Chapter 1653


    On the third floor, Francis ced his hands on the wall in the dim corridor, confining Shirley in a


    narrow space.


    Shirley was in betweenughter and tears. "Are we not done with the act?"


    Francis shushed her. "Listen, someone''sing.”


    Shirley was slightly stunned as Francis'' gaze shifted toward the top of the stairs. Seeing the ck


    leather shoes walking out of the elevator doors, he leaned over to kiss Shirley''s neck.


    Cole saw Francis and Shirley who were stered against the wall, and his handsome face became


    filled with frost. "What are the two of you doing?"


    Francis raised his gaze and wiped his mouth as if he was unsatisfied. Then, he looked at Cole


    resentfully." Hey there, brother, are you perhaps blind? We''re lovers making out passionately. Why


    are you making a fuss?”


    Cole walked over, and his eyes fell on Shirley''s face. "D o you really like him?"


    Shirley forced herself to nod repeatedly.


    Cole sneered at her, "Then, what was the point of you deliberately moving into my vi in Mount


    Pearl?"


    Shirley raised her glistening pupils and bit her lip while saying, "I wanted Dawn to have a dad, and


    you were the most suitable candidate. However, you had promptly refused me. I can only choose


    someone else now."


    Cole''s eyes turned dark. "I’ll give you a lot of money. You and Dawn can live your lives without


    relying on other men."


    Francis touched his chin and had a shrewd thought." Shir, did you hear that? He''s giving you a lot of


    money. We can use his money to expand mypany... Rest assured, I''ll give you and Dawn a


    good life."


    Cole could not tolerate Shirley using his money to raise a good-for-nothing man. He suddenly


    waved his fist at Francis. "I hate men who live off a woman the most."


    Francis'' eyes were immediately bruised like a panda''s.


    Shirley hurriedly went between Cole and Francis, using the child in her arms as a shield. She said


    furiously, "If you want to hit him, then just hit my baby and me first. We''re the ones who have to rely


    on others to live."


    Cole did not expect that Shirley would use the child as a shield to protect a sappy man. He was so


    indignant that he felt a pang in his heart and said furiously," You''re despicable, Shirley Severe."


    Shirley smiled at him instead. "Why are you angry at me for looking for a boyfriend?"


    Cole was dumbfounded.


    Shirley questioned him again, "You’re the one who said you want nothing to do with Dawn and me.


    Are you regretting it now?"


    Cole was dumbstruck once more.


    Shirley continued with a stern face, "Young Master Yorks, I thought about marrying you before so


    that Dawn could have aplete family. But now, I no longer have such an idea in mind because


    bing a daughter-inw in the Yorks family is the worst thing that could happen to a woman. I''d


    rather marry any Tom, Dick, or Harry than marry a Yorks. So please keep your promise and keep


    your distance from me."


    Once Shirley was done, she carried the baby with her and left.

    Cole looked at Shirley in disbelief. Was that woman showing utter despise toward him?


    When Shirley walked toward the stairs, she happened to stumble into Grand Old Master Yorks who


    was heading upstairs to look for Cole. Grand Old Master Yorks had heard every word Shirley said


    earlier, and h e was instantly rooted in ce. 1


    He had always been intensely proud of his precious grandson. He had good looks, many talents,


    and an unruly disposition. He was simply the man of many women’s dreams. However, he had just


    been rejected b y an orphan?
