“Officer Chandler, this is my other darling daughter, Catherine. She’s not only courageous but also kind and upright. Not long ago, she even cooperated with the police and went undercover to take down a group that makes illegal videos. Sigh, my eldest is getting married soon but my youngest is still single. I hope she gets married soon as well. Don’t you have a younger son available too…”

A flurry of emotions chased across Officer Chandler’s face in quick succession. Everyone in Melbourne knew Catherine had almost gotten raped on the live stream. No family would dare to take her in anymore.

“Oh, right, she sounds like a nice girl. It’s a shame my younger son is already in a relationship. Hey, isn’t that Chairman Wright? It’s been a long time.”

Officer Chandler made an excuse and walked away quickly.

Jeffery said in disappointment, “Don’t worry, Cathy. I’ll find you a good husband today.”

Nonchalance was written all over Catherine’s face. She had already given up hope on this coup

    Catherine turned to look at Rebecca before chuckling again.“You’re secretly jealous that I’m prettier than you, right? Say it outright instead of trying to throw subtle hints left and right all the time. After all, you only have to say it and someone else will do the dirty work for you, isn’t it? Then you can go off pretending to be weak and innocent again.”“Catherine, that’s not what I mean. I’m genuinely complimenting you.” Tears of grievance were slowly welling up in Rebecca’s eyes.Ethan could not watch this any longer. “Catherine, haven’t you had enough? You’re the only one being harsh to Rebecca since the beginning.”“There, someone is stepping up to protect you now.” The corners of Catherine’s lips twitched into a meaningful smile.Ethan widened his eyes in rage. Jeffery finally spoke up, “Alright, we still have guests around. Catherine, go to the private room to keep your Grandma company. Come out again when the ceremony starts.”“I’ll leave after seeing Grandma…”“You

    “Fine, I’ll go.”Silently, Catherine pushed Granny Jones, who was in a wheelchair, out of the room and toward the banquet hall. They would be sitting at the same table as the Jones couple and Ethan.However, after taking her seat, she noticed Wesley sitting at the other main table reserved for immediate relatives.A look of confusion spread across her face. He claimed to be distant relatives to both these families but why was he sitting together with Elder Lyons and Granny Lyons?Not to mention Shaun. He actually did not attend the ceremony although he was Ethan’s uncle.Quite the contrary, Janet and Cindy, who were not even that familiar with Rebecca, showed up.Catherine laughed internally. Rebecca had surely gone all out to build friendly relationships with people she did not like.The engagement ceremony commenced at 12.12 p.m. The emcee went up the stage to thank everyone for their presence. Finally, both Ethan and Rebecca were invited up the stage.Rebecca, who was dres

    Catherine had nothing to do with this but evidently, someone was trying to frame her.The only person who could do all this was probably Rebecca!This woman actually sacrificed her own engagement party for this reason. How cruel!“Who the hell did this?!” Sally screamed angrily. “Where are the photos previously saved in the memory card?”The floor manager hurried forward. “Madam Jones, I’m truly sorry. We just realized the memory card has been replaced.”“Who would do something terrible like this?!” Sonya shouted.Cindy replied almost right away, “Aunty Sonya, it’s obvious that someone is trying to ruin the ceremony.”“That’s right. We must find out who is behind this!”“I’m not sure if I should say this.” Right at that moment, Aunty Helen, who was looking after Granny Jones, stood up cowardly and stuttered, “I saw Second Young Lady Jones sneakily entering the media room earlier.”Startled, Catherine suddenly understood something.She remained silent, but Jeffery was already

