“Eldest Young Master had a relapse after that, and Young Madam said she was going to leave. He shut her down in the cellar and accidentally injured Aunty Yasmine. I called the ambulance in the middle of the night to send Aunty Yasmine to the hospital. Now, I don’t know what else to do,” Shelley said.The handprint on her cheek was still red and swollen. Rodney hit the roof upon hearing that. “Catherine is absolutely sick. I’m going to teach her a lesson…”“Calm down.” Chester grabbed his friend by the arm.“Look at what she’s done to Shaun. She knew he’s mentally unstable, yet she deliberately provoked him. I think she’s trying to make him lose his mind so she can inherit his wealth.”Shelley said weakly, “I unlocked the door to the cellar secretly this morning to let her out. I think… It’s not a good idea to lock someone up like that. What happens if Eldest Young Master has another relapse and hurts someone again?”Chester complimented her, “You did the right thing. Shaun is wron
Oceanic Garden.The neighborhood, consisting of bungalows and villas, was built right next to the Elm River. It was also equipped with a lake, sports center, and other facilities.The salesperson brought Catherine and Freya on a tour the entire afternoon. When they returned to the sales unit, the manager was shocked upon recognizing Catherine, and he immediately informed the boss. The boss quickly called Hadley and the latter passed on the message to Shaun. “Eldest Young Master, Miss Jones is looking to purchase a house.”The man, who was reading work documents in the office, frowned. “What is she trying to prove? It was just a small argument. Does she really not want to come home now?”“...”Hadley did not think it was just a small argument. However, he knew he should console the man instead of further provoking him. “Perhaps… She’s making an investment? Many rich madams are doing the same too.”The tensed features on Shaun’s face relaxed. After a brief consideration, he said, “
Freya draped her arm around Catherine’s shoulders.The latter did not refuse. After all, it had been a long time since she went to a pub.……9:00 p.m.The two of them walked into the pub together.Catherine had not been in this environment for a long, long time. Being here reminded her of the simple and carefree life before she got married.However, not long after they started drinking, they were approached by a cocky young man dressed in a floral shirt.“Freya, what a coincidence that we meet again.” The man caressed Freya’s face with a sly smile.Freya’s face sank immediately and pushed his hand away. “Thomas Neeson, I’ve stated clearly that I’m not interested in you. Keep your hands off me.”Catherine was shocked that this man was Sarah Neeson’s elder brother.“Don’t say that. You might not be able to keep your hands off me once you've seen how great I’m in bed.” He continued to harass her with an evil smile on his face. “It’s your honor to be my woman.”“Thomas Neeson, I
“Shut up. Neeson Corporation would be destroyed under your leadership.” Charity grabbed Thomas’s shoulder and flipped him over hers. The man was mercilessly flung to the ground under the public gaze.Both Catherine and Freya were stunned. However, the latter was first to break the silence by applauding loudly. “You’re so awesome and cool!”Thomas was furious at being criticized and ridiculed by the crowd. “Charity, I will not let this go unsettled.”Then, he climbed up to his feet and stumbled out of the pub.“Thank you.” Catherine poured two glasses of red wine and handed one over to Charity.She had a good first impression of this woman, but tonight, she was really impressed.“Don’t worry. I was just passing by. The pub owner told me he was harassing women again, so I came to have a look.”Charity took a sip of the wine.“Nice one, sister!” Freya gave her a thumbs up. “I’ll surely go after you if you were a man.”“It’s not good for women to be too awesome,” Charity teased he
Shaun had just stepped out of the shower when Shelley approached him with a glass of milk. “Eldest Young Master, let me blow dry your hair for you.”She tried to reach out but the man quickly dodged. “No need for that.”He drank the glass of milk and said flatly, “Go downstairs. I’ll get you if I need you.”“But…” She could not hide the dissatisfaction in her eyes. “You shouldn’t be left alone in this condition. I can place a makeshift bed on the side…”“No.” He frowned before saying, “This is the room I share with my wife. I don’t like other women lingering around here.”“Sorry. I hadn’t thought about that.” She nodded, looking flustered. After leaving the bedroom, she bit her lips in annoyance. Shaun was not interested in her despite her and Sarah Neeson’s similar appearance. However, it did not matter. She was halfway through her goal anyway.The corners of her lips curled into a cold smile as she glanced at the glass of milk.After Shelley left, Shaun got back in bed to ch
Shaun pursed his thin lips before he finally started the car in silence.They arrived at the bar very soon. Thomas, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, immediately walked over, clutching his injured waist. “Eldest Young Master, they are still dancing inside.”Within seconds, the three women staggered out from the pub with their arms around each other’s shoulders. Judging from their flushed cheeks, they must have had a lot of alcohol.“I haven't drunk enough. Let’s keep drinking! I can do three more rounds.” Freya raised her hands high up in the air. “I won’t go home until I’m drunk.”“Let’s have some lobsters and wine.” Charity nodded.Catherine agreed, “We can keep drinking at my villa until dawn.”“Awesome! Men are sh*t! Let them go!”“Sh*t! Goodbye!”Shaun’s face was overcast.Well, well, well, she even called him shit behind his back. He walked over to pull Catherine into his arms. “Come home with me.”He initially wanted her to stay outside for a while fo
“Limits? What are your limits?" Catherine sneered when she saw Thomas standing behind Shaun. "Why did you bring him here? To stand up for him again?”Thomas immediately moaned in pain. "Young Madam Hill, you really should stay away from Charity. She has a purpose for befriending you.""Thomas, I really regret that I didn’t hit you hard enough just now." Charity narrowed her beautiful eyes.Thomas was so frightened that he immediately hid behind Shaun. "Eldest Young Master, look at how arrogant she is to threaten me in front of you.""Charity, it looks like I've been too kind to you." Shaun's face was as cold as ice. "I’m warning you now to stay away from my wife. Otherwise, say goodbye to being the president of Neeson Corporation."Charity's pretty face turned pale as she bit her lips. However, Catherine grabbed her hand and looked at Shaun with her head high. "She doesn't need to befriend me. From now on, I’ll be the one who’ll befriend her. She is the first good friend I’ve made
“Catherine, stop. Let's go home.” Shaun became more flustered the calmer Catherine behaved.However, she remained rooted to the ground. The corners of her lips curled into a mocking smile. "Because of your ex-girlfriend, I can't be friends with Charity. Just marry Shelley if you can’t stop thinking about that woman. I can divorce you.""Are you done? You’re the person I love now." His head was hurting so much. He really did not know what else he could say to convince her."Yes, you love me, but it's definitely not as much as you love Sarah."Catherine sighed bitterly. "If Shelley, who resembles Sarah, can replace me today, then what happens when someone else who resembles her more comes along one day? I’m just someone who can be replaced at any time, and I don't want to continue this kind of relationship anymore. I’m sorry. Maybe I shouldn't say this because of your condition, but I can't stay by your side. Take care of yourself.""No, Cathy, you are unique and no one can replace
