“I’m not,” Shelley added cautiously. “I’m showing my respect to her.”

“Respect? You’re a carer, and you’re paid to perform your duties.” Rodney kept speaking up for Shelley.

Cate flew into a rage. “Young Master Snow, your words make me seem as if I put myself above everyone else in the house. I’ve never treated Shelley poorly at home, please.”

“Young Madam, Young Master Snow, you guys…”

Shelley hurriedly responded, but Cate interrupted her before she could finish speaking, “Since we pay her to do the job, isn’t it reasonable for her to be respectful? You pay your housekeepers and security guards to look after your house too, so does that mean they can treat you with disrespect?”

Rodney lost his temper as well. “Cate, are you done? Have I offended you? You keep hurling insults at me. Let me tell you that Shelley is different from other people…”

“Rodney.” Shaun interrupted his sentence with a deep voice. “Cate is my wife. Be polite to your sister-in-law.”

Cate frowned, wondering what Rodney was planning to say just now.

Different from other people?

How was Shelley different?

Rodney replied in a huff, “You should control her, then. If she has something to say, she should just say it instead of being so sarcastic.”

“I thought I was direct enough,” Cate argued nonchalantly.

“You…”

“Cate, grill some vegetables for me.” Shaun suddenly pulled Cate away. “Let’s go there.”

“…Alright.” After all, Cate did consider that Rodney was Shaun’s friend. If she kicked up a fuss about the matter, it would not benefit her either. As such, she nodded and headed to the barbecue grill on the other side.

Nevertheless, she was still in a terrible mood.

She did not say anything when she came, yet Rodney had a row with her somehow.

It suddenly occurred to Cate that Shelley’s manner just now was filled with hypocrisy, which reminded her of Rosabella.

Speaking of it, Rosabella had vanished into thin air in Melbourne.

“The chives are going to burn if you don’t flip them,” Shaun reminded her. “Are you still upset?”

“No. I was thinking about something else.”

“What were you thinking about? How could you be spaced out when you’re with me?” Shaun raised his long and attractive brows.

“I was wondering… Are carers these days very rich? She could afford the Fendi clothes from the latest spring line, which cost at least 100 thousand dollars.” Cate asked out of the blue.

Shaun furrowed his brows. “When we went fishing this afternoon, Shelley accidentally fell into the water. It was Rodney who bought the clothes for her.”

Dumbfounded, Cate’s red lips parted a little.

“Look at you…” Shaun chuckled helplessly. “You just don’t trust me, huh? You’re jealous because of Shelley. Look at how much you’ve frightened her.”

Cate was at a loss for words.

When had she frightened Shelley? Shelley looked afraid even though Cate did not say a word. Was it her fault?

“You think that I gave her a fright too?” Cate asked after a while of silence.

“Cate, forget about it.” Shaun held her hands again. “I know that you’re feeling insecure, but don’t you know my feelings for you?”

Having grasped his message, Cate repeated her question. “Do you think that I’ve frightened her as well?”

“Can we drop this subject?” Shaun opened a bottle of yogurt and handed it to her. “She’s just an insignificant person.”

“…”

Cate took the yogurt silently. “Is Rodney into Shelley?”

“Maybe. I’m not sure. I’m not into her anyway.” Shaun changed the subject. “I feel like eating an eggplant.”

“Alright.” Cate took an eggplant and placed it on the grill.

Shortly after, Chester came over with a plate of grilled shrimps. He said in a teasing manner, “Sister-in-law, let me get your approval first. Can Shaun eat the shrimps that another woman grilled?”

“No. He can only eat the shrimps that I grill,” Cate answered bluntly.

Chester was simmering with rage. “Can you stop it…”

“Excuse me, Miss. You can’t enter.”

A server’s voice rang out.

As soon as Cate turned her head around and looked in that direction, she immediately recognized that it was the cool lady whom she met at the roadside.

“Charity, who allowed you to come here?” Rodney suddenly rose to his feet. His handsome face was filled with disgust and resentment. “Get lost right now.”

“I’m here to look for Eldest Young Master Lyons.” Charity’s eyelashes twitched, but she continued to stare at Shaun. “Eldest Young Master Lyons, I’d like to have a word with you regarding Neeson Corporation…”

“Do you think Shaun would come to your assistance?” Rodney scoffed, “The Neeson family has done so many wicked things. Aren’t you aware of it? Call the security guards and drag her out.”

A group of security guards at the manor immediately surrounded Charity and clutched both sides of her shoulders.

“Hold on.” Cate got up all of a sudden. “She’s a lady, after all. Don’t be so rude to her.”

“You know nothing,” Rodney roared. “Cate, you just have to give me a hard time tonight, huh?”

“Rodney, I’m just being frank since your behavior is disgusting.” Cate’s face turned grim. “From the moment I walked in here, have you treated me nicely?”

Rodney could not be bothered about her. “Control her, Shaun.”

“Come over here, Cate.”

Surprisingly, Shaun spoke in a deep voice this time, “Don’t bother about this matter.”

This matter…?

Was she having a row with Rodney simply because of this matter?

Did Shaun not notice how fierce Rodney was to her?

Cate looked at the man’s figure, disappointed. “If she was my friend, I’d definitely let her in.”

Then, she noticed that the three men’s gazes on her.

She could sense that the gazes were unfriendly, but she did not mind. All she cared about was Shaun…

Shaun’s eyes were filled with indifference when he looked at Cate. It had been a while since his handsome face turned so grim. “Cate, you’d better not go too far. She’s not worthy of being your friend. Stay away from her.”

“What if I don’t?” She straightened her back and looked into his eyes.

Shaun pursed his lips in annoyance, but Rodney could no longer tolerate her behavior. “Cate, are you f*cking done? Stop fooling around. There’s a limit to it. Shaun might be able to bear with you if you dare be friends with this woman, but I definitely won’t.”

Cate remained silent as her eyes riveted on Shaun. Nevertheless, Shaun kept an impassive face without saying a word.

The atmosphere was tense.

At this moment, Charity suddenly smiled. “It’s fine, Miss Cox. If you insist on being friends with me, Eldest Young Master Lyons might divorce you.”

Cate looked at the stunning lady in astonishment. The lady addressed her as Madam Lyons when they first met, yet she called her Miss Cox now.

It baffled her why Shaun and the men hated Charity so much. She did not find Charity evil. Instead, she felt that Charity was open and honest.

Charity would rather barge in alone to ask Shaun for help than ask Cate for help, even though she recognized Cate just now.

“Stop it, Charity,” Shaun warned with a somber voice.

“Am I wrong? Since she’s your wife, you’re supposed to protect her at all times, especially when your buddies are around.”

Charity snorted sarcastically. “You just let your buddies yell at her this way. Have you ever thought of your wife’s feelings, Eldest Young Master Lyons?”

Cate’s dry throat felt slightly better.

Against all her expectations, the first person who considered her feelings was not Shaun but the stranger whom she had only met twice.
