Zion Residence.Once Shaun saw the kiss emoji, he felt a surge of excitement inside him. His Adam’s apple bobbed, causing him discomfort for some inexplicable reason.He lay down, imagining Catherine kissing him.At that moment, he suddenly sat up on the bed and messaged Catherine four words: [I want it tomorrow.] Then, he ran to the bathroom to take a cold shower.He had never been aroused by Sarah despite being with her for a long time. Never in his wildest dreams did he think that a simple emoji from Catherine would make him burn with excitement. He gave a bitter laugh.When he came out of the bathroom, his phone rang again.Yael called him. “Eldest Young Master Hill, aren’t you coming? Miss Neeson is crying in the hospital. She refuses to get bandaged.”Shaun was somehow annoyed. “It’s her body, not mine!”Yael panicked when he screamed at her. “But Miss Neeson really needs you now, Eldest Young Master Hill. These days when you haven’t been around, she hasn’t been able to
“Shaunic, I miss you so badly.” Sarah nestled in Shaun’s arms, her tears wetting his shirt. “I’ve been reflecting on myself these days. I was too silly and foolish. I swear that I won’t wrong you anymore. Come back to me. I really miss you.”Shaun narrowed his eyes and carried her to the bed. After that, he turned around and said to the doctor outside, “Come in and treat her.”“No. If you don’t promise me, I won’t get treated.” Sarah struggled in agitation.At the sight of her expression, Shaun’s eyes flashed with annoyance. His handsome face slowly revealed a sense of sternness. “Enough. Stop using your body to threaten me.”He had no idea why Sarah had become so impudent and unreasonable. She was even threatening him now, which was the tactic he hated most.It was his first time using such a grim tone to speak to Sarah. After being dazed for a moment, she began to weep more. “I hate to behave like this too. I hate what kind of a person I am now, but what can I do? Do I just allo
“Are you done?”Shaun lost his temper. “That’s her reputation. I have no responsibility for it.”“You’ve been with her for over ten years. If not you, then who’s supposed to take responsibility for it?” Rodney asked furiously.For the first time in his life, Shaun felt that his relationship with Sarah made him feel completely drained.He just did not want to marry Sarah. What was so difficult about it?Was he the one who had gotten a man to force himself upon Sarah in the States? Was he the one who made Sarah and Lucifer sleep together?No.“Rodney, if you like her so much, go ahead and marry her. Don’t come to me all the time just to force me.”Shaun strode toward the door as he felt like smoking.After glancing at Sarah’s pale expression, Rodney could not help but follow Shaun out. He gripped Shaun’s arm and whispered, “Do you think that I don't want to marry her? The thing is, she’s only in love with you. You’re the one she wants to be with. Shaun, you can’t pass her to s
When Catherine was preparing breakfast for Suzie and Freya in the kitchen, Freya shouted from outside all of a sudden.Then, Freya walked into the kitchen with her phone. “Cathy, I’m going to show you something. Don’t be mad.”Catherine grabbed the phone and looked at it. Today’s news headline was ‘Sarah Injured, Young Master Hill Immediately Rushed To The Hospital. Their Break-up Rumors Quashed.’When she clicked open the video, the reporter gave a detailed explanation of the news.“Young Master Hill and Sarah’s wedding was canceled all of a sudden previously, and there was no news about it later. Rumors about their break-up had been spreading like wildfire. However, our reporter, who kept watch at the hospital last night, happened to learn that Sarah was admitted to the hospital. Shortly after, Young Master Hill rushed to the hospital with a somber look, probably because he was worried about Sarah’s condition. It wasn’t until seven o’clock in the morning that our reporter saw You
Shaun stared at Hadley grimly.Hadley was speechless.What had he done wrong? All he was asking for was a signature. Indeed, being Eldest Young Master Hill’s assistant was getting tougher.“Pass me the document.”Shaun slowly opened his mouth while giving him a death stare.Hadley handed it to him. It was only after Shaun signed it that Hadley said, “By the way, there’s one more thing, Eldest Young Master Hill. You’ve made the news for visiting Sarah in the hospital last night.”Hadley clicked open the news and showed it to Shaun. “Now that you’re pursuing Ms. Jones, I think if she sees this piece of news, she might feel… some disappointment.”“Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”After Shaun watched the video, his face turned grim straight away. “Which reporter is it?”“It’s the reporter from Sun Weekly. The news organization always reports trivial matters that happen in society. There are always reporters keeping watch in the hospital.”Shaun gritted his teeth. “I’m giving you
“Shaunic, I’m not feeling well. Let’s talk about it sometime later.” Once Sarah caught sight of the title deed in the folder, she had a sinking feeling deep down. She quickly feigned feeling unwell and lay down.“Sarah, stop running away from it.” Shaun did not feel like dragging the matter on anymore, so he acted ruthlessly. “This is the title deed to the seaside villa. Also, I’ll compensate you with one duplex apartment and ten commercial properties. Here’s a card with 100 billion dollars inside, which is enough for you to live a luxurious life.”“Stop it. I won’t break up with you.” Sarah spilled the glass of hot water beside her in agitation and consequently burned her hand. “Miss Neeson…” Yael was so shocked that she immediately pressed the bell to call the doctor over.“My hand hurts. It hurts so badly.” Sarah began to cry in pain.Yael advised Shaun, “Eldest Young Master Hill, Miss Neeson hasn’t recovered yet. Why must you provoke her at this time?”If this had happened b
Sarah’s mind was in a mess too.She did not have the mood to persuade Rodney to stay at all.Just a moment ago, she thought she would get married to Rodney if she could not get Shaun back.After all, he was the successor of Snow Corporation and the nephew of the future president. It was not less honorable than marrying Shaun.However, in just an instant, Rodney was disqualified by the Snow family from inheriting Snow Corporation’s shares. Without the support of the Snow family, Rodney, who only had Osher Corporation, was nothing. She would have a worse marriage than Cindy.Sarah was about to go insane. Why was she so unlucky?… Rodney rushed back home immediately. In the gazebo, Old Master Snow and Jessica were talking about the company’s matters.“Jessica, if only you were a boy. You’re much more capable than Rodney.” Whenever Old Master Snow listened to his granddaughter talk about work, he would get emotional. “Grandpa, you sound as if you’re discriminating against us
Jessica glanced at Rodney helplessly. “Grandpa is serious. You should think this through. Is it worth it for a woman? How far can you go without the Snow family’s support?”“I’ve thought it through. Unlike you, I won’t marry someone that I don’t love,” Rodney said furiously.Jessica’s expression changed, and a trace of sadness flashed across her eyes. Then, she walked out of the gazebo and left too. Rodney stood there for a while before he walked out of the Snow family’s house annoyedly.When he got in the car, he received a call from General Manager Stevens. “President Snow, our company’s acquisition of Country F’s SKITTL Group has failed.”“What happened? Haven’t you took two full years to prepare for SKITTL Group’s acquisition?” Rodney felt an inexplicable anger wash over him again. Initially, he wanted to take the opportunity of acquiring SKITTL Group to let Osher Corporation step into the shampoo industry and even expand it globally. That way, he did not need to pay SE Group
