After her words fell, the living room became strangely quiet.
Shaun subconsciously looked at Cate. She lowered her head and tucked a lock of hair behind her ears, exposing her beautiful and gentle profile.
“We can’t,” she said gently. “We were married before, but we divorced because we aren’t suited for each other. Your uncle is going to get married soon too. He’ll have a beloved wife, so you have to accept that.”
“Oh, I remember now. It was that aunty in the morning. ” Suzie suddenly gave Shaun a gloating look. “Uncle, you’re so miserable. Your future wife’s food isn’t good, but I can come to Aunty Cate anytime I want to eat delicious food.”
Shaun felt like he was paralyzed again, and the words made him… very uncomfortable.
He had not thought so before, but after today, he found that he preferred to spend time with Cate instead.
The two of them had gotten along when they brought Suzie to the supermarket. If they were a family of three, they could eat delicious meals cooked by Cate and occasionally go to the playground together. That sounded really good.
However, he understood that he had already decided to marry Sarah. There was no going back on many things.
“Alright, you should go back. I’ve already called Liam. He’ll come and pick Suzie up later.” Cate chased him out. “It wasn’t easy to finish the renovation in this house. I don’t want Thomas Neeson to get someone to trash this place again if the Neeson family finds out that you’re here.”
Shaun became upset. “No need, I’ll bring Suzie with me. You don’t know how to take care of children at all, so I don’t trust you to take care of our Lyons family’s little treasure.”
“I don’t know how to take care of children?” Cate thought she had heard a joke.
She was single-handedly raising two kids. He knew nothing.
“Did I say anything wrong?” Shaun raised his eyebrows.
“Fine, everything you say is right. Go.” Cate chased them away. “I have something to do later.”
“Aunty Cate, I’ll tell Daddy to bring me to you again tomorrow. ” Suzie waved. Although she did not want to leave her mommy’s side, if she insisted on staying longer, her scummy daddy would get suspicious.
Shaun carried Suzie downstairs and squatted down, saying seriously to her, “Suzie, you can’t keep telling your daddy to bring you to Aunty Cate.”
“Why not?” Suzie immediately became upset. “ Uncle, if I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have asked you to bring me to Aunty. I like her a lot, but you won’t let me meet her.”
“I’m not stopping you from seeing her.” Shaun pursed his thin lips and said in frustration, “If you want to see her, I’ll bring you to her, but not your father.”
“Why not?” Suzie tilted her head with a curious look in her eyes. “Uncle, do you like Aunty? Is… this jealousy?”
Shaun’s dark eyes suddenly shrank.
He liked Cate? Was it so obvious that even Suzie could tell?
“Don’t talk nonsense. ” His handsome face turned glum. “How would a child like you know what it means to like someone?”
“I know what it’s like. There used to be a handsome boy in my neighborhood, and whenever other girls played with him, I was very unhappy.” Suzie pouted and said, “That’s jealousy.” Shaun’s head began to hurt. He may need to have a talk with Liam, lest Suzie started dating in preschool.
“Alright, you don’t understand. I’ll send you there.” Shaun realized that his head would hurt even more if he continued to debate with her.
“Uncle, if you like Aunty, then you should man up and go after her.” Suzie clenched her fist and encouraged him.
“Suzie, I already have a fiance. I can’t be a two- timer.” Shaun explained to her earnestly and warned himself at the same time.
After sending off the father and daughter, Cate drove to the preschool to pick Lucas up. The little boy was dressed in an English-style school uniform which made him look very cute and handsome.
“Lucas, how was your first day at preschool? Was it fun?” she asked with concern.
“It’s not fun. They’re all too childish,” Lucas said contemptuously. “I think I can go to the upper class.”
“…Um, you can’t. You’re still young, so you have to stay in the lower class.”
Cate sighed. The older the two children grew, the more obvious their personalities. Lucas’s character was like Shaun, but his preference for food took after her’s. Meanwhile, Suzie’s character was smart and quirky like Cate, but her preference for food took after Shaun’s.
Joel was discharged from the hospital today. Hence, Cate took Lucas to Yule villa.
Although Cate had already told Joel in advance, he was still quite excited when he saw Lucas. “Lucas, why don’t you live with Grandpa in the future?”
“Okay, Grandpa. I can take care of you.” Lucas said lovingly.
