Chester was stumped for words. At the thought that he would one day be despised, he frowned grimly.
“In fact, there are many good women in this world, but you always look down on them. There’s no need for that. Look at Cate and Mireya. They grew up in small towns, didn’t they? I’ve even seen many well-
behaved women refusing to drink when I attend some social functions.
Women with these qualities are rare.”
Chester darted a profound glance at Shaun. “Cate has changed you quite a lot.”
Shaun snorted. “I have obedient children and a beautiful wife. You don’t know how fulfilling and blissful my life is now.”
Chester was at a loss for words.
Indeed, he did not understand.
Beautiful wife?
Children?
How would that feel?
It all felt too far away from him.
The plane landed at Canberra Airport.
Eliza turned on her phone and received a WhatsApp message from Max. [Are you back? Do you want to have dinner together? ]
At the thought of the gift in her suitcase that she planned to give Max, Eliza hesitated for a moment.
“Wow. Mr. Langston is asking you out.” Cate leaned over to glance at the message and said playfully, “Just go. You have nothing much to do recently anyway. You might as well get a boyfriend.”
“Actually, I don’t want to get a boyfriend.” Eliza felt conflicted. She had been too deeply hurt from the relationship in her previous life that she was now resistant to relationships.
Furthermore, she was using Eliza’s body. What gave her the right to be happy?
Besides, even if she managed to take revenge, her heart was already filled with scars. She did not want to be in a relationship at all.
Suzie jumped toward Eliza. “Aunty Lizzie, don’t you want to have a cute princess like me?”
Eliza lowered her head and stared at Suzie’s cute face. “I’m very fond of you, but I’ve never thought about being a mother.”
Cate was momentarily stunned. ” Lizzie, not all men are like Monte and Chester.”
“I know.” Eliza was glum. “I just… don’t know how to love someone anymore. “
Love was an instinct, yet she seemed to have no idea how to do it.
Dumbfounded, Cate did not know what to say.
Even though Shaun had hurt her severely, she did not feel the same as Eliza.

After the two of them walked out of the airport, Shaun personally came to pick up his wife and children.
Then, he sent Eliza back to her villa.
After watching the car leave, Eliza turned around and wanted to enter the villa when a few husky men suddenly came from behind to surround her.
“Miss Robbins, Young Master Jewell would like you to meet him,” One of the burly men, who was 1.9 meters tall, walked up to her and said.
“What if I say no?” Eliza asked composedly.
“We’ll have no choice but to bring you there by force,” the man warned.
“…Okay.”
Eliza nodded.
The burly man threw a strange look at her. It was rare for a woman to be so calm in the face of such a situation.
Those men sent Eliza to the villa on Sherman Mountain.
Ever since Chester was discharged from the hospital, he had been recuperating in his own villa.
Eliza had been to Sherman Mountain numerous times but mainly to visit the Lyons family’s manor. It was her first time visiting Chester’s place.
Although Chester’s place was not as big as the Lyons family’s manor, it was over 2000 square feet.
When Eliza entered the villa, Chester was lying on a recliner in a loose, casual outfit. His injured leg was bandaged and placed on the chair.
The sunlight from the sunset fell on his handsome face, and his thick eyelashes cast a shadow beneath his eyelids.
“Miss Robbins, you had so much fun overseas. I finally managed to have you over.” Chester sized her down with his dark gaze. “Let me look at you. You’ve been doing well lately, huh? Your cheeks look chubby and rosy.”
“Thank you for the compliment, President Jewell,” Eliza responded with a gentle and calm tone.
Her behavior exasperated Chester. “Eliza, do you think I was complimenting you? I was admitted to the hospital because of you, yet you were having a great holiday overseas. Do you not take me seriously, or do you think I don’t dare to deal with you?”
“What do you mean by deal with?” Eliza suddenly asked.
When Chester met her dark eyes, he was momentarily stunned before getting furious. “Are you under the impression that I’ll have s*x with you? Dream on.”
“That’s good.” Eliza nodded. “I despise you too.”
“What are you saying?” shocked, Chester looked at her in disbelief.
The bodyguard beside him was dumbfounded too.
What a rare scene. It was his first time seeing a woman challenging Chester so daringly.
“Didn’t I make myself clear?” Eliza’s eyes revealed a sense of laziness. “You may be injured, but why can’t I have rosy cheeks? Are you the one who calls the shots in Australia? If you can do that, why don’t you become the prime minister?”
“Eliza…”
Chester clutched the arm of the recliner with grim eyes. They were so grim that it seemed like he was going to eat her up.
“How dare you.” The burly bodyguard screamed, “Apologize to President Jewell right away, otherwise, don’t blame US for being rude to you.”
“President Jewell, I’m going to meet Max for dinner. If I disappear or die in your villa, I’m afraid you’ll be in trouble.” Eliza raised her brows. A fearless look remained visible on her pretty face.
Chester glared at her, wishing he could poke a hole in her eyes. “Nice. You’ve managed to hit on Max within a few days, huh? No wonder you’re so arrogant. But what do you think a mere Max can do to me? Or do you think you’re capable enough to influence him? Dream on, Eliza, who are you?”
“Let’s give it a try, and you’ll know. In fact, my connections aren’t as bad as you think, President Jewell.”
Eliza slowly walked up to him and exchanged glances with him contemptuously, “why don’t… you ask your bodyguard to try to break one of my legs?”
Chester’s eyes met Eliza’s.
Her eyes were calm, dark, and without a trace of fear.
No woman had ever dared to meet Chester’s eyes so fearlessly or even challenge him.
As Chester suddenly recalled how Eliza was behaving back then, he narrowed his eyes with mixed feelings. “Eliza, you never used to behave like that. Who gave you the courage to behave like this?”
“Of course, it’s because my men have left Australia,” Eliza said frankly without intending to hide the truth.
God knew how disgusting it was for her to pretend to be with him earlier.
Chester fixed his eyes on her for a long time until he finally saw the light.
“I see.”
