“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
9:30 p.m.Shaun leaned on the door of Catherine’s house and looked at his phone from time to time.Why was that woman not back yet when it was already so late? Could she be on a date with some guy again? If Shaun had not tracked Isaac’s whereabouts beforehand and found out that he was working extra hours at his company tonight, he would not have waited here foolishly for seven hours.He had never waited for a woman like that before.Ding. A sound came from the elevator. A few policemen walked toward him with a frown. “It must be you.”Shaun was dumbfounded.“Let’s go. Either you leave this neighborhood, or follow us back to the police station.” The police said coldly, “The owner of this house has already made a police report. She said you’re her ex-husband who has been pestering her so much even after the divorce that she doesn’t dare come home.”“She called the police?Shaun’s handsome face twitched, and he exuded a terrifying aura. Unbeknownst to him, it made the police mor
After breakfast, Catherine walked out from the main entrance of the Yule family’s villa.Shaun immediately opened the car door and walked toward her. Having not been home for two consecutive nights, the shirt he wore was crumpled, and there was stubble on his face. However, that did not affect his good looks at all. In fact, it strengthened his presence further. Even his gloomy mood was filled with a compelling taste of a bad boy that women loved. “You called the police last night?” Shaun stared at Catherine with bloodshot eyes.“That’s right. You kept standing at my door, not wanting to leave. It was a huge inconvenience to me,” Catherine said coldly without any hint of guilt.“You…”Shaun’s chest heaved. As a highly regarded man, he had never been humiliated by a woman like that before.“What about me? I’m not a person who’s at your beck and call. Mr. Hill, you can’t choose a useful woman when you need her but abandon her for another attractive yet useless woman when you don’t
A hand covered Shaun’s lips before he could kiss Catherine.“When did I owe you a kiss?” Catherine was puzzled. She was about to be defeated by his shamelessness.“The night the day before yesterday.” Shaun took his phone out and showed her the kiss emoji that she had sent him.Catherine’s pretty face flushed when she saw the kiss emoji on the phone. She had done it at the spur of the moment purely with the intention to make this man yearn for her. However, she did not expect him to remember it so well. “Oh, I remember. But… did you go look for Sarah immediately after receiving my emoji?” she asked with a fake smile.“No.”Shaun’s expression stiffened, and he said unnaturally, “I went to take a cold bath after I received it.”“...”Since they were adults, Catherine found herself understanding his words right away.Her eyes widened in disbelief before her cheeks heated up. She was speechless.Seriously? Was it not just an emoji that everyone was using? Why was he so horny?“
“I’m not driving that anymore. Cathy doesn’t like it, so there’s no need to keep it.”Hadley felt embarrassed. “But will an Aston Martin be too cheap? It doesn’t really match your status.”“Never mind. Cathy drives an Aston Martin too. Since she drives a white one, you can get a black one for me. Just nice, we’ll have matching cars.”Shaun hung up after he said that. It was as if changing a sports car to him was as easy as shopping for vegetables. Catherine concentrated on her driving and let him do whatever.As she drove, Shaun said, “This isn’t the way to Hudson Corporation.”“Mm, I’m going to Yule Corporation. The toxin in my dad’s body hasn’t cleared yet, so I’m going to his company to have a look.”It was mainly because Joel told her last night that Old Master Yule had agreed to let Melanie return to the company. As such, she had to go and take a look personally. Otherwise, Yule Corporation would become a total mess because of Melanie and her father again. “If you’re goi
Having not managed the company’s affairs for many years, Old Master Yule was dragged into today’s meeting coincidentally by Melanie. However, Charlie’s speech had moved him. He was most upset about the fact that Yule Corporation would never be one of the top three wealthiest families in Australia. “Old Master Yule, say something. We believe in your views.” President Parker flattered him. “Now that Director Yule has been poisoned and is not as healthy as he used to be, Yule Corporation can only rely on you.”“That’s right, Old Master Yule. Come back to the company.” A few shareholders advised him. “Campos Corporation has been developing rapidly over the years, and they’ve advanced to the second largest corporation in Australia. I think we shouldn’t miss out on this chance.”“Yes. Regardless of personal grudges, if it weren’t for the e-commerce that we’ve previously established with Campos Corporation, Yule Corporation wouldn’t have developed so fast for the past few years.”“Old
