Chapter 2828

Penulis: Shallow South
“I don’t know him that well,” Max said in a low voice.

“That makes sense.” Larissa nodded. “By the way, how did your blind date go today? I heard from your mom that you went on a blind date with a military officer’s daughter.”

Max’s handsome face stiffened. He did not expect that his mom would tell Larissa about it. In that case, Charity…

At that moment, the sound of footsteps came from the stairs as Charity walked down in casual clothes. Max did not know whether she overheard their conversation or not.

Even if she did, she probably already knew about it.

“Aunt Larissa, my mom arranged it on her own. The lady’s parents are influential, so it would’ve been disrespectful if I didn’t go. I’ll find an excuse later to say that our personalities don’t match and that we can’t be together.” Max quickly raised his voice and said, “I already have someone I like.”

Larissa saw Max looking at her daughter, and her head started to ache. However, she did not say anything.

  • Let Me Go, Mr. Hill!   Chapter 2829

    “Charity, I told you I can wait–” Max was struggling helplessly.“Max, you see life as too simple sometimes.” Charity looked at him seriously. “Perhaps this has to do with the environment you were raised in. Your family might not be considered well-off, but your parents love you. You’ve also been living in a healthy environment, and now that you’re older, the only hardship you’ve faced is on the battlefield.”“Is there anything wrong with that?”“Yes. Of course, there is. Think about it. If I insist on being with you, will your parents like me? Even if our families used to be on good terms, they’ll hate me. How nice it would be if I hadn’t shown up. Then, I wouldn’t have interrupted your life, and you’d surely be able to marry a rich lady who would be helpful to your future. With time, not only will there be a conflict between your mom and me, but you’ll also have a falling-out with your parents. You may think it doesn’t matter simply because you’re not mature enough yet.”At the m

    Charity was momentarily dumbfounded.She previously did hear that a few people had tried to have her join the board of directors, but there was no news after that.Little did she expect she would become a board member just like that.“So, are you trying to get me to band with you to deal with the Jewell family?” Charity soon guessed Finn’s motive. “Don’t forget, Young Master Carlson. Chester was in jail for three months, but he ousted you once he was out of jail. Are you sure you’re competent?”“Hehe. It’s different this time.” Finn said with a grin, “Chester is being treated in the Jewell Corporation’s hospital at the moment. Although he’s been trying to hide it, I managed to learn about something. This time, not only is his leg seriously injured, but his head has also suffered a concussion. There’s no way he can recover within one and a half years. Considering his current health, how can he take care of himself, let alone handle the company’s affairs?”Charity deliberately said,

    “No wonder I noticed yesterday that Chester has thinned down a lot,” Charity added.“Ever since he’s been injured, he has lost over ten kilograms. He has a poor appetite, and his wound hurts at night, so he doesn’t get proper rest.” After that, Ken glanced at Charity and realized that her expression remained nonchalant.He gritted his teeth.That woman was indeed… a lot more cold-blooded than Chester back then.Sure enough, like attracts like.When the two of them entered the ward, they sensed the unpleasant smell of blood and disinfectant.Chester, on the other hand, had already closed his eyes, and his face was pale.Ken opened the window. “Young Master Jewell must’ve been in so much pain that he has fallen asleep.”“I’ll wait.” Charity asked, “It should be okay, right?”“I’m sure Young Master Jewell will be glad to see you when he wakes up.” Ken said honestly, “Miss Neeson, to tell you the truth, I’ve been working for Young Master Jewell for ten years, and he used to be a c

    Charity stared intently at the arm that she was pressing on with both hands.It was bony.“Finn tempted me into helping him using 20 billion dollars.”“20 billion dollars.” Chester laughed. “That’s quite a large sum of money. The Carlson family is putting in a lot of money to get what they want.”“What do you need me to do?” Charity asked directly.“Will you agree to do whatever I ask you to do? You’re suddenly so nice that I’m not used to it.” While Chester was speaking, his brows raised a little.“I’m not that despicable.” Charity looked down. “I’m not the kind who’ll kick a man when he’s down.”“I know.” Chester’s gentle gaze was fixed on her. “If Cindy hadn’t exposed what you said on the Internet, Finn wouldn’t have looked for you and tried tempting you.” Charity recalled what she had said earlier. She told Madam Jewell that Chester willingly saved her and that she did not beg him to do so.That remark was indeed cruel.“Just promise Finn,” Chester said all of a sudden.

