Everyone thought that she had grabbed Shelley’s hair because she was jealous and angry, but her real reason was to get Shelley’s hair. She had to have a legitimate excuse. Otherwise, Shelley would be suspicious.
Mireya’s eyes widened. “That’s impossible…”
“It’s very possible. Rosabella is missing, and this Shelley gives me a very familiar feeling,” Cate said, “If Shelley Langley is really Rosabella Cox, there must be some forces backing her. The person behind her must be targeting Shaun. This isn’t something that we can handle with brute force.”
“Aren’t you going to tell Shaun?” Mireya choked on her saliva.
“Would he believe me?”
“…”
Mireya fell silent. Shaun might really not believe her. “In that case, I’ll go back to Melbourne tomorrow at noon.”
Not long after she left, Harvey entered with some documents with a smile on his face. After all, Cate was pregnant with Shaun’s children, so her position would be further reinforced and Hudson would have a brighter future. He knew he had not chosen to follow the wrong person.
“President Cox, General Manager Wolfe gave these to me and said that you’ll have to go over them personally.”
Cate took the documents when Shaun suddenly entered. His face darkened when he saw the documents. “The doctor said that she can’t work now. Who allowed you to bring these in to disturb her?”
Harvey was slightly flustered.
Cate was displeased. “Are you saying I don’t have to manage the company just because I’m hospitalized? It’s not like I can rely on a man who’s always having ambiguous relationships with another woman. I might even suddenly be dumped one day and be left with nothing.”
Shaun’s scalp went numb. “I won’t—”
“You won’t leave me with nothing? You’ll give me some money? When we first got married, you clearly told me that I wouldn’t get a single dime.” Cate laughed.
Harvey was shocked and sneaked a look at Shaun. He thought that Eldest Young Master Lyons was a magnificent lover, but holy crap! It turned out that he was even worse than the scumbags outside. He was the richest man in the country yet he refused to give a dime as alimony.
That was too stingy.
Shaun felt the man’s disdain toward him and his expression instantly went dark. He took out his wallet from his back pocket and threw it at her. “Fine, I’ll give you all my money from now on, okay?”
“No thank you. There are only a few men who put money in their cards these days. Most of them use the money for investments.” Cate did not even glance at him.
Shaun could not win against her and could only say to Harvey, “Give those documents to me. I’ll handle them.”
Right at that moment, Hadley staggered when he heard the words. Enough was enough. Shaun said he did not have time to deal with his own company’s affairs, yet he had all the time to meddle in another company’s matters.
‘Eldest Young Master Lyons, you’re acting more and more henpecked!’
Shaun took the documents and found a place on the sofa to read through them carefully.
Aunty Yasmine came in with fruits and was surprised. “Eldest Young Master Lyons, are you done with the IV drip? It usually takes at least four hours.”
Hadley said helplessly, “Eldest Young Master Lyons used the biggest needle and finished it in two and a half hours in order to accompany Young Madam.”
Aunty Yasmine, “…”
Cate silently watched the speed of her own IV drip. This one was just a little faster, but the pain was already unbearable. If he used the largest needle, the flow would be akin to a steady release of water. Extraordinary!
Due to Shaun’s formidable aura, everyone silently went out of the ward to avoid him.
Ten minutes later, Cate moved her body and got ready to get out of bed. Shaun immediately got up. “Don’t move. The doctor said you should stay in bed.”
“I have to go to the toilet.” Cate snapped. “The doctor just told me to move less.”
“Don’t nag. I’ll carry you if you want to go.” Shaun said nothing more and picked her up. He placed her down on the toilet, even forcibly taking off her gown.
Cate’s whole face was red with anger. “Cut it out. My hands aren’t disabled.”
“The doctor said you have to be calm…”
“Sorry, but I can’t be calm when you’re around.”
“Be good. The book said that when a woman is pregnant, the father-to-be should care for the mother and comfort her. If I leave you alone, you’ll definitely have wild thoughts.” Shaun coaxed her gently and patiently.
“That’s enough. I won’t do anything like that.”
“The book said that women never mean what they say.”
“…”
Cate almost died from aggravation. What kind of stupid book was he reading? “Stand outside or I can’t go.”
Shaun could only go outside and wait at the door.
When Cate got up, she found that the pad was dirty and needed to be replaced with a new one, but all the new ones were outside.
She bit her lip and said to the man outside with a low voice, “Shaun Lyons, help me get a pad. You can call Aunty Yasmine over too.”
“No need.”
Shaun opened the drawer and quickly found the pads.
He opened one up and studied it for a while. He quickly figured out the correct way to use it.
After opening the door, Cate held her hand out.
“Stand up. I’ll put it on for you,” Shaun said, “You’ll have to bend over when you put it. It’s not good for the baby.”
“I can’t even bend my waist now that I’m pregnant?”
“Be good. This is an extraordinary time in our lives. It’s for the sake of our little darlings.” Shaun picked her up and helped her put the pad on.
During the whole process, Cate wanted to smash her head and kill herself.
When she returned to bed, her whole face was as red as the fruit on the table.
She became annoyed by the sight and wanted to eat one, but Shaun immediately got up again when she grabbed the knife to cut the fruit. “Sit down. I’ll do it.”
In short, Shaun stayed in the ward the entire afternoon and evening. Cate was not allowed to touch anything. All she was allowed to do was lay down, lean back, and sleep.
As a result of sleeping too much, she woke up at 6:00 a.m. the next day.
When she opened her eyes, she found that Shaun was sleeping on the same pillow as her. She did not know when he squeezed up to her last night.
Her anger flared when she remembered the image of how Shelley had grabbed his hand yesterday.
