Scummy Shaun!
When Cate arrived home, Shaun had not returned yet. After taking some medicine, Cate was so drowsy that she fell asleep in spite of herself.
In the morning, she heard the door of the master room being opened while she was brushing her teeth in the bathroom. With that, she wiped her mouth and dashed out right away.
“What are you doing?”
Shaun pulled a long face. If she was planning to beg for his forgiveness, she could dream on.
“You should already know the matter of Fudge’s pregnancy, right?” Cate stared intently at his face after she finished speaking. Although there was only a slight change in his expression, she realized that his face had looked stiff for a moment.
“She’s pregnant?” Shaun looked away coldly.
“Stop pretending! You told your neighbor that Fudge is pregnant. When I went to the vet to ask about it, I was told that she’s going to give birth soon. She vomited only because she’s pregnant and not because of the food I prepared.”
Cate became even more pissed as she spoke. She then flew into a fit of rage. “Shaun, do you think it’s fun to trick me by treating me as a fool?”
Shaun’s expression turned somber. He was slightly embarrassed.
“Cate, you’d better get this clear. You were the one who wanted to move in before this, and I just fulfilled your wish by offering you the chance to please me.”
“So am I supposed to thank you for lying to me…” Cate gnashed her teeth.
“Weren’t you glad to be able to move into this place back then? Moreover, I even saved you twice later. If it hadn’t been for me, do you think you could still be here talking to me in one piece?”
Shaun frowned as this woman did not know her place. When she had no money and nowhere to stay back then, he had been kind enough to take her in.
What about her?
She actually treated him in such a nasty manner!
How dare she criticize him at this point? Who gave her the right to do so?
“…”
Upset, Cate was at a loss for words.
Indeed, he was her savior, but did it mean that he could act unscrupulously?
Fine. Cate was the one who had approached him with ill intentions in the first place.
She deserved being tricked.
With a pale look, she did not utter another word. Upon realizing that, Shaun sounded more confident.
“Cate, you should really reflect on your attitude. If it isn’t for Fudge who’s pregnant and needing someone’s care, I wouldn’t have tolerated a person like you being here.”
It was unclear how Cate left later.
She felt dizzy and so mad that she wanted to pick a fight with him.
Ever since she got together with Shaun, she suspected that she had turned into a Ninja Turtle.
Was it too late for her to mend her ways?
If she had known earlier how arduous the journey would be, she surely would not have approached Shaun!
…
No matter how miserable she felt, she could not put off her work.
At 8:30 a.m., Cate drove to Jadeite Villa.
When she drove past the entrance of the villa where Shaun entered last time, she spotted Rosabella and James heading toward it.
That was Shaun’s villa! Was Shaun letting Rosabella renovate the villa?
Cate absent-mindedly drove to the property management company.
While dealing with the property management process, she asked, “I saw renovation workers entering Block B2. Are they going to renovate the place?”
“Yeah. The renovation deposit has been paid as well,” a representative from the property management company said.
“Which renovation company is that?”
“Summit.”
At that instant, Cate seemed to hear the collapse of the one and only support that held Shaun and herself together.
Although Nathan had mentioned it previously, it had just been his remark. What he said would not count unless Shaun approved it.
Hah. Little did Cate expect that Shaun would really pass the project to Rosabella.
Shaun was under no illusions that Rosabella had stolen her design and that the Cox family had nearly taken her life.
Cate was also aware that she did not hold a place in Shaun’s heart. He was even disgusted by her at this point.
Having said that, they had been living together for quite a while. She was the one who had been helping him do the laundry, cook, clean the house, and take care of the cat. Did he actually wipe all these things from his mind?
What was more, unprincipled people like Jeffery and Rosabella did not deserve to be tolerated nor supported.
Now that Shaun was supporting them, it meant that he was an unprincipled scumbag.
When Cate walked out of the property management company, her eyes were red and she felt dizzy.
The cold medicine that she took yesterday did not seem to take effect. Now that she was triggered, she could barely keep her footing.
Nevertheless, she must not collapse since no one would sympathize with her.
Cate insisted on walking back to Wesley’s villa to supervise the renovation progress.
She stayed on-site the entire day. Wesley dropped by in the afternoon to hand out gifts as a token of appreciation for the staff’s effort.
She was overwhelmed by the thick envelope placed in her hands. “President Sanderson, this gift is probably more than I deserve.”
“It’s simply a small token of appreciation.” He studied her face briefly. “You look unwell. Are you ill?”
“Probably just a common cold.”
“Take the day off and get some rest. I believe the renovation will progress on schedule. I’m not a mean boss.” His voice was soft and gentle.
She nodded. An outsider was more thoughtful than Shaun who lived together with her.
Shaun had not enquired how she was feeling at all.
He probably hated her to the core now, so why would he be bothered?
A woman could not possibly live happily with an inconsiderate man, right?
“Thanks, President Sanderson.”
She nodded again and began to take her leave.
She had only taken a couple of steps before she felt dizzy in the head. Fortunately, Wesley reacted quickly and stepped forward to catch her from falling.
The heat transmitted from her skin surprised him. “You’re running a high fever. Let me send you to the hospital.”
“It’s fine…”
“Young lady, stop trying to be tough. You’re working for me now and I’ll need to take responsibility if anything bad happens,” he replied as he carried her into the car.
Failing to fight the weakness that spread across her body, Cate drifted into unconsciousness not long after entering the car.
She vaguely felt someone holding her close during the journey.
