Chapter 1021

The host of the auction looked awkward. It was his first time encountering such a situation. Freya was so furious that she slammed her hand on the table. “All of you are powerful figures in Australia. Have you no shame? Damn, if I could fork out 50 billion dollars, I would’ve bid the manor.”“Who doesn’t wish to buy the manor? In fact, a lot of people do, but they are forced to listen to Campos Corporation,” Catherine said complicatedly.Someone outside started to bid once more. “40.2 billion dollars.”After hearing this voice, Catherine’s expression changed. Others might not recognize it, but she knew it was Wesley’s voice as she had known him for several years.She never thought that he would come. Did he receive a warning from the Campos family as well?Somehow, Catherine was quite disappointed.In her eyes, Wesley was a gentleman. He could hate Shaun, but he probably would not make things worse for him.Clearly, she was wrong.After Wesley called out 40.2 billion dollar

150 billion dollars was indeed an astronomical price.Mason had warned others not to raise the price. Hence, now that someone had the audacity to call out such a sky-high price, it was plain that he was challenging Campos Corporation.The host was dumbfounded, but he then said excitedly, “150 billion dollars, going once, going twice… Sold.”In the private room, Freya was astonished. “Who was the one who shouted this price out of the blue? 150 billion dollars? Let me do some math. It’s a lot.”“This amount… is not something many people can fork out.” Catherine was surprised. Somehow, the mysterious man whom she caught smoking earlier crossed her mind. “Don’t Mason want to continue bidding?” Freya sighed. “Is that it?”“Considering how petty Mason is, would he be willing to fork out 100 billion dollars? That’d be a joke.” The moment Catherine opened the door, two men blocked her way.“It’s a woman.” One of the men snorted. “Wait here. Chairman Campos would like to meet you.”“He

Freya grasped Catherine’s message within a second. “Precisely. Are you guys insistent on blocking me? Fine. I’ll call Uncle Jason. Let me remind you that I’ll soon be the Snow family’s daughter-in-law.” Charlie instantly felt bad. The elected prime minister next year would most probably come from the Snow family. If they offended Jason, with whom they were currently trying to curry favor, they would be in deep water. Charlie almost forgot that Catherine’s best friend had such an influential background.“It was merely a misunderstanding.” Charlie’s expression immediately switched to a friendly smile. “I was just curious who called out 50 billion dollars.”Freya bit her lip. “We weren’t planning on buying it. We just felt that those wealthy families who kept adding 100 dollars were a disgrace to the other wealthy families in Australia.”Charlie’s expression was extremely cold and unpleasant. However, he had to suppress his rage.Meanwhile, Wesley dropped his gaze, and his expre

Mason did not even harbor hatred for Lea.“Are you here to look for the buyer?” Mason mocked, “From your eager look, you must be thinking about selling your body and pestering the buyer. Unfortunately, you’re old and unattractive. Don’t do such a shameless thing, Lea.”Lea sneered. “Since you were here earlier than me, it means that you’re trying to pester the buyer as well. Unfortunately, she won’t be interested in an old man like you even if she’s rich.”Joanne teased, “My husband is so rich, and it’s always other people who pester him. What’s more, the person who bid for the manor was obviously a man…”“Yeah, it was a man, but he was much more generous than you. 50 billion and 100 dollars. Mason Campos, you’re the first wealthiest Australian who’s so miserly and petty. I felt ashamed on your behalf for bidding that amount.”After Lea finished speaking, she turned on her heel and walked away.Indeed, she was utterly disgusted by her ex-husband.How could one be so petty?Maso

Once Regina turned around, her pretty face fell.Wesley was the one who took her to the auction. He even hugged and touched her in the private room just now. However, as soon as he came out of the room, he put on an elegant front. This man… was not one she could control, so she knew where she stood.Moreover, she did not admire Catherine. Conversely, she found Catherine quite stupid, probably because Catherine was under the impression that Wesley was deep in love with her. …Wesley drove the car.Seated in the passenger seat, Catherine took out a box from her handbag, and inside the box was a blue Patek Philippe SA mechanical watch. “It must have cost you a lot.” Wesley said painfully, “Don’t spend so much on me next time. I should be the one spending it on you instead.”“It doesn’t matter. I think this is my first time getting you a gift.” Catherine took out the watch and put it on for him. It looked gorgeous and luxurious.However, when her eyes settled on his wrist, Sh

