What he got in return was not an improvement in Thomas’ behavior. Instead, Thomas only grew bolder with his actions.
“Submit the evidence to the police,” Shaun suddenly said.
Hadley was stunned for a moment. “But if Miss Neeson finds out—”
“If she comes to see me because of this matter, don’t let her in.” Shaun turned around in his leather chair and gazed out of the French window.
“Alright.”
Hadley nodded and eventually felt a sense of relief.
At last, Eldest Young Master Lyons’s conscience was slowly being awakened.
…
In Neeson Corporation’s office.
When Thomas was hugging a secretary and ready to do something to her, an employee suddenly dashed in anxiously. “Oh no, President Neeson. Assistant Walker was taken away just now.”
Thomas immediately rose to his feet, and the disheveled secretary in his arms subsequently fell to the ground.
At this point, he was not in the mood to bother about her. He quickly went out and dialed Sarah’s number. “Sister, I’m dead. Assistant Walker has been taken away;
“Why are you panicking? Did you remind Assistant Walker what I told you?”
“I did…”
“You’ll be fine, then. Regardless of how much you pay him, just make sure his lips are sealed. Also, you’d better behave yourself from now on or I won’t be able to save you.”
Sarah gritted her teeth as soon as she ended the call.
Needless to say, Shaun had found out about the matter. Never had she expected that he would be unbothered about her dignity.
…
In the hospital.
When Cate was feeding Suzie porridge in her arms, Mireya received a call.
After that, Mireya said, “There’s good news and bad news. The good news is that the police called and told me that there’s evidence showing that the burglars were hired by someone else. It was Thomas’ assistant who transferred money to their family members.”
Cate raised her head and said, “As for the bad news, is it that Thomas’ assistant has confessed to the crime?”
“Yeah.” Mireya sighed. “It means that Thomas still got away again, but guess who submitted the evidence to the police? It was Shaun! What did you do this morning?”
“I applied some medicine to Shaun’s eyes. I bet he strongly dislikes Thomas now.”
Deep down, Cate let out a sigh of relief.
In fact, she had taken a bet by going there this morning to kick up a fuss.
She bet that Shaun still had some feelings for her and could no longer tolerate Thomas’ behavior. She went to his place and reminded him that Thomas was directly responsible for the loss of their children three years ago.
Fortunately, she won the bet.
“You’re awesome.” Mireya raised her thumb.
“Godmother, was your mouth bitten by a mosquito? It’s swollen.”
Suzie, who was having porridge while nestled in Cate’s arms, tilted her head and looked at Mireya curiously.
Mireya immediately blushed with embarrassment. “A dog bit me.”
“The dog must be tall since it could actually bite your mouth,” Suzie said with a grin.
Mireya glared at Suzie sulkily with her hands on her hips. “Since you can make fun of me, it means you’re fine. But you were crying and asking for hugs and candy in your mom’s arms just now.”
Suzie pouted and snuggled into Cate’s arms again. “Mommy, it hurts again.”
“You were badly injured this time. Let me kiss you.” Only after Cate hugged and kissed her on the cheek did the little kid smile warmly.
After all, her head was severely injured. After having some porridge, Suzie felt drowsy.
In the next few days, Mireya was busy helping Cate clean her house while Cate took care of Suzie in the hospital. With a large backlog of work, she usually worked while taking care of Suzie.
Lucas stayed in the ward throughout these three days without stepping out of it. He felt that he was responsible for Suzie’s injuries.
When Liam visited them that night, he was upset at their condition.
“You can bring Lucas to the hotel and sleep there. Look at yourselves. You guys have slimmed down.”
“I’m fine.” Cate would be too worried to leave Suzie alone here.
“Even if you don’t think about yourself, you have to think about Lucas. He doesn’t eat well nor sleep well in the hospital.” Liam gently pinched Suzie’s cheeks. “Suzie, let me accompany you tonight, okay?”
“Sure, sure. I like you the most, Uncle Liam.” Suzie took pity on her mother as well. She immediately said, “Mommy, you can bring Brother home first. I’ll be heartbroken if you tire yourself out.”
“She’s my biological niece. I’ll definitely treat her well.” Liam waved his hand.
“…Alright.” Cate nodded as she understood her daughter’s intention. “I’ll get you some good food tomorrow.”
When Cate left with Lucas, she saw Liam entertaining Suzie who looked delighted.
She could not help but recall the time when Suzie was just born. Suzie had always cried and disliked anyone else carrying her except for Cate.
However, when Liam came back to visit Suzie and carried her, she would stop crying. She also enjoyed clinging to Liam in particular.
Perhaps this was the exemplification of the saying ‘blood is thicker than water’, or perhaps, it was because Liam bore a passing resemblance to Shaun. The child could actually feel it.
When Suzie was in Liam’s arms at night, she suddenly whispered to him, “Uncle Liam, is my scummy dad friendly like you when he deals with kids?”
Liam was stunned. At the sight of the cute child whose face was pale because of her injuries, he could not help but say, “If he sees such a cutie like you, he’ll surely be friendly to you. Are you keen on having… dad?”
“I don’t know.” All of a sudden, Suzie pouted as her eyes reddened. “When those people barged in that night, I was really scared. I was thinking… how nice it would’ve been if Daddy was around, but I didn’t tell Mommy about it. I was afraid she’d be upset.”
”You’re such a good kid, Suzie.” Liam let out a long sigh.
Shaun must have been hit by karma. If Liam had such an adorable kid, he would certainly pamper her like a princess. “If there’s anything, you can look for me. Just treat me as your dad.”
“Mm..“
Suzie slowly fell asleep as she leaned on Liam.
The next morning , a nurse reminded Liam to bring Suzie to the fourth floor for a CT brain scan by 8:00 a.m.
Liam asked Suzie to wear her mask properly as ordered by Cate when they walked there.
However, Suzie took off her mask once she stepped into the CT room.
Once the CT scan was done, someone tapped Liam on the back before he could put on the mask for Suzie.
When he turned around, Old Madam Lyons was staring at Suzie with surprise. “Liam, whose kid is this?’
Inwardly stupefied, Liam stammered, “G-Granny, why are you here?”
“I’m asking you whose kid this is.” Old Madam Lyons was so anxious that she directly pulled on his ear.