    Chester felt bitter. In the past, the people he looked down upon the most were good men and husbands. He did not expect that he would regret it so much one day. “You’ve said so much, but you haven’t mentioned yourself. Are you planning to give Jewell Corporation up?” Charity swept a glance across Chester’s body. “I don’t want to give it up, but I’m powerless.” Chester clenched his hands. “The doctor said I can only be discharged in at least three months. My left leg still needs to be operated on, and my head hurts all the time. I don’t get sufficient sleep at night and am not clear-headed enough during the day. Shaun is handling many matters in my stead now.”Charity frowned. It seemed that Finn had guessed everything correctly. “Of course, if you’re willing to take charge of Jewell Corporation, I’ll give you my full support,” Chester suddenly said. Charity was stunned. “I’ve never thought about it. All I want now is to manage Neeson Corporation.”“I guessed so too.” Ches

    “No…”Charity was stunned. “We…”“Come back,” Chester called. Ken, who was about to open the door and head out, bit the bullet and said with his back facing them, “I didn’t see anything.”“Don’t spout nonsense. She’s giving me a massage,” Chester scolded. Ken was taken aback. Charity quickly pulled the blanket down to cover Chester’s leg. “Since you’re here, I’ll leave now.”“Don’t.” Ken knew he had misunderstood, so he said hastily, “I’ve prepared your meal, Miss Robbins. Since it’s past noon, you can have lunch together. Young Master Jewell’s appetite hasn’t been good lately, but maybe he’ll eat better with you here.”“Enough. Don’t put Charity in a difficult position.” Chester sighed softly. “People might lose their appetite looking at how ugly I am. There’s no need to do this.”Ken had served Chester the entire time, but it was his first time hearing Chester lament, and he was momentarily dumbfounded. What act was Chester putting on?Right then, Charity said, “You’re

  • Let Me Go, Mr. Hill!   Chapter 2835

    Chester did not speak. He simply stared at Charity with an affectionate and melancholic yet frustrated gaze. Charity immediately felt uncomfortable. “I’m leaving.”“Thank you for your hard work today. See Miss Robbins off, Ken,” Chester said hastily. “No need. I know the way out.” Charity took her bag and scurried away. As Chester watched her leave from behind, a hint of sadness flashed across his eyes. Ken said, “President Jewell, you can use work as an excuse to ask Miss Robbins to come over.”“You have a point there.” Chester was stunned for two seconds. Then, he praised Ken. “My head injury has really made me stupid.” Ken thought to himself, ‘You didn’t look like you were stupid when you were pretending to be weak and fragile.’“You shall go to the board of directors meeting at Jewell Corporation tomorrow to protect her,” Chester told Ken, “If she supports Finn, I’m afraid my dad will act out of control. Tell my dad directly that this is my stance.”“But this will c

    During the board of directors meeting in the morning, the directors appeared one after another. They were all men and women older than Charity. However, no one dared to underestimate Charity when everyone gathered. What a joke. Who would dare to be careless with a countryside girl who had climbed to such a position? Director Carlson went up to her immediately. “Lizzie, did you eat the pumpkin soup I sent you when you were in the hospital? It’s especially suitable for girls because it’s great for beauty and wound healing.”“Thank you, Uncle Jeremy.” Charity smiled. She did not sound very enthusiastic, and it even sounded a little cold. When Hunter, who entered afterward, saw Charity and Director Carlson so friendly with each other, his face darkened. He scolded, “Some people must’ve lost their conscience. Someone almost lost his life to save her, yet she’s so ungrateful to him.”“That’s right. Don’t be too heartless, Eliza.” A director close to Hunter warned, “If it weren’t fo

    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
