“Never heard of it.” Shaun looked away, and his cold gaze rested on the coffee cup in front of him. “Any Tom, Dick, or Harry is allowed to sit on the Yule family’s seat of honor, huh?”

With that, Wesley’s elegant and handsome face turned pale. His bright eyes flashed with an undertone of grimness.

Cate felt as if she was slapped in the face. She was left in a state of embarrassment.

Melanie chuckled in spite of herself. “Exactly. Just look at who Elder Young Master Lyons is. Not everyone can sit with him.”

Old Madam Yule felt embarrassed. After all, she was the one who had asked him to sit over here.

“I’ll go to another table.” Wesley patted Cate on the back of her hand. Then, he turned around and headed to another table.

“Wait up. I’m coming with you. After all… I don’t qualify to sit with Elder Young Master Lyons either.” Cate went after Wesley. The two of them ultimately sat at another table.

Shaun bit his thin lip while sitting on the seat of honor. His handsome face was impassive while his masculine brows were frosty.

Everyone could tell that Elder Young Master Lyons was upset. Deep down, Old Master Yule was giving Cate a piece of his mind. After that, he feigned a smile and said, “I’m really sorry, Elder Young Master Lyons. That was very immature of Cate. Don’t sink to her level. She’s an illegitimate daughter who came from the countryside, so she’s quite uncultured.”

“Dad…” Joel’s face flushed with embarrassment. He could no longer tolerate it.

“Shut up.” Old Master Yule glared at Joel. Then, he signaled Melanie with his eyes.

Melanie promptly hugged Shaun’s arm and acted coquettishly. “Elder Young Master Lyons, I promise that you won’t see the two of them again when you visit the Yule family next time.”

“Yeah, yeah. Regardless of the occasion, they won’t be around wherever you are.” Old Master Yule went all out to flatter Shaun.

Shaun bit his thin lip lightly, which seemed to imply agreement. In fact, those who were familiar with him knew that he was even more annoyed deep down.

Cate, who was at another table, naturally heard the conversation among those people.

She was aware that everyone at the table was looking at her in a gloating manner with hardly any sympathy.

Her face turned pale bit by bit.

Wesley held her hand tightly beneath the table. It was the first time he felt so helpless. With the humiliation he suffered today, he swore that he had to become powerful to pay them back with interest.

After lunch.

When Cate came out of the restroom, she happened to come across Fergus who was walking out of the male restroom. The 40-year-old man was sturdily built and unshaven. He looked rough and dangerous.

As they unavoidably confronted each other, Fergus gave her an evil smile. “You have such great driving skills, little girl. You actually survived the meandering road of Sherman Mountain.”

Cate’s face darkened. How dare he act flagrantly?! “Having done so many bad things, you’ll face punishment sooner or later.”

“Haha. When Melanie becomes Madam Lyons… Do you believe that I’d be able to kill you then? No one is going to say anything about it.” Fergus lifted his hand and performed the action of slicing her neck. Then, he burst out laughing unscrupulously.

Cate’s eyes revealed shock. While trembling, she said, “Judging from your arrogant tone, you must have committed a lot of atrocities. My mom’s death… I’m sure it has to do with the Wicks family.”

Fergus was momentarily stunned. “Your mom died in a typhoon. What does it have to do with me?”

Cate observed his expression. He had always been arrogant prior to this moment, but his expression now seemed genuine.

“Sheryl was just unfortunate to have died young, but you’d better watch out,” Fergus warned her and then left in a swagger.

Cate stared at his back in a state of bewilderment.

If it was not the Wicks family who killed Sheryl, then who?

The banquet ended.

When Cate and Wesley were walking toward the car park, she received a message from Shaun. [I’m waiting for you outside the hotel. Come here.]

Cate lost her temper. How f*cking shameless Shaun was to look for her!

She deleted the message straight away. A moment later, however, Shaun sent her a video of her dancing in a bunny costume.

Cate gnashed her teeth. She turned around and said to Wesley, “I just remember that I need to meet my grandma to deal with something. You don’t have to send me home.”

“…Alright. Call me once you’re back.” After reminding her, Wesley watched her leave. His handsome face suddenly turned grim.

…

Ten minutes later, Cate found Shaun’s black sports car at the roadside. When she got into the car, she glanced around like a thief.

“Why? Are you worried that Wesley will spot us?”

Shaun held a cigarette between his fingers while his hand was placed on the steering wheel. Amid the smoke, his handsome brows expressed a sense of sarcasm.

At this moment, Cate hated him to the core. Her face looked pale as well. “Elder Young Master Lyons, don’t you remember entering the venue with your girlfriend and future mother-in-law in such a grand manner just now? Now everyone knows that you’re Melanie’s man. If someone spots me getting into your car, they might assume that I’m seducing you.”

“Are you jealous?” Shaun’s sharp eyes were fixed on her.

Cate scoffed and replied in an agitated tone, “I can’t be bothered about it. Why do you want to meet me? If there’s nothing much, I’m going to leave now.”

She acted as if she was forced to be here. Her face was filled with impatience.

Shaun had been very stressed these days. At that point, the annoyance inside him burst straight away. He gripped her wrist and scoffed, saying, “Now that Wesley has returned, you don’t feel like seeing me anymore, huh? Cate, if you continue to behave provocatively in front of me, I’ll kick you and Wesley out of Canberra.”

“Enough.” Cate was so fed up with him that she broke free from his grip. Her eyes reddened with anger. “You humiliated me so much during the banquet just now. Are you only going to stop it after I kill myself?”

“Will you really kill yourself? For a woman like you, are you willing to kill yourself?” Shaun pinched her cheek with his left hand. The words that came out of his thin lips were far crueler than before.

Cate’s gaze was filled with resentment. “I hate you, Shaun. You’re the most foolish man I’ve ever met.”

“I dare you to say it again.” Shaun really lost his cool now. He gripped her throat, his face revealing a frosty look.

“Am I wrong in saying that? You’re interested in a woman like Melanie. You’re blind, aren’t you?” Cate thundered, “The Wicks family has ill intentions, yet you keep defending them. You’re just aiding and abetting them. Whenever I recall having fallen in love with someone like you back then, I feel disgusted.”

“Hah! Were you in love with me?” Shaun acted as if he heard a joke. “Don’t distort the term ‘love’.”

Cate was shocked. She gave a bitter smile.

“Cate, don’t try to incite me. I know full well what’s on your mind.” Shaun’s eyes were fierce. “As long as I live, you won’t be able to defeat the Wicks family. Nicola and Joel won’t be able to get a divorce as well.”

Cate gave him a death stare. Due to intense fury, her chest felt heavy.

Shaun brought the cigarette to his lips and exhaled the smoke gently. The smoke obscured his brows that conveyed a complicated emotion. “Unless… I get another woman pregnant, I won’t consider dumping Melanie.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he undid the buttons of his shirt below his collarbones. Then, he gazed out of the window.

This was already the greatest hint and tolerance he could offer her.

It was also his final chance for her.

Cate was stunned. She found it a little… confusing.

What did he mean?

Was he implying that he wanted her to send him a woman?

At the thought of what he was planning to do with another woman, however, Cate was in so much pain that she could hardly breathe.

“I got it. May I leave now?”

After a desperate struggle, Cate eventually gave up dejectedly.
