Sally cried out and said, “Your father is a beast! He actually said that I killed your grandmother. Rebecca, you have to protect yourself.”Sally was quickly taken away, and Rebecca fell to the ground. She had suffered in the countryside for over 20 years, and it had not been easy for her to come here. However, only after one year, her family was destroyed.If something happened to Jeffery and Sally, what qualifications would she have to be the eldest miss of the Jones family?No, no. She did not want to go back to those days!She hurriedly called Stephen. “Stephen, I’m begging you. Please help me. My mom and dad were taken away by the police. As long as you help me, I promise that I’ll marry you. I’ll give you half of Hudson’s shares.”“Rebecca Jones, I understand now. Misfortune befalls whoever is with you. First, it was Ethan Lowe, and now your mom and dad are going to jail. My reputation was also completely ruined by you. Get lost and stay away from me in the future. Just the
Catherine had not seen him this angry for a long time. She quickly hung up the phone and explained it to him. “Did you see those photos? Don’t misunderstand—”“Misunderstand? How am I supposed to misunderstand?”Shaun grabbed the phone in his hands and threw it at her. His dark pupils were covered with disappointment, disgust, and hatred.“Take a look at those disgusting pictures yourself. You claim that you don’t like Wesley Lyons, but you hugged him tightly and even took off his clothes. Catherine Jones, why are you so shameless?”His phone hit her chest hard. It hurt, but not as much as her heart was.How many men could keep calm if they saw pictures like these? He had been cuckolded by her.“No, I was set up! That night, Rebecca Jones forced me to drink, and Wesley Lyons saved me. Nothing happened between us.”Catherine shook her head and choked as she explained, “I soaked myself in cold water the entire night.”“Do you take me for a fool?”An eerie cold laugh sounded from
Originally, Catherine did feel slightly suspicious, but after hearing Wesley’s tone, she felt that she was being too pessimistic. Wesley was a gentleman. He would never spread photos like that.“He’s angry now. You’ll only make it worse if you call him.” Catherine smiled bitterly. “Didn’t you say that you destroyed the camera back then? Why…”“I did destroy it. I even checked it at that time.” Wesley’s tone showed how distressed he was. “I think the photos were transferred to Rebecca Jones in real-time. I was negligent. I found out that the photos online were spread to a reporter by Rebecca.”Catherine smiled wryly. She had underestimated Rebecca. These photos were too provocative.“I’m sorry.” Wesley apologized again. “I’m fine since I’m a man, but it’ll really affect your reputation. If there’s anything I can do for you, just let me know and I’ll try my best to make it up to you.”“Thank you. I have a call from the company I need to take. Let’s talk later.”Catherine quickly hu
The crowd went silent. After half a minute of silence, General Manager Wolfe nodded. “We’ll do as Chairwoman Jones says.”Soon, Husdon’s Facebook posted an update to the public.[The photos were taken more than a month ago. Chairwoman Jones was framed and set up. Fortunately, Wesley Lyons appeared in time to save Chairwoman Jones, but nothing happened between the two parties. The two are still close friends now. We hope everyone will stop discussing the matter.]Then, Wesley personally shared the post.[At that time, Chairwoman Jones was drugged, but she quickly sobered up and soaked in a cold bath. She’s a very strong woman. I hope that people will not misunderstand and abuse her because of a few photos.]After the post was uploaded, the effect was surprisingly good.Many people praised Wesley for being warm and attentive, and Catherine for being strong and brave.Some people even shipped them and told them to be lovers instead of friends. They said they were the most compatibl
That night, Shaun drank glass after glass of wine. Chase could not stop him.Shaun’s alcohol tolerance was high, but he drank a lot tonight and surprisingly got a little drunk.“I suddenly miss Sarah.”He looked at the night outside the window and whispered, “Out of all the women around me, she was the only one who was wholehearted to me. There was no deception and no betrayal. Why did she have to die?”Chase held his glass, a twinge of pain welling in his heart.What others saw was the noble and mysterious Young Master Hill, but he knew that Shaun had grown up without his parents’ love. Inside, he was an extremely insecure person. Even when he was in kindergarten, those who approached him had hidden agendas, causing him to become very suspicious.This time, Shaun was really hurt.As his friend, Chase suddenly regretted calling him to Melbourne. He did not expect that Shaun’s heart, which had always been frozen, would suddenly be moved.Chase accompanied him to drink until Shau
Catherine fetched a basin of hot water. She took off his coat, unbuttoned the collar of his shirt, and wiped his exquisitely handsome face with a towel.“Sarah…” The man suddenly grabbed her hand, and a low murmur escaped his thin lips.Catherine froze as if a bucket of cold water was dumped on her.Sarah?Who was that? Was it his ex-girlfriend?A woman’s heart was always sharper than anyone else’sCatherine pulled her hand away from his grip forcefully. The man’s hand grabbed the air, and he called out to Sarah again.She turned around and sat on the edge of the bed. Her eyes reddened, and her heart was pricked as if it was being stabbed. It hurt....The next morning.Shaun woke up with a hangover. His head hurt, and his stomach felt uncomfortable too.He looked at the surroundings and realized that it was his bedroom in the villa.Why did Chase send him back here? He really did not want to face Catherine now.However, he had drunk too much last night and was feeling ver
...Shaun sat in the backseat of his car. He had acted in a fit of anger earlier, but now he suddenly felt very hungry. His stomach started to hurt again.He lit a cigarette irritably. If he had known that this would happen, he would have finished eating the breakfast before getting angry.“Young Master Hill, let me buy you something to eat.” Hadley looked at him worriedly.“I’m not in the mood. Go bring Rebecca Jones to me,” Shaun said coldly, “I’ve always wanted Catherine to deal with her, but she’s too useless. I’ll do it myself.”Hadley nodded. It seemed like he would have to pray for Rebecca soon.Hudson Corporation.Rebecca was directly kicked out by the security guards.She was unwilling and yelled at the door, “Even if my dad was arrested, he’s still a shareholder of the company and I’m still his daughter! I have the right to inherit his shares and enjoy the dividends.”“Get lost!” The security guard spat at her unceremoniously. “Everyone already knows that your parent
“Be quiet.” Hadley smiled. “Who do you think Willie Hill is? Haven’t you figured out why Willie changed his attitude toward you so quickly?”Rebecca froze. She looked at Shaun and suddenly remembered that his last name was Hill as well. “That can’t be. I’ve never heard of someone called Shaun in the Hill family.”“How would you know how many people are in the Hill family?” Hadley mocked. “Let me tell you, my Young Master Hill is the biggest young master in the Hill family. He’s been in charge of the family since he was 20.”Rebecca’s brain buzzed as if she was dreaming. Everyone knew that the mysterious young master of the Hill family was Lea Hill’s son. This person was very low-key, but his ruthless methods were well known.He entered the company at the age of 20. When his second uncle disobeyed, he broke his second uncle’s leg in front of a crowd.After he took charge of Hill Corporation, he expanded his overseas territory with thunderous speed and even entered the fields of com
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
