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
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
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
Slap!A resounding slap landed on Catherine Jones’ face.“You’ve really let me down. Your sister has had a rough time out there for more than 20 years, and here you are planning to snatch the man from her. That’s very shameless of you!” Covering the part of her face that was aching, Catherine looked at her mother incredulously. “Mom, Ethan is my boyfriend. How can you guys be so unreasonable?”Catherine had just come home after a business trip, only to see her long-lost elder sister, Rebecca Jones, sitting with her boyfriend, Ethan Lowe, on the couch. Her sister was holding Ethan’s arm and seemed intimate with him.Seated on the other side of the couch were both Rebecca and Ethan’s parents who were having a pleasant chat with each other.In fact, Ethan was Catherine’s childhood sweetheart!She could not help but come up to Rebecca to question her. However, she ended up being slapped by her mother in the face right there and then!“Mom, please stop hitting Cathy.” With an anxio
Freya was momentarily dumbfounded. She then showed Catherine a thumbs up right away.“Great! What a great idea! I’m on your side! His uncle’s appearance is perfect. Even Ethan isn’t as good-looking as his uncle. His uncle’s wealth and power are also comparable to that of the Lowe family.”“I need to remind you that you have to find an excellent match or your position in Jones Corporation will be inferior to Rebecca’s. So I think his uncle is suitable for you!” Catherine was dazed for a second. Freya might be straightforward, but what she said was true.If Rebecca had the Lowe family backing her, Catherine’s position in Jones Corporation would be at stake.“Okay, I’m going to capture his heart right now!”Catherine snatched Freya’s purse on impulse to search for lipstick and foundation. Her pure face soon looked radiant.Freya blinked. “Uh, are you sure you can deal with him?”“He’s just a man, isn’t he? Hah!”Catherine swept her hair over one shoulder, then held a half-ful
The plot twist happened so quickly that Catherine suspected she had drunk too much.Such a thought remained until Freya came to tap her on the shoulder. She said sympathetically, “Don’t get too upset. It’s not easy to capture the heart of a tall, wealthy, and handsome man. Keep it up—”“No. He told me to meet him at the entrance of the registry office tomorrow at 10 a.m.,” Catherine replied with a dazed look.“...”Freya remained uncannily quiet for a moment before she burst out laughing. “Congratulations on becoming Ethan’s aunt!”Catherine asked, “You believe it?”Freya forcefully pinched Catherine’s soft face.“Why not? Please. With your naturally pure look, you can easily beat those young ladies in the entertainment industry. If I were a man, I’d fall in love with you at first sight. Let’s go and have a drink to celebrate your marriage.” Catherine seriously wondered how much Freya had drunk while she was away.However, Catherine began to have a hangover after drinking alc
Catherine took a taxi directly to the Jones family’s house. At that time, Mr. Jones had already gone to work.She rushed upstairs to take her birth certificate. Just as she walked to the living room, she saw Rebecca coming out of the study with a large pile of documents.Rebecca looked pure with a black bob and a pristine face.“You’re finally back, Sis. I was still worried about what happened yesterday.” A guilty look spread across Rebecca’s face. “It’s just that Ethan is really not into you. You can’t force someone to love you.”Catherine shot her a cold gaze. “Enough is enough. You can stop acting since there’s no one else here. I underestimated you before this.”“Don’t treat me this way.” Rebecca bit her lip, her tears streaming down her face. “I’ll just yield to your demands in the future, okay? I won’t get involved in matters related to the company. I’ll pass you these documents.”As she was speaking, she shoved the documents into Catherine’s hands.Catherine found it stra
Shaun froze and remained silent.The cameraman was inwardly sympathetic toward him. It was a pity that a good-looking man like him was suffering from facial paralysis. After Shaun and Catherine were done taking pictures, they headed to the first floor to register their marriage.It was only when Shaun took out his citizenship certificate that Catherine finally learned his real name—Shaun Hill. However, Ethan’s mother’s surname was Lyons. In that case, his uncle’s surname was supposed to be Lyons as well.In a daze, Catherine asked, “Why is your surname Hill?”“Uh-huh.”As Shaun was lowering his head to sign the documents, he did not bother to know what she meant. He casually answered, “I adopted my mom’s surname.”“Oh.” Catherine finally understood. She had been filled with fear earlier, thinking that it was a case of mistaken identity.She flirted with him for the very reason that he was Ethan’s uncle. However, she felt that something was somehow not right.Ten minutes l
