The more Catherine spoke, the more infuriated she became. Despite having learned to control her emotions over these few years, she still could not help but lose her cool at that moment. Shaun, who was already simmering with rage, was uncertain how to respond to her question. “How would I have known that the company is the legacy your mom left for you?”Catherine smiled. “Yeah, right. You didn’t know about it. You know nothing.”He actually knew it. It was just that he had forgotten it.Even so, she would not forgive him just because he had forgotten it.‘It’s okay if you’ve forgotten it, but you can’t possibly leave me in the lurch for the sake of a woman.’“Anyway, you shouldn’t have attacked Sarah,” Shaun said grumpily, “It’s your fault that you faked your death. Sarah went to great lengths to manage Hudson and has improved the company’s performance significantly.”“Aren’t there any other talents in Hudson Corporation? Previously, General Manager Wolfe did a great job in mana
Catherine struggled to break free from Shaun without realizing that she was moving around in his arms. By the time she was aware of the changes in him, her face was already flushing with embarrassment.“Shaun, what a b*stard you are.”Visibly embarrassed, he was also quite shocked deep down.He had always assumed that he would no longer be aroused. Therefore, whenever he met Sarah, he subconsciously felt disgusted by her. He even suspected that he was incompetent.Little did he expect that he would be aroused simply by hugging Catherine. This feeling made him particularly humiliated, and he somehow lost control as well.Annoyed by Catherine’s remark, he said, “What makes me a b*stard? You’re the one who’s indecent. I’m a normal man.”“Are you? You visited the andrology unit this morning,” Catherine blurted out. Shaun was so ashamed that his ears went scarlet. He almost had the thought of killing her. “I’ve told you that I went there to keep Hadley company.”“Are you treating
Shaun gritted his teeth and walked to Catherine. Then, he said nonchalantly, “You’re trying to seduce me.”“Huh?” Catherine was totally caught off guard. Her dark charming eyes revealed a sense of innocence and bewilderment. Little did she realize how seductive she looked at the moment. “What did I do?”“You know better than anyone else.” Shaun fixed his gaze on her glowing eyes and scoffed at her deep down. This was exactly how she was seducing him.Speechless, Catherine subconsciously looked down. “You’re finally done, huh?”Shaun glowered at her fiercely, his ears turning red without him realizing it. “Catherine Jones, what’s on your mind? Have you no shame?”Catherine raised her brows. He was basically a b*stard, but why did his ears go red? Was he trying to act pure? “I was just thinking that you didn’t need to visit the andrology unit and Sarah should be the one who should see the doctor. As a woman, there’s no need to be so desirous. With your condition, she should be conte
“...”Hearing Shaun talk could be really frustrating.Therefore, Catherine decided to ignore him and focused on chopping the vegetables.She perfectly julienned the potatoes into thin slices.He twitched his brows into a frown. “I can appeal to the court if you refuse to sign the divorce papers. A married couple can appeal to the judge after living separately for two years.”“Sure, let’s meet in court. But things are going to get interesting if the reporters find out we’re still married. I’m not going to be responsible for maintaining your girlfriend’s reputation again.”She replied nonchalantly.This infuriated him. “What can I do to make you sign the papers?”“Hmm, I haven’t thought about that yet.”She pushed him out of the way and began heating the pan.Once the oil was heated, she placed the julienned potatoes in, and soon, a delicious smell filled the room. She sprinkled some chopped green onions on it in the end. The presentation and smell were on point.Suddenly, Sha
Seriously?Had Shaun been starving himself in the past three years? Was he so hungry that he got himself the largest bowl in her kitchen?Catherine finally understood where Suzie got her big appetite from.“Are you planning to eat all my food?”She was annoyed at that realization. She finally had the chance to cook after returning home and this happened?“You didn’t cook enough,” he said before helping himself to the fresh and juicy shrimps. It had been so long since food could satisfy him.Shaun did not usually have a good appetite. He was also an extremely picky eater who could not even be satisfied by famous chefs. However, Catherine’s home-cooked meal was surprisingly delicious.That slightly sour julienned potato was also appetizing.Not to mention the sausages that were a little charred on the edge. He wondered where she bought the ingredients from.Soon, he finished everything in his bowl—as well as the other dishes on the table. Catherine was annoyed. “Couldn’t you h
Bang! The door kicked open out of the blue. Liam, who was working at the desk, looked up. He soon regained his composure after seeing the overcast expression on Shaun’s face.“President Hill, is there something—”Shaun punched him in the face before he could finish the sentence. Liam was caught off guard. The corners of his lips began oozing blood.The secretary by the door quickly made a phone call to Vice Director Hill in secret.“Shaun, don’t think I’m afraid of you just because you have full control over Hill Corporation. I’m also part of the family.” Liam was shaking out of rage.“Why do you think I hit you?” Shaun grabbed the other man’s collar aggressively. “You tricked me by faking Catherine’s death three years ago. Liam, have I been overly kind to you recently? I even forgave you for that time you set me up. But now you’re doing it again.”Liam twitched his lips into a cold smile. “You have the cheek to say that. You would’ve killed someone three years ago if I hadn’t
“It’s fine, Mom, don’t worry about it. He’s not going to cause trouble for me again.” Liam forced a smile. “You should go.”After Lea left, he lowered his gaze to the ground, almost breaking the pen in his hand.In fact, he was really annoyed that Shaun could gain the upper hand over him every single time. He thought about the smug and arrogant expression on Shaun’s face when he barged in to punch him today.It was time to get off work.Charlie suddenly called him. “Liam, I heard you got punched.”“Who did you hear it from?” Liam narrowed his eyes.The other person sighed. “It’s not just me. Many people from Canberra’s elite society have heard how Shaun barged into your office and punched you. There’s no such thing as secrets in this place.”Liam clenched his fingers around the phone. In Canberra, everyone took Second Young Master Hill as a joke.“Hey, at the very least, you’re the second young master of Hill Corporation. He crossed the line when he punched you. Why couldn’t he
Then Sarah would have lied to Shaun about Catherine’s depression when she convinced him to send the woman to a mental hospital.If Catherine had not ‘died’ three years ago, he might really have sent her back to a mental hospital and that would certainly drive her to actually become mad. Thinking about this was enough to make him shudder.“What’s the matter? Why are you looking at me like that?” Sarah felt uneasy under his stare.“Sarah, did Catherine really have depression three years ago?” He suddenly looked at her seriously.The woman was flustered but she maintained her composure. “Don’t you believe me?”He lowered his gaze to the ground. “It’s not that, I just… I just think she’s really normal now, unlike someone who’s been sick before. In fact, I don’t remember checking in on her after sending her to the mental hospital.”She twitched her lips. “Actually, when she went to the hospital three years ago, I thought of giving her a proper diagnosis but I didn't dare to approach
