“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.”
Charity tried her best to recall the situation after the accident.However, the more she recalled it, the more her head hurt.“Think about what happened to you.” Upon noticing that she suddenly began to breathe rapidly, Max frowned and anxiously leaped to his feet. “I’m going to call the doctor.”“No need.” Charity said, “I just want to recall what happened before I was in a coma.”“If you can’t recall it, just let it be.” Max revealed a look of pity. “A lot of surveillance footage has been leaked on the internet.”“Where’s Huxley?” Charity asked after some thought. “He’s dead.”Charity was speechless.Max gritted his teeth and said, “After the first time Chester hit the Land Rover, the passersby and traffic police rushed over to save you out of the Audi. But Huxley, who was covered in blood, dashed toward you while holding a knife. Chester was the one who eventually hit Huxley, which caused him to fall into the river. Chester was seriously injured only because he didn’t manag
Charity stayed quiet for some time before she said, “Thank you.“Thank you for living carefreely, and thank you for not making things difficult for me. Thank you for giving me sufficient space and not expecting anything from me.”“Stop saying thank you…”Max flashed a bright smile. His eyes were filled with helplessness and dejection. “Are we friends?” Charity opened her mouth with difficulty. “Where’s my phone?”“Here.”Max handed her a black phone. “You’ve been on the trending searches for a day.”“I’d like to watch videos of the crime scene.” Charity expressed her ultimate intention.“Go ahead. I’ll peel an orange for you.”Max took a paring knife and moved aside to peel an orange.Charity tapped open her phone and soon spotted eight trending searches related to her, namely: [Eliza Meets An Accident], [Chester Drives A Sports Car And Dashes Out], [Is Chester in Love With Eliza?], [Chester Is Under Emergency Treatment], [Chester Might Go to Jail After He Wakes Up], [Cheste
It was Charity’s first time seeing Madam Jewell.When Charity just got into a relationship with Chester, she thought that his mother would not like her if she got married to Chester one day.She never thought that she would one day meet Chester’s mother in this manner.Max rapidly stood in front of Charity. “Eliza just woke up. Madam Jewell, we’re very thankful to Chester for saving Eliza too. Having said that, saving Eliza was his own decision. It has nothing to do with Eliza.” Madam Jewell took a glimpse of Max, who stood up for Eliza, before she glanced at Eliza in the wheelchair. Then, she became more furious. “You usually use such a tactic to fool around with men, don’t you? You first did it to Monte, then it was my son’s turn. Now, it’s this man here. Eliza, you can do black magic, huh? Do you think I don’t know what kind of a person my son is? I’m sure you’re as scheming as Sarah who was sentenced previously. If anything happens to my son, I’ll surely make you suffer.” “P
“What is Cindy trying to do? Chester doesn’t even like her…” Freya got slightly huffy.Charity and Freya used to be good friends with Cindy.Over the years, Cindy grew to be as wicked as ever.“Apparently, her blood is very rare. It’s useful to Chester’s mother because his mother has the same blood type as Cindy,” Charity explained.Freya snorted. “Is she trying to make Chester marry her purely for this reason? What a joke. If they were ever going to get married, they would’ve done it earlier.”Catherine, who had been quiet, suddenly said, “Now that Chester is disabled, this is a good chance, isn’t it?”Charity’s hand subconsciously trembled while she was holding her phone. “Chester…”“Shaun has been staying by his side since last night. I took a look at Chester just now, and he seems to be out of danger.” Catherine said, “Even so… one of his legs was hit many times in the accident, so he broke his bones. Only… the flesh is stuck together.”Charity blinked. She pursed her lips
The moment Cindy saw Young Master Jewell’s injuries the day before yesterday when he was sent to hospital for emergency treatment, she secretly hid and vomited. She did not even dare to approach him.Ken saw everything.Why would such a woman exist?Although Young Master Jewell spoke harshly to her, he had always given her what she deserved.If it had not been for Young Master Jewell, she would not have come so far.Thankfully, Young Master Jewell did not marry her back then.“I’m not disturbing him. I’m just keeping him company.” Cindy said in a self-righteous manner, “What’s more, Mr. Jewell and Madam Jewell told me to stay here. Both of you are just bodyguards. Who knows if you both will bully him now that he can’t move and speak?”A hint of fury was revealed in Ken’s eyes.Cindy lifted her head and warned, “Now that Chester is in the hospital, please be clear who the head of the Jewell family is.”In other words, if Ken continued to talk back, Cindy could get Uncle Michael
Ken was dumbfounded. He was so busy taking care of Chester that he overlooked those things.That woman… It was hard to describe her.How could Cindy be in the mood for these things with Young Master Jewell’s condition?“Doing this doesn’t only prove her innocence, but the public will also lash out at Young Master Jewell if he doesn’t marry her after he wakes up.” Ken promptly grasped the point.“That’s the outcome she wants.”Shaun said nonchalantly, “Michael and his wife are glad to have someone ready to give her blood by their side. As for Cindy, all she yearns for is a place in upper-class society. With Chester’s current condition, she probably thinks she’s at a loss for marrying him.”When Ken heard that, he fumed.On second thought, when Cindy looked at Chester’s injuries, her gaze that betrayed her disgust indicated that she might have such a thought.“Dream on. Young Master Jewell won’t marry her anyhow.”“Chester’s movement is currently restricted, so you need to keep
Charity went silent.“Although I’m not sure about the personal vendetta between you and Chester, Chester’s bodyguard said he didn’t regret saving you.” Larissa sighed. “Anyhow, we should thank him for that.”“Mm.”After that, silence descended upon the ward.Larissa looked at her daughter whom she had taken care of since the latter was young. Nevertheless, ever since Charity joined the entertainment industry, she had changed drastically. Sometimes, Larissa thought Charity felt like a stranger.Upon noticing Larissa’s glumness, Charity was slightly swayed. She said, “Mom, since you’re here, just stay here. You don’t have to go home.”“It’ll be great staying here, but I won’t be used to it.” Larissa forced a smile and said, “When you miss me, you can come over and visit me.”“I miss you very much. Just stay here.” In fact, Charity was rather guilty that she was occupying Eliza’s body, yet she had not undertaken the responsibility of looking after Eliza’s mother. All she had done w
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
