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

After hanging up, Cate still could not get through to Shaun, so she finally called Hadley.

Hadley finally picked up after it rang for a long time. “Young Madam, is something wrong?”

“Why isn’t Shaun picking up my calls?”

“Eldest Young Master Lyons is… in a meeting.”

“Then what about yesterday, and the day before yesterday? He hasn’t been answering my calls,” Cate said in annoyance, “I don’t care. Tell him to come back to the manor by evening, or… Or I’ll go to him instead.”

“Young Madam, please don’t force me. Eldest Young Master Lyons is busy…”

“What is he so busy with that he hasn’t been home for days and doesn’t pick up my calls? Or maybe he has another woman by his side now?” Cate laughed coldly. “Did a person who looks like Sarah Langley appear again?”

“… No, I’ll inform Eldest Young Master Lyons,” Hadley, feeling a headache coming on.

At 2:00 p.m., Cate received a call from Mireya again. “It’s over. Something really did happen to Charity. She was arrested by the police. They said she got people to kill Shelley Langley. Her father suffered a heart attack and was sent to the hospital. Her mother is looking for help everywhere but no one is willing to help her. Rumor has it that the Lyons, Jewell, and Snow families personally gave an order. Whoever dares to save Charity Neeson is going against them.”

“How could that be?” Cate felt like her brain might explode. “Shelley Langley is dead?”

“Yeah. They must be crazy. Shelley Langley is Rosabella Cox, so what if she’s dead? What has it got to do with Charity?” Mireya said, “I’m in the hospital with her parents now. They’re so pitiful. All their relatives are avoiding them, and all their servants have run away too. Neeson Corporation is also going out of business.”

“I’ll go look for Shaun.”

Cate’s head was numb. She could not wait until nighttime.

She drove straight to the gates, but the doorman refused to open the gates for her.

“Young Madam, you can’t go out alone without the old madam and old master’s permission.” The doorman looked at a loss.

“Enough. I have to go out today. I’m going to find Shaun.” Cate no longer had any patience. “If you don’t open the gates, I’ll crash into them.”

“Don’t! Calm down.” The doorman was at his wit’s end when a black Bentley sedan drove over.

Shaun stepped out from inside the vehicle, his tailored black suit setting off his cold aura.

“Eldest Young Master Lyons, you’re just in time. Young Madam wants to see you.” The doorman acted like he had seen his savior.

Cate sat in the sports car gripping the steering wheel. When Shaun walked over to the car window, he saw the woman inside still wearing pink pajamas. During this period of time, the kitchen and servants had been serving her nutritious food and drinks, so her skin had become more delicate than ever.

“I’m back. Let’s go in.” Shaun opened the door and carried her down from the car.

“Shaun Lyons, let me go! I want to ask you just how Charity killed Shelley Langley? She couldn’t have done it. She’s being framed. Does the Lyons, Jewell, and Snow families have to be this ruthless and strike against a weak woman?”

Shaun remained silent and carried her to the building, putting her gently on the sofa.

“Shaun, did you hear what I just said? Why did Rodney blacklist Mireya from the industry? They’re all my friends. What did they do wrong?”

Cate could not help but stand up. “What about Shelley Langley? I told you that she’s Rosabella Cox. What else do you need to check?”

“Stop it.”

Shaun’s handsome face showed some coldness. “You’ve been tricked by Charity Neeson from the very beginning.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about…”

“See it for yourself.” Shaun stuffed two reports into her hands. “One of them is hair identification, whereas the other one is Shelley’s corpse identification. All these prove that she’s a member of the Langley family. The forensic doctor has examined her face and found that she has never undergone plastic surgery. She’s the real Shelley. Charity has been lying to you.”

Cate immediately flipped through the reports. The second she caught sight of the words written above, her head nearly exploded.

“This is impossible. Charity couldn’t have lied to me.” She shook her head in disbelief.

“I think you’ve been brainwashed by her. How long have you known her? And how long have you known me? Why would you rather believe in Charity than me? I’ve long since told you that the woman is not a good person.”

Her stubborn character began to make Shaun seethe with anger. “I listened to you and locked Shelley up, but Charity later instructed someone to set fire to the house and burn Shelley to death. The person who set the fire has been identified, and it was someone who acted on Charity’s instructions.”

“…”

Cate retreated and almost sank into the couch.

Shaun swiftly held her waist and warned her dully, “Watch out, Cate. You’re pregnant now…”

Before he could finish speaking, she pushed him away. “I’m sure Shelley is Rosabella. When I met her the first time, I found her very familiar…”

“Drop it. You’re just jealous of Shelley, that’s why you’re making all kinds of excuses to support your claim that she’s Rosabella.”

Shaun’s grim eyes revealed a sense of despair. “Why don’t you believe me? If you’d been sensible, you wouldn’t have been overcome by jealousy and tricked by Charity. Now that Shelley is dead, her parents have lost a daughter. Don’t you feel an ounce of guilt?”

“Is this how you see me?”

Cate fell into a state of utter dejection. “Why don’t you believe me, then? This matter isn’t as simple as it seems. Also, what has Mireya done?”

“She didn’t do anything. You asked her to help with the DNA paternity test, and her actions consequently offended Rodney,” Shaun replied indifferently, “You should feel lucky to have me defending you. Otherwise, Rodney wouldn’t have let you off the hook. He would’ve gone all out to ruin Hudson Corporation.”

A dazed look crossed Cate’s face.

Did this mean that Mireya was blacklisted just because she had offended Rodney?

In this case, Cate had to thank Shaun, right?

She looked up with her eyes settled on Shaun’s handsome, stony face.

When did these people like Shaun and Rodney begin to think that they could randomly ruin someone with their noble statuses?

“It’s my fault,” Cate suddenly mumbled with red eyes. “I shouldn’t have attended the press conference held by Shaunarah on your behalf.”

If the press conference had not happened, Shaun would not have been the wealthiest man in Australia again and in turn, targeted her friends.

“Cate, do you know what you’re saying?” Shaun was infuriated by her attitude. How dare she regret helping him for the sake of those people?!

Were Charity and Mireya comparable to him?

He was her husband.

“Under what circumstances will you let Charity and Mireya off the hook? They’re my friends.”

She bawled at him with tears uncontrollably welling in her eyes.

She had known Mireya since middle school.

Mireya had been by her side despite the hardships she experienced throughout these years.

“I won’t help.”

Shaun did not feel like arguing with Cate anymore. He turned around and left.
