“Ms. Neeson, President Hill is in a meeting.” Hadley interrupted her.“Assistant Young…” Sarah was stunned. “Then, once the meeting has ended, can you…”“Ms. Neeson, if the caretaker has left, I will arrange for another one to go there. But I hope you won’t lose your temper at the other caretakers. They’re also human beings, and they’re all working hard for money. No one is superior to another person.”Sarah’s eyes reddened with every word Hadley said. “Assistant Young, what do you mean by that? You are looking down at me too. I’m telling you, my position in Shaun’s heart is irreplaceable.”“Ms. Neeson, that’s all I have to say.” Hadley hung up after he finished speaking.Sarah was so angry she almost smashed her phone.Fortunately, it did not take long for Yael to come over. However, Yael burst out crying as soon as she saw her. “Ms. Neeson, Catherine Jones is too vicious…”She then told Sarah what happened in Liona that afternoon.Sarah’s whole body trembled. It was not that
Sarah’s blood boiled upon hearing him.Shaun’s heart had been hooked by Catherine. Then now, even her backup plan, Rodney was surrounding Freya all day.She really lived up to the title of Catherine’s best friend. She was just as annoying and cheap.“Rodney, I’m so annoyed.” Sarah sounded sad. “I used to have Yael with me, but now, she has also been transferred away.”“Hasn’t she been protecting you all these while?” Rodney’s voice suddenly exploded.“She’s just following Liona’s orders.” Sarah sighed bitterly. “The caretaker left too, saying that I have a temper. I really didn’t expect that I would end up in this situation.”“F*ck. Shaun is ridiculous.” Rodney did not expect Shaun to be so heartless. Even if he wanted to break up, did he have to be so impatient and transfer her personnel away? “Don’t think about it. I’ll come right away.”However, when he hung up the phone and turned around to leave, he saw Freya standing behind him. He did not know how long she had been there.
Freya shook her head. “I don’t want to go out. I’ve been eating out every day recently, and my stomach isn’t feeling well, so I want to eat in. You can cook for me.”“What?” Rodney thought he was deaf.“You don’t want to? If you don’t want to, then forget it. I thought we could take this meal to talk about it…”“I… I’ll do it. I’ll do it.”Rodney bit the bullet and chased after her.He never thought there would come a day where he had to listen to Freya’s whims.After going upstairs, Freya threw herself on the sofa. Then, she tore open the snacks on the table and started to eat. “Hurry up and cook. If it’s bad, then there’s no chance to talk. Also, don’t even think of asking someone for help. I’m the kind of person who likes sincerity.”Rodney opened the refrigerator with a grim face. There were many things inside, but they were only yogurt, milk, fruit, and cheese. There were no cooking ingredients. After searching for a long time, he found three steaks, sashimi, and some froze
Rodney gritted his teeth. “Do you have to be so surprised? Is it strange that I can cook?”“Yeah. In my eyes, you’re just a useless, pampered young master who doesn’t know how to do anything other than follow Sarah’s orders and do her bidding every day.” Freya nodded without hesitation.“...”He should have put some poison in the dish earlier to end it all.Freya cut a tiny piece of steak and tasted it. The taste was surprisingly… damn good. It was as authentic as the steak she had in Country F.The tempura tasted like it was from Japan, and even the sashimi was especially tender and fresh. Ahem, of course, this had to do with her good ingredients.“Did you really make this yourself?”She was curious. “You didn’t have your subordinates send it in from the kitchen window with a drone, right?”“No, I made it myself. I’ve liked to cook since I was young, okay?” Rodney really could not stand it.“This is really unexpected. Shaun’s cooking is a disaster, so I never thought he’d hav
“To you, I’m just an ordinary cosmetic chemist. But have you ever thought about how hard we work to climb up to where we are?“When all you young masters were out drinking and playing, we were still burning the midnight oil in the laboratory. When you went out to play ball and go fishing, we stayed at home hitting the books.”Freya’s eyes could not help but redden as she spoke.“Do you understand how desperate you made me when you shut me off back then? The incident with Thomas Neeson coincidentally happened at the same time as well, and I was egged on at the supermarket. I couldn’t find a job and couldn’t stay in the country, so I had to go overseas.“As a newcomer, I was looked down upon overseas. I didn’t even go back to my apartment every day. Out of 365 days a year, I spent 350 days in the lab and fainted several times.“There were two times I lay on the cold ground all night and woke up by myself to go to the hospital. I have thought of giving up, but I wanted to fight back
Sarah was furious.She never thought that Rodney, her backup plan, would one day have a meeting and forget her. In the past, she was always on his mind, and as long as she said the word, he would come as soon as possible no matter how busy or far away he was.Let alone stand her up in the evening because of Freya Lynch.However, she could not say that, so all she could do was pretend to be polite and generous. “It’s okay. How did the talk go with Freya?”“The talk was settled, but she asked for 10 percent of Osher Corporation’s shares,” Rodney said helplessly. “So I went back to the company to discuss it with the executives. Everyone thinks this plan is feasible. If we can tie Freya Lynch to Osher, it’s worth it.”“10 percent?” Sarah’s voice could not help but raise. “That’s daylight robbery, yet you guys are agreeing to it?”“There’s no choice. However, after our company packages the new products, I believe Osher’s market value will increase.”Sarah really wanted to call Rodney
“Bah, no way. I’m just lamenting. Sarah actually has a good life sometimes, but she doesn’t know how to cherish it. I’ll be frank. Rodney’s cooking is really good. His steak and tempura are absolutely delicious.” Freya’s mouth watered a little as she thought about it.“So, he’s not completely useless. There are very few men who can cook nowadays. Unlike Shaun…” Catherine’s expression was grim. “He only wants to eat my cooking all day long. I don’t want to win over a man with my cooking skills. I, too, want a man to cook for me one day.”“Wesley can.” Freya winked.Catherine fell silent all of a sudden. These days, Wesley had not been in contact with her at all because of her plan. She owed Wesley too much.Halfway through the meal, Shaun called. “I’m done with dinner. Where are you?”Catherine looked at the time. It was only 7:00 p.m. “So early?”“Yeah. I just had dinner with those bosses and left. I told Hadley to take them out for some fun.”“I’m out eating with Freya. You can
In no time, they were pinned down on the beds by the four men.“Boss, this one is Freya Lynch.” One of the men pulled out a photo and pointed at Freya.“Yep, take her away.” The man with the thick gold chains waved his hands before he stared at Catherine. “You guys go. I’ll stay here and have some fun.”“Bro, I want to have fun too.” The younger man on the side licked his lips as he stared at Freya. “He didn’t say we couldn’t touch her.”“Fine.”“B*stards.” Catherine and Freya went mad seeing the men pouncing on them and pulling their clothes.At that moment, the door was kicked in.Shaun barged in. When he saw Catherine’s half-ripped clothes, his eyes instantly turned cold and red. “How dare you touch her.”“Who… Who are you?” The four hoodlums were shocked by his intimidating aura.“I’m the person who’s going to kill you tonight.” Shaun immediately beat them down and even broke their legs.After the beating, he quickly took off his clothes to wrap them around Catherine. Whe
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
