Madam Jewell’s expression stiffened. “Your dad used to have a good relationship with Toby. We can’t possibly steer clear of them the moment they get into trouble. He came to visit us back when you were in prison too. The Jewell family can’t do that kind of thing.”“You two are so merciful,” Chester mocked. “Look at what he did. You’re a woman too, Mom.”“But Toby wasn’t the one who did this,” Madam Jewell said resignedly. Chester could not be bothered to care about her. He started walking toward the reception room in long strides. “It’s been a while, Chester.” Toby stood up and held out his hand to Chester. Chester did not even look at his hand, not to mention shake his hand. Chester went to a sofa and sat down. “Why are you here, Uncle Toby? The Patterson family is detested by many now. There’s a crowd surrounding the hotel’s entrance, wanting the hotel to provide an explanation, but here you are at my home. Dad, you must be muddled too. You actually dared to open the door f
“Huxley’s making a move?” Chester asked with a frown. “Hasn’t he been apprehended?”Toby smiled. “President Jewell, you may not know this, but Huxley has been on drugs for a few years.”He pointed at his head. “After taking so many drugs, he’s become abnormal. He has a rash temper, is violent, easily angered, and crazy. A person like that won’t care about consequences.”“Were you the one who told him it was Eliza’s doing?” A gleam flashed across Chester’s eyes. “Of course.” Toby was quite smug. He even thought Chester would thank him. Chester changed his position and showed a smile on his handsome face. “Uncle Toby, I need to have a few words with you privately.”Toby’s eyes brightened. Hunter said in dissatisfaction, “What do you have to say that you can’t say in front of me?”“A lot.” Chester stood up rudely and went upstairs. “If you’ll excuse me, Hunter.” Toby followed Chester to the study upstairs with a troubled expression. Chester closed the door lightly and even
Hunter had the urge to strangle his son to death. “Are you okay, Toby?” Hunter quickly helped Toby up. However, he was puzzled upon seeing Toby’s face, which was perfectly fine. “Did my son hit you?”Toby was exasperated. He had been screaming his head off, yet Hunter was still asking him if he got hit. Was it not obvious?“I almost got beaten to death.” Toby raised his clothes while trembling. There were patches of bruises on his body. Those were only external injuries. His internal injuries were probably more severe.Hunter felt embarrassed. Toby was his guest. “You know that my son’s mood is unpredictable. He usually doesn’t respect me either. What did you say to offend him?”Toby recalled Chester’s words and shuddered. “Your son said he loves Eliza.”He was stupid. He should not have come to look for Chester.Who would have thought of it?Even a devil like Chester said he was in love. It was so bizarre. Hunter was stunned. “This… This is impossible. His personality… How
Chester ended the call after speaking. Catherine quickly found Charity’s number and dialed it, but she could not reach her. She hastily looked for Ryan and asked for Max’s number. Then, she requested the number of Charity’s bodyguard from Max. When she finally managed to contact Steven, she breathed a sigh of relief. “Where’s Eliza? I’m her friend. Is she okay?”Steven glanced at the woman sitting in the backseat. “She’s fine. She’s reading some documents. Do you have any business with her?”“Chester told me to tell her that Huxley has escaped. He might bother Eliza. He’s crazy, so you guys should pay attention,” Catherine said anxiously. “Where are you guys now?”“We’re heading to the supermarket.” Steven gazed at the overpass in front of him. “We’re crossing the overpass soon, and we have two bodyguards in the car. There are bodyguards watching the villa too. It should be fine.”“Anyway, you must be careful. Drive slower too. Tell Eliza not to go to the supermarket anymore
At this moment, it was as though the Range Rover had gone crazy. It hit the smaller cars that were blocking it out of its way and emerged, chasing after them like a bull. “F*ck, they must be crazy.” Steven punched the steering wheel. On a usual day, he could show off his driving skills in spacious places. However, he could not do that on the highway. There were many big cars. If things went badly, someone might die.The judge would not let them go after they caused a pile-up just because they were escaping for their lives. Steven was scared, but the people in the car behind him had gone mad. They did not even care about the commoners’ lives. Charity could confirm that the driver of the car behind them was definitely Huxley. The Range Rover quickly caught up with her Audi A8 like a cat chasing after a mouse. “Miss Robbins, what do we do now?” Steven asked in a serious manner. “If he really hits us, our car won’t be able to go up against a Range Rover. It even has a long
The surroundings were chaotic.Some were screaming.Some were helping to save others.Some were going all out to grab hold of the Audi so that it would not fall into the river.Charity faintly remembered that she was the first to be saved.Later, her memory of everything else was hazy.She vaguely heard some voices in her mind.“Isn’t she the A-list celebrity, Eliza?”“Probably.”“It looks like the Land Rover was trying to hunt her down to kill her.”“Hurry up, the one in the sports car seems to be badly injured.”“The psycho in the Land Rover came out again.” “...”After that, everything could not be heard.“Beep, beep…”Charity gradually woke up amid the sound of the defibrillator.She opened her eyes, only to find herself lying in the VIP ward.“Charity, you’re awake.” Max’s handsome face appeared in front of her with a concerned look.“Charity, are you feeling okay?” Catherine hurried over.“Charity, do you remember me? I’m Freya. You didn’t lose your memory and
Catherine and Freya’s eyes were filled with complicated feelings.It could be due to their identity and job nature that they considered Max the most upright man they had ever met.“But aren’t you worried that Charity…” Catherine bit her tongue.Max forced a smile. “She has never been with me. I can’t force her to be with me just because I’ve helped her. We’re friends. In the past, I helped her out of willingness. If she’s still not interested in me, I can’t force her either. Doing so will only cause the person I love to find me disgusting and despicable.”Catherine sighed. After a long time, she said, “Then… tell Charity about it after she’s awake.”“...Alright, thank you.” Max nodded. He turned around and entered the ward.“Why do you want him to let Charity know? He’ll even thank you.” At that moment, Freya had not come to her senses.“If he’s the one who says it at this time, it’ll make him seem magnanimous.” Catherine said with a smile, “In fact, he’s indeed magnanimous and
“I’ve been hiding a lot of things from you. What’s strange about it?”Catherine grinned and threw that remark casually. Her expression that was as cunning as a fox instantly made Shaun choke.“Cathy, I never hide anything from you,” Shaun said glumly.“But every time you file a lawsuit, do you tell me your litigant’s matters?” Catherine refuted. “I always keep other people’s secrets, not mine. I have no right to tell you about those. If you’re so great, you can ask Chester. Let’s see if he’ll tell you.”Shaun looked helpless. He felt as though his wife and buddies were boycotting him. “It’s unknown whether Chester will wake up.”“Don’t worry. He will.” After pausing for a moment, Catherine said, “They say bad people will never die.”Shaun was at a loss for words.Catherine continued to comfort him, saying, “Look how wicked Sarah was. She only died after causing so much trouble. Although Rodney has turned into a fool, he’s still fine. He’s always laughing and is happier than us.”
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
