Filed to story: Revenge Marriage Sweet Love Novel Read Free Online

Wearing a plaid khaki vest suit with a white shirt and a printed tie, his aura dominated the area with his handsome silhouette.

The noble aura that emanated from his body simply overwhelmed Wesley’s refined and elegant aura, making him seem dim and dull in comparison.

She seemed to be able to understand how Mireya had mistaken one for the other now.

Indeed, when these two people were together, most would focus on Shaun at a glance.

His good looks were undeniable, but his temper… Forget it, it was off-putting.

However, why was he here? Cate instantly had the urge to pick up her bag and flee.

“Mr. Lyons, Young Master Harrison.” Wesley stood up in surprise and shook hands with the two.

However, when he reached out to shake Shaun’s hand, Shaun simply looked at him lazily with his long lashes.

A few seconds passed and Wesley started to feel embarrassed. Just as he thought Shaun would not shake his hand, the man extended his hand and shook it. “Sorry, I’m not in a good mood today.”

Wesley had dealt with Shaun Lyons several times before, especially when he planned to ask Shaun to take on a commercial lawsuit for him. The talks initially went well, but later the law firm said that he was not available.

To be honest, he was feeling a little discontented with Shaun Lyons.

However, Shaun was a legendary figure in the lawyer world. Since he had a good reputation, Wesley had to show him some respect. Perhaps there might even be opportunities for them to work together in the future.

Thus, he smiled and asked, “Who has offended Mr. Lyons?”

Shaun’s slender fingers pulled out a rose from the bouquet on the table and he fiddled with it. “Do all women like these tacky things?”

Cate suddenly had a very bad feeling about this.

Wesley’s elegant face froze. After all, he had just given those flowers to Cate, but they were now called ‘tacky’ by someone else. Shaun was not taking into consideration his dignity at all.

“It might be tacky to you, Mr. Lyons, but to a woman, flowers are always their favorite.”

“No wonder.” Shaun’s eyes sharpened as his long eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyelids. “Maybe it’s because I don’t even know this much that my wife is seeing a man outside behind my back.”

“Pfft.” Cate, who was sipping on juice nervously, spat out her drink.

Wesley hurriedly handed her a paper towel and she accepted it with a lowered head. “Thank you.”

Shaun put on a fake smile and tilted his head at her. “Miss, what are you getting all worked up for?”

Cate silently gritted her teeth and pushed down the anger in her belly. She smiled cheerfully.

“Sir, I think you’re too extreme. Did you see your wise kissing another man with your own eyes, or did you see her climbing into another man’s bed? If you didn’t, then it’s better to watch your words. Don’t just pin the title of cuckold on your head by yourself. You’ll just embarrass yourself.”

At that moment, Shaun’s exquisite features were extremely dark despite the bright lights.

The atmosphere between Cate and him immediately became tense.

Wesley coughed softly and said quickly, “Mr. Lyons, Cate isn’t very sensible, so don’t hold it against her. I’ll apologize on her behalf.”

Cate?

How intimate they were.

His woman was actually making another man apologize to him on her behalf.

Tsk, it was as if he were dead.

Shaun barked out a laugh, and only Chase, who knew him best, knew how much anger was mixed in that little laugh. It was the precursor of a storm.

Chase hurriedly dragged an empty chair over and said with a light-hearted tone, “Rin, what’s your relationship with President Sanderson? Are you two…”

After a pause, he quickly shot a look at Cate, telling her to think of a way to explain herself.

Cate did not want to be accused of cheating while in a marriage and explained, “Our company is working on a project that involves President Sanderson’ villa, but there have been some problems recently so we’re currently discussing them.”

Shaun sneered in his heart. Was there a need to laugh and joke together when discussing business? Was there a need to come to a western restaurant to discuss business?

“Young Master Harrison, do you know Cate?” Wesley was a little surprised.

“Of course. Melbourne is not that big and I’ve met her several times at business parties or dinners.” Chase grinned and said, “It’s fate that we could meet today. Why don’t we eat together?”

Wesley. “…”

Could he say no? It had not been easy for him to get a reservation here.

Cate. “…”

Could she refuse? It was too hard to face Shaun’s demonic face.

“You two… don’t seem too welcoming of that idea. Are we disturbing you?” Shaun looked at them, his voice deep and magnetic.

“No, please join us.” Wesley then asked the waiter to bring the menu over.

With four people at the table, the space grew cramped with the bouquet of roses on the table.

Cate reached out to put the roses by her side, but Shaun was quicker than her and handed the bouquet to the waiter.

“Take this away. I’m allergic to pollen.”

Cate wondered if she had heard him wrongly. She had never seen him getting allergic reactions when she bought flowers to decorate the vases at home. He must be doing this on purpose.

“I didn’t know you’re allergic to pollen, Mr. Lyons.” Wesley was barely able to force a laugh.

“Yes, I’m especially allergic to pink flowers.” Shaun calmly opened the menu and ordered leisurely.

After ordering, Wesley changed the topic. “Actually, I’ve been quite curious as to why Mr. Lyons turned down my case last time.”

Chase was afraid that Shaun would speak too harshly and completely offend Wesley, so he quickly said, “He suddenly became too busy.”

Cate silently ate her cake while listening to them with her head lowered. She never knew what Shaun’s profession was, but now she did. It turned out he was a lawyer, and it seemed he was quite a good one.

She really wanted to take an iron plate and hit herself to death with it.

She had seen on the internet that lawyers were one of the top ten professions that one should never marry.

If you married a lawyer, you would not even be able to leave with your underwear as a settlement during the divorce. Even if you reasoned with a lawyer, he would just drill you with legal loopholes.

It was no wonder he dared to say that as long as he did not agree to it, she would not be able to divorce him even in 30 years.

Damn it, what kind of devil had she provoked?!

Wait, what was that devil doing? He was actually rubbing her leg with his foot under the table.

Cate’s face flushed, and she kicked him back.

‘Behave yourself! Don’t act like a hoodlum!’

However, in the next second, Shaun stared at her expressionlessly. “Ms. Cox, why did you kick me?”

The rest of the people at the table all set their eyes on her face.

Chase blinked playfully. “Rin, although our Mr. Lyons is handsome and charming, don’t forget that you came here on a date with President Sanderson.”

Cate glared at him angrily. “The table is small, so I accidentally bumped into him. You’re the ones who insisted on squeezing at our table.”

“So you’re blaming us for interrupting your date?” Shaun said in a low voice.

“No, I just don’t like you guys joking around like that. After all… Mr. Lyons isn’t my type.” Cate shrugged with a helpless look.

The smile on Wesley’s face brightened up completely. “Young Master Harrison was just joking. I know you didn’t do it on purpose.”

“Well, I’m going to the ladies.” Cate really did not want to stay. She got up and left her seat.

Before long, Shaun also stood up. “I’m going to make a call.”

In the washroom, Cate deliberately dawdled inside for a while before coming out.

She saw a tall figure standing by the door and smoking when she came out. Her head immediately felt like exploding.
