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
“What I said is the truth. Otherwise, why would there be women who cheat on their husbands, not only mentally but spiritually as well? Isn’t it because they can’t bear the loneliness?” Chester took a long drag on his cigarette. “As for the 200 million dollars that Sarah gave to Lucifer, I reckon she was threatened.”There was no doubt that Chester was the calmest one among the three men at that moment.Shaun quickly realized it too.If Sarah just wanted to have sex with that man, she would not have given him 200 million dollars.“Let’s talk about this matter again after she comes out.”A moment later, Shaun opened the car door and got in.Too many things had happened today. He just wanted to cool down for a while and think about his and Sarah’s future.A few minutes later, he called Hadley. “I need all the information on Sarah’s case.”...Sarah spent only a day and a half in the police station.However, that day and a half felt like a year. She was interrogated by the police
“Shaunic, I didn’t lie to you on purpose. I was forced to do so. That person was one of the criminals who kidnapped me back in the States. You should know how painful that incident was for me. I’m not clean anymore, yet that person appeared again like a demon. “He said he had indecent pictures and videos of my past. I had no choice. I was afraid that you would be disgusted with me if you found out, so I gave him money. I gave him 200 million dollars but he wasn’t satisfied. He wanted me to have sex with him.”Sarah crouched down and cried bitterly as she spoke, “I felt disgusted. Every time he touched me, it felt so repulsive that I wanted to puke. Shaunic, I made a mistake. I’ve done you wrong, but it wasn’t intentional. I love you. You were already so repulsed by me that you would puke whenever I touched you. I was scared that you'd hate me even more if you saw the pictures.”“Get up.”Shaun extended his hands to help her up.Sarah flung herself into his embrace. She wailed whi
Behind the banana tree, Charity drew the leaves and walked out.She wore a discreet smile. “I didn’t expect Young Master Jewell to be so well-liked by girls. Girls these days are really bold and proactive. I’m old.”Looking at Charity’s pretty face, Chester could not help but smirk. “If you’re considered old, I’m even older.”“For men, the older, the more charming,” Charity said.“Really?” Chester suddenly grabbed hold of her hand and pulled it. “Do you think I’m charming?”Charity made a point to size him up. A moment later, a look of disdain washed over her face. “Not in the slightest.”Chester was exasperated. “Even if I’m not, I won’t allow you to escape my clutches.”As soon as he finished speaking, he leaned forward domineeringly and locked lips with Charity.Ever since she quit the entertainment industry, she hardly wore lipstick. He was not sure of the brand of the lipstick she applied today, but it was soft and smelled good.“Go away. You may kiss your girl…”Charity
A grand wedding was held at the seaside.The two couples exchanged vows, kissed, and promised to be lifelong companions. It was the happiest moment of their lives.When Charity brought the ring to Catherine, Catherine asked in a low voice, “Do you want me to toss the bouquet to you?” “No.”Charity rejected outright.However, Catherine did not force her. After all, she could tell that Charity was not as eager as Freya to have a wedding.Frankly, Catherine found it tiring to prepare for the wedding.“Alright. Although you don’t want it, it doesn’t mean he feels the same.” Catherine darted a playful glance at Chester.He was outstandingly handsome among the groomsmen.Some attendees of the wedding were under the impression that Chester and Charity were a couple, while some others were unsure. There were even a few pretty foreign girls who took the initiative to flirt with Chester, whereas some girls took out their phones to take photos of him. Charity took a glimpse of Chester
Charity was speechless.It was true that Chester could not do it with her.Was that why her good friends could look so calm even after hearing that she had spent a night with Chester?“What gives? Could he have done it with you?” As soon as Freya noticed that Charity was quiet, she asked with interest and curiosity.“You’re overthinking it.”Catherine said with a discreet smile, “Even if there’s something wrong with that part of his, he could’ve done it if he wanted to.”“Wow. Sure enough, you know everything, Cathy.” Freya chuckled. “Charity, you can get Cathy to teach you one day.”However, Catherine still felt a little embarrassed, and her face flushed red. “Shaun used to have a mental block in that aspect too, but he would still make me happy. If Shaun knows that, I believe Chester knows better.” After all, no one could beat Chester when it came to his experience with women.Charity was silent for a while before she said, “It doesn’t matter to me. I’ll let nature take its
