Chapter 158 – Revenge Marriage Sweet Love Novel Free Online (Cate & Shaun)

Filed to story: Revenge Marriage Sweet Love Novel Read Free Online

Shaun glanced at her profile from the living room, and his cold eyes flashed with a trace of tenderness.

On a night like this, the woman seemed to be his wife who was taking care of his daily life.

The cold house seemed to resemble a home now.

He thought about it before taking out his phone and sending a message to Hadley. [No need to help the Wick family with that plot of land along the coastline. Give it to Hudson instead.]

Hadley, who was preparing to sleep: [???]

Eldest Young Master Lyons changed his thoughts every day. How tiring.

…

After washing the clothes, Cate came out to see Shaun sitting on the sofa. He had on a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and was reading documents. The desk was piled with paperwork. She used to think he looked very charming when he worked, but he was wearing pajamas now and his hair was half-dry, making him look even more charming.

However, it was almost 1:00 a.m. but he was still working. With how hard he worked, it could be said that it was reasonable he could rule Lyons Corporation with an iron fist.

He had not slept yet, so she could not slack off either. She continued to mop the floor.

When her eyes were sore and her back hurt, the man’s cold voice sounded. “Go warm the bed for me.”

What?

Cate looked at him blankly, wondering if she heard him wrongly.

“The blanket is too cold. Hurry up,” Shaun ordered.

“I’m not in charge of something like that.” Cate had trouble accepting it. “Don’t you find me dirty?”

Shaun got up expressionlessly. He took out a small bottle from the cupboard and sprayed it at her.

“…”

Cate could make out the scent of disinfectant, and her beautiful facial features contorted like she had stepped on a piece of turd.

“You’re disinfected now, so go. You have no right to refuse.”

Shaun sat back down to work.

Cate struggled helplessly for a while and finally entered the master bedroom.

His bed and sheets were extremely comfortable, and she was so tired that she fell asleep less than half a minute after lying down.

When Shaun put down the documents in his hand, he found that it was already 3:00 a.m.

He took off his glasses and walked upstairs. He was met with the sweet sight of a petite woman sleeping on the large bed, just like the night before.

He lay down on the warm bed. Cate seemed to have habitually felt his familiar scent and turned around to burrow into his arms.

He looked at her, his eyes soft and complex.

It was easy to stay in bed on such a day, but he was the president of Lyons Corporation. There were a lot of things in the company he still had to deal with after just returning to Lyons Corporation.

…

At 6:00 a.m., he gently got out of bed.

Cate was woken up by him. While in a daze, she saw that the sky outside was not bright yet.

Shaun saw her silly appearance and smiled. “I’m going to the company. Go back to sleep.”

Then, he changed his clothes and left.

Cate looked at the time. It was only 6:00 a.m.

She remembered that she had slept at 2:00 a.m. last night. God, did he always work so hard when he was in the capital? It was no wonder he became the richest man in the country. However, that must not be good for his body, right?

Cate knitted her brows. She did not want to worry about him, but she just could not help herself.

8:00 a.m.

Cate walked into the villa with a yawn.

Melanie, who was eating breakfast, immediately got up and said, “Dad, look. I told you she went out last night and didn’t return all night. What kind of proper lady stays out all night? I think she might be fooling around outside.”

“…”

Cate glanced at her and sneered in her heart. If Melanie had handled her boyfriend better, would Cate still have needed to go there in the middle of the night to serve him?

“What’s that look for? Did I say anything wrong?” Melanie retorted righteously.

“No, you’re right. It’s because I’m not a proper lady. You were the one who called me a country bumpkin and an illegitimate daughter.” Cate smiled and ignored her. She sat down at the table to have breakfast calmly and elegantly.

“Dad, did you hear what she said…”

“Stop arguing. I believe in Cate. She already has a fiancé,” Joel interrupted with a cold face. “Besides, didn’t you used to always play around at night as well? You have quite some nerve to talk about her.”

Melanie flushed in embarrassment and stomped her foot in anger. “Dad, you’re too biased…”

At the side, Nicola’s phone suddenly rang. She answered the call and stood up angrily. “What? The plot of land was given to Hudson… What happened? Didn’t you say that Eldest Young Master Lyons talked to them?”

Cate froze and choked on her sandwich. Nicola had already hung up and was pointing at her. “Cate Cox, what the hell did you do? Why was the plot of land on the coastline taken away by Hudson?”

“That can’t be.” Melanie was also shocked. “Is it possible that there’s someone else who dares to go against Eldest Young Master Lyons?”

“Your uncle personally called me and said that the other party has suddenly changed their mind.” Nicola stared at her and said, “Cate, you’re a girl who just arrived here and has no connections besides your father. You didn’t stay out all night to do something unseemly, right? The land doesn’t matter, but you can’t embarrass the Yule family.”

Hearing that, Joel also frowned at Cate. He did not want to believe it, but it was something that even he could not control, so it was really quite fishy.

Cate looked up with a calm face. “Aunty, are you saying that I slept outside last night in order to get the land? In that case, whose company did you think I sought?”

She suddenly laughed. “Who has the ability to go against Eldest Young Master Lyons? I think that instead of trying to accuse me of misbehaving, you should wonder whether Melanie has offended the young master, or maybe he decided not to help her because he was displeased with her.”

Cate just about finished eating, so she wiped her hands and went upstairs to change her clothes.

Joel also lost his appetite and got up. “You two are always stirring up trouble.”

Then, he turned and left.

Nicola whirled to Melanie. “What the hell happened with Eldest Young Master Lyons?”

“I don’t know either. He rarely takes my calls.” Melanie thought for a moment before saying, “I’ll go look for him.”

…

Upstairs, Cate stood on the balcony and watched as Joel’s car drove away. She hesitated for a moment before sending Shaun a message. [About the land… You’re not helping the Wicks family anymore?]

After asking, she suddenly became nervous. To be honest, she had not thought about begging him before, much less thought that he would not help Melanie.

However, now that she got the land again, she was very excited.

Five minutes later, Shaun replied: [Yeah.]

Cate: [Thank you.]

Shaun: [If you really want to thank me, use your own hands to serve me next time.]

“…”

Cate’s fair little face felt so hot that it nearly burst into flames. Could this man be any more shameless?

She took a deep breath and replied in annoyance: [The land was originally going to fall into my hands anyway until you took it away. It’s good enough that I’m not scolding you, you hoodlum.]

Then, she tossed her phone and ignored him.
