Shaun, who seldom fell ill, had caught a cold this time.… The next morning at 7:00 a.m.Suzie was still fast asleep. However, Catherine had gotten in the habit of getting up early and preparing breakfast. Since the little one spent the night here, she had to prepare a hearty meal.When passing by the living room, she tried her best not to look at the figure lying on the sofa.“Ahem.” Shaun’s cough sounded.She pretended not to hear and took out a packet of pasta dough from the refrigerator.“I have a cold.” Shaun’s ghostly voice sounded at the door.She ignored him. She was afraid that if she turned around, she might be reminded of the embarrassing incident yesterday and might not be able to refrain from kicking him. “I said I have a cold,” Shaun said again softly while walking up to her.“I don’t care if you have a cold.” Catherine turned around and glared at him with her dark and clear eyes. There was a tinge of redness on her pretty cheeks.Shaun’s sharp eyes picked
“Dude, that’s basic common sense, okay? If you don’t mind hurting your stomach, I’ll give you the medicine now.” Catherine was rendered speechless by his shamelessness.“Is it that hard to admit that you care about me?” Shaun was absolutely confident.“So what if I admit it? Dude, the whole world already knows you’re getting married. Is Eldest Young Master Hill going to abandon his childhood sweetheart fiancee for a little girl like me?”Catherine mocked him before she went into the kitchen to cook the pasta.Shaun stared at her silhouette silently with a complicated look in his eyes.Although he had long known that he had some thoughts about her, he admitted that those thoughts were not enough to affect his feelings for Sarah.However, everything that happened last night had changed his perception of Sarah.Perhaps Sarah was not as kind as he imagined, and Catherine was not as bad as he thought.The pasta was very simple. Within ten minutes, it was cooked.Shaun scarfed the p
“I know, but Uncle is about to get married. Aunty Cathy said that Aunty Sarah would be unhappy if you accompany me every day. I don’t want her to dislike me,” Suzie said innocently.Shaun glared at Catherine with annoyance.“Did I say anything wrong?” Catherine’s beautiful eyes challenged him. “Or do you think that Sarah won’t mind at all?”“...”If it were in the past, Shaun would bet that Sarah was not that kind of person, but now, he was unsure.He gritted his teeth at Catherine’s snub.“Hurry up and leave, so you don’t infect Suzie.” Catherine once again chased him away.Shaun could only resign himself to leaving.Once he was in the car, he gave the order. “Go to the company. I’ve already taken some medicine. I don’t need to go to the hospital.”Hadley looked at him and did not say anything else.After all, putting aside some mental illness, his president was usually quite healthy. He had never gotten a cold all year round, and today was an exception.“Oh right. Make a c
Sarah was shocked, but she tried to maintain a smile on her face. “Of course I do. Children are innocent and lovely, just like little angels. I like them very much.”Shaun pursed his lips.Sarah held his hand and lowered her eyes. “Shaun, I know my mistake last night made you very upset, but it was my first time handling a child, so I was at a loss. I promise I won’t do it again in the future. You can bring Suzie over more often to play next time, and I can practice more on how to take care of children.”If Suzie dared to tell Shaun about what happened yesterday, she had a thousand ways to teach Suzie without her knowing it.Even if Suzie died, Sarah could make it so that she had nothing to do with it.“Practice?” Shaun frowned. “She’s just a little child. Just a little carelessness will get her injured. Even a fishbone or a fruit core might kill her.”With a pale face, Sarah quickly explained, “That’s not what I meant. I’ll be really, really careful. I won’t let something like t
Hence, Shaun wanted to make sure that his children grew up surrounded by parental love. “I will. I’ll take good care of them,” Sarah said while tears fell from her eyes.“Sarah, I can’t trust you. I think we’re still young. Let’s talk about having children sometime later.”Shaun then looked away. “You can go back now. I still have a lot of things to deal with. By the way, you don’t have to prepare my lunch and bring it over anymore. I want you to have your own career rather than let your life revolve around me.”Once he finished speaking, he sat on the office chair and began working.Sarah was so angry that she nearly went mad.However, all she could do was fake an aggrieved look while she walked out of the Hill Corporation’s office.She had never expected that the image she had worked so hard to build would end up tarnished by a child instead of Catherine.At this very moment, Lucifer called Sarah.“Transfer me 100 million dollars now. I’m strapped for cash.”Sarah flew int
Shortly after Catherine left, Suzie stuffed a card into Lucas’s hand. “This is from our scummy dad. Take it and spend it whenever you want. I have one too. Great-grandpa gave it to me.”“I don’t want it.” Lucas tossed it back to Suzie and reminded her, “Susan Jones, are you hoping that our scummy dad will get back together with Mommy?”A guilty look flashed across Suzie’s eyes. “Actually… Our scummy dad is more attractive in real life than in photos. We’ll be honored if we go out with him…”Lucas was at a loss for words. He knew that his sister was unreliable, considering that she admired people with good looks. “Don’t forget that he’s going to marry another woman. He’s a scumbag. If it weren’t for Mommy, who protected us back then, we might not have survived.”Suzie instantly kept quiet. “Also, don’t forget how well Uncle Wesley treats us,” Lucas reminded her bluntly. “All this while, Uncle Wesley has been waiting for Mommy.”“Fine. I’m not going to matchmake them.”Suzie drop
“I’m hanging up now.”“Hold on.” Shaun immediately stopped Catherine. “What brand is it?”“I don’t remember. Anyway, it’s available at the drugstore.” Catherine slammed the phone immediately.Shaun frowned and called her again.“What do you want, Shaun?” Shaun was getting on her nerves. All she wanted was to have a proper nap. Her tone was filled with impatience, but Shaun did not sense it. He was already ill, but at that point, he felt a little feverish again. “I just want to remind you out of the goodness of my heart that Isaac isn’t a good guy. He has smelly feet, and what’s more, he’s interested in men. He got closer to you simply because you’re the successor of Yule Corporation. Don’t think that he’s into you.”“It’s none of your business.” Catherine’s words made him choke with rage.“I reminded you only because you’re my ex-wife. I don’t wish to see you deceived and shamed.”“Thank you, but I don’t think Isaac has smelly feet. I’ll bring him home tonight to find out whet
In a hidden private room.Sarah had waited for over ten minutes before the door was slowly pushed open.A man, who exuded a sense of nobility, slowly walked in. From his brows, he seemed sluggish and careless. “Why are you looking for me, Miss Neeson?”“I’d like to collaborate with you.”Staring at his face, Sarah gave a faint and calm smile.“There’s nothing we can collaborate on. I think you’ve misunderstood me, Miss Neeson. I’m quite busy. If there’s nothing else…”“The Shelley by Shaun’s side three years ago was not the real Shelley,” Sarah said. “When she died later, you replaced her with the real Shelley. If I’m not mistaken, you made Charity the impostor back then with the intention of ruining Shaun and Catherine’s relationship after you sent Charity to jail. Besides that, when that fake Shelley was with Shaun, she continuously messed up Shaun’s medicine that it worsened his condition, including his memory.”The man’s frown gradually turned deeper and colder.He slowly s
