“It’s simple. Rodney lived with Sarah for over ten years. After they got married and lived together, Sarah constantly brainwashed him. Judging from her character, she could justify her wrongdoing and make herself seem like the most innocent victim. Rodney must’ve been influenced by her.”Catherine reminded Freya, “Have you forgotten about Sarah abusing animals? What a cruel act. When Rodney discovered the matter later, he, too, felt that she was cruel. But in the end, he suppressed the matter and let it fly under the radar. What does that show? It shows that his moral standards have been lowered over and over again.”Freya was startled.She did not ponder over it back then. However, now that Catherine reminded her, it hit Freya that she probably had never understood Rodney, the man who used to be her husband.If possible, she hoped that Rodney would not be so embarrassing.It was because he was Dani’s father, which was a fact that could not be erased.…In the morning, Freya sat
Before Freya could finish speaking, Rodney stepped out of the black car. He had grown a mustache at the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were bloodshot. The fierce look on his face made Freya shudder. She subconsciously turned around and was about to run away.However, Rodney strode toward her. He grasped her collar from behind and pulled it violently.“Ah.”Freya was caught off guard and pulled to the ground, where she fell and hurt her tailbone and arms.“Get up.”Rodney lost his sanity and pulled her up. After that, he dragged her toward the black car to put her inside.“What are you doing, Rodney? Let go of me.” Freya recalled Catherine’s analysis. Then, she looked at Rodney’s ferocious expression in fear. She must not get into the car regardless.She fought to resist him.“Go on, struggle.” Rodney squeezed her neck with exasperation. “Freya, I’m giving you the last bit of respect. Don’t be ungrateful.”“You’re crazy. You must be out of your mind.” Freya screamed in agit
“Hah. Didn’t you deliberately take the rap for Eliza to make me hate you and divorce you? I thought you did that to protect your friend at first. But now, I see the light. You used it as a ploy to get together with Ryan.” Rodney got more worked up as he spoke, his eyes glinting fiercely. “Otherwise, why did you stay in The Lodge after we divorced? You even want Dani to acknowledge Ryan as her dad, right? Freya, I’m telling you. You can dream on.”Freya was frightened. She was really frightened.What kind of person did she marry previously?“Rodney, I’m telling you once again that I didn’t wrong you.”Agitated, Freya put her thoughts into words. “I stayed in The Lodge to shun you. You think that I was fickle, don’t you? I’ll have you know that I was not. At that time, I only liked you a little. Although we got married, I wasn’t in love with you either. I promised you that I’d make a go of our life to provide Dani with a complete family.“Do you understand?“I’ve never loved you,
When Forrest received a call from his mother, he instantly flew into a fury.However, he pulled himself together as soon he held the phone.There was no use in calling the police regarding the issue. When Rodney beat Sarah up the last time, he was brought to the police station quite frequently but was released soon after. What was more, he did not hit or kidnap Freya this time. After all, Freya was still at home.All the police could do was lecture Rodney.It was necessary to get to the root of the issue in order to solve it.Forrest clenched his fists and tried calling the person he had been hiding in the depths of his heart. In the end, he failed to reach the person.His expression darkened. Then, he took his car keys and rushed out of the office.He immediately drove toward the Snow family’s old residence.The security guard at the gate saw him coming, so he opened the gate. “Mr. Lynch, who are you looking for?”“Step aside. I’m looking for Rodney’s parents.” Forrest barged
Forrest threw a tantrum. “Yes. Although my family comes from a humble background, that doesn’t mean we’re scared of you. Rodney is a darling in the Snow family, but isn’t Freya a darling in ours? Who doesn’t have parents? When Rodney cheated on my sister and kicked her until she was admitted to the hospital, I wanted to stir up trouble for you guys. But because of Dani, I held back my feelings, yet you guys continue to push your luck.“I’m going to say this once again. Freya did not cheat on Rodney. The Lynch family has done nothing wrong. If you don’t keep your son under control, both our families will kick up a stink at worst. My family might be no match for you, but we’ll do our utmost to destroy your reputation. If we can’t stay in Canberra anymore, we can return to Melbourne.”After speaking furiously, Forrest walked to the gate and looked back. “Also, it’s my sister’s business to date who she wants. Whether she wants to break up or continue her relationship with Ryan, no one ha
Jessica was a clever person.After a moment of thought, she grasped Ryan’s meaning.However, would Rodney actually bring chaos to the Snow family for the sake of that matter?The Snow family had never owed Rodney anything. Since Rodney was young, he was given the best education. If he treasured everything and had not gotten together with Sarah, what Jessica currently had would have been his.Jessica recalled her earlier conversation with Rodney in the house.He said, “Jessica, I finally see the light. Luckily, you’re the one who took over Snow Corporation. If I were to take over it… I really am foolish. This position is suited for you better than me.”At that time, she said, “We all make mistakes. As long as you reflect on the cause of the mistakes, you can improve. Given that you’re still young, you can make a comeback as long as you work hard.” However, would Rodney think the same as he did previously?After remaining quiet for a while, Jessica finally said, “I’ll send the S
“Dad, it’s not possible to finish a proposal in a day anyway. I need to research and extract data. Besides, you said I don’t have to rush through it…”“Are you not going to even though I said so? Is this how you work for me?” Nathan threw a fit. “I think you’re only focused on your relationship.”“Dad, I really need to go out tonight,” Ryan continued to argue impatiently. “Rodney almost kidnapped Freya by force this afternoon. He’s not contactable now, and his whereabouts are unknown. If he went to meet your enemies, the consequences would be unimaginable. I must discuss with Freya about disclosing our relationship. The faster, the better.”“Are you nuts?”Nathan instantly thumped the desk and told him off, “I’ve been stressed out about your affair, and what about you? It’s fine that you’re not planning to break up with her, but now you’re telling me you want to disclose your relationship with her? Are you insane?” “Dad, at this point, the person who speaks first will get a head
Ryan said indifferently, “If you’re unwilling, forget it. Besides, Freya might not want to announce our relationship to the public anyway. After all, Mom met Freya today and talked to her. Well, Mom is quite skillful. She immediately made Freya waver, and we almost broke up.”Nathan glanced at his wife suspiciously. He did not expect her to be so skillful. Unfortunately, Rodney just had to butt in. Nathan felt his head ache. “Let me think this through.”“You don’t have to think about it.” Heidi said calmly, “Ryan, do as you wish. After this… I don’t wish to see Rodney in Australia anymore. Also… Don’t give him the chance to stage his comeback again.”Nathan was shocked, and his lips moved. “Nathan, Rodney isn’t stupid. If he is, how could he have established Osher Corporation? He hates our son and Freya, so I’m 90 percent sure that he’ll bite us back. But no matter whether he’ll bite us back or not, he has to be eliminated.”Heidi said expressionlessly, “Your plan to send him
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
