“Catherine isn’t an illegitimate child.”“Since you didn’t marry her mom, it means she’s an illegitimate child. This kind of person isn’t qualified to be a part of the Yule family’s house. If you insist on acknowledging her, you’re no longer my son.” Old Madam Yule threatened Joel. “Dad is still in the emergency room, so I don’t want to argue with you.” Joel panted as he turned around. He was so pissed that his frail body was trembling.“Take a seat first, Dad.” Catherine promptly held him to the seat. “I'm going downstairs to buy you a bottle of water.”Melanie teased in a strange tone, “Even Granny isn’t seated yet despite her old age. You’re quite good at currying favors. No wonder you’ve got Uncle Joel wrapped around your hands.” Then, she turned around and brought Old Madam Yule to a seat.“You’re so understanding, unlike someone.” Old Madam Yule shook her head. She was extremely upset with Catherine.Joel was so infuriated that his face reddened. If it had not been for t
Catherine fixed her stony gaze on Shaun’s cautious look.She found it ludicrous. The corners of her mouth curled her lips into a mocking smile. “Do you think I’m here to visit you?” Catherine shrank from his grip. “We have nothing to do with each other anymore.”She then turned around to leave, but Shaun was quick enough to stand in front of her. Although he was sick, his tone was arrogant as usual. “When did I break up with you? Catherine, you’re still my girlfriend.”“Mr. Hill, you have such a poor memory. Let me remind you that you were holding onto Sarah’s arms intimately when you showed up at the court yesterday.”Catherine was really amazed by his shameless behavior. “Someone who’s ashamed won’t bring himself to say such things.”“You can treat me as shameless, then.”Shaun was reluctant to let go of her hand. He knew that he had wronged her a lot, so perhaps he should not disturb her as Hadley said. However, he could not stop thinking about her since last night.He ha
“Thirdly, I’ll ignore the fact that you forced me to get a divorce because you wanted to marry Sarah, but why did you have to ask Yael to strip off my clothes? Yes, you’ve helped me to take revenge on her, but do you understand the agony and humiliation of being pressed on the floor and stripped little by little? You basically trampled on my dignity.“The fourth matter has to be Logan’s case. After learning that Sarah was kidnapped, you left me on Mount Wellington in the middle of the night. I begged you not to go, but you still left heartlessly.“Logan is my family, yet how did you treat him? You chopped off his finger to please Sarah. Shaun, don’t you find yourself terrifying?”Terrifying?He was terrifying?Shaun’s hands were trembling.If she had not listed those things one by one, he would have forgotten all these evil deeds he had done to her.He was not inherently cruel. However, he could easily transform into a devil when it came to her affairs.“I’m sorry, Cathy. I won
Catherine herself said that she no longer had feelings for Shaun.The corners of Shaun’s eyes reddened with pain.It turned out that she did give him chances, and she did give in to him.However, he had missed the chance the night he left her alone on Mount Wellington without a second thought.Shaun, oh, Shaun. For Sarah, how much have you hurt this woman who used to love you?“Shaun, I know you’ll never let go of Sarah. In this case, we’ll be rivals in the future.”Catherine shrank back from his touch and left without looking back.“Don’t leave me, Cathy…” As much as Shaun wanted to go after him, his post-surgery wound had opened, and blood stained his gown. With every step he took, his wound felt as if it was sliced open. The pain was so intense that his face became as white as a sheet. He wanted to let her know that he did not want to be her rival. Instead, he wanted her to be his girlfriend and wife. He would not be bothered about Sarah’s affairs anymore.Despite that, hi
Catherine smiled faintly. “Anyway, we no longer have anything to do with Yule Corporation. It’s up to you to do whatever you want, Young Master Campos. But having said that, let me remind you that Damien and his daughter might not be able to beat Kawada.”With that, Catherine left without bothering to see Charlie’s expression.Soon, Melanie came out of the ward and looked at him anxiously. “Charlie, what do we do now? It seems that Joel is set on selling the shares, and no one can stop him.”Charlie’s heart did a flip before he sighed. “We can’t let Kawada be the chairman, much less have the chance to get involved in the internal affairs of Yule Corporation. Otherwise, he’ll make the Yule family a figurehead sooner or later.”Melanie’s face instantly paled. In fact, she had expected this.“Kawada is a cunning person, so you’re definitely no match for him. We have to depend on your dad. If your dad can’t beat him, then you and your dad…”Charlie shook his head as he spoke, “You gu
“Eldest Young Master, please focus on getting well first.” Hadley reminded, “We’re close to succeeding with our microchip. By then, not only Australia but the whole world will place their orders with us. It will be a big step-up for Hill Corporation this time.”Shaun remained silent.Indeed, Hill Corporation would go further, and he would have more money to burn.However, what was the point of making so much money? The woman whom he would like to spend money on had hated him to the core.Shaun’s phone vibrated all of a sudden.It was a call from Sarah. Before this, Sarah had sent him messages regarding her explanation on the news.He was not in the mood for checking it out at all. In fact, he just found it irritating.At night, Irving from Liona gave him a call. “Eldest Young Master, Miss Neeson has slit her wrist in the villa bathtub.”Shaun sat up right away and asked with a nervous voice, “How is she now?”“Luckily, we found out about it soon enough to send her to the hospi
Thomas put down his phone and said indignantly, “Young Master Hill is heartless. You almost died, yet he’s so unconcerned. Sigh, Sarah, do you think they are fed up with your suicide tactic?”“Shut up.” Sarah glowered at him. “Do you think I like to do this? He refused to pick up my calls or meet me. I have to make him believe that I have nothing to do with Logan’s matter.”“But I reckon he’s suspecting you.” Thomas let out a sigh. “I think you should give up on Eldest Young Master. Young Master Snow isn’t bad either.”“Don’t mention him. That useless man is still locked up by the Snow family.” Sarah closed her eyes.No one in Australia could compare to such an outstanding man like Shaun, so she was reluctant to give up on him. Besides, she was truly in love with Shaun. Otherwise, she would not have stayed by his side even though he could not bring himself to touch her over the past three years.This was the only time Shaun had ignored her when she was hospitalized.The next
“Friends?”Shaun chuckled. “Do you mean the kind of friend who is at her beck and call? But when she calls me and I arrive late, she’ll make a scene? At the same time, I have to take responsibility for her safety and happiness for the rest of her life.”Sarah promptly argued, “No…”“Sarah, when did you turn into this kind of person?” Shaun interrupted her sentence impatiently. “We were merely in a relationship, and we’ve never slept together up until this day. I’ve even given you lots of property and money when we broke up. But why do you always behave like you’ll kill yourself if I refuse to be with you?”He had had enough of everything.He had enough of having to be responsible to Sarah for the rest of his life.He had enough of hurting Catherine over and over again because of Sarah.Sarah was shocked by his fierce expression. “You’ve misunderstood. I wanted to kill myself because I feel that I’m... filthy. Shaunic, I love you. My love for you has never changed.”“Unfortunate
