“Well, Young Master Snow, this means that you’re kidnapping me by force.” Cate approached
him suddenly. “May I know whether you’re a police officer?”
“I…”
“You’re not. Your uncle is going to run for prime minister next year. Do you think you can act unscrupulously and catch anyone at random? Now, you’re trying to lay your hands on the chairwoman o f a listed company. What’s more, I’m the daughter of Joel Yule, one of the top ten most brilliant figures in Australia.”
Cate’s eyes flashed with fierceness. “Young Master Snow, your uncle has quite a number of competitors now. Everyone in the Snow family has been behaving cautiously for the sake of the election next year, yet you’re only dragging your uncle down. Are you sure you want to spoil your family’s reputation and become the one to blame?”
“You…” Rodney’s veins bulged in a fit of fury. He felt an overwhelming urge to strangle her.
Nevertheless, what she said was true. He knew full well how important his uncle’s election next year was.
Rodney had once destroyed the Snow family’s reputation previously, but that had to do with his private life. If he made a move against Cate this time, it would most probably cause everyone to boycott the Snow family for the election next year.
“If you plan to arrest me, you’d better have evidence first, ” Cate said nonchalantly. With that, she turned around to leave.
“Hold on. You’re leaving, but have you asked me?” Shaun approached her with a stony expression. “ Did I say you can leave?”
Rodney’s eyes lit up. “Shaun, seize her and send her to Liona to torture her.”
“You’re planning to seize me, huh?”
Cate looked into Shaun’s eyes, her gaze revealing a rare look of grimness.
His heart tightened in an instant. Suddenly, he had no idea what to say.
He knew if he did it, the conflict between them would intensify. However, now that she had done
such a wicked thing, could he actually pretend that nothing had happened?
“Shaun, why are you hesitating?” Rodney thundered, “Have you forgotten that Sarah nearly lost her life? Have you forgotten the look of despair on her face when she wanted to kill herself?”
Cate was dazed. Sarah actually tried to kill herself. Indeed, she had acted ruthlessly this time.
“You, come to Liona with me.” Shaun’s eyes showed a sense of astonishment. Then, he extended his hand to grab Cate.
Before he could approach the woman in front of her, she took out a gun and jabbed him with it.
He froze to the spot with a look of incredulity in his eyes. It was unclear whether he was shocked because she had a gun or because she was jabbing him with it.
“ I won’t come with you. If you dare take me away forcefully, I’ll have no choice but to shoot you.”
Cate’s gaze was unusually calm. He felt as if she would really shoot him if he insisted on taking her away.
Grief overcame Shaun deep down. He said with a hoarse voice, “How dare you have the thought of shooting me?”
“Should I be awaiting my fate by letting you seize m e instead?” Cate snorted. “I didn’t do it, so why should I let myself be tortured in Liona?
Shaun, I’m doing this out of self-defense. You might think that I’m hurting you by pointing the gun at you, but what about you? You’re trying to seize me, so aren’t you hurting me as well? Since you can bring yourself to hurt me without a second thought, why can’t I?”
She raised the gun a little and aimed at his leg. “You can try and make a move. Just give it a try.”
“If you dare shoot me, you’ll be in jail,” Shaun warned severely.
“ If you dare move, you’ll be crippled, ” Cate gave him a reminder without compromising.
Shaun clenched his fists tightly. His eyes were filled with fury, guilt, sorrow, and despair.
However, Cate did not seem to notice it. She walked backward until she entered the elevator.
Only after the elevator went up did her tense heart begin to relax.
Nobody knew that she had gone through too many things. Ever since she returned, she had placed a gun in her car just in case. After all, who knew
whether Sarah and Shaun would want to kill her the next minute?
Even so, she had not planned on firing just now. It was because she would go to jail if she did.
Having said that, Cate could not have him send her to Liona. It filled her with dread. Three years ago, Shaun sent her to a mental hospital and nearly made her go insane. Three years later, who knew what consequences she would suffer in his clutches?
Also, who would save Logan if she was taken away? Luckily, she guessed it right. Shaun did not go after her anymore.
At the car park.
After the elevator went up, Shaun violently punched the glass window of his car.
Blood flowed from his fist to the ground, yet he did not feel the slightest pain. His eyes reddened, and he was overwhelmed with grief.
Cate actually… pointed a gun at him.
What could be more painful than knowing that his beloved woman had the thought of shooting him?
Ha!
Was she even in love with him? How could she be so brutal?
“ Shaun, aren’t you already clear about Cate’s character by now? She has long since changed. She has changed so much that we can’t see through her now. Who would carry a gun with them?”
Rodney said in exasperation, “She’s been hiding a lot of things from you. She’s probably not sincere being in this relationship with you. She doesn’t even love you. She got back together with you simply because she wanted to take revenge on Sarah. Don’t you see it?”
“Shut up!” Shaun glowered at him frostily. “I’m just telling the truth. Wake up and look at what’s in front of you. See who’s the one truly in love with you.” As soon as Rodney finished his sentence, he opened the door of the car in a huff. “ I’m not done with this matter yet. Even though she could escape today, I won’t let her off the hook tomorrow. I’m going to Liona now to interrogate that wretch.”
Shortly after they left, Mireya came over in a rush. “ Did Shaun really seize Logan?”
“Mm.” Cate had just come out of the bathroom and changed into a set of clean clothes.
As she had not slept for a night, her pretty face was filled with weariness. “According to what they said, Logan was caught treating Sarah violently at the scene. After Sarah was rescued, she felt so humiliated that she banged her head on the wall to kill herself.”
“Clearly, it’s all Sarah’s doing. How could Logan possibly be interested in a woman like Sarah? Pah!
He’d be afraid of contracting a disease! ” Mireya insulted in a fit of fury.
Cate was having a headache and rubbed her forehead. “This is just too strange. But I can’t
afford to leave Logan in Liona as Shaun will take his life.”
“What are your plans?” Mireya asked.
“…I haven’t thought about it.” Cate’s eyes flashed with confusion. “I need to meet Logan to clarify the matter so that I can prove my innocence.”
“Forget about it. The two b*stards, Rodney and Shaun, have been brainwashed by Sarah. They have complete trust in her. The moment Sarah cries and threatens them, they’ll still believe her even if there’s evidence against her.
Mireya let out a sigh. “I don’t understand why those men trust Sarah so much even though she’s so evil.”
“Exactly.” Cate clenched her fists. “Since I can’t teach Shaun a lesson, I’ll do it to another person.”
