Chapter 1735

“You’re finally begging me.”

At the sight of how defeated Catherine looked, Wesley was so elated that words could not describe
how smug he was. “But the way you’re begging me seems far too casual. Um, you should at least
take off your clothes and wait for me in bed.”

He whispered in her ear, “Why don’t… you give it a try now? If I’m satisfied with the way you serve me,
I might speak up for you in front of your mom.”

Catherine raised her head and almost threw up at the sight of his sleazy expression.

A moment later, she forcefully escaped his grip. “Do you think you deserve to sleep with me? Look at
your disgusting face. You’re ugly and old.”

“Catherine Jones, do you have a death wish?” At that moment, Wesley’s good mood was ruined, and
there was a look of exasperation in his eyes. “Do you know the consequences of offending me? Don’t
expect Titus to save you. Although he’s on friendly terms with Prime Minister Snow, his men can’t enter
Australia because I have Gavin backing me.

Currently, even Prime Minister Snow is too scared to offend Gavin. If you’re expecting Freya and
Titus’s help, you can dream on. You’re all on your own right now.”

He approached her step by step with a grim smile. “ Don’t expect your family to take you abroad as
well. All I need to do is pull some strings with Minister Mead and your family won’t be able to get the
international travel formalities done overnight. I can simply drag it on for a month, but who knows
what’s going to happen in the next one month?”

Catherine shuddered.



This man was like a devil. No, he was more vicious than a devil.

“I’ll wait for your call. I’ve never changed my number because of you.” Wesley snorted softly before he
strode out.

Looking at Wesley’s figure, Catherine wished she could knock him over with a car.



Luckily, she did not drive today.

After leaving Hill Corporation, her heart felt heavy.

Having come this far, she felt nothing but exhaustion. She had an overwhelming urge to kill herself.
However, what would happen to her kids and Joel, then?

She wandered along the road in a daze.

Not far away, a Bentley was driving toward her.

Hannah, who was in the car, happened to be gazing out of the window when she immediately spotted
the abstracted Catherine outside.

She glanced sideways at Shaun, who was looking at his phone. Then, she quietly shot a look at the
driver in front.

The driver deliberately turned the steering wheel to one side. Coincidentally, a puddle of water by the
roadside splashed onto Catherine’s pants and shirt.

The driver suddenly slammed the brakes.



Shaun lifted his head, and Hannah said with a grin, “Did you get a fright? The driver was driving too
fast just now, and I think a puddle of water at the roadside has hit someone. I’m going to apologize to
that person.”

Shaun looked out of the window, only to catch sight of Catherine drenched to the skin. His eyes were
riveted on her for a moment.

“Don’t you know how to drive?” Catherine lost her temper. When she looked up, she saw Hannah
strutting out of the rear seat in a coat.

“Hey. Aren’t you Miss Jones? I’m sorry.” Hannah covered her nose, feigning disdain. “It smells so bad.”

Catherine’s face darkened. She instantly said, “If I had known earlier that I’d come across an ugly
creature here, I wouldn’t have left my house.”

“Stop it. You’re just a little wet, aren’t you? I’ve come to apologize to you just because I’m well-
mannered. In fact, I’d say you deserve this for walking so close to the puddle.” Hannah’s expression
shifted. Then, she turned around and opened the rear door, where she said to the man inside in an
aggrieved yet coquettish manner, “ Shaun, did you hear what she said? It’s humiliating. She must
apologize to me today.”
