Maybe Chester should not have gone there that day. If no questions were asked and no investigations were done, some answers would forever be buried in history. However, after a few months of hesitation, he went there in the end. The cold and heartless Young Master Jewell sat in the car, smoking one cigarette after another. Then, he laughed. He laughed until his handsome face was slowly replaced with iciness. He punched the steering wheel hard. He also smashed his cigarette and glasses. After sitting in the car expressionlessly for two hours, he drove the car to the cemetery. It was not even anyone’s death anniversary. He brought flowers to Charity’s grave. It was a grave, yet the ashes in the urn were not even Charity’s. There was just a headstone erected by Catherine and Freya for Charity. The woman in the photo had long, flowy hair. Her stunning yet calm face seemed to be looking at Chester with the corners of her mouth slightly curved.The woman’s gaze was pure
Chester’s eyes were downcast. He spun the bottle in his hand. He grinned slightly. “You’re so obedient to your wife.”“Chester, I don’t believe that you love Eliza. At most, you just feel dissatisfied for not being able to obtain her in the beginning. Don’t you have her now?”Shaun clinked glasses with Chester. Chester lowered his head and smiled.Yes, he did have Eliza. At 11:00 p.m., Chester dragged his drunken body back to his place.After pushing the door open and entering, his heart seemed to burn from the alcohol. Upon seeing the empty house, it felt as though there were countless ants scratching his heart. He took out his phone and dialed Eliza’s number. He gave an order with a lazy tone, “Come over.”“President… President Jewell.” It was Eliza’s assistant who picked up the call. She was fearful. “I’m sorry. Eliza is asleep after drinking too much at a gathering with the filming crew.”“Tell her to get over here after she wakes up tomorrow morning.”Chester threw hi
“I came to visit someone.”Chester held a cigarette between his fingers. His captivating eyes behind his lenses looked dotingly at Eliza, who was standing not far away.The filming crew was shocked. It turned out that Eliza was Young Master Jewell’s woman. Jasper initially had some feelings for Eliza, but they completely dissipated at that moment. He felt slight disdain in his heart. The film director was trying to recall if he had scolded Eliza before. Heather was utterly jealous. Usually, Eliza had a high and mighty look, so Heather thought she was untainted. It seemed like Eliza had been trying hard to get into other men’s beds in secret. Eliza was no different from Heather. Why was she pretending? Eliza did not say a word. She stopped at a distance from them. A hint of coldness flashed across her eyes. When she and Chester got together, he had promised not to make their relationship public. In the end… He actually came to the movie set as if he was afraid that people
“Eliza, don’t you know that men have a desire to conquer?” Chester’s slender fingers caressed Eliza’s eyes. “I haven’t gotten bored of you. The more you’re like a dead fish, the more I have to teach you properly. Don’t play tricks on me, or I’ll make your subordinates be in a living hell.”After he spoke, he yanked the zip behind her dress open. “No…”Eliza’s expression changed. They were still at the movie set. Chester was humiliating her openly by doing this.“This is a lesson to you for not being obedient.”Chester pinched Eliza’s chin and kissed her. Eliza felt disgusted and nauseous from the bottom of her heart. It was the same no matter how many times it happened.However, that man did not care at all. He forced her to accept everything regardless of anything. “Chester, I’ll go to your place tonight, okay?” Eliza yielded. She did not want to have sex with him here. She still had a scene to shoot in the evening. People would notice something. “You’re not even scared
Eliza had no choice but to change into another dress and apply a thick layer of foundation on her neck to cover the hickeys. However, observant people knew what had happened between her and Chester when she went out. The film director was full of smiles. He was not mad at her for being late. “Eliza, can you do it? Are you tired? If you’re tired, your scene can be shifted to tomorrow.”Heather was dissatisfied and said, “Director, if she doesn’t film, does my scene with her have to be delayed to tomorrow again? I have matters to attend to tomorrow.”“Eliza isn’t even complaining about the delay in time. Why are you, someone who’s less popular than her, complaining?” The director glared at Heather. That made Heather stomp her feet in anger. “It’s okay. I’m not tired. You all can get ready and start preparing for my scene.” Eliza was not happy about the special treatment. She had noticed the filming crew’s strange gazes. Initially, she could sense the staff’s respect toward her.
“Do you really… hate Chester that much?”Catherine put down her cup. She was curious. After all, Chester was indeed not a good person. He was flirtatious and cold, but he was also rich and handsome. His looks were top-notch in the whole of Australia. Even her friend from the old days, Charity, loved Chester deeply. Catherine had heard many stories of Chester’s flings from the past. Those women were all crazy for him. People said that women would like bad men more. There was some logic to that saying. Eliza gave a mocking smile. “Chester is good-looking, but don’t you think he’s dirty?”“...”Catherine was speechless. “Besides, will a woman be able to enter the heart of a person like Chester?” Eliza said indifferently. “He’s different from Shaun. Women are just playthings to him.”No one knew how Chester had insulted her when she treated him with sincerity when she was 18 years old. ‘Charity, I didn’t think you’d be that stupid. You gave me your virginity just after a li
“Those subordinates helped me before. I can’t turn a blind eye to their lives.” Eliza said bitterly, “Besides, where can I go? Many people overseas recognize my face.”“...”“I’m begging you,” Eliza whispered. “...Okay.”After a long moment of silence, that man finally agreed. When the call ended, the man standing on the balcony punched the wall with his fist strongly. The moonlight outlined the man’s cold face. He swore that he would make Chester lose everything one day. …An hour later, a small bottle of medicine was sent to Eliza. She brought the medicine to Ruby Mansions. It was one of the most expensive neighborhoods in the whole of Canberra. Chester’s mansion was located in the best location in the whole neighborhood. The most bustling areas of Canberra could be seen from here at a vantage point. When Eliza opened the door and entered, she saw Chester sitting at the bar, engaged in a call. “Find this person for me as soon as possible. I want all of his infor
“It’s not because you dislike it. You just dislike me touching you.” Chester’s hand that was moving on Eliza’s waist slowly turned cold, and his mouth was close to her lips. Though gentle, his comment was snarky. “Haven’t you learned your lesson through the incident this afternoon?”Eliza’s body stiffened, and she bit her lip. It felt as though she had been struggling internally for a century. Her body relaxed, and her tone softened a lot. “No. I sweated a lot when I acted today. Also, I had a hotpot, so my body is sticky and uncomfortable. Can you let me take a bath first? I won’t run away anyway. Why are you in such a hurry?”It was rare for her to explain herself. In the past, she would be visibly indifferent and resistant.Chester noticed the change in her. Unusually curious, he stood straight and observed her with a dark gaze. “Really?”“Yes.” Eliza nodded. However, she looked down, revealing a large part of the back of her fair neck.“Go ahead.”Chester stared at her for a
