“Okay, I’ll give you 1,000 dollars when you’re in the afterworld. You can use the money there.”Rodney grabbed one of Freya’s legs and dragged her over. Just as he was about to make his move, his phone rang.Freya quickly took the opportunity and kicked him in the face. Then, she ran away in a hurry.“Stop right there!”Rodney chased after her, but his phone kept ringing. He picked up the call annoyedly. “Spit it out. I’m in the middle of something.”“Oh, it looks like you aren’t done yet, Young Master Snow? Being with five women at night wasn’t enough for you, so you have to meet other women during the day as well?” A sarcastic voice was heard.Rodney looked at the caller ID. It was Jessica Snow. He shuddered in fear. “Big Sis, I didn’t know it was you.”“That’s enough. I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. Get back here quickly. Grandpa’s looking for you,” Jessica said coldly.Rodney was on the verge of crying. “Big Sis, last night was—”“Grandpa’s very angry,” Jessica rem
Old Master Snow said furiously, “Don’t think I don’t know why you drank until you got drunk last night. Wasn’t it because Sarah’s getting married today? The Snow family is a prominent family too. Why do we have such a disappointment like you? Is Canberra short of women that you have to chase after Sarah all day long? My grandchild is being treated as a backup in a relationship. Even if you don’t feel ashamed, your parents and I do.”“Grandpa, your words are too much. I’m not her backup. Sarah and I are good friends,” Rodney explained uncomfortably.Wendy said angrily, “If you’re just good friends, why do you go to her wherever and whenever she asks you to? Back then when you were studying, your diary was filled with Sarah’s name too.”“Mom, you’re being too much. You even peeped at my diary.” Rodney was infuriated.“You’re my son. I don’t want you to be treated as a fool by others,” Wendy said agitatedly.“I turned a blind eye before, but Shaun is already getting married to her. Y
At a seven-star seaside hotel, a wedding of the century was being held.It was 11:48 a.m. when Catherine and Joel appeared together.“Isn’t that Catherine and Joel? Why did the father and daughter come?”“The Yule family and the Hill family are old acquaintances, so it’s normal that Joel was invited. But it’s unexpected that Catherine would come. She’s Shaun’s ex-wife, after all.”“Tsk tsk, an ex-wife attending her ex-husband’s wedding. This is interesting.”“...”The whispers of the guests heightened the atmosphere to the maximum.Shaun, who was meeting the guests on the lawn, heard everyone’s whispers and turned back to look. Catherine was walking over in a plain dress.There were light green leaves embroidered on her dress. When the sunlight shone on her dress, it radiated a beautiful, blinding gold color. It also accentuated her curvy figure. She had an elegant temperament as if she was a vintage beauty.Shaun was in a daze for a moment. He knew that she was beautiful, but
Joel smiled as he explained, “I’ve already spoken with Isaac’s father to let both our children interact with each other more.”The Hill family members instantly went silent. Although the Stringer family could not compare to the Hill family, they were still a family of scholars. In addition, Catherine’s identity was different now. It was only normal that the Stringer family would want her to marry into their family.Even Valerie remained quiet, but she felt frustrated. She never expected that Catherine would still be so popular even after getting abandoned....On the other hand, although Shaun was having a toast with the guests, he kept looking over to what was happening on Catherine’s side. When Isaac went over, his grip on his wine glass tightened involuntarily.“Shaun, Chester.”Suddenly, Rodney appeared in a hurry. He was still wearing his clothes from yesterday. He reeked of alcohol, and his shirt was crumpled. Chester glanced at him in disdain. “Look at your appearance. Y
“Are you sure you don’t recognize him?” The inspector showed her Lucifer’s picture. “After our investigation, we could confirm that this man had been living in an apartment that’s under your name. Not only that, you were frequently going in and out of that apartment a few days ago. We suspect that you shared an improper relationship with him.”Shaun’s expression was awful.What could be more embarrassing than a group of police accusing his bride of having an affair behind his back during his wedding ceremony?The guests were abuzz too. No one expected that they would witness such a shocking scene when attending a wedding ceremony. “Is it true? Is the police saying that Sarah was having an affair with that foreign man?”“That’s exactly what he meant.”“That’s impossible, right? I heard they’ve been in love for more than ten years. Besides, with Shaun’s condition and physique, does Sarah even need to find another man?”“Haha, maybe he can’t satisfy her.”“...”The guests’ discu
However, the police officer only felt disdain for Sarah from the bottom of his heart.He did not reveal everything out of respect to the Hill family.“Shaun, we should cooperate with the police’s investigation,” Old Master Hill said with a commanding voice, “If she’s innocent, the wedding will be held again a few days later. The Hill family isn’t short of money to hold another wedding. Nevertheless, the Hill family’s future young madam must be a woman with a clean record.”“Shaun, let’s do as your grandpa says.” Old Madam Hill nodded in agreement. They had never liked Sarah anyway. It was Shaun who insisted on marrying her, so they had no choice. Since the police were here and claiming that Sarah had an affair with another man, if it was proven to be true, they would never let Shaun proceed with the marriage.Even if Shaun were to marry Sarah, they had to investigate everything thoroughly.After all, it was Shaun’s second marriage. If he got married and divorced again, the Hill
Joel followed Catherine immediately when he saw that she was about to leave.Many guests gradually left as well after they saw someone take the lead.They could have a meal anywhere, but everyone just wanted to go out and gossip about whether Sarah had cheated on Shaun or not.When Old Master Hill saw the guests leaving one by one, he smashed a glass out of anger. “What a disgrace! This is the woman you insist on marrying!”“Grandpa, Sarah is being framed by someone else in this incident. I believe that she’s innocent.” Shaun tried to defend Sarah with a grim expression. “I knew her from when I was in the mental hospital. I understand Sarah well.”“No one can completely understand another person,” Lea suddenly said after she glanced at Mason as a hint. She had previously thought she knew Mason well, but she realized in recent years that she had never really seen through the person who had been sleeping by her side for more than 20 years.Shaun was her son. He might have followed
The blood flowing throughout Shaun’s body instantly turned cold.The scenes of Sarah waiting at home for him to return from work every day kept flashing in his mind. He recalled her lively, kind, and pure appearance. The police told him that Sarah would spend six to seven hours in the apartment with another man several times a week.Besides, her clothes were different when she came out of the apartment…Sarah said that man was her tenant. However, was it necessary to spend so much time with a tenant?Why would she lie to him?Actually, the reason was simple.If he could, he did not want to believe it at all.It turned out that he did not understand Sarah enough.He recalled himself saying confidently that he believed in her. Suddenly, he found the whole thing hilarious. Just the thought that Sarah had touched such a dirty man before made Shaun feel utterly relieved at that moment. Luckily, he never had sex with Sarah before.Not only him, but Rodney and Chester were both
