“Who’s your babe?” Catherine snapped. “Shaun, aren’t you a president? Do you have a lot of spare time to disturb me in my games?”“I’ve earned enough money. The most important thing right now is to pick up girls and get a girlfriend.” Shaun’s reply was confident. “It’s my duty to accompany my girlfriend to play games.”Catherine held her forehead. “How on earth did you find my account?”She remembered that she did not register her WhatsApp number in the game. “I noticed it when you were playing that game on the day we watched a movie,” Shaun said in a low voice. “This is my first time playing games. I used to think playing games is a waste of life, but now I understand that being in a game with the person I love is pretty romantic too.”Although they were on a call, Catherine got goosebumps from his flirting. She did not know how to continue the conversation.“Good girl. What time are you getting off work this evening? I’ll pick you up.” Shaun continued flirting with her in a ge
Unexpectedly, the roof of the sports car was very low.Shaun was directly above her head. So when she raised her head, he was lowering his body, and her juicy lips just so happened to brush his thin lips. The air went still.Shaun’s throat tightened. He felt as if sparks were thrown into a bunch of firewood and ignited a flame. He stared at her. Looking closely, he realized that Catherine had very good skin. She did not have a pore nor a pimple. Yet under his gaze, a pink layer of hue gradually tainted her milky-white skin, making her look even more stunning.“Go away.” Catherine pushed him away.“I’ll go away after another kiss.” Shaun held his body still. Although it was just a light kiss, he could not forget the taste of it. It felt like he was finally liberated after tens of years of being a celibate.“What do you mean by ‘another’? That was just an accidental touch.” Catherine retorted awkwardly.“I don’t think so.” There was a smile in Shaun’s eyes. “I won’t go if we do
“I know. That’s why I’m not too bothered about it. Since my grandpa is insistent on collaborating with the Campos family, then I won’t meddle in their affairs, lest I lose out on both sides.” Catherine shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly. “To be honest, I don’t have any attachments to the Yule family and Yule Corporation.”“Mm, you don’t have to care much about Yule Corporation. Since you’ll be my wife in the future, and the whole of Hill Corporation will be yours.” Shaun suddenly grabbed her hand. “You have Australia’s wealthiest man in your hands.”“Forget it. After all, women have to rely on themselves. Perhaps… you’ll abandon me again.”Catherine withdrew her hand. Her eyes were downcast to conceal the coldness in her eyes.“It’s fine if you don’t believe me. I have plenty of time to prove it to you.” Shaun smiled calmly.Catherine looked at his side profile, puzzled. “Aren’t you worried that the Campos family will become the wealthiest family in Australia after they take over
Shaun was startled.At that moment, it was as if lava was about to erupt in his body.His breaths became heavy as he stared at her fair, petite face with a heated gaze.He suspected that she was intentionally flirting with him.“Alright. It’s not bleeding anymore.” Catherine’s lips left his finger. She was not oblivious to his scalding gaze. However, men had to be flirted with occasionally and given some benefits. If not, how would she leave a deep impression on him?Shaun looked indifferently at his finger that had stopped bleeding. After a moment, he picked up the crab and pricked another of his fingers. Then, he offered his finger to her. “It’s bleeding again.”“...”Did he think she was blind? Did he not want his dignity anymore?“Waiter.” She raised her hand and waved at the waiter. “Please bring me some salt.”Shaun frowned. Why was it different from what he imagined? “Aren’t you going to take a look? More blood is flowing out.”“It’s okay. It’ll be fine once we sprinkl
Everyone’s expression changed. Chester’s deep-set eyes were focused on Cindy, and Shaun’s handsome face had turned dark too. “When did I… leave hickeys on Sarah’s neck?”Shaun could not even touch Sarah at all. How could he leave hickeys?Cindy forced herself to stay calm and said, “Catherine, I really don’t know what you’re talking about.”“Actually, I’m quite thankful to you,” Catherine said. “Back then, I was pregnant and put on house arrest by Shaun until I finally had to go and do a checkup. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have known that the media had spread the news about Freya getting hurt. And I wouldn’t even have known that Thomas had publicly announced that Freya was the one who seduced him. That infuriated me so much that I went back and smashed everything. I even quarreled with Shaun, which resulted in him pushing me to the ground…”That was the time she lost the twins.Shaun’s expression changed drastically.Catherine seemed as if she had gone crazy that day. She e
“If you weren’t useful to me, I would’ve broken up with a pretentious woman like you a long time ago.” Chester warned her sternly, “You better stay put from now on and shut your mouth. If not, don’t even think about being cast in a movie and making a comeback.”With a pale face, Cindy nodded her head obediently.Catherine had utterly ruined her reputation the last time. Besides appearing in some variety shows in the past few months, she had yet received a casting offer for a new movie. As such, she was counting on Chester.“Chester, I have something to say… But I don’t know whether I should say it or not…” She stammered.“If you think you shouldn’t, then shut your mouth,” Chester scolded.“No. I just find it puzzling.” Cindy gritted her teeth. She had to finish her sentence. “Young Master Hill had hurt Catherine so cruelly in the past. He put her on house arrest and caused her to miscarry. He even sent her to the mental hospital. If I were a woman, I wouldn’t forgive him at all. B
“Babe, why is your cooking so delicious?” Shaun lamented again. “I want to eat it for the rest of my life.”“Yeah. You once had the chance to eat it for the rest of your life, but you drove me away.” Catherine got up and collected the plates. “Go back. It’s late.”When she turned around, Shaun came up from behind and tightened his arms around her waist.“I don’t want to go back. I want to stay. I can sleep on the sofa.”“Shaun, I’m not any other woman,” Catherine said solemnly. “When I slept with you before, what I got in return was your disrespect and birth control pills. This time, I want to love myself more. I don’t want to give myself away so easily.”Shaun was speechless. It was his fault for having done so many scummy things.If he knew that this day existed, he would have gone back in time and punched himself a few times.In the past, he had never cherished sleeping with her. Yet now, he could not even sleep with her even if he wanted to. “Okay, I’ll go. But I want a ki
“That woman went back?” Shaun sat beside Chester. “Chester, are you going to keep tolerating that woman? I’ve never had much of an impression of Cindy, but after tonight, I found that she really isn't great. She’s not worthy of you.”“There are some things that can’t be helped.” Chester took a sip of wine. His eyes were deep. “What about you? Are you really getting back with Catherine?”“Yeah.” Shaun was in a good mood tonight. Of course, it might be better if he did not meet Cindy halfway.Chester looked at him worriedly. “Have you ever thought about whether Catherine sincerely wants to be with you or… to get revenge on you?”The happy and handsome face immediately froze. Shaun put down his wine glass, and a frosty sharpness flashed in his eyes.If it were anyone else, they might have been afraid. However, Chester had known him since they were children, so he understood him. He continued with a straight face, “Think about what you did to her in the past because of Sarah. You put
