Chapter 2724

“Did you guys agree?” Chester tightened his grip on the wine glass.

“I had to.” Shaun supported his forehead on a hand. There was a helpless and doting smile on his
mouth. “If I dare to disagree, Cathy will definitely take the kids and leave the next moment.”



“Is her relationship with Eliza that good?” Chester was confused.

“It’s that good.” Shaun nodded. “It’s weird, she clearly hasn’t known Eliza for a long time. However,
there are plenty of rooms in the Hill family’s manor. Eliza can even stay there for a year or so.”

Chester took another sip of wine. Was he that hateful to Eliza?

She would rather move to the Hill family’s manor and live under someone else’s roof than return to her
villa.

“Speaking of which, don’t you feel embarrassed making a scene in other people’s neighborhood?” After
letting out a tsk, Shaun said, “Even I can’t do that kind of thing, okay?”

“Embarrassment?” Chester patted his handsome face. “That word isn’t in my dictionary.”

Shaun was speechless. He really could not compare to Chester.



“Do as you wish.” Shaun raised his wine glass and clinked it with Chester’s. “Eliza is no longer staying
there anyway. You won’t be able to bother her even if you make a fuss there every day.”

Chester faked a smile. He rested his arm on Shaun’s shoulder. “Pull some strings for me and let me
move to the Hill family’s manor too.”

Shaun widened his dark eyes. “Are you serious?”

“I’m joking. I won’t put you in a difficult spot. Otherwise, you’ll be kicked out of the bed by Catherine.”

Chester smiled. He held his wine glass and finished its contents. His throat and stomach were bitter.
“Forget it. I won’t bother Eliza anymore.”

“Have you figured everything out? You’re not gonna seek revenge on her anymore?” Shaun was
surprised.

“If I get revenge on her today, she’ll do the same to me the next day. Will there ever be an end to this?”
Chester sighed and shook his head.



He could not tell Shaun that Eliza had a psychological problem where she rejected men.

The problem was that Eliza was not willing to treat it.

Even if Chester managed to have her, what meaning was there in rolling around with a stone in bed
every day?

Did he have to let her consume drugs daily to sleep with him?

Besides, it was just as Doctor Levin said. It might aggravate Eliza’s condition. What if she took a knife
and stabbed him at night? To be honest, with Eliza’s ruthlessness, she could really do it.



There was always Charity standing between Eliza and him.

“You’re not such a kind person.” Shaun was astonished. “Isn’t your principle to destroy something if you
can’t obtain it?”

“I just suddenly find it… meaningless.”

He had never pestered a woman so shamelessly before.

However, Eliza seemed to disdain him greatly.

Chester needed his pride too.

“It’s good this way.” Shaun let out a breath of relief. “It’s just a woman. You’re

destined to be a man who’ll remain single.” “You said different things in the past. You kept telling me
how pleasant it was to find a woman I love and have a child,” Chester snapped. “You even advised me
to settle down earlier.”

“The problem lies with you and not me. You don’t believe in love.” Shaun had hit the nail on the head.
“Therefore, there’s no need to do that. Everyone has their way of living. The way you were in the past
was pretty good. Both parties just took what they needed and were fully willing. There’s no need to
force those people who are unwilling. As a matter of fact, you’ve ruined the company’s and your
reputation after meeting such a difficult opponent like Eliza. Why bother?”

“…You’re right.”

Chester suddenly chuckled. “Eliza and I are fated to live in different worlds. Come.

Let’s have a toast. After this drink, you can tell Catherine to ask Eliza to go back. I won’t bother her
anymore.”



“Keep your promise.” “Mm. I’m a man of my word.”
