“Get out,” Shaun ordered bluntly.Melanie’s eyes reddened as an incredulous look washed over her face. “Eldest Young Master, I’m your girlfriend…”“You can stop being my girlfriend at any time.” Shaun grabbed her wrist and went downstairs.This was the first time he was taking the initiative to touch her, but before she could feel happy about it, she was pushed right out the door. “Melanie Yule, you didn’t knock and randomly entered another person’s home. Didn’t your family teach you any manners?”Melanie choked with sadness. “It’s not that I don’t have manners. It’s because Young Master Hill is hiding a woman at home and doesn’t want me to see her, right?”Shaun’s face turned livid. This stupid woman had crossed his bottom line. “Do I need to explain what I do to you? Know your place.”Then, he finished his sentence and shut the door with a loud bang.Melanie stood outside the door, dumbfounded. She did not understand. Eldest Young Master Hill had spoiled her a lot before. He e
Shaun’s face was cold as he pulled out a key from his pocket and threw it to her. “Take it. You’ll be on call in the future.” Catherine’s face flashed from white to red. “Aren’t you afraid of Melanie seeing me?”“It doesn’t matter if she sees you. She’s just a woman. I can easily replace her with a different Mrs. Hill. There’ll always be smart people who want that position.”Shaun had just finished speaking when the doorbell rang.He opened the door, and Hadley entered with a bag. “Young Master, here are the clothes you wanted me to buy. Also, you have to attend a company meeting at nine.”“Mm.” Shaun threw the things into Catherine’s arms and said, “Go upstairs and change.”Catherine took the items and left to take a shower. By the time she changed her clothes and went downstairs, Shaun had already left. The phone she had left with Rodney yesterday was on the table.When she looked at it, she found that there were text messages and missed calls from Joel and Wesley, but none f
On Tuesday, Joel took her to the old Yule residence.Catherine gave him the gift she had prepared. “I bought it for you the other day when I went to the mall with a friend. It looked good, and I think the fabric feels quite comfortable too.”“My daughter has a good eye. It looks good. I’ll wear it tomorrow.” Joel smiled from ear to ear.“I also bought two sets for Grandpa and Grandma, but I don’t know if they would—”“Don’t worry, they’re not lacking in gifts. It’s the thought that counts,” Joel said with a smile.The old Yule residence was also near Sherman Mountain.The two did not exchange any words on the way there. When they were about to reach the residence, the whirring sound of a helicopter sounded. Catherine wound down the window to take a look, and Joel finally found a topic to talk to his daughter about. “Many nobles here in the capital have private helicopters. The one just now should be the Snow family’s.”“Rodney Snow?” Catherine blurted out. She really did not lik
Old Master Yule nodded in satisfaction. “That’s a good way of thinking. Eldest Young Master Hill is looking for a wife from a good family. Our Yule family doesn’t lack money or jewelry, so don’t be like those women outside who don’t know how to carry themselves.”“That’s right, unlike some people who grin happily and can’t tear their eyes away when they see jewelry.” The aunt gave Catherine a side-glance that was filled with mockery.The crowd laughed softly, and Joel immediately showed his displeasure. He was about to scold them.Just then, Catherine smiled and said, “Yes, I’m really happy to receive such expensive jewelry, but it’s not because I like how much it cost. It’s mainly because it was given to me by Grandma.”She paused, and her beautiful watery eyes suddenly turned red.“On the way here, I was uneasy. I’m different from Melanie and was raised by my grandparents since childhood. Melanie is lively and likable, but I don’t know how to please others. I was raised by my au
Sitting opposite was the second uncle, Damien Yule. He laughed and asked, “Melanie, when are you going to get engaged with Eldest Young Master Hill?”Melanie saw the crowd looking at her enviously and quickly said shyly, “Granny Hill said the wedding will take place this year or next year. We won’t get engaged and will directly get married.”“It seems that Old Madam Hill is really anxious.” The aunt smiled. “We’ll soon have to call you Mrs. Hill.”Old Master Yule nodded in satisfaction. “Hold on to Eldest Young Master Hill well. The Yule family will depend on you in the future.”Melanie was overjoyed. “Grandpa, I won’t let you down.”Looking at all the people complimenting Melanie, Catherine did not feel uncomfortable. She faintly glanced at Damien opposite her. The man was sitting in a wheelchair, giving people a very gloomy feeling.“By the way, Joel, you promised to give my brother that plot of land along the coast before. Why did I hear that you suddenly talked to the departm
Melanie looked nervous and whispered, “Mom, the eldest young master’s temper is eccentric. I don’t know if he—”“You have to go. If he disagrees, you can go to Old Madam Hill. It’s time to prove our position in the Yule family.” Nicola reminded her.Melanie’s eyes brightened and she nodded....Behind the mountain, in a horse racing venue.A handsome stallion galloped wildly on the grass. The man on the horse held a long whip. His handsome black riding outfit made him look elegant and noble as if he was a European aristocrat. His body exuded a breathtaking manly charm.Soon, the horse stopped and Shaun jumped down from the horse. He undid some buttons on his collar.The executives hurriedly gathered around.“Eldest Young Master, your horseback riding skills are getting better and better.”“Eldest Young Master, you’re really amazing to be able to conquer the wind.”“...”Shaun looked at them expressionlessly. “Get to the point.”An executive steeled his nerves and said, “Eld
Women were so shallow.Shaun raised the whip and led the horse away.His heroic and handsome figure dazzled Melanie’s eyes. He was simply a giant among men. Once she laid eyes on him, she could see no one else.She had to marry him....In the office.General Manager Wolfe reported to Catherine with a dejected face. “President Jones, the plot of land along the coastline was granted to Cosmos Corporation.” Catherine was stunned. “Didn’t you say yesterday that the formalities hadn’t been handled?”“I heard that Eldest Young Master Hill played a part. Cosmos Corporation is an industry under the Wicks family. I heard that the Wicks family is with the Hill family now.”General Manager Wolfe had a bitter face. “We spent a lot of money on this plot of land, but now, it’s wasted.”Catherine was silent and did not speak for a long time.She knew very well how the Wicks family got with the Hill family.She really did not expect that Shaun would help the Wicks family without hesitati
Without even looking at him, Catherine went straight to the kitchen to find cleaning tools. Even after searching for a long time, she could not find any. She went to the balcony.Shaun had sat on the sofa for a while now, and his face was gradually becoming colder.What was going on?Why was she not scolding him for giving the plot of land to Fergus Wicks as soon as she saw him? Why was she not begging him?The script was different from what he imagined, and he got up coldly to walk over to her.Catherine finally found the broom on the balcony. When she turned around, she collided hard against his chest. Her nose hurt as if it was broken. “Eldest Young Master, what are you doing?”“That’s my line.” Shaun felt like he had been poisoned by her. He got even more annoyed when he could not see her upset.“Didn’t you tell me to clean up the place? It’s very late now, so I just want to get this over with and go to sleep. Please get out of the way.” Catherine went around him and began t
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
