“Fine, I thought you guys…”
“Can you not think so indecently?” Cate interrupted her seriously.
“I’ve always been like this,” Mireya was unashamed to admit. “I fell asleep in Rodney’s car last night and accidentally slept until morning.”
Cate was stunned. “He did not throw you out? He even let you sleep until the morning? Did you catch a cold?”
“Yeah. That’s what I thought too. I didn’t expect it either. He didn’t wake me up and even covered me with a blanket, ” Mireya said with mixed feelings.
“I couldn’t tell. He can cook, and he’s attentive. If it weren’t for his prejudice against us because of Sarah, Rodney could be regarded as an excellent man. Unfortunately, he loved the wrong person. He has a bad eye for people, ” Cate said regretfully. “You don’t have a crush on him, do you?”
“…Get lost.” Mireya immediately scolded.
“Why are you so worked up?” Cate clicked her tongue and reminded, “But I have to remind you. You can’t fall in love with Rodney. Patrick has already made you suffer enough. If you fall for Rodney, you’ll suffer like never before. That guy only has eyes for Sarah.”
“You don’t have to tell me that. I know better than you.”
Mireya immediately hung up the call.
Cate glanced at the phone, a little worried.
According to years of understanding each other like sisters, it was not good whenever Mireya started to praise a man.
When she was distracted, a man’s arm came up from behind and held her tightly.
She gasped as Shaun bit her ear. “Rodney is an excellent man?”
Cate suddenly trembled and turned around, wanting to glare at him. However, Shaun sealed her lips. “Better than me?”
“Shaun Lyons. Are you done yet?” Cate pinched his waist.
Shaun hissed in pain, but his eyes and tone were bitter. “You praised another man.”
Cate was speechless. “Did I say anything wrong? I used to think that Rodney was useless except for his looks, but it turns out he has strong points too.”
“He has scolded you before…” Shaun gritted his teeth and reminded her. What was more depressing than to wake up and hear the woman he liked praise another man?
“Have you scolded me any less?” Cate reminded him. “You better not say that others are bad, or I’ll bring up old scores again.”
Shaun silently buried her handsome face in her neck. “Babe, I’m hungry.”
Cate chuckled. “What a coincidence. I’m hungry, too. I didn’t eat breakfast, and now my body is all weak.”
“…I’ll cook for you.”
Shaun resigned himself and rubbed her little face. “
But it may not be as good as yours. Don’t shun it.”
“ If you really can’t, then just cook eggs. I’ll teach you.” Cate sighed helplessly.
Under Cate’s guidance, they had a simple breakfast. However, since she was too hungry, she felt that Shaun’s trash-like cooking could barely fill their stomachs.
After they had eaten, Hadley called to ask about the company, to which Shaun said, “Bring some of my clothes to Hackett Institute. I’ll be sleeping here in the future.”
Hadley replied, “Ahem. Okay.”
Cate, however, snatched the phone away. “No need.”
Then, she hung up the call.
“Cate Cox…” Shaun gritted his teeth.
“ I don’t want to live together for now. ” Cate got up. “If there’s a need to spend the night, I’ll go to your place. By the way, remember to hire a nanny. I don’t want to be your housekeeper.”
Shaun’s face darkened, and Cate grinned. “Did I say anything wrong? My place is small, and
there’s no space for a nanny to live. If you move here, I’ll have to handle all your meals and clothes.
I’m sorry, but my status is much more valuable now, so I definitely won’t do anything that’ll hurt m y delicate fingers. By the way, I have to enjoy whatever grand treatment Sarah used to enjoy.”
Shaun’s expression was grim, and just as he was about to open his mouth, Cate pressed her slender fingers on his lips. “Don’t talk to me about sacrificing for love. I can love you, but I want to love myself more.”
“Okay. We’ll do whatever you say.” Shaun did not know whether to laugh or cry. He had never intended to treat her badly. “ I’ll hire a nanny and a maid. I’ll call Aunty Yasmine over, so why don’t you come to my place and stay?”
“No. There should be some occasional distance between two people. We’ll get tired if we’re always together.”
Cate shook her head resolutely.
“Babe, I won’t get tired of you, ” Shaun coaxed softly.
Cate looked at him weirdly. “No, I’ m saying I’ll get tired of you.”
Shaun was at a loss for words.
What did she say? She would get tired of him?
Were her feelings not supposed to grow stronger the more she was with him?
Shaun took a deep breath. Having dealt a blow, his handsome face now looked extremely unpleasant, and he gritted his teeth. “Cate Cox, I’ll give you one chance to rephrase your words.”
“I didn’t say anything wrong… Ah…”
Before Cate could finish her sentence, she was turned around by Shaun and spanked on her butt twice.
Although it was not heavy, she was still furious. “ Shaun Lyons, how dare you hit me.”
Shaun was startled by the anger in her eyes. “I just gently patted…”
“I don’t care. You hit me. You men just don’t know how to cherish others. I just slept with you in the morning, and you bullied me in the afternoon. I’m ignoring you. Go away.” Cate’s eyes were red. She was originally just pretending, but after thinking about it, she felt aggrieved too.
The proud Shaun too became a little angry at being driven away like this, but when he saw her red eyes, he immediately panicked and picked her up carefully. “Babe, I was wrong. Don’t be angry. You can hit me back, okay?”
“I don’t want to hit your stinky *ss.” Cate looked away. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and her mouth pouted, making her look as cute as possible.
Shaun’s heart melted. He grabbed her hand and patted it on his face. “Is this okay?”
“No, it’s too light.” Cate lowered her eyes and snorted.
“Like this?” Shaun grabbed her hand again and heavily slapped himself twice.
If others saw this scene, their eyes would have fallen off. No one would expect that the high and mighty Shaun Lyons would coax a woman like this. Even Sarah would be shocked if she saw this.
“That’s more like it.” Cate looked at the red mark on his face and smiled.
When Shaun saw the smile on her face, his heart fell to the ground.
