“What’s wrong with Suzie? As soon as I knew something happened to her, I ran eight red lights to get here.”
“Thank you, Liam.” Cate was extremely grateful to him. “Suzie is still undergoing emergency treatment. She needs 500 milliliters of blood.”
“I have the same blood type as her. Hurry up and take my blood.” Liam rolled up his sleeves without further ado.
“Wait a minute. We need to confirm your blood type first.”
The nurse swiftly took him downstairs. After confirming his blood type, 500 milliliters of his blood was soon transfused to Suzie. With that, Suzie’s condition gradually improved.
“Liam, I have no idea how to express my gratitude to you this time.” Cate felt that she owed Liam a lot.
“No worries. After all, Suzie is my biological niece.”
With a ghastly look, Liam finished a bottle of milk. He might be a healthy adult, but donating 500 milliliters of blood had still caused him to feel slightly dizzy. “Go and keep Suzie company. I’ll rest here for a while.”
“Mm.”
Shortly after Cate returned to Suzie’s ward, Mireya came over in a rush.
“My God! I just went back only to find your house in a sorry mess. I’ve called the police. So how’s Suzie now?”
“She’s out of danger.” Cate fixed her sympathetic gaze on Suzie who remained unconscious. This little kid’s forehead was bandaged using gauze, and her pinkish cheeks had become pale.
“That bunch of people is indeed cruel. How could they even harm a child?”
Mireya paused for a moment before she asked indifferently, “Was it Thomas’ doing?”
“Probably.” Cate nodded impassively. She had too many enemies. If Melanie and Damien wanted to take action against her, they would have done it earlier instead of today.
“It’s all my fault,” Mireya said guiltily, “I recklessly provoked Thomas publicly during the press conference today. He must’ve seen it. He was already bold enough to barge into my house three years ago, so I don’t think there’s anything he’s afraid to do.”
“Yeah. When he was caught red-handed three years ago, he didn’t even go to jail. That’s why he’s so fearless now.” A grim look washed over Cate’s face. “Coincidentally, I have yet to settle old scores with him.”
Mireya pursed her lips. “I’m afraid that Shaun… will defend him.”
Cate’s chest felt tight. She turned her head around and glanced at Suzie. A surge of rage then came over her.
Sarah Neeson and Thomas Neeson!
She had to make those who had hurt her daughter pay!
When dawn broke, the police came and said, “We’ve identified the people who smashed the things in your house. They were hooligans from around the neighborhood, and we’ve already arrested them. They admitted that they broke into your house to commit burglary. We found some jewelry and cash on them. Take a look and confirm if these are the items that they stole from your house.”
“Yes.” Cate glanced at those items and received them.
“Alright. Case closed.”
When the police were ready to leave, Mireya said with dissatisfaction, “Clearly, it wasn’t burglary. Someone paid them to take revenge on us.”
“Enough, Mireya. The police have done what they could.”
Cate stopped her and let the police leave.
“I’m sure Thomas has bribed them,” Mireya said furiously.
Cate scoffed. “Of course. Well, practice makes perfect. The more evil deeds Thomas has done, the more proficient he becomes. Before this, Shaun had to clean up his messes. Now, he can settle things by himself so well that he won’t even need to suffer the consequences.”
“Aren’t we going to take revenge on Suzie’s behalf?” Mireya asked discontentedly.
“We’ll take it slow. But… I won’t be able to live well until I pay them back.”
Cate handed Lucas to Mireya. “I’m going out.”
“Mommy, where are you going?” Lucas asked concernedly.
“I’m going to get some breakfast. I’ll be back soon. Look after your sister in the meantime.” Cate left the hospital upon reassuring Lucas.
…
8:00 a.m.
In the seaside villa.
After Shaun finished his breakfast, Sarah took off his suit. Then, she gently smiled and said, “Since it’s still early, can you accompany me to the hospital? I need to take a shot.”
These days, she had to visit the hospital very often to take the trigger shot so that she could successfully undergo IVF treatment.
Upon hearing her request, Shaun turned around and fixed his complicated gaze on her. “Actually, there’s no rush for us to get pregnant. Since we’re still young, it’s not too late to do it after we get married.”
“Shaunic, I’m not young anymore. I want to have children as soon as possible and build a family with you. I’m not afraid of pain. I don’t mind suffering the pain for your sake,” Sarah replied softly while wrapping her hands around his neck.
“… Okay, I’ll go there with you.” Shaun lowered his eyes apologetically. If it was not because he could not bring himself to do it with her, she would not have to go to all the trouble of undergoing IVF.
Cate was right in saying that going for IVF placed women at a disadvantage.
When the car just started and they were about to drive out of the courtyard, an SUV suddenly rushed past the iron gate and drove toward Shaun’s car.
Shaun swiftly turned the steering wheel to dodge it. The SUV drove across the plants in the courtyard and crashed into the French window. Subsequently, the glass broke and shards scattered all over the ground.
Cate kicked the door open. Wearing a pair of Dr. Martens boots and jeans, she leaped out of the SUV with icy eyes.
Shaun narrowed his eyes, while Sarah put her arms around his waist with a shudder. She seemed to have gotten a fright.
“What is she planning to do, Shaunic? This is frightening. She almost hit us.”
Shaun opened the door grimly and got out of the car. Seeing the mess in the courtyard, he flew into a rage. “Cate Cox, are you asking for death early in the morning? I’ve had enough of you.”
“I’ve had enough of both of you as well.” Cate slowly walked toward him, her eyes revealing fury. “Why didn’t I manage to hit you shameless couple to death just now?”
“You’re ill! Go and take your medicine.” Shaun looked at Cate as if she was a madwoman.
Sarah got out of the car and advised Cate dejectedly, “Calm down, Cate. I know the news of my marriage to Shaun has probably triggered you, but what you’re doing now is illegal. I’ve just called the police.”
Shaun was taken aback. Then, Sarah explained helplessly, “She has gone too far this time. Have you noticed the mess in our courtyard? Luckily, no one was hit. If we don’t teach her a lesson, she’ll behave more unscrupulously next time.”
Shaun kept quiet for a moment.
He was aware that Cate still loved him, but her crazy behavior really terrified him. He felt the need to teach her a lesson as well.
Looking at the two of them, Cate scoffed. “Stop overthinking things. I came here not because I’m jealous of your marriage. I want to warn you that my temper has its limits. Sarah Langley, you’d better keep an eye on Thomas. A few people broke into my house and smashed my things last night.
“Mireya attacked Thomas in front of the media during the day and something happened to my house that same night. How could it be a coincidence? Although those people who have been arrested for barging into my house are just hooligans, the person who instructed them had to be Thomas. It can’t be anyone else.”
Shaun’s expression changed a little. Only then did he notice Cate’s pale face and swollen eyes. It seemed that she had not slept last night and even wept.
“Was it Thomas’ doing?” He turned his head around and gazed at Sarah sternly.
“No… No way.”
Knowing nothing about the matter, Sarah began to panic.
“I called my brother yesterday. He said that he doesn’t mind Mireya’s words and won’t cause you and her trouble. Cate, I think you’ve offended a lot of people. You can’t blame my brother just because you hate me.”
“I don’t need to remind you how despicable Thomas is, do I? Three years ago, he was already bold enough to barge into Mireya’s house and act violently. Despite knowing that I was pregnant at that time, he dared to push me! What’s more, his sister is going to marry into the Lyons family soon. What would he be afraid of doing?”
Cate glared at Shaun resentfully. “Go ahead and defend Thomas forever. Because of him, your reputation will be damaged sooner or later. Everyone will be disgusted by how you aid and abet him.”
