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
Joel was kicking himself. Despite having worked in the business industry for years, he still ended up barking up the wrong tree. He felt the need to make it up to Catherine in the future. He must not leave her to suffer. The next day.Catherine took Joel to a newly-opened yet reputable hospital in Canberra for a medical check-up. The check-up results were out in the morning. The doctor frowned upon looking at the report. “Mr. Yule, there are toxins in your blood.”“What?” Joel was shocked. “B-But the check-up I did three months ago showed that I was normal.”The doctor shook his head. “It’s chronic poisoning, which began to take place at least two years ago. Do you experience coughs, headaches, and chest tightness every now and then?”“Yes.” Joel quickly nodded. “I went to consult a doctor earlier. After giving me a body check-up, the doctor claimed that it could be due to the side effects of the accident and my age…”“I’m not sure why the doctor who treated you previously w
After parting with Joel, Catherine received another call.“Sarah has left.”Catherine looked at the time that read 10:00 p.m. “Tsk. It’s so late already. She’s quite capable, huh?”“Yeah.” The person on the other end laughed and said, “I wonder if Shaun can usually satisfy her.”When Catherine was about to reply, the elevator suddenly stopped on the third floor. Shaun, who was sturdily built, walked out with Hadley. He was exuding an irresistible sense of mature masculinity. When the three of them looked at each other, Shaun froze.Catherine’s pretty face turned strange after she glanced at the board behind him that read ‘andrology unit’. “He probably can’t satisfy her. I have something to deal with now. Bye.”She pressed the ‘end call’ button.As soon as Shaun heard the word ‘satisfy’, his handsome face subconsciously turned somber. “What are you looking at? I’m just here to accompany Hadley to see the doctor…”After being made a scapegoat, Hadley was speechless.He felt
“Get out.” Shaun glowered at Hadley before striding out of the elevator.There was nothing more embarrassing than coming across his ex-wife when he visited the andrology unit. Damn it!…Catherine drove to Hudson Corporation immediately after she left the hospital.After three years, the familiar faces at the front desk had already been replaced with new faces.As soon as Catherine stepped in, the receptionist immediately stopped her. “Who are you? Have you made an appointment?”“No.” Catherine took off her sunglasses, revealing her exquisitely beautiful face. “But I’d like to meet your president.”The receptionist was stunned for a moment before scoffing. “Who are you to meet our president without making an appointment in advance? Are you under the impression that our president will simply meet anyone who’s well dressed? You’re not a celebrity like Cindy Turner.”“Cindy Turner?” Catherine raised her brows.“Cindy is our company’s new ambassador. Get out,” the receptionist r
Sarah unconsciously compared herself to Catherine. No matter how much effort she put into taking care of her skin, a few wrinkles were already visible below the corners of her eyes considering that she was turning 30 soon.She finally understood why Shaun had fallen for Catherine back then.She had wondered about Catherine’s whereabouts the last few days. She was shocked to find out that Catherine’s face had been treated.Having said that, what was the point? She had complete control over Shaun now, so Catherine was considered nothing.At the thought of it, Sarah curved her mouth into a smug smile.She pretended that she did not see Catherine and directly headed to the elevator.“Where are you going, Sarah? This is my office, isn’t it?” Catherine pulled Sarah’s long hair all of a sudden.Surprisingly, Catherine was dragging Sarah down to the floor without being concerned about her own image. With that, Sarah yelled in pain.“What are you doing?” The woman in black moved nimbly
“I didn’t expect that either. She usually looks so dignified, generous, and gentle that I treated her as a goddess.”“Hey, keep it down. She’s our president. She’s going to fire us if she hears this.”“...”Sarah’s face turned ghastly. Ever since she was publicly known to be Shaun’s girlfriend, everyone had flattered her and treated her as a goddess. She had not experienced this kind of humiliation.“Catherine, I’m going to sue you for accusing me if you comment further.”“Suit yourself. I came here today to take a look at my company. I’ll organize a general meeting tomorrow. I’ll gather all the company’s shareholders here and inform each of them about it.”Catherine pointed at Sarah using her index finger, her nail painted with red nail polish. “As for you, you’ll be the first person I fire.”Sarah reacted as if she had heard a joke. She bent over and burst out laughing with tears almost coming out of her eyes. “Catherine, are you under the impression that you hold an importa
