An annoyed look flashed across Yael’s eyes while the two men from Liona let go of Catherine nonchalantly. Catherine tried to stand up, but her legs were both aching and numb from being pressed for a long time. Her legs turned to jelly, and she fell.Shaun’s legs jerked as he had a sudden urge to go and support her. A moment later, however, he coldly tossed the divorce papers toward her. “Sign it and stop calling me cruel. Here’s 200 million dollars for you once we divorce.” “200 million dollars? Is it 100 million dollars per night?” Catherine sneered.Shaun became more irritated, and his tone sounded colder. “You’re overthinking it. I just don’t want you to pester me in the future. Hurry up and sign it. I don’t have all the time in the world.”“Alright.”Catherine took a pen and signed the papers.Shaun zoned out as he gazed at her hand. Ever since he learned that she was still alive, he had been talking about wanting to divorce her. Now that this moment had come, he did not f
Catherine smiled wanly and turned off the television.‘You’re happy now, but wait until the day you get married. I’ll send you a wonderful gift and let you know how it feels to fall from heaven.’...Meanwhile, on the other side.Nicola, Melanie, and Damien, who had been attacked by the public recently, were pleased to hear about the news.Nicola, in particular, laughed ferociously. “So what if Catherine is back? Shaun ended up marrying someone else anyway.”“Exactly. She even snatched Shaun from me previously. In the end, my marriage turned out to be better than hers.” Melanie’s anger simmered down.Nevertheless, Damien furrowed his brows. “The two of you should stop paying attention to trivial matters like this. What matters most now is to get Yule Corporation back as soon as possible.” Nicola gave him a disapproving look. “Don’t worry. Joel is getting weaker day by day. I’m sure he won’t focus his mind on Yule Corporation. He can probably live for another one and a half yea
“We’ve received a report regarding your attempt to poison someone.” The police immediately put Nicola in cuffs.Nicola was taken aback. She glared at Walter, only to find him kneeling on the floor with both hands on his head. “Dear officers, she was the one who made me do it. I was forced to do it. I was left with no choice…”He shook his head violently as he spoke.At that moment, Nicola began to be gripped by fear and realized that she had been deceived. “No. I don’t know what he’s saying. Walter, why are you accusing me? I told you to come here so that I could ask you something.” “Stop denying, Nicola.”Catherine supported Joel as they walked down from the second floor of the warehouse. Joel’s eyes were filled with resentment, and he wished he could skin Nicola alive. If he had not hidden and heard what Nicola had said just now, he would not have realized that the woman he had been living with for 20 years was this sickening. “I thought you were just secretly having an affair
After the news was out, it stirred quite a commotion online.[My goodness. What kind of a woman is Nicola? She married the president of Yule Corporation, messed around with his brother, and then had an affair with the secretary. What a cuckold President Yule is.][Does Damien know about it? He must be at a loss for words.][I bet this woman is having an affair with many other men.][I’m wondering if Melanie enjoys messing around like her mom, considering that she’s Nicola’s daughter. Even if Melanie didn’t cheat on Charlie now, he’ll be cuckolded sooner or later.][Casting aside Melanie’s resemblance with her mom, it’s not a good thing even if she resembles her dad. I believe Damien and Melanie are involved in poisoning Joel.][What a disgusting family. I feel sorry for the Campos family for being related to them.]“...”Melanie flew into a rage upon reading those comments. She flung the ashtray across the bedroom.“How dare you throw things around.” As soon as Charlie walked
“No, Dad. Mom isn’t this kind of person. There must be a misunderstanding,” Melanie explained as she shook her head. “Enough, Melanie. I caught wind of it from other people,” Joel said exasperatedly. “When the police barged in, your mom was pulling on Walter’s shirt in the warehouse in broad daylight. During Walter's interrogation by the police, he revealed that he has been having an affair with her for four to five years. They met each other once a month on average either in the hotel, car, or even outdoors.”A ghastly expression washed over Melanie’s face when she heard those words.Damien became more agitated as he continued to speak. He seemed like a wild animal that had lost control. Despite being crippled, he managed to smash everything around him. His eyes were filled with intense bitterness.“She has always looked down on me. She despises me for being a cripple.” Damien thumped his legs. “Because of her, I even killed Sheryl, went against the entire Yule family, and took a
“What a b*stard Charlie is.” Nicola choked. “You can ask Damien to assist you. When you take over Yule Corporation again, the Campos family will take your side.”“Dad and I will be waiting for you, Mom,” Melanie said tearfully.…In the hospital.Catherine was accompanying Joel to receive an IV infusion.Although seeing Nicola get arrested had allowed Joel to blow off steam, his health deteriorated again because he was agitated. He had since been sent to the hospital for treatment.It did not take long for Old Master Yule and Old Madam Yule to rush to the hospital. As soon as Old Madam Yule caught sight of Joel’s situation, tears began to pour down her face. “Nicola is insane. We treated her so well over the years. The accident you were met with three years ago must be related to her. Luckily, your dad and I asked Catherine to take care of you. Otherwise…”Those words sent shivers down Old Master Yule’s spine. Now that he thought about it, he expressed his sincere gratitude to C
“Melanie, hold me and kneel.” Damien persisted.Since Damien was her biological son, Old Madam Yule could not bear to see him kneel. “Your legs are crippled. How are you going to kneel? Hurry up and stand.”“Yes, my legs are crippled.” Damien lowered his head and burst into tears. “Ever since I was born, a lot of people have looked down on me just because of my disability. I’m grateful to Brother, but at the same time, I envy him. I like Nicola, but she’s not interested in me. Over the last decade or so, I’ve never loved anyone else except for her. I do everything for her without complaining. I thought she would fall for me after she got hold of Yule Corporation, but I was wrong. Only now have I come to understand her personality. Dad, Mom, Brother, it’s my fault.”Old Madam Yule was on the verge of crying. She could not resist saying, “It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have given birth to you and make you suffer so much with low self-esteem.”“Dad, Mom, you guys can blame me. It’s fi
“Catherine, since I’m in the hospital, I’ll let you handle some matters for me for the time being.” Joel suddenly patted Catherine on the back of her hand. “I’ll ask Assistant Church to report to you in the future.”Catherine’s head started to hurt. “Dad, are you forcing me to manage Yule Corporation?”“How am I forcing you?” Joel stared at her earnestly. “As my daughter and the young lady of Yule Corporation, you’ll no longer be labeled as the illegitimate daughter. You deserve to be with any man in the whole of Australia. Sarah can’t compare to you either.” Joel’s intention finally hit her.A warm feeling grew in her.Needless to say, Joel must have found out that Shaun was going to get married, so he did want her to compare herself. Considering that Catherine was the Eldest Young Lady and soon-to-be successor of Yule Corporation, Sarah could not beat her in terms of honor and status. No matter how great Sarah was, she was just a psychologist. Neeson Corporation would have long
