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

At Lyons Corporation’s office.

Shaun saw the negative news on his computer. His handsome face darkened. “Have you found out who was the one who circulated the news?”

“It’s the media company secretly sponsored by the Campos family,” Hadley told the truth.

“The Campos family?”

Shaun narrowed his eyes. He emanated a cold and dangerous aura at this moment. “Very well, the Campos family is openly going against me now.”

Hadley’s lips moved slightly. He mustered his courage and said, “Eldest Young Master Lyons, why don’t you clarify to the public that you’re just good friends with Ms. Neeson? You’re married now, so it’s not good for Lyons Corporation’s reputation if this spreads out.”

When Shaun was remaining silent, Thomas gave him a call. “Eldest Young Master Lyons, something has happened. Sarah got hurt after being hit by someone when she went out this morning.”

Half an hour later, Shaun arrived at the hospital. Thomas had been waiting for a long time at the door. “Eldest Young Master Lyons, you’re finally here. Sarah is still lying in bed. The doctor said she has a concussion from being hit.”

Shaun frowned. He pushed the ward’s door open with a dark expression. Sarah’s forehead was wrapped with bandages. Her fair, small face was pale and weak.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Shaun touched the wound on her forehead.

Sarah hissed in pain and forced out a smile. “I’m fine, it’s just a scratch.”

Thomas, who was at the side, immediately said, “Oh dear, how is that just a scratch? There was so much blood earlier. Eldest Young Master Lyons, I have to say that you’re being really unfair to Sarah. I don’t know which hoodlum exposed the photos of you celebrating her birthday, but now, everyone on the internet is scolding my sister and calling her a third party. They’re even calling her a b*tch. In any case, they’re using all kinds of nasty words to talk about her. Some have even found her house address. It’s too dangerous for her.”

Shaun pondered for a moment and said, “In that case, move to a house under my name for now.”

“Yes.” Thomas’ eyes brightened. “I heard that you bought a villa by the sea a few years ago. Sarah loves living by the sea. Let’s go there.”

Shaun froze.

He did have a seaside villa, but… he used to live there with Cate.

He was subconsciously reluctant.

“Brother…” Sarah glared at Thomas but quickly turned to Shaun. With a sweet look, she said, “Did you buy a seaside villa because you remembered me saying I liked living by the sea?”

Faced with the woman’s sparkling eyes, Shaun looked away and hummed.

“Then… Then I’ll move there,” Sarah bit her pale lip and said with a sweet smile.

Shaun was helpless and could only nod.

Thomas added, “But you can’t just go on like this. You can’t hide in Eldest Young Master Lyons’s villa forever. You can’t go to work now as you get pointed at no matter where you go. You’ll have to wear the label of a mistress your entire life. This is too unfair to Sarah. The two of you clearly fell in love first. Why should she bear all the blame?”

“Brother, stop it. I’m already satisfied that I’ve reunited with Shaun.” Sarah’s eyes reddened. “I’m willing to hide in the shadows forever if it’s for him.”

Shaun stroked her head and felt a surge of guilt in his heart. “Don’t worry, I won’t let you hide in the shadows forever.”

A hint of darkness flashed in his eyes.

After leaving the hospital, he got into the car. “Go to Lyons Manor.”

…

One hour later.

He walked into the manor.

The sun was shining brightly, and Cate was sitting on a wooden chair under the grape trellis. She was reading. The warm sun shone on her milky white skin, making the scene look still and quiet like a painting.

For a few seconds, a strange feeling flashed in Shaun’s heart, but it was gone before he could catch it.

When he came back to his senses, he walked over with large strides.

Cate raised her head upon hearing his footsteps. The man was wearing a pair of dark gray casual slacks with a blue business shirt on top. His sleeves were rolled up. His outstanding temperament could make any woman’s heart flutter, but it was a pity that his handsome eyes were currently filled with coldness and zero affection.

The coldness in his eyes was harsher than when they first met.

She told herself that she had to get used to the man’s coldness.

However, every time she faced it, her heart still ached.

The man she loved was treating her worse than a stranger now.

