryan’s scandal with another man.She turned her gaze to Ryan, who was beside her. To her surprise, he had no overtime work today and was back for dinner.She walked toward him in fear and found a chair to sit on before mouthing at
“Hah…”Freya could not help but let out a sarcastic laugh.100 million dollars, a villa, and a mansion… How generous of Rodney.When Freya and Rodney got divorced, she had a child with her, yet he was very stingy.Such a person deserved to be cuckolded and betrayed.Nathan glowered at his wife in a huff. “What’s the point of saying these things?”Heidi scoffed. “I just feel sorry for Freya. But if I must say, I think this is pure karma. If Rodney were a little nicer to Freya, he would not have ended up in this state.”All the women in the world basically had the same perception of sc*mmy men, and Heidi was no exception.Stung by Heidi’s words, Nathan was speechless. He lamented Rodney’s nasty behavior, wondering why he had such a foolish nephew.Heidi snorted. “Well, luckily, it’s Jessica who inherited Snow Corporation. If the decision was made based on male chauvinists like you, Rodney would've taken over Snow Corporation. Perhaps he would’ve given Sarah more than 10 billion
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
