Liam rubbed his forehead. Sometimes, women were so sharp that it seemed as if they had antennae. “Actually, I only heard that Shaun, Rodney, and the gang are always dining out with Sarah recently. I’m not sure about the other stuff.”“Instead of distancing himself from his ex, he approaches and hangs out with her instead. Doesn’t this mean he’s going to cheat on me sooner or later?” Catherine bit her lip, feeling a lump form in her throat. “I don’t want my children to grow up without a father.”“Alright.” Liam continued to drive.40 minutes later, the car was parked in front of Maison Bar.Catherine pushed open the car door and got out.“Wait for me.” Worried that something would happen to the babies in her belly, Liam quickly went after her.Catherine walked up the stairs and pushed open the door of each private room. When she pushed the door of the fourth room, she spotted a man and a woman hugging on the couch. The tall and handsome man was Shaun. Meanwhile, Sarah was gently t
“So you’re blaming me for interrupting you and your ex?” Catherine teased Shaun in between her sobs.“I said no, so it means no. Why do you always humiliate people before getting your facts straight? Apologize to Sarah right now,” Shaun ordered her grimly.Apologize?Catherine reacted as though she had just heard the funniest joke on earth.“It’s fine, Shaunic,” Sarah promptly talked him out of it. “You’d better leave with Young Madam now. Ah-choo.”Sarah sneezed and huddled herself up.Shaun quickly took off his coat and put it on her.Feelings of frustration engulfed Catherine all of a sudden.When Shelley, who had a passing resemblance to Sarah, appeared previously, Catherine and Shaun had a blazing row and were on the verge of divorce.Now that Sarah herself was present, would Catherine still have hopes of beating her?Catherine’s eyes conveyed a sense of perplexity.Should she not have come here tonight?Standing at the door was Liam who had been stopping himself from
Catherine cast a complicated glance at Liam. It had been a while since she had a high opinion of him. Liam grinned at her, showing a row of white teeth.At the sight of their flirtatious acts, Shaun’s face darkened.Sarah then said gently, “Your treatment is done for today, Shaunic. You may send your wife home first.”“Okay.” Shaun nodded. It worried him to see Catherine and Liam going back together. As for Sarah, he was sure that she had driven here.When Catherine reached the door, she turned around and looked at Sarah. “Miss Neeson, I hope you can come to the manor when you treat Shaun. I’m sorry for being petty. After all, you’re pretty and also Shaun’s ex while I’m just a pregnant woman. Considering that you’re a woman as well, I’m sure you understand my feelings.” “I understand.” Sarah nodded with a weak smile.When Sarah noticed that Shaun had left without looking back, her pretty face turned somber all of a sudden.Shaun actually left her alone here.If this had happ
Shaun could not believe it at all. “That’s impossible. I’ve seen on the news that the ingredients for barbecue are just casually rinsed.”The boss was speechless.F*ck. Was this person trying to cause trouble? If it had not been for his sturdy physique and outstanding attire, the boss would have asked him to get lost.“If you don’t believe me, I can’t do anything. Perhaps you can choose to eat at another stall,” the boss teased him. “It’s fine. I’ll personally wash the ingredients that my wife is going to eat.” Shaun chose the ingredients that Catherine ordered and cleaned them properly with water.“Are you planning to wash everything, including what your companion has ordered?” the boss gnashed his teeth and asked with a long face.“No. You can choose the dirtiest ingredients for him.”The boss was at a loss for words.How could this person be so mean?Shaun calmly went back to his seat. “My dear, I’ve personally washed the ingredients for you. I can guarantee that they’re c
Shaun pursed his lips in annoyance. “Look after her.”After the call ended, Catherine turned her head around and glanced at Shaun. “What’s wrong? Did something happen to Sarah?”“You heard everything?” Shaun’s eyes glowed. He had adjusted the volume to the lowest level, so he was surprised that she actually heard it.She heard nothing, in fact.It was just that she could somewhat grasp Sarah’s tactics.Sure enough, the woman was not simple.Catherine snorted. “Not only did I guess correctly that something had happened to her, but I’m also sure that Rodney was the one who made the call. Rodney certainly blamed you for not sending Sarah home and wondered why she was soaked, but Sarah was insistent on keeping silent about the truth.”“...”Shaun was so stupefied that he almost doubted if she had planted a bug in his phone.“How do you know?”Catherine curled her lips. As expected, she had guessed it all right. “Rebecca used such tactics before.”Shaun frowned upon hearing that.
“You can check my body to see if there are any marks. I’m innocent.” Shaun stretched out his arms and turned around in front of Catherine.Catherine could not bring herself to look at him. She rose to her feet and pushed him away. Then, she walked to the bathroom. “Get in now, you hoodlum.”“Stop crying, my dear. I’ll only behave like a hoodlum in front of you.” Shaun seized the opportunity to pull her into his arms and planted a kiss on her face. After that, he said shamelessly, “I just feel like behaving like a hoodlum in front of you.”“Shaun, I hate this behavior of yours.”Catherine raised her hands and pounded him. She did not feel better. Instead, she felt increasingly aggrieved and wept more bitterly. “You always criticize me without getting your facts right and begin rewarding me afterward. I disallow from meeting Sarah.”“That’s not possible, babe.” A bitter smile flashed across Shaun’s face. “I’m afraid only she’s capable of treating my illness. Do you want me to suffer
“Also, you must not spend time with Sarah alone except when you go for treatment. I know Rodney and Chester are on friendly terms with her, so they’ll often meet each other. If the four of you meet up next time, you can bring me along.”Catherine buried her face in Shaun’s chest with an endearing look.It had been a long while since she behaved meekly in front of him. He became soft-hearted and confused in an instant. “But Rodney and Chester—”“I know they dislike me, but that’s okay. I can bear with it as long as I get to prevent my husband from being snatched away by another woman.”Catherine lifted her head and blinked her charming large eyes. “It’s because you’re too handsome. I love you.” “Babe, I’ll listen to you.” Shaun’s eyes lit up. He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.He sighed deep down as he was completely dominated by the woman. In this case, how could anything possibly happen between Sarah and him? Anyway, it did not matter as long as she was happy. If s
Old Master Hill furrowed his brows. He had met Sarah before this and disliked her more than Catherine. “Aren’t there any other psychologists in the world? Why must you have her treat your illness? Get someone else.”Old Madam Hill nodded. “Exactly. How could you ask your ex to treat you? Have you ever thought of your wife’s feelings?”Catherine let out a sigh of relief. By the looks of it, Old Master Hill and Old Madam Hill were not fond of Sarah.A bitter smile appeared on Shaun’s face. “Chester said that she’s the most brilliant psychologist in the US. When I asked her to come over previously, I didn’t expect her to be Sarah either.”Old Master Hill remained silent for a moment before he nodded. “Fine, but you have to be mindful of your behavior. Don’t go astray. I hope you won’t follow in your mom’s footsteps.”“I definitely won’t, Grandpa.”Shaun nodded.On his way to the office, he gave Sarah a call to discuss the location for his treatment. “I’ve actually expected this.