Joel was very pleased, and Cate reminded, “ Dad, please keep Lucas’s identity a secret for the time being. It’s best not to let outsiders see him. ”
“But you can’t keep this up forever…” Joel pondered. “Are you afraid that Shaun will take the kids away from you? Or are you going to announce i t after Sarah has a child?”
“Dad, don’t you understand what kind of person Shaun is by now? Even if he has another child, he won’t allow the Lyons family’s children to be raised outside. In any case, don’t worry. I have my own plan.” Cate then changed the topic. “By the way, how has Yule Corporation been?”
Joel sighed at the mention of that. “Your grandparents are muddle-headed. They’ve allowed Rosabella to go back to work again. I’m suppressing Damien, but they’re at the manor trying their best t o please your grandparents. Unfortunately, my health isn’t good.” “The important thing is that Rosabella and Damien are part of the Yule family’s bloodline, so it’s only natural for Grandma and Grandpa to be soft- hearted toward them.” Cate comforted him.“ Dad, there’s no need to worry. I’ll help you deal with them in a few days.”
Now, the person Cate wanted to deal with most… was Sarah Neeson.
After leaving Lucas at the villa, Cate was finally relieved of her recent worries. With the two children around, they were like a time bomb that could explode at any moment.
At night, after Lucas fell asleep, Cate left the villa.
When she got into the car, she dialed Logan’s number. “How’s the situation with Lucifer?”
“That guy gambles, drinks, and goes bar hopping every day. He even brought back a woman for two consecutive nights.” Logan sighed. “Sarah drops by three times a week and stays for seven to eight hours each time. Tsk, I really wonder if Shaun Lyons has a disease. If not, he’ll get it sooner or later.”
“Shut up.” Cate rubbed her forehead. He always talked about that kind of thing when she called him, and it made her feel very uneasy. “How are the arrangements with the people we contacted him with?”
“It’s done, but I think he has spent most of the money he has. He will be asking Sarah for money again soon. I’m guessing Sarah won’t be able to hold back for long.”
“If I were Sarah, I’d definitely solve this ticking time bomb before I get married, ” Cate said with her brows raised.
“You mean…”
“We have to keep him alive until the wedding day. Otherwise, how will I send them my big gift?”
“Got it.” Logan clicked his tongue. This was why men should never offend women because some women really could not be messed with.
The next day.
In Lyons manor, Liam had finished breakfast and was just about to go to work when Suzie quickly hugged him. “Daddy, I want to go to the company with you. I miss Grandma.”
Liam picked her up in exasperation. “Don’t think I don’t know. You actually want to look for Shaun instead.”
“Uncle, I thought about it all night yesterday and figured out how to avenge my Mommy and deal with that vicious stepmother.” Suzie looked at him imploringly. “I have to go. By the way, you can’ t pick me up in the afternoon. I need to spend the night with that wicked stepmother, so you have to cooperate with me. I’ve already prepared the script. I’ll give it to you later.”
Looking at how adamant she was to get revenge, Liam was speechless. Since he could not refuse her, he brought her to the office.
She may not have stayed at Lyons Corporation for long yesterday, but everyone in the company knew that the Lyons family now had a little princess.
Although she was Liam’s daughter, President Lyons liked her very much, and she was also Vice Director Lyons’s granddaughter.
Once Suzie arrived at the office, she went to Shaun’s office unimpeded.
“Uncle, please don’t hate me,” Suzie said pitifully after entering. “Daddy said I’m annoying. He said that it’s my fault that he can’t go out to have fun at night anymore and has to be back at the manor in time every day. Uncle, am I a nuisance?”
“Of course not.”
Shaun did feel like he was disturbed at first.
However, his heart ached when he heard Suzie’s words, and he instantly became annoyed at Liam. How could he say something like that to a child?
“Uncle will call your daddy and teach him a lesson.” Shaun then picked up his phone.
Suzie quickly grabbed his hand. “No, I don’t want you two to fight because of me. I know that Daddy loves me, but… he doesn’t want to accompany me like Mommy did. Uncle, I’ll be good. You can continue working. I’ll sit here and draw.”
At that, she took out her drawing board and sat on the sofa, drawing obediently.
Shaun was very pleased and had the secretary bring some snacks over. After staying the entire day, Shaun received a call from Liam in the evening. “Brother, I’m going out drinking with my friends tonight. Can you look after Suzie for me tonight?”
