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
Catherine did not know what he was planning and could only reply to Wesley with bated breath. “Oh, I was showering and didn’t hear the phone.”“You haven’t called me all day today, so I miss you a little,” Wesley said tenderly. “Do you miss me?”The atmosphere in the bathroom suddenly dropped to freezing point. Catherine stared with wide eyes and almost screamed out in pain. That man actually bit her ear!She turned and glared at Shaun’s hatefully handsome face. He was smiling wickedly and took her into his arms, burying his face in her neck and kissing her neck unscrupulously.Wesley continued to ask, “Why aren’t you talking? Don’t you miss me?”“I… I’ve been too busy these past few days.” Catherine tried her best to hold back.“Have you taken that plot of land?”“No.” Catherine gritted her teeth. That b*stard Shaun actually came to her front and was kissing her on her lips.She moved away, but he chased after her.Wesley sounded distressed. “It’s unfortunate that I’m not the
“You lying woman. Remember, you were the one who asked for this!” Shaun said and kissed her fiercely.Faced with the man’s aggressive kiss, Catherine tried to push him away but it was to no avail.She knew she could not go on like this. How would she face Wesley in the future?She bit down hard on his lip, drawing blood. He hissed in pain.Catherine took the opportunity to push him away. Her face was full of fragility and helplessness. “Shaun Hill, if you force me like this, I’ll smash my head on the bathtub!”“Sure, go ahead!” Shaun’s eyes were devoid of any sympathy. “I’ll just make a phone call to Uncle Joel tomorrow and tell him that his daughter tried to seduce me but then she committed suicide out of shame because she was rejected by me.”Catherine, “...”Her eyes reddened. How could there be such a hateful man in this world? She really did not want to have anything to do with him, but why did he refuse to let her go?Due to excessive anger, tears welled up in her eyes.
He thought about it before taking out his phone and sending a message to Hadley. [No need to help the Wick family with that plot of land along the coastline. Give it to Hudson instead.]Hadley, who was preparing to sleep: [???]Eldest Young Master Hill changed his thoughts every day. How tiring....After washing the clothes, Catherine came out to see Shaun sitting on the sofa. He had on a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and was reading documents. The desk was piled with paperwork. She used to think he looked very charming when he worked, but he was wearing pajamas now and his hair was half-dry, making him look even more charming.However, it was almost 1:00 a.m. but he was still working. With how hard he worked, it could be said that it was reasonable he could rule Hill Corporation with an iron fist.He had not slept yet, so she could not slack off either. She continued to mop the floor.When her eyes were sore and her back hurt, the man’s cold voice sounded. “Go warm the bed for m
8:00 a.m.Catherine walked into the villa with a yawn.Melanie, who was eating breakfast, immediately got up and said, “Dad, look. I told you she went out last night and didn’t return all night. What kind of proper lady stays out all night? I think she might be fooling around outside.”“...”Catherine glanced at her and sneered in her heart. If Melanie had handled her boyfriend better, would Catherine still have needed to go there in the middle of the night to serve him?“What’s that look for? Did I say anything wrong?” Melanie retorted righteously.“No, you’re right. It’s because I’m not a proper lady. You were the one who called me a country bumpkin and an illegitimate daughter.” Catherine smiled and ignored her. She sat down at the table to have breakfast calmly and elegantly.“Dad, did you hear what she said…”“Stop arguing. I believe in Catherine. She already has a fiancé,” Joel interrupted with a cold face. “Besides, didn’t you used to always play around at night as well?
...Hill Corporation.In the conference room early in the morning.Shaun looked at his phone, his cold eyes tinged with a smile.Hoodlum?Why did that word sound so nice to hear?The executives were shocked when they saw him on his phone during the meeting. The president was even smiling so dotingly. They felt like their jaws were about to drop to the table from shock.In the first seat on the right row, Liam’s eyes flashed deeply. The Shaun Hill in his memories was cold and cruel, but this person in front of him seemed different. Was it because of a woman?Liam smiled in concern. “Brother, are you chatting with Ms. Yule? I heard that you’re getting married soon.”Realization dawned on the executives. So that was it! They did not expect Ms. Yule to be so favored by him. It seemed like they would have to curry favor with her in the future.“Start the meeting.” Shaun put down his phone and continued to host the meeting with a straight face.An hour later, he returned to the of
Melanie got angry. “Mom, you’re crazy. How could we call her—”“You don’t get it. This is a good opportunity to ruin her.” Nicola looked at her. “We’ll destroy her in front of the Hill family and completely ruin her future. You forgot that I’m friends with Valerie Hill.”Melanie’s eyes brightened in realization. “Mom, I’ll support you. We can’t let her continue to be in Canberra anymore.”...Hudson Corporation.After Catherine told General Manager Wolfe to handle the plot of land as soon as possible, she received a call from Joel.As soon as she heard that the Hill family had invited the Yule family to their manor for dinner this evening, her face suddenly turned pale.This was Shaun throwing Melanie some sweet carrots after being guilty that he spared Catherine.Women were emotional creatures. On the way to the company today, she did some thinking and thought that Shaun actually did not care about Melanie.However, the turn of events seemed to have given her a slap on the fa
The large estate had a horse-racing track, a golf course, a basketball court, a badminton court, an airstrip...Even Catherine, who had seen the diverse aspects of society, felt overwhelmed by the surroundings.After parking the car, the butler led the four people into the main building.In the splendid living room, Old Madam Hill and her third daughter, Valerie, sat on one side. Old Master Hill and several men chatted over tea in the tea room on the other side.When the four entered, everyone looked over.Catherine, who was wearing a black retro and chic jacket, was the most eye-catching. Her lips were smeared with red lipstick and her long black hair was curled over her shoulders. Her delicate three-dimensional facial features were small with her straight nose and willow-like eyebrows. She had delicate skin, and her beauty was elegant and charming.Next to her, Melanie looked small and pure. Everyone knew that she was the main character tonight, but she was too plain.Old Mada
