Nothing apart from the food she prepared piqued his appetite anymore. Perhaps she had drugged the food he had been eating all this while.
After breakfast the following morning.
Shaun had just put on the cuff links, ready to head out when he noticed Cate had changed into a beige windbreaker.
Beneath it was a dark pink shirt and a checkered maxi dress with tights. She looked effortlessly like a capable businesswoman, yet the outfit also highlighted her curves.
Moreover, she had put on a little bit of makeup. Pearl earrings hung below her earlobes. He found it rather difficult to peel his eyes away from the beautiful woman.
However, in the next second, he realized she was heading out. She had not dressed up for him.
“You’re going out dating again?” His voice was low, evidently revealing his displeasure.
“No, I’m going to work. I found a new job yesterday. I’ll be home to prepare dinner and also walk Fudge after that.” He found no words to argue with that. Despite that, he was not bothered about her job.
“Giving out leaflets again?”
“No way. I’m the head designer this time.” She scoffed before grabbing her purse and leaving the door.
Shaun trailed behind her and entered the elevator together. His throat felt dry as he stole another glance at the young woman’s curvy figure. “Want a lift?”
“No, thanks.” she rejected without hesitation. “I’ll drive. I don’t want to take the subway halfway.”
He was speechless.
Was she complaining that he only sent her to the subway station?
He had not given any other woman a lift before. This ungrateful thing!
8.30 a.m.
Cate walked into her new workplace right on time.
It was a surprise to find out that the other employees were all young and passionate. Besides, they were all distinctive graduates who had studied abroad.
Joseph introduced her to the employees before leading her into the office. He handed over a plane blueprint.
‘This is President Sanderson’ 3,000 square meters villa in Green Mountain. This man used to be stationed overseas for his business franchises and that’s how I met him. We’ve known each other for quite some time now.
“He plans to settle down back home here in Melbourne. Work hard on this project. There’s no cost limit on the renovation, but everything must be perfect. He has a holiday resort project waiting to launch by the end of the year. I hope to build a long-term partnership with him.”
She nodded seriously.
It seemed that President Sanderson had a pretty similar background to Shaun. However, the latter who was also a president was staying in a small house about 100 square meters big.
A smile spread across Joseph’s face. “Actually, President Sanderson’ nephew’s girlfriend is from a building and interior design background. He doesn’t really like their style, but it’s difficult to be honest with your relatives. He’s renovating his villa in secret without telling anyone else, thus you have to keep this to yourself. Don’t make things difficult for President Sanderson.”
Cate was astonished by what she heard.
Not only was President Sanderson’ recent life experiences similar to Shaun’s, the coincidence even extended to their nephew’s girlfriends.
With a light heart, Cate left the office and started driving to Green Mountain.
This was the most expensive luxury villa neighborhood in Melbourne. Only the really rich people could afford the property over here.
Her car was stopped by the security guard at the neighborhood entrance, thus she had to walk to the house.
A man who looked about 30 years old was standing by the swimming pool. The tall man had long and gentle eyebrows. The tailor-made black business suit looked especially great on him.
Startled, she asked tentatively, “Mr. Sanderson?”
“Yes. Are you the designer from Joseph’s company? You’re way younger than I expected.” A look of genuine surprise flashed across Wesley’s eyes.
This woman in front of him right now was probably the most beautiful woman he had seen since returning to Melbourne. Others might have thought Joseph had sent this woman over to seduce him.
However, the unswerving determination in her eyes revealed that she was a serious professional.
“I was President Talton’s junior in university. Mr. Sanderson, you’re welcome to have me replaced if you’re not satisfied after seeing my designs. I’ll not take it personally.”
Cate’s reply was calm yet confident. “Besides, I don’t think age has anything to do with capability. You’re pretty young yourself, Mr. Sanderson.”
Wesley smiled. “I can’t argue with that.”
She handed him her name card.
He glanced at it. “Cate Cox. The name rings a bell.”
She felt her heart skip a beat. For fear that he might have heard about the rumors, she replied immediately, “It’s quite a common name. If you don’t mind, Mr. Sanderson, you can tell me your ideas as we tour around the villa.”
Then, he led the way and showed her around the massive villa.
Besides, he mentioned his wish of having a gym, theater, basketball court, and indoor swimming pool.
Cate had a general idea of his likes and desires. In less than half an hour, she delivered a beautiful sketch into his hands.
Wesley looked at the sketch, unable to find something to pick fault at.
This design plan was exactly what he had envisioned.
“Miss Cox, you’re as good as the top designers I’ve seen from abroad. Not bad. The concept of this indoor swimming pool is really innovative.”
‘It ll look even better after rendering.”
“Sure, you have a week’s time. I’d like to start the renovation as soon as possible.” He gave her the key card. “You’re welcome to look for me in my office when required. This is my name card.”
President of Transmit Corporation. It seemed like another new rich man had entered the Melbourne circle.
After leaving the villa, she planned to check out the design of other villas in the neighborhood.
In a matter of minutes, she saw a white Lexus driving into one of the massive villas. Was that not Shaun’s car? Had he purchased a villa here too?
“Why are you here?”
A familiar voice rang behind her out of the blue.
She looked over her shoulder to see Nathan getting out of his Lamborghini.
Normally, she would turn around and leave, but she was slightly shocked to bump into him here.
“I should be the one asking. Are you and Rosabella planning to purchase a villa here?”
“No, not yet anyway. I’m here to check out my uncle’s villa. His place needs renovating and I plan to convince him to hand the project over to Rosabella.”
Nathan examined her expression as he said that.
Cate claimed she had worked hard to build her career. Nathan planned to boast that he could pamper his other half.
As expected, he smiled smugly as he noticed the colors changing on her face. “What? Regretting your choices now? If you were still like before, perhaps I could provide you some resources too.”
Exasperated by his comment, she almost spat out blood.
She must have been blind in the past to think he was a cultured man. It was the thought of Shaun that made her uncomfortable earlier.
As it turned out, he did have a property in this area. It was his decision to pick any design company, but she would undoubtedly be furious if he handed over the renovation project to Rosabella.
