Logan lamented. “Boss, Sarah has been with so many men. I don’t think I’ll be able to stand it if I’m a man, so it’s quite impressive that Shaun Hill can take it. But Sarah is really amazing. She has to accompany Lucifer on one hand and Shaun on the other. She must have quite a lot of energy.”“Alright. That’s enough.”Catherine frowned.“Don’t be too upset. He’s just a disgusting scumbag.” Logan thought that she was upset.“You’re overthinking. What you said made me feel disgusted since the scumbag kissed me last night. Go buy a box of contraceptives for me…”Catherine immediately threw him some cash.Logan blinked and shifted himself away from her.“What are you doing?” Catherine asked. “No… Boss, I heard that Lucifer’s private life is very messy. There are a lot of sick women over there. Lucifer got with Sarah, Sarah got with Shaun, and Shaun got with you…” Logan had a mix of emotions. “You should be careful.”“...”Catherine almost choked. If not for the fact that she wa
“President Yule, I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Walter feigned composure and said with a bitter face, “I’ve been with you for ten years, and I’ve always been loyal to you.”“That’s right. It’s been ten years.” Catherine nodded.“Although a secretary’s salary is only 20 thousand dollars a month, my dad always gives you a million for your year-end bonus. He also gave you a house, a car, and sent your two children to the best schools, yet this is how you repay him. Walter, you can deny it, but we have records of you poisoning Dad. You probably don’t know, but we’ve installed hidden cameras at every corner of the house.”Catherine then took out a miniature surveillance camera from the display case in the living room.Walter’s face turned pale.“I’ll give you another chance. Who instructed you?” Catherine’s beautiful eyes were cold.“No… no one instructed me. I did it myself,” Walter mumbled and shook his head. “I hate Chairman Yule. I… I hate that he’s so stingy with his sa
Walter immediately wilted.“I know Nicola has evidence of your embezzlement, but you embezzled from Yule Corporation. As long as Chairman Yule doesn’t pursue it, the evidence will be useless.”Catherine bent down in front of him. Although her tone was gentle, it was one that could make people fearful.“If you don’t cooperate with us, we’ll send you straight to the police station and check the company’s illegal accounts over the years. Since you’ll be charged with poisoning and embezzlement, I’m afraid you won’t be able to get out of jail for the rest of your life. If you were only instructed to poison someone and didn’t cause death, you’d only be locked up for two years at most. Think about your wife and two children.”Walter’s eyes trembled slightly.Catherine continued to push. “Let me remind you that your wife is in her thirties. If you’re in jail for too long, she might take your money and remarry. By then, the children will no longer be yours. Won’t that be a waste of your li
“Shut up.”The always polite and dignified Shaun was so angry that he cursed. There was no trace of his calm and collected temperament.He found that since Catherine came back, he had been fuming with rage every single day. He doubted if he could live past forty years old. “You hurt me in the afternoon.”“Is that so?” Catherine looked at him as if to say ‘you’re so useless’. “Who would’ve thought? You look so big and tall. I didn’t expect that your certain area to be so weak. It’s just a bump.”Shaun was furious. “A bump? You clearly want me to die childless.”Catherine furrowed her pretty eyebrows. “Don’t worry. If you do end up childless, I’ll take responsibility.”Shaun laughed sardonically. “Do I look like I want your responsibility? If I stay with a vicious woman like you, it’ll only turn me off.”Catherine blinked and said with an innocent face, “I think you’ve misunderstood me. When I said I’ll take responsibility, I don’t mean that I’ll take care of your lifelong happine
“Shaun Hill, let go of me.”Catherine slapped him hard on the back.However, Shaun acted as if he did not hear her. He carried her to the parking lot, where he opened the car door and threw her in.“Shaun, what are you doing?” Catherine got up, but Shaun pressed down on her shoulder with one hand and tore open her shirt with the other.Catherine was dumbfounded. “Shaun, you’re insane. Don’t you love Sarah? Are you sure you want to betray her time and time again?”By then, Shaun was so mad with anger that he did not listen to her at all.“Didn’t you say you hate me for being filthy? You find me disgusting, don’t you? Then, I’ll disgust you even more.”“...”… 11:00 p.m. The black car stopped at Hacket Institute’s parking lot.Shaun glanced at the back seat. Catherine had fallen asleep against the window.With her wavy hair draped over her shoulders, the woman squeezed her eyes when he turned on the lights in the car. The dim light on her small face gave off a charm that no
When Shaun left, he turned on his phone and saw several missed calls.He opened WhatsApp. Half an hour ago, he had sent a message to Sarah. [I have an urgent business trip in the evening and won’t be back. Sleep early.]He held his head in pain and called Chester. “Are you asleep yet? Come out for a drink.”“I’m not free. I worked an extra night shift yesterday, and I’m very tired.” Chester refused.“Then, I’ll come over to your place,” Shaun said unhappily.“...”When he arrived at Chester’s villa, Chester was still asleep and snoring.Shaun pulled him up from the bed. “Get up and drink.”The tousled hair did not affect how handsome Chester looked. He gritted his teeth and said, “What’s up with you this time? It’s enough that you didn’t go back last night, but you’re here tonight as well. Aren’t you afraid of Sarah having foolish ideas… Wait, what’s that smell on you?”Chester was speechless. “It’s a woman’s smell. Is it Catherine?”“How do you know it’s her’s?” Shaun’s eyes
Chester looked up and told him, “Although I’ve dated many girls in the past, and outsiders know me as a playboy, I’ve always ended a relationship before starting another.”“Give me some ideas.” Shaun had always been decisive, so he was rarely this conflicted.Chester reminded, “Don’t make things hard for me. I think of Sarah as a younger sister and wish for her happiness. But to be honest, if you refuse to touch her, that’s troublesome too because you can’t keep both of them by your side. Besides, Sarah has been with you for so long, and you’ve avoided her until now. It’s troublesome no matter what.”Shaun frowned. In the end, he picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Chester’s again.Poor Chester accompanied him to drink all night.Shaun slept until noon the next day, and he woke up dizzy. After getting Hadley to send his clothes over, he took a shower before heading to the company. He saw a hospital along the way and thought of something. Hence, he had Hadley stop so he
The color was the same, but on him, it looked elegant and noble. It was as if he was standing on a dazzling red carpet, and no one could tear their eyes away from him.From the smoke, he lifted his clear and deep eyes.Catherine froze when her eyes met his.At that moment, the little boy in the neighbor’s house opened the door to take out the trash. He lifted his head and winked at Catherine with a smile. “Lady, you’re finally back. Your boyfriend has been waiting for you here for an hour. I saw him when I came back from school.”“He’s not my boyfriend,” Catherine said in embarrassment.“No need to be embarrassed. I saw you guys smooch last time.” The boy giggled and quickly shut the door after he finished speaking.Through the door, Catherine heard the mother reprimanding her son. “You little brat. I told you to take out the trash. What nonsense are you talking about?”“I wasn’t talking nonsense. When I was studying yesterday morning, I went downstairs with that man in the elev