    “What? Today is Granny Jones’ 80th birthday?”“That’s unacceptable. The old woman is probably heading toward the end of her journey. You mustn’t miss the 80th birthday celebration.”Jeffery’s face was written over with rage and embarrassment. “I’m looking into the matter of you ruining the engagement ceremony, so stop trying to divert the attention. I’ll naturally mention your grandma’s birthday after this.”“Sure, let’s return to the engagement ceremony then. Based on the words of a newly-hired carer, you’re strongly accusing your own daughter without hesitation! Have you checked the security footage? I’ve stayed in the private room with Grandma since I stepped foot into this place and didn’t leave until the reception started. I believe a luxurious seven-star hotel like this will have many security cameras installed.”Catherine declared in confidence, “If the security footage shows that I’ve been inside the media room, not to mention apologizing, but I’ll even kneel down on the gr

    “You…” Cindy was visibly shaking by now.“Stop it, you. We were best friends for almost eight years and we’ve taken countless pictures together. Don’t force me to prove it.”Catherine calmly swept her gaze past the guests before finally landing her attention on the Jones couple.“There’s no need to check the security footage because the Jones family wouldn’t allow it to happen anyway. I don’t want to stay at this ceremony for a minute longer. Honestly, I’m disgusted by all of you hypocrites.”Then, she threw the microphone aside, jumped off the table, and started walking out of the banquet hall under everyone’s gaze.The Jones and Lowe families looked extremely embarrassed.Ethan was the most ashamed out of all. Finally, his father stepped forward and announced to the guests, “Let’s start the feast while the young couple gets changed and gets some rest upstairs. I bet they’re getting tired too.”He threw a warning glare at Ethan after saying that. The latter gritted his teeth as

    Besides, Ethan could not bring himself to imagine Catherine being with another man.“Uncle, I think you’ve gone mad. Some people are not as innocent as they appear on the surface—”“I’ve had more professional experience than you and I’m also a few years older than you, so you can stop telling me what to do,” Wesley interrupted the man softly.“Moreover, what kind of a man are you to slander your ex-girlfriend who basically grew up with you?”Ethan’s face was red with embarrassment. “I’m saying it for your own good. Grandpa and Grandma will never accept her into the family.”“Is it for my own good or for yours? I’m sure you know the answer better than anyone else.”Ding. At this moment, the elevator arrived.Wesley led Catherine into the elevator, shutting out Ethan’s angry face on the other side of the elevator doors.While in the enclosed space, she was overwhelmed by the emotions that crashed through her.He glanced at her. Thinking that she must be frightened, he patted her

    This took Freya by surprise. “Have I upset you?”“You didn’t upset me but you’ve pushed me into a grave!” Catherine, who had lost control, started screaming. “Shaun is not Ethan’s uncle at all! You got the wrong person!”“No way…” Freya did not know what else to say.“I met Ethan’s uncle today and he turns out to be Wesley Lyons. I was given the project to design his villa in Green Mountain not long ago.” Catherine felt like crying at the moment. “What went wrong that led you to make this mistake? My goodness.”“...”Freya resorted to silence as a shudder passed through her. She could not fathom why as she had heard it from her own brother....Half an hour later, Catherine showed up in front of Freya as fast as a bolt of lightning.The latter had already borrowed a helmet beforehand. “Here’s the rule. You can hit me but not on my face.”The corners of Catherine’s lips twitched into a helpless smile. “Can I jump into the river together with you then?”Freya winced pitifully.

    Jennings Solicitors.Chase, who had just returned from his lunch break, walked into the office leisurely.As he walked past Shaun’s office, he noticed the secretary about to enter with a cup of coffee.“Did Attorney Hill take his lunch break?” he asked the latter.“No, he’s been looking through the new cases,” the secretary whispered. “Attorney Hill is diligently taking on cases lately. Is he facing any financial problems? He used to take on two cases each month at most, but now he’s working on four cases simultaneously. He’s so busy that he works overtime through every lunch break.”Chase scoffed. Would Shaun ever be faced with financial problems?The president could run out of money but Shaun? Never in a million years.The wealth he possessed could last for ten lifetimes. He simply did not want to go back to an empty house yet was too stubborn to admit it.“Alright, I’ll take care of this.” He took the coffee and stepped into the office.“Leave it there,” Shaun said without

    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