Suzie’s voice came from the door.Catherine took the opportunity and snuck out from under Wesley’s arms. “I… I have to bathe Suzie. You should sleep earlier.”Looking at Catherine’s silhouette, which was leaving in a hurry, Wesley’s eyes darkened.He was not a fool. He could sense the rejection of Catherine’s body toward his touch.She repulsed him so much, yet she could willingly accept Shaun.‘Catherine, you were lying when you said you no longer have feelings for Shaun.’...In the bathroom, Catherine’s mind wandered as she bathed Suzie. She did not expect her body to be so repulsive of Wesley.What should she do? She was already his wife, and some responsibilities could not be evaded.“Mom, were you planning to have a baby with Uncle Wesley just now?” Suzie’s words were shocking.Catherine pinched her cheeks with a flushed face. “What nonsense are you talking about? Who told you all these things?”“Uncle Liam told me to never kiss or touch the boys at preschool. Babies

Shaun had thought it through. He did not know if he could be cured or not anyway, so he could not possibly find other women too. As such, he would just raise Liam’s daughter from now on.Firstly, it was to compensate Liam.Secondly, he liked Suzie a lot too. Since Suzie had lost both her parents, he was willing to take up the responsibility of being her father, even though she was not his biological daughter.Catherine was stunned to hear him.Hearing those words coming out from Shaun’s mouth was quite… unbelievable.She knew that no matter whether it was toward her or Sarah in the past, Shaun was the type who would cling on and refuse to let go. His obsession with love was slightly abnormal too.Hence, it was very astonishing to hear him say he would not remarry or have children all of a sudden.Even if Hill Corporation was done for, he did not need to be so discouraged and down.He was a bit different from the Shaun she knew.“Let’s discuss this only after you’ve solved the

Chapter 1028

Catherine only picked up her phone again after Suzie fell asleep. Shaun had sent her a video.She put on earphones, and as she watched the video, her face flushed red. She found it unbelievable. In the video, the lights were not on, but the moonlight shone through the windows.She and Shaun were covered by the blanket. Shaun’s upper body was exposed, and her hands… were circled around his neck tightly.Not only that but her voice… It actually sounded as if she… really enjoyed it.She always thought she was in despair that night. Yet, the video made it look like she and Shaun were lovey-dovey, and that she was willing. Was that the video Wesley watched?She was so embarrassed that she desperately wanted to hit herself. However, once she calmed down and thought about it, no man could possibly stay indifferent after watching that video. Wesley did not mention a word about it after she returned. He even said it was fine as long as it was done against her will.Thinking back at

Catherine understood it quickly. “You’re saying that after Liona’s members threw Liam there, another car came and dragged Liam into it?”Logan nodded. “There’s a big possibility that someone was watching from Liona’s door from the start. Another possibility is that an internal member of Liona leaked the information.”Catherine’s heart trembled.However, after giving it some thought, she totally agreed with Logan’s analysis.“Actually, I didn’t quite believe Liam would leak Hill Corporation’s data. He shouldn’t be that kind of person. I suspect there’s a spy in Liona, and it’s the same person as the one who leaked the data.“Moreover, Liona is the organization that Shaun trusts the most. When the microchip was developed, the first thing he must’ve done was let Liona’s important members guard the laboratory. It would not be impossible for that person to steal the data and find the right timing to frame Liam.”After she said that, Logan glanced with admiration. “Boss, I realize it's

Chapter 1030

“You’re indeed responsible for it.” Old Master Hill glared at Shaun. “You should’ve been present at Hill Corporation personally. If it weren’t for you bringing Catherine overseas, other people wouldn’t have had the chance to sneak in.“But we can’t put all the blame on you either. It’s all fate. You and your mom are actually quite similar. You both like to drive yourselves into a blind alley and don’t know how to treasure things that are supposed to be treasured. Your dad treated her so well back then, but she looked down on him. She kept thinking that Mason was deeply in love with her.”Dad…That word had been unfamiliar to Shaun for a long time.He was in a daze for a moment until he heard Old Madam Hill saying, “There has been no news of your dad for tens of years. I reckon he has already married someone with children overseas.”Just as she finished speaking, a black sedan drove in. Lea got down the car. “What were you guys talking about?”Old Madam Hill said bluntly, “We were
