”D-Damien, help me.” Intimidated by Joel’s twisted face, Nicola quickly hid behind Damien.Joel turned around to glare at his brother. “Damien, I really didn’t expect this from you. It’s heartbreaking. We’re brothers! I’ve given you everything you wanted since we were young, and this is how you repay me? You’re a monster!”“B*stard! How dare you do something disgraceful like this? Have you no shame?”Old Master Yule smashed the glass onto the ground in a fit of rage. The Yule family had become the laughing stock of the entire business industry.“Damien, I’m really disappointed in you,” Old Madam Yule said bitterly. “Nicola, I’ve misjudged you. I wouldn’t have let Joel marry you if I knew.”Nicola replied grudgingly, “I loved Joel more than anyone could imagine, so much that I had no choice but to do this so that I could marry him…”“You show your love… by carrying my brother’s child, so you can marry me?” Joel began laughing so much that tears formed in his eyes. “How unfortunate
The shareholders of the Yule Corporation became flustered upon hearing that. President Lowe was the first one who stepped forward awkwardly. “President Yule, these are your family's private affairs. There’s no need to air your dirty laundry on the corporation's 30th anniversary.”“That’s right. Melanie has contributed so much for the corporation in recent years,” the other shareholders echoed.Joel was extremely disappointed.All these people had been working with him since the beginning of time, yet now they sided with Damien just for some personal gains.“Dad, don’t get upset.” Catherine patted him on the shoulder with a smile before she turned around to look at the shareholders. “Well, does it mean that all of you support Damien and Melanie as the president and CEO of the Yule Corporation?”The group of men fell silent. They must have received a lot of benefits from Damien in recent years, which positioned them all on the same boat as the aforementioned.“Alright then, Dad. We
In a matter of minutes, the Yule Corporation’s scandals had gone viral.[Breaking news! The President of Yule Corporation had an affair with his sister-in-law. The illegitimate child is a tool for stealing the elder brother’s wealth.][Unbelievable. I watched the live stream earlier. A pr*ck like Damien Yule even received support from the company’s executives. He must’ve bribed them a lot. I think this should be looked into.][Haha, birds of the same feather flock together. Perhaps they don’t think the affair is problematic.][People always say that the super-rich people are sick in the mind. I believe it now.] [What’s wrong with those who stayed behind in the celebration? To show their support to Damien?][No way. It makes me sick just looking at products of the Yule Corporation. Join me in boycotting them starting from today]“…”Numerous guests could not bring themself to stay after reading the comments. “Um… I think it’s better that we leave.”“Ah, I suddenly remembered I
[I don’t understand. Nicola slept with Damien first so why did she insist on marrying Joel later? To ruin his life?][I’m not sure. Damien is crippled and he doesn’t have much inheritance in the family. Joel has always been the president of Yule Corporation. The Wicks family was unknown in Canberra before Nicola married Joel. Today, they’re one of the city’s most wealthy families.][I heard that Joel fell into a deep coma after an accident three years ago and he almost lost his life. I bet Nicola and Damien were behind that too.][I mentioned three years ago that Nicola could be the mastermind behind it but no one believed me.]“...”“Ahh, Catherine you b*tch!” Nicola yelled hysterically without caring for her manners.Charlie had his jaw clenched as well. It appeared that Catherine had already anticipated this to happen.Honestly, he would not have married Melanie if he knew she was Damien’s daughter. He had thought of slowly taking over Yule Corporation after her promotion.C
Enraged, Joel was about to yell back when Catherine pushed him away softly. She glanced at Shaun’s handsome face nonchalantly. “You’re right. I lied to you.”“Very well. Who was in it as well? Freya? Or the people from the hospital?” Shaun felt like a fool the more he thought of how she had deceived him for the past three years.She cocked her head before twitching her lips into a smile. “President Hill, if I hadn’t pretended to be dead then, I’m afraid I would’ve really been burned into ashes.”“What do you mean?”Despite the dazzling smile hanging on her face, the sarcasm hidden beneath filled his narrowed eyes with indifference.“I’m sure you know what I mean.”Catherine smiled before retrieving a pair of sunglasses from her purse and putting it on. She instantly looked fashionable and confident. “I was just a normal person yet you threw me into the mental hospital. Every day, I was forcefully injected and fed with medicine. I was trapped indoors, living a life more restricted
Shaun was still standing in front of the car.Catherine poked her head out the window. “President Hill, do you mind?”He looked at her strangely. The woman’s sunglasses sat elegantly on her beautiful nose. He shifted his gaze downward to look at her arrogant yet delicate lips.It was as if this woman had changed completely.She felt unfamiliar to him yet he could not bring himself to take his eyes off her.Shaun had no idea what was happening, as he was not a man easily seduced by women’s beauty.A few seconds later, he finally stepped aside.The white sports car sped past him.Hadley returned to him. “Eldest Young Master Hill, it’s time to go.”“Look into how she faked her death and left the country. I want to know who helped her.” Shaun turned around to glare at his assistant all of a sudden.The latter shuddered instinctively and quickly nodded.Shaun read Catherine’s Facebook post after getting into the car.This woman… was impressive to have struck first and gained the
A few minutes later, Shaun gently pushed Sarah away. “I’ll sleep in the study.”“Shaunic, why? How are we going to have children like this?” she said worriedly, “Are you disgusted by me because of what happened when I was abroad…”“No, I’m not. I’m the problem.” A look of frustration flashed across his face. He had no idea what was wrong. In the past three years, he clearly knew that he loved Sarah yet he was almost repulsed every time they tried to take things further.Sometimes, he even thought that he had some sort of illness that prevented him from being intimate with women.Sarah had tried to treat this problem through several treatment sessions yet they were to no avail.Her face was washed over with frustration. “Why don’t you… go get yourself checked by the doctors? I really can’t take it anymore. I want you…”She took off her dress and threw herself at him.In that split second, he pushed her away almost immediately by instinct. The woman who did not expect this fell to
After ending the phone call, Sarah got dressed and walked down the stairs. Shaun was standing in front of the French windows. His slender and beautiful fingers were wrapped around a glass of red wine. The window clearly reflected his handsome face. A man with his impeccable looks would make any woman want to do bad things to him on a night like this.A look of frustration flashed across Sarah’s face.Shaun was the most charming man she had ever seen yet he had problems in that department.“You’re going out?” He looked at her purse.“Yup, I’m going to meet my friends. I’m getting tired of this.” She tucked her hair behind her ear to reveal her sad face.His face was washed over with embarrassment. “Sorry. I promise… that I’ll see a doctor.”“Um… Sure.” She was so busy thinking about dealing with Lucifer that she merely mumbled a reply and quickly left the villa.A pin-drop silence fell upon the room. Shaun lowered his head to the ground and finished the wine in a gulp. A chubby
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
