Hadley looked up in surprise. It seemed like Ms. Jones was settling her old scores. If it were him, he would be unhappy as well. “I can’t say either. That time, I saw Yael take off Ms. Jones’s coat, revealing the straps inside. She lifted her clothes, and many areas were… exposed. I only stopped her when she was about to take off Ms. Jones’s pants. But Yael thought I was doubting her for doing a bad job at searching, so she wanted me to do it instead. That was when you came in.”Shaun clenched his fists and stared at Irving and Roy. “Tell the truth.”Irving was so scared that he blurted out, “It is as Assistant Young says.”“So… Yael was trying to take off Catherine’s pants\?” Shaun narrowed his eyes.Roy nervously choked on his saliva. “Yael said that she was afraid Catherine Jones was hiding it inside her pants…”Before he could finish, Shaun threw him a fierce punch.Irving and Roy were beaten black and blue, but no one dared to fight back or make a peep.“So you saw everythi
“You really investigated it?” Catherine scoffed. “It seems like you really didn’t believe me.”Shaun could not find the words to reply to her.He was exasperated. He completely understood what it meant to shoot himself in the foot.“As expected. The internet said that if a dominant president falls in love with me, I can say anything, and he’ll choose to believe me unconditionally. But it turns out to be false.” Catherine sighed quietly. “It’s understandable. You used to believe whatever Sarah told you, but you never believed anything I said. If it were Sarah, everything would be different.”“I’m sorry…” Shaun’s heart moved.Yes. Every time she fought with Sarah, he would always choose to believe Sarah unconditionally. However, after this time, he realized there were perhaps times that he had misunderstood her in the past.Maybe Sarah lied as well. After all, he did not expect Yael to do something like this as he was right outside the door that day.“I’m coming down. I’ll take my
“It’s fine. I know you were just listening to orders.” Catherine glanced at Shaun. “Why did you beat him up like that? Weren’t they just heeding your orders?”“...”Shaun’s heart hurt from all the holding in, but he did not dare to say a word because she was right.Irving looked at Shaun’s defeated expression, and his jaw almost fell to the ground in astonishment. This was his first time seeing Eldest Young Master Hill so obedient to a woman. Not even Sarah had received this kind of treatment before. It seemed like he had to respect Ms. Jones in the future.“Eldest Young Master, Yael is in the punishment room.” Roy also ran over, trembling. His bum was beaten until it bled, and it was still hurting. “Okay.”Shaun took Catherine and walked in.… In the punishment room.Yael was brought here as soon as she was called back. Her phone was taken away immediately, and the uneasy feeling in her heart grew more and more.“Get out of the way. I need to go to the hospital,” Yael said
“Well… I’m Shaun’s girlfriend. Isn’t your tone now disrespectful to me? Or is it because I’m not Sarah, so you hate me and treat me with hostility. You even looked down on Elle for protecting me. Maybe you’ve protected Sarah for so long that you now see her as your true master?” Catherine raised her eyebrows. She had hit the nail on the head.“No.” Yael’s face went pale.In Liona, the most taboo act was disloyalty to the Hill family, and the consequences to that were very serious. “Ms. Jones, why are you slandering me like this? I have no grudge against you. I’m just a lowly bodyguard.”“You’re a member of Liona, so you’re not as simple as a bodyguard. You think too little of yourself.” Catherine smiled and asked Shaun, “May I be so bold as to ask you a question? How long has Yael protected Sarah?”Shaun frowned. “Including the time before Sarah disappeared, around seven or eight years.”“Seems like she has been protecting Sarah since she was very young.” Catherine pointed out.Y
Catherine froze, and surprise flashed in her eyes.However, Yael thought that she was provoked, so she said viciously, “If it were possible with Ms. Neeson, he wouldn’t even look for you. If you don’t believe me, you can secretly check it yourself. Once he gets better, you’ll be of no value to him. You better save some face for me, or I won’t let you off.”“Is that so?” Catherine took a deep breath and nodded incredulously. “I’ll go ask Shaun later.”“Don’t you dare.”Yael was frightened. She had only wanted to provoke Catherine. If Shaun found out that she told Catherine such a thing, he would definitely kill her. After all, men cared about their pride a lot.Catherine chuckled. Yael was afraid, which meant that what she said might be true.She never expected that nothing happened between Shaun and Sarah despite them being together for so long.Tsk. This was quite interesting.His brain was hypnotized, but his body instinctively resisted?Somehow, her hatred for this man sudd
“This is…” Catherine could not help but turn around to look at the man.Before she could get a good look, she was pulled back by a powerful force.Shaun looked at her dominantly. “You’re not allowed to look at other men curiously.”Catherine was speechless. “I don’t have a hobby of liking middle-aged men. I just thought he had a strong presence.”“He’s Liona’s master and one of Liona’s bosses. He only follows my orders.”Shaun explained to her, “To become a master in Liona, one’s skills have to be the top in the country. The people who join Liona also have to undergo tons of obstacles, so it’s only natural that Master Ziegler’s presence is very strong.”“Oh.” Catherine nodded. “By the way, I cut up all of Yael’s clothes inside. I guess she’ll hate me a lot.”“She won’t dare.” A chilling coldness was seething in Shaun’s eyes. “You’re my woman. Hating you is equivalent to hating me. Those who dare to turn their backs on me will die with nothing left of them.Catherine secretly lo
“That’s true. Yael is just a woman.”“...”In the room.Master Ziegler had just walked in.Yael shut the door behind them and ripped off his jacket before she hugged him around the waist from behind. “Chance, I want to die! I can’t continue living in this life anymore.”Master Ziegler turned around. When he saw Yael’s unclothed appearance, a hint of grimness flashed in his dark eyes.“Don’t be ridiculous.” Chance Ziegler said coldly, “I’ve warned you long ago that Sarah Neeson is just someone you protect. Why did you interfere in the personal fuel between her and Catherine Jones? All you have to do is perform the task that Eldest Young Master arranged for you.”“But I was really falsely accused.” Yael sobbed. “I was just following the Eldest Young Master’s orders to search her body, but Catherine secretly harbored a grudge against me. Why did she have to take it out on me because she has a grudge against Ms. Neeson? Eldest Young Master too. When he was on good terms with Ms. Nee
Shaun’s voice was slightly cold. “Master Ziegler, don’t think I don’t know about your relationship with Yael.”Chance was shocked. He always thought that Shaun did not know. “Eldest Young Master, I…”“I understand. Yael is young and beautiful, but at your age, what kind of woman have you not seen?” Shaun lowered his voice. “Yael is no longer completely loyal to me. I don’t trust her to remain in Liona.”Chance smiled bitterly. Yael was different as he had watched her grew up. When she grew from that little girl into a graceful woman that loved him, something in him that had settled for many years suddenly seemed to come alive. “Master Ziegler, are you sad?” Shaun suddenly asked.“No, Eldest Young Master. She’s just a woman. However, I’m afraid that expelling her from Liona like that will cause criticism from others. Let’s transfer her out of the country,” Chance said cautiously. As a master of Liona, he was not allowed to be emotional.“Okay, then I’ll go with your arrangement.
