“Get up.” Shaun clenched his fists.“No.” Rodney gnashed his teeth with an imploring gaze. “Shaun, the doctor has managed to rescue her, but what if she has nothing else to look forward to after this? What about tomorrow and the day after tomorrow? If she hadn’t encouraged you back in the mental hospital, you probably would’ve given up. Later, she took up psychology because of you. If it weren’t for her three years ago, you would’ve gone insane. Why can’t you sympathize with her a little? You just have to be so cruel, huh?”Shaun’s temples twitched. He turned around to walk out of the ward straight away.Rodney gripped his leg. “Shaun, I beg you. If you don’t agree, I’ll continue to kneel here.”“Rodney, as my buddy, you’re not supposed to threaten me like this.”Shaun broke free from his grip and strode out.“Rodney, get up.” Chester let out a sigh. “I understand that you want Sarah to be happy, but you can’t build her happiness on someone’s pain. Shaun has been feeling guilty o
Shaun continued to look at the photo. His tall and straight figure seemed to be surrounded by frostiness.He was completely dazed.He simply could not believe that Catherine was the one who got this man to kidnap Sarah.“You still trust her, huh?”Rodney snatched the photo and swung it in front of him. “Look, they’re the same. Don’t you get it yet? This is Catherine’s trap. You’ve been trapped!“She has long since arranged for someone to kidnap Sarah. After that, she lured you to Hobart so that she could get the man to kidnap Sarah. If I hadn’t learned about it and got there soon enough, Sarah might have been killed. This woman is too cruel!”Shaun remained motionless. He only gazed at Chester. “What do you think?”Chester’s eyes carried a complicated look. “I think… what Rodney said makes sense. Catherine has a motive, and what’s more, she knows the kidnapper. I previously reminded you that she might have a hidden agenda when she decided to be with you again.” “If you still r
“Just admit it.” Rodney scoffed. “Catherine Jones, I’m giving you two options now. You can either go to jail or let my subordinates have their fun with you. Only then will I let you off the hook.”Catherine chuckled. “For someone like you who isn’t even eligible to inherit the Snow family’s properties, you’re nothing. I’m sure this bunch of people are not the masters from Snow Corporation. If you guys have the guts, you can band together and attack me. Let me see how great you are.”Rodney was so exasperated that his expression changed drastically. At this moment, Shaun had rushed over.He slammed the brakes to stop in front of their cars. He immediately got out.He was still wearing the same shirt as when he had hurriedly left in the wee hours of the morning. Nevertheless, his exquisitely handsome face looked extremely fierce, which was completely different from his gentle appearance yesterday. At the sight of Shaun, Rodney snorted. “Shaun, you came at the right time. She’s admi
Shaun remained silent, but he clearly agreed with Rodney.As Catherine watched the glow in Shaun’s eyes dim little by little, her heart was overwhelmed with sarcasm. She mocked herself for being touched by his words 24 hours ago.After going through so many hardships, had it still not hit her that this man was a liar?When he wanted her, he could say everything.“Shaun, I just want to ask you one thing. What can I do so that you’ll let Logan go?” Catherine asked in a low voice.“Let him go?” Rodney reacted as if he had heard a joke. “Are you dreaming? He hurt Sarah. People like him should be tortured to death. By the way, why are you so worried about someone who works for you? Could it be that you’re having an affair with him?”“Watch your mouth.”As soon as Catherine warned Rodney severely, she could clearly sense the sudden fury in Shaun’s frosty eyes.Deep down, she was cursing Rodney. She even hoped that he would not have any descendants nor get together with the woman he l
Rodney had once destroyed the Snow family’s reputation previously, but that had to do with his private life. If he made a move against Catherine this time, it would most probably cause everyone to boycott the Snow family for the election next year.“If you plan to arrest me, you’d better have evidence first,” Catherine said nonchalantly. With that, she turned around to leave.“Hold on. You’re leaving, but have you asked me?” Shaun approached her with a stony expression. “Did I say you can leave?”Rodney’s eyes lit up. “Shaun, seize her and send her to Liona to torture her.”“You’re planning to seize me, huh?”Catherine looked into Shaun’s eyes, her gaze revealing a rare look of grimness.His heart tightened in an instant. Suddenly, he had no idea what to say.He knew if he did it, the conflict between them would intensify. However, now that she had done such a wicked thing, could he actually pretend that nothing had happened? “Shaun, why are you hesitating?” Rodney thundered,
At the car park.After the elevator went up, Shaun violently punched the glass window of his car. Blood flowed from his fist to the ground, yet he did not feel the slightest pain. His eyes reddened, and he was overwhelmed with grief.Catherine actually… pointed a gun at him.What could be more painful than knowing that his beloved woman had the thought of shooting him?Ha!Was she even in love with him? How could she be so brutal?“Shaun, aren’t you already clear about Catherine’s character by now? She has long since changed. She has changed so much that we can’t see through her now. Who would carry a gun with them?”Rodney said in exasperation, “She’s been hiding a lot of things from you. She’s probably not sincere being in this relationship with you. She doesn’t even love you. She got back together with you simply because she wanted to take revenge on Sarah. Don’t you see it?”“Shut up!” Shaun glowered at him frostily.“I’m just telling the truth. Wake up and look at what’
Even Nathan Snow, who was going to run for prime minister next year, was present.“Joel, what brings you here at this hour?” Old Master Snow asked with a grin.“Old Master Snow, I have an urgent matter to talk to you about.” A look of exasperation washed over Joel’s face. “If I had another choice, I wouldn’t have brought my daughter here. Jason, considering we’re acquaintances, I hope you’ll keep an eye on your son.”Jason was stunned. He had two sons. “You’re referring to…”“This afternoon, Rodney came to Hackett Institute and caused trouble for me.” Catherine turned on her phone and showed him a video. “This is the footage I got from the surveillance camera. Take a look at it. He crashed into me and destroyed my car.” The other members of the Snow family came over to watch the video on the phone. All of them saw Rodney pulling Catherine’s hair while dragging her out of the car. He even strangled her after he hit her car. From the footage, they could see that he brought a lot of
“Yes. When Sarah was in a relationship with Shaun, she was having an affair with a drug addict who was also a foreigner. If I’m not mistaken, they knew each other from her time overseas. Every week, Sarah would go to his apartment and sleep with him. The person who murdered the man hasn’t been found. Previously, the police suspected Sarah, but they didn’t find any evidence incriminating her.”This statement astounded everyone in the Snow family.After all, they were under no illusions that Rodney had been protecting Sarah in secret.Although Sarah’s tarnished reputation had caused an uproar lately, it was just a rumor, after all. The specific details of the incident were unknown.“Are you sure that you’re telling the truth?” A somber look washed over Jessica’s face. “Actually, Young Master Snow is aware of this matter as well, but he treats Sarah as a goddess. Sarah probably fooled these men by claiming that she had been forced to do those things.”Catherine spoke in a weak tone
