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
At 11:00 p.m., Chester was wheeled out of the operating theater in an unconscious state. The doctor who did the stitches was Director Ashby. When Director Ashby learned that something had happened to Chester, he rushed over from his house.Ken walked forward, and Director Ashby asked with an incomprehensible expression, “How did Chester get injured? Why did he come to the hospital? He told me he would get back to work in the hospital as soon as possible, didn’t he?” Considering Chester’s current state, he would probably need to rest for a month, much less go to work.Charity initially wanted to move forward to find out Chester’s condition. As soon as she heard Director Ashby’s words, she stopped. She was too embarrassed to go over.It would be too embarrassing to say that she refused to do it, which caused Chester to go insane and stab himself in that part.Although Chester dared to do it, she was too embarrassed to say it.Ken explained awkwardly, “It was Young Master Jewell’s
“Four stitches.”Chester was so guilty that he wished he could slap himself to death.“Enough. Stop feeling guilty.” Charity saw through him. Her tone carried a trace of helplessness. “Ever since I met you, I’ve always been injured. That’s very unfortunate of me.”“Charity…” Chester was even more ashamed. At that point, all he could do was feign pity. His handsome face looked pitiful. “I promise that this will be the last time.”“Fine. You’ve risked your life to save me. Actually, I could’ve left you to hurt yourself this time, but… I subconsciously stretched out my hand.” Charity forced a smile. “If I’d known earlier that whether stopping you or not would’ve led to the same result, I might as well not have stretched out my hand.”Chester was speechless.Initially, he was a little hurt. Nevertheless, at the thought of the sentence ‘I subconsciously stretched out my hand’, Chester felt a lot better. “Perhaps that was because… you’re still concerned about me.”With that, he cautio
“You should’ve told me earlier… I could’ve lost that thing of mine long ago and needn’t wait until this day.” Child-like happiness was all over Chester’s handsome face. Charity was speechless. She had no words upon seeing his nonchalant attitude. Did he think his manhood was a strand of hair that could easily be unwanted? It would be a lifetime of humiliation for men. On the other hand, Chester was eager to lose it. “I was unaware that you don’t care about it that much,” Charity said deliberately. “You switched women as if they were clothes in the past. Who knew you would become such a devoted lover after turning over a new leaf?”Chester could hear the sarcasm in her words. However, he no longer cared about it. “If we didn’t break up because of misunderstandings when we were young, I wouldn’t have stooped so low or harbored so much hatred toward women.” Charity was unconvinced. “If you had sufficient trust in me, there wouldn’t have been misunderstandings.”“Charity, p
It was late into the night when Charity arrived home. She went to the nanny’s room to have a look at Cal. After returning to her room, she did not feel sleepy. It could be due to the pain in her hand or other reasons…The next day, after having breakfast and rushing to the hospital, Dr. Washington was already preparing to conduct Larissa’s surgery. Larissa spotted the bandage on Charity’s hand right away. “Oh, how did you hurt your hand?”“I accidentally grazed it,” Charity explained calmly. “You’re so careless. How will I be at ease for my surgery?” Larissa nagged a lot. Her words were filled with a mother’s concern for her daughter. After Dr. Washington administered anesthesia, Larissa was pushed into the operating room. Dr. Washington went up to Charity apologetically after changing. “I’m sorry that Young Master Jewell was threatened because of my granddaughter yesterday. Don’t worry. I’ll handle this surgery personally and ensure that your mother recovers as soon as p
In the end, even Catherine, a person who had gone through a lot in love, had no choice but to say, “Your love is too extreme.”“What happens now?” Freya clicked her tongue. “Get back together? I don’t think it’s a good idea. You’ll have to live like a widow.”“We can’t say that,” Catherine added. “There are still many ways to satisfy a women’s desire.”Freya’s eyes lit up. She could not resist giving Catherine a flirty gaze. “Well, it seems like Shaun had used other ways to satisfy you before. That’s great. Shaun can teach Chester so that Charity can live a happy life. Wait, Chester has much experience too. He might be better than Shaun.”“You shouldn’t mention this,” Catherine warned.“Right.” Freya quickly covered her mouth. “Although Chester had many women in the past, the only part of him that betrayed you is gone. As long as you don’t mind, nothing matters anymore.”Charity was speechless. While she listened to them talking, the topic got even more revealing. Luckily, it w
“Anyhow, now that both of you are back together, I’m relieved.”As Chester’s friend, Shaun was distressed. He had been worrying about Chester over this one year. Regardless of whether Chester was in a local or overseas hospital, Shaun could not stop worrying about him. “Yeah. I’m quite pleased too.” Chester’s thin lips curled into a smile. However, something struck him, and his gaze soon turned grim. “This time, I won’t be soft-hearted and take pity on my parents.”Shaun asked, “Are they insane? Why do they treasure Cindy so much?”“They’re probably eager to have Cindy pregnant with my child. This way, there will be a descendant for the Jewell family, and they wouldn’t need me anymore.” Chester said teasingly, “What’s more, once Cindy gives birth to the child, my money will belong to that child in the future.”Shaun was astonished as that did not cross his mind before. “Who do you think came up with this idea? Cindy or your parents?”“Cindy probably has dropped a hint before, an
