“Since when did we get along that well?” Shaun was even more convinced of what Suzie said. “Liam Lyons, you already have a daughter. How old are you?
You need to stop fooling around all day and take responsibility for your daughter. Suzie needs you.”
“But I need freedom. Hey, to tell you the truth, I was very happy to have a daughter at first, but after a few days, it became troublesome. I have no freedom, and Suzie doesn’t want to sleep with Mom, so I can only hand her to you.”
Then, Liam hung up the phone.
Shaun looked down and saw a teary-eyed Suzie, who said, “Daddy doesn’t like me anymore.”
“No, Daddy is busy. You’ll sleep at Uncle’s tonight, okay?” It hurt Shaun to see her cry.
“Uncle, sorry for troubling you.” Suzie’s clever appearance made Shaun curse Liam ten thousand times over.
How could he find such a lovely girl troublesome? Did he know how envious Shaun was? Damn it.
In the seaside villa.
When Sarah heard the sound of the engine, she immediately put on some makeup and ran out happily. However, her mood soured when she saw the little girl on Shaun’s shoulder. “ Shaun, she’s… ”
“She’s staying here tonight,” Shaun explained succinctly. “Tell Aunty Zara to cook more dishes for her.”
“Okay. ” Sarah’s blood boiled. Recently, Shaun had been lukewarm to her, so she wanted to please him and get intimate with him tonight.
However, Suzie said sweetly, “Hello, Aunty. You’re so pretty.”
“Thank you. You’re very cute too…” Sarah complimented stiffly.
During dinner, Shaun’s phone rang. He looked at the well-behaved Suzie and said to Sarah, “ Look after her for a while.”
Then, he took his phone and walked to the side to answer it.
“Aunty, can you help me with some fish? I can’t reach it.” Suzie pointed at the steamed fish with her tender little hand.
Sarah gave her a piece and then ignored her.
For some reason, the more she looked at the child, the more she hated her.
After a while, she heard the sound of the girl coughing painfully.
Shaun, who had just put down his phone, came back to see the girl’s flushed face, looking like she was in great pain.
He looked at the fish in her bowl and instantly realized that she had choked on a bone. Hence, he hurriedly poured a glass of water for her.
Even so, Suzie was still in pain. Fortunately, Aunty Zara in the kitchen had reacted quickly by getting her to drink some apple cider vinegar.
“Uncle…” When Suzie got better, she held Shaun and started to cry.
“You’re fine now.” Shaun patted her back. For a moment back then, he was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat.
“I think… we shouldn’t cook fish next time, ” Sarah said with concern. “It’s easy for children to choke on the bones.”
Unexpectedly, the words did not sit well with Shaun. “Eating fish makes children smarter. This fish doesn’t have many bones, but you didn’t pay attention and gave her the part with the most bones. Didn’t I tell you to look after her?”
He suddenly thought of Cate yesterday. She had cooked fish as well, but she picked out the bones individually and checked it carefully before feeding it to Suzie.
In the past, he always felt that Sarah was meticulous. However, he now realized that even though they were both not yet mothers, Cate was much more patient with children.
Sarah, who had been suddenly accused, was stunned. Her eyes could not help but turn red, and she wanted to speak up.
It was at that moment when Suzie tugged Shaun’s sleeve and said, “Don’t blame Auntie. I was careless.”
Shaun stroked her head. “Uncle will pick out the bones for you.”
Under the warm yellow light, Sarah gritted her teeth and wanted nothing more than to slap Suzie.
After dinner, Suzie wanted to take a bath.
Shaun had no experience in bathing children, so he could only ask Aunty Zara to bathe her.
However, Suzie shook her head. “Mommy said I can’t let strangers look at my body. Aunty Sarah, can you bathe me?”
She looked at Sarah expectantly.
Sarah’s scalp tingled. “I… I don’t know either…” ‘Besides, we’re not that familiar, okay?’
“Forget it. I won’t bathe.” Suzie lowered her head. “ Uncle can’t bathe me either. It’s improper for a boy and girl to touch.”
Shaun laughed and turned to Sarah. “Just bathe her. Haven’t you been thinking of having a child? You can get some practice first.”
Sarah stomped her feet and acted like a spoiled child. “ I shouldn’t be the only one responsible for the child. When the time comes, we’ll definitely hire a nanny. We can just leave bathing the child to the nanny.”
Suzie tilted her head with a puzzled look. “But all m y baths used to be with Mommy, and she even washed my clothes. She said I’m her most precious baby. Even though she’s tired, she will not feel so as long as she thinks of me.”
Sarah’s face stiffened. Deep down, she slandered that Suzie’s mother was just a barmaid, so she must be too poor to hire a nanny.
However, she merely said in a gentle tone, “That’s different.”
“How is it different?” Suzie became more confused.
Sarah did not know how to respond to her, but when she saw Shaun’s eyes turning darker, she finally said, “Fine, I’ll bathe you.”
She just wanted to bathe Suzie as quickly as possible and be done with it.
With that, she went to fill the bathtub with water.
When Suzie went in, she said it was too hot, and then it was too cold. After multiple back-and-
forths, Sarah gradually lost patience. Her beautiful face looked more and more unpleasant.
She could resist warning in a low voice, “Shut up. If you dare make a fuss again, I won’t allow your uncle to bring you here anymore.”
Suzie stared at her with fear.
When Sarah saw this, she said, “You better believe me. I’m about to marry your uncle, and we’ll have children in the future. Your uncle will never be your father. No matter how much he dotes on you, you’re just his niece. Your dad doesn’t share the same father as your uncle either. Do you know that your dad and uncle have had a bad relationship since they were young? They usually never talk to each other.”
Suzie looked down and revealed a frightened expression. She stopped talking all at once.
Sarah smiled and lowered her voice again. “But don’t worry. As long as you’re obedient and don’t get in the way of your uncle and my feelings, I won’t dislike you.”
“Thank you, Aunty. I don’t want to bathe anymore.” Suzie came out of the water and shivered. “It’s so cold.”
“Just bear with it…” Sarah had just finished speaking when Suzie threw herself into her arms.
Suzie was completely wet, so Sarah’s expensive silk pajamas were also drenched.
Sarah subconsciously pushed her away.
That was when Suzie fell to the ground and started to wail.
“Suzie, what happened?”
Shaun heard the child’s heartbreaking cries inside and immediately rushed in. However, what he saw was Sarah sitting on a stool while Suzie sat naked on the cold floor, crying.

That scene made Shaun’s blood boil, and his heart could not help but clench in pain.
He hurriedly pulled a bath towel and rushed over to wrap the tiny body in it tightly. Then, he picked Suzie up in his arms and quickly walked out of the bathroom.
