“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
“...No, but take the medicine quickly. I’ll leave after you eat it.”Shaun knew that he was acting like a scumbag, but Sarah had waited for him for more than ten years. He could not let her down again.“Fine, I’ll eat it. I’ll eat it now.” Catherine turned around agitatedly. She popped open the pill and stuffed it into her mouth, and threw the rest at his face. She shouted, “Can you get lost now?”She pushed him out and slammed the door shut.Shaun felt bad, and he stood at the door for a long time before he left in disappointment.Unbeknownst to him, Catherine had already dried her tears and prepared dinner not long after he left.After all, it took a lot of effort to act and cry for a scumbag.Once she had her meal, Freya called her all the way from the United States. “How’s the plan going?”“Okay, I guess. I’m taking it one step at a time, but I feel like I’ve been pushing too hard recently. Sarah should be making her move soon, and Damien and Melanie have been way too quiet
“Okay, I’ll bring her home.”Shaun carried Sarah, and Yael tagged along with them.When he was about to place Sarah in the car, she suddenly stretched out her arms and wrapped them around his neck. Amid her sobs, she said, “Don’t let go of me, Shaunic. Don’t leave me. I know I’m filthy, and that’s why you don’t want to touch me.”“No. It’s not what you think.” Shaun’s heart sank.“You don’t have to explain. I understand.” She covered his mouth. “Actually, I know you’ve slept at Catherine’s place for the past two nights. You lied to me, saying that you went on a business trip, but it’s alright. It’s my fault because I can’t satisfy you. I don’t mind being the shameful girlfriend forever as long as you’re happy. It doesn’t matter as long as I can stay by your side and see you every day when I open my eyes.“I love you. How can I possibly love you so much? When I met you for the very first time back then, I fell deeply in love with you. As long as I can marry you, I can die without r
Shaun averted his eyes without bothering to look at Catherine. He turned around and said to Yael, “Search for it and force her to sign. I’ll wait outside.”With that, he walked out.“Alright.”Yael was delighted. She had been holding a grudge against this mistress for a long time.She extended her hand and pretended to frisk her. She even took off Catherine’s knitted coat, revealing her thin camisole. Since Catherine was pressed onto the floor, much of her body was revealed.Since there were a few men beside her, Catherine lifted her head in humiliation. “You…” Before she could finish her sentence, Yael covered her mouth. Only her moans could be heard. Yael was worried that Shaun would come in, so she quickly grinned and said, “Miss Jones, don’t waste your breath scolding me. I just need to get the marriage certificate.”As Yael was speaking, she slid her hand across Catherine’s jeans and muttered, “It’s inside, right?”Once she said that, she pulled Catherine’s jeans down,
