“What’s the matter?”After pressing the ‘answer’ button, Chester heard Hunter’s voice.“Can’t I call you for no reason? You have the time to visit Eliza, that countrywoman’s mother but not your mom and me. Chester, you really let me down.”“If that’s all you’re going to say, I’m going to hang up.”In fact, Chester could hang up straight away, but he wanted to find out what Hunter and his wife were up to.“Come home tonight. Your mom misses you,” Hunter said.“I saw her yesterday,” Chester replied indifferently.Hunter said sternly, “Your mom wants to see you very badly. Chester, if you don’t come home, that countrywoman won’t get to have the surgery carried out on time tomorrow.”“Says you?” Chester was unbothered.“If you don’t believe me, you can ask Doctor Washington.” Hunter snorted. “You got Doctor Washington to perform the surgery only because you want to please Eliza and her mom. When it’s time for surgery tomorrow, let’s see how you explain yourself to Eliza and her mo
In the evening, the Bentley slowly drove into the Jewell family’s old residence.It had been two years since Chester had been back, and an unspeakable sense of unfamiliarity crept up inside him.“Young Master, you’re finally back.” The butler went forward enthusiastically and opened the door for him. As the butler was about to support Chester, Chester’s indifferent eyes swept over him. The smile on the butler’s face stiffened right away.“I don’t need you to support me.” Chester stretched out his walking stick. Then, he extended his sound leg before extending the prosthetic leg.Hunter and his wife had walked out by then. At the sight of their son, Hunter’s eyes flashed with annoyance and disdain. However, he quickly concealed those feelings.“Chester, your leg seems much better now. You look no different from a normal person.”Madam Jewell called out to Chester with a grin, “Come on in. I’ve told the chef to prepare many of your favorite dishes.”Chester walked toward the l
Soon, it was time for dinner.The servants brought out the dishes for tonight, which were rather sumptuous.Madam Jewell enthusiastically plated the dishes for Chester. Chester had no idea what Hunter and his wife’s motive was, but they should get to the point after the meal.However, after having some food, Chester furrowed his brows. “The food is a bit too salty, isn’t it?”“Salty?” The chef who prepared the food rubbed her hands nervously. “I prepared it the same way I usually do.”“I was the one who told her to make it a little saltier.” Hunter promptly said, “It’s nicer to have rice with dishes that are more flavorful. What’s more, I don’t find it salty.”Madam Jewell also added, “Your dad and I have always had our meals like that. We’re used to it, so it’s fine for us.”The corners of Chester’s mouth twitched. As their son, he did not feel like caring about those issues. However, as a doctor with ethics, he could not help but remind them, “Taking too much salt is unhealthy
When Chester pushed open the door to the bedroom he used to stay in, he found that the furnishings inside were still the same as before.Despite not having been home for a long time, it was not dusty at all.The moment Chester entered the room, a rush of heat spread through his body.He took out a set of clothes from the wardrobe. When he removed his shirt and revealed his upper body, the heat did not go away. Instead, it got worse.As a doctor, Chester knew full well what was wrong with him.In fact, he had acted cautiously since he entered the house.It was probably the water he drank…It was no wonder the dishes today were salty. Chester was under the impression that his parents were old and suffered from dysgeusia, so they tended to take salty food. However, it turned out that it was done deliberately.Chester had never thought that his parents would use such a tactic, even though he had thought of various reasons why his parents asked him over.What was their motive?“Ch
Downstairs, when Hunter and Madam Jewell saw Chester come down so soon, their expressions shifted. They hoped that Cindy would take advantage of Chester, but even so, could the process have been so quick…“Young Master Jewell…” When Ken noticed that Chester’s clothes were a mess and that Chester was not holding a walking stick, he wanted to dash toward Chester to hold him.However, the two bodyguards subconsciously wanted to stop Ken.“Get lost.” Ken immediately fought them in the living roomChester walked to the ground floor by himself with great difficulty. With a dull voice, he asked, “What are you both trying to do?”Hunter and his wife were both stunned.What did that mean? Had Cindy done it? If she had not, why would Chester rush downstairs with his clothes in a mess?“Chester…” Madam Jewell went forward reluctantly, wanting to hold Chester.In the end, Chester shook her hand off.If it had not been for Hunter who promptly held Madam Jewell, she might have fallen onto t
Chester ignored Hunter after that.His body had reached its limit.Under Ken’s protection, Chester soon got into his car.The moment the door was closed, he could not help but fall in the back seat and groan in pain.Ken hurriedly got in the driver's seat and began to drive hastily while expressing concern over Chester’s condition. “Young Master Jewell, what’s wrong?”“They drugged my drinks. I need to go home to take a cold shower.”Chester’s face was flushed red. As his body was burning hot, he took off his clothes.Ken was dazed for some time before it hit him what was in the drinks.He was speechless for a long time.It was his first time hearing a case of parents drugging their child’s drink.Were they out of their mind?“So, you were upstairs–”“Cindy was upstairs,” Chester said through gritted teeth.“No wonder…”Ken finally understood the couple’s real motive that night.Could it be that they wanted to matchmake Chester and Cindy?Did the couple have to go that
Charity did not expect herself to be dragged into the matter.It was no wonder Chester would go to the Jewell family’s house all of a sudden.She did not know that the Jewell family would be so despicable to threaten Chester with Doctor Washington’s granddaughter.Now that Chester was in that state, Charity felt the need to help him. However, Chester’s condition…Charity’s face began to pale. That kind of matter was traumatic for her. As far as she could recall, that caused her nothing but embarrassment and pain.What was more, she could not bring herself to do it with Chester as he had been with many women in the past. She could not pretend as if nothing happened. “Why don’t… you get him another woman?” Charity took two steps backward with a look of panic on her pretty face.Ken said with disbelief, “Miss Robbins, I believe you understand Young Master Jewell’s feelings for you. Aside from you, he’s not interested in other women. If he weren’t bothered about it, he would’ve a
“Chester, where are you going?”Charity leaped to her feet and went after him.Then, she saw Chester’s hand placed on the paring knife on the coffee table.Something suddenly came to her mind, and an unnameable fear overcame her. “Don’t…”However, Chester could not hear her voice anymore. He lifted the knife and stabbed that part of his lower body.He hated himself. What was done was done, yet Charity still found him filthy. Could he stand a chance of being with Charity if he lost that part? Would it mean that he could live with Charity and Cal? Would it also mean that Cal could officially call him… Dad?In desperation, Charity subconsciously stretched out her hand to stop him.In the process, the knife moved, and it sank into her flesh.It hurt a lot. It hurt so much that she nearly suffocated, but it made Chester slightly more conscious.Chester looked down, only to see a deep gash on the back of Charity’s hand, where blood was gushing out.“Charity… Charity…” Chester was a
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