“Do you need something?” she asked, lowering her eyes as if to hide the sadness in them.

“You’re my wife. Do I need a reason to find you?” Shaun blurted out and was stunned at how he could say such words.

“So you still know that I’m your wife, huh? I thought you forgot about it long ago,” Cate said mockingly.

Shaun became annoyed. “Don’t nag at me. I need you to do something. Issue a statement to the public saying that you and I divorced last month. As for our marriage, it was a contract marriage from the very start and we only took what we needed from each other.”

Cate looked up at him in shock. Her beautiful black eyes showed her disbelief.

Shaun was uncomfortable by her gaze and could not stop himself from lighting up a cigarette. After taking a breath, he hardened his heart. “Did you hear me? I only married you because I was annoyed that the Lyons family was rushing me to get married. You only married me because you mistook me for Nathan Lowe’s uncle.”

Cate could not bear it anymore. “Yes, we only got married in the beginning because of a contract, but afterward, both of us willingly stayed in the relationship. I didn’t force you.”

“Shut up.” Shaun found her words piercing. “It’s because you seduced me again and again. Did you think I’d even take a second look at you otherwise?”

Although her heart was already riddled with holes, Cate’s eyes still reddened in disappointment. “Shaun Lyons, you’re horrible. In order to stop Sarah from being scolded by others, you won’t hesitate to make me lie and announce that we’re already divorced. The outside world will think that I came to you because of the Lyons family’s money. Yes, Sarah’s name will be cleared, but what about mine? I’ll be cursed to my grave. Have you ever considered my feelings?”

“Why should I consider your feelings? I don’t like you.”

Shaun frowned indifferently, his words growing colder and colder.

Cate finally let out a laugh, all her tears welling up.

She did not know if it was because Sarah’s hypnosis was too powerful or if Shaun had never forgotten about Sarah in the first place.

Shaun found her laugh uncomfortable. “Did you hear what I said?”

“It’s one thing that you cheated on your wife, but now, you also want me to compromise to protect Sarah’s and your reputations? Dream on. The people on the internet aren’t wrong. Sarah is the third party.”

Cate could not hold back and yelled at him.

“Shut up!”

Shaun slapped her mercilessly across the face.

She froze and covered her face, large tears rolling down her cheeks.

“Cate Cox, I’m warning you, don’t let me hear you insult Sarah again.” Shaun narrowed his eyes and warned word by word. “I advise you to do as I say, or I’ll tell Doctor Angelo to stop treating Joel Yule’s illness.”

“Shaun, you b*stard.” Cate was forced to the edge and cried in despair.

“I mean it.” For some reason, Shaun did not want to see her crying appearance and turned to leave.

“Shaun Lyons, I can handle all these matters myself,” Cate suddenly said, “As long as you divorce me, I’ll take the children away and won’t have anything to do with you in the future.”

“Dream on. The children are mine. Cate Cox, you’ll never be qualified to bargain with me. When you’re done thinking about it, I’ll let Doctor Angelo treat your father.”

Shaun finished and walked away without looking back.

Cate looked at his ruthless figure that seemed to be shrouded in darkness.

In less than 20 minutes, she received a phone call from Doctor Angelo saying he could not treat Joel anymore.

If no one treated Joel, Nicola Wicks and her daughter would not care about him either. The Yule family was led by Damien Yule now. Joel would die in no time.

She had no choice and could only post the announcement on Facebook. [I sincerely wish that Shaun Lyons can find his love. Now that things have come to this point, I have to tell everyone the truth. Shaun Lyons and I divorced last month. We only married because Shaun was forced to by his family, and we each took what we needed in our marriage. There were no feelings involved. Ms. Neeson is Shaun’s childhood sweetheart who was separated from him because of various misunderstandings. She’s not a mistress. I sincerely wish the two of them the best.]

After the post was uploaded…

Many netizens scolded her on her profile.

[What do you mean you each took what you both needed? Shaun Lyons must have given you a lot of money then!]

[What the f*ck, I actually believed in your relationship before. I feel like a fool now.]

[How much money did you receive?]