“You haven’t answered my question.” Charity asked in annoyance, “Why were you in a hurry to get away from me?” A miserable look washed over Chester’s face. “If I hadn’t done that, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to get hold of myself.”Charity looked down at the lower part of Chester’s body. “Is it because… you can’t control it anymore?”Her directness caused Chester’s face to turn grim. “Charity, do you mean that I have no sexual urges? There were homosexual eunuchs in the past. Although that part of mine can’t function, I can still feel the necessary sensations. When I see your sexy side, I still have the urge to hug and kiss you.”Once Charity understood the situation, she felt slightly more relaxed.After all, she was a woman and was under the impression that she had lost her charm in front of Chester.“Charity, next time, can I…” Chester suddenly bit his tongue and stared at her. “Kiss you?”Charity’s pretty face instantly heated up.When had she stopped him from kis
Charity never knew that the three of them could sleep so soundly. When she sent Cal to sleep sometimes, he would always wake her up several times in the night. Moreover, she would worry that he would kick off his blanket, so she would hardly sleep well.However, with Chester around, she subconsciously felt more relaxed as she did not need to care about everything on her own.Just as the dawn broke the next day, she was woken up by a kiss. “Charity, it’s about time to wake up. You’re going to be a bridesmaid today. You need to wake up early.”While waking her up, Chester kissed her for his own advantage.Charity opened her eyes in a daze. She still felt so sleepy that she did not want to move.“Are you planning to lie in?”As it was rare to see Charity so lazy, Chester secretly laughed. “Let me help you get changed.”By the time he staggered to her wardrobe and took out the bridesmaid’s outfit, Charity had woken up with a startle. “Why are you moving around? You should lie do
Charity was in the bathtub until she felt sleepy. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard Chester’s deep, gentle voice. “Charity, wake up…”She opened her eyes to see Chester’s face close up. Charity was exhausted. She woke up groggily, and her brain felt like it was not working. She rubbed her eyes. “How did I fall asleep?”Her hand felt slightly wet, and only then did she realize she was lying in the bathtub naked. Her body’s curves were vaguely visible under the red rose petals. Meanwhile, Chester was standing beside the bathtub with a fresh towel in his hand. That scene suddenly hit Charity like lightning, and the grogginess she was feeling immediately disappeared.She wanted to hide, but there was nowhere to hide in the bathtub. Her face blushed in an instant. “Who allowed you to enter without knocking? Get out.”“I called you, but you didn’t hear me.”Chester lied without flinching. “I came in because I was worried something happened to you. You’ve been in
“I should be the one asking you why you’re in my room,” Chester asked Charity as he raised his beautiful brows and smiled like a sly fox.“...”Charity glared at him. After exchanging glances with him for a few seconds, she carried her son and walked away.When she held the door handle, she felt a force grabbing her from behind.Chester stopped in his tracks and wrapped his hands around her slim waist. “Are you afraid that I’ll eat you up?”“You think you can do that, huh?” Charity turned around and glimpsed at the lower part of his body. “Can you do it now?”Chester’s handsome face stiffened, and a look of dejection washed over it.All of a sudden, Charity felt that she had gone too far by adding insult to injury.For a man, that was his greatest pride.“Since you know I can’t do that, what are you afraid of?” Chester gripped her waist. “Charity, stay here. All other rooms are occupied. If you don’t stay here, you have nowhere else to go.”Charity stomped on his foot. “Did y
“Suspect that the child is yours?” Shaun continued all of a sudden.Chester nodded.The more the child resembled him, the more afraid Chester was.He would rather the child bore a greater resemblance to Charity.Shaun glanced at Chester, who looked uneasy, and could not help but laugh. “As I said, onlookers see most of the game, and that saying is very true. Even Chase could tell that the child is yours at first glance. Do you think a clever person like Charity hasn’t noticed it?”Chester was momentarily stunned, and a thought flashed across his mind. He was a little perplexed, but he dared not give it a thought. “Do you mean…”“Perhaps she has found out about it long ago, but she just hasn’t exposed it.” Shaun said indifferently, “I even suspect my wife knows. Considering how smart she is, how could she not have guessed that Charity had used your sperm to get pregnant?”Chester revealed a strange expression, but he was holding on to some hope. “Maybe she didn’t guess it. They m
Catherine, Freya, and Charity were sitting together and chatting. When Chase went over, Catherine immediately asked protectively, “What’s wrong?” “Your husband is bullying me.” Chase hid behind Catherine and glanced at Shaun, who was walking over with a dark expression. “Move your paw off my wife,” Shaun warned with gritted teeth. If it were not for Catherine’s presence, he would have thrown Chase off the plane. “What are you doing?”Catherine glared at her husband. “Chase and I are friends. We’re besties. What’s with your attitude?”“That’s right.” Chase straightened his back with Catherine’s support. “I simply said you got lucky to be able to be a dad despite being so sc*mmy at first. Cathy even brought a set of twins back to you. I’m so much better than you guys, yet I still don’t have a girlfriend. Did I say something wrong? How unfair is this?”“Is he angry because of that?” Freya asked sarcastically. Chase nodded repeatedly. “Was I wrong?” Catherine threw the bag o
