“…Fine.”
Cate frowned. If it was about Mireya, then she had to agree.
Once they were upstairs, she said directly, “Spit it out.”
Shaun looked around. “Is this how you treat your guests? Where’s the cup of tea?”
“If you’re here for tea, you can go out and turn right, and take the elevator and go straight down.” Cate crossed her arms. “I’m very busy. I have n o time to drink tea with Eldest Young Master Lyons.”
“You’re so heartless.” Shaun’s heart was extremely bitter. He never thought that he would have to use Mireya as an excuse just to see her. “Why did you move?”
“Shaun Lyons, I only let you up because of Mireya.” Cate was getting impatient.
“Do you not want to see me that much?” Shaun looked at her with his deep eyes.
“ Isn’t that inevitable? Just looking at you disgusts me.”
Cate did not conceal the disgust in her eyes.
“Haven’t I made myself clear enough? You’re always like that. When you think you’re right, you look down on me from high above, and your actions towards me are worse than death. But the moment you know you’re wrong, you immediately come back to please me and beg for forgiveness. It has happened more than just once or twice. Even if you’re not tired, I’m annoyed.”
Shaun’s handsome face turned unpleasant at her words.
No one had ever scolded him like this. However, he now realized that he was willing to take the scolding as long as he could see her.
These days, he has been going crazy thinking about her every day. Especially the guilt and longing that made him suffer.
“I’m only here to remind you that it’s best not to let Mireya agree to the engagement with Rodney.”
Shaun said with some difficulty, “Rodney has been completely bewitched by Sarah, and there’s no way he’ll marry Mireya. Mireya is just a strategy he’s using to delay the Snow family…”
“Is that all you wanted to say?” Cate interrupted him in exasperation. “I don’t need you t o tell me what I already know. Do you think I’m stupid enough to think that Rodney suddenly likes Mireya because they spent a night together?
“Have you ever thought about how the public would criticize Mireya if she didn’t admit that they were engaged? They would say she wrecked other people’s relationships and call her the third-party.”
Shaun gulped. In fact, he had also thought of that.
“You’re saying all this because you want to stop Mireya from getting in between Rodney and Sarah, right? You’re also taking great pains in order to make sure Sarah gains happiness.” Cate sneered.
“It’s not that. Cate, I really didn’t know Sarah well before. But so many things have happened recently that I now realize I was indeed blind before. She’s not that simple.”
Shaun hurriedly defended, “If Mireya continues on with this, she’ll become cannon fodder between Sarah and Rodney. Rodney has been completely brainwashed by Sarah. His feelings for her are too deep.”
“Oh,” Cate responded faintly. “Are you done? Then you can go.”
This annoyed Shaun. How many times had she told him to leave today?
“Cate, I’ll compensate Logan, okay? Or… I’ll pay him back with my finger.”
Cate looked astonished.
She had never thought that the high and mighty Shaun Lyons would propose such compensation.
In his eyes, Logan was just a bodyguard. With Shaun’s previous character, there was no way he would use his own fingers to compensate.
When Shaun saw that she had stopped talking, a hint of determination flashed in his narrow dark eyes. “As long as you can forgive me, I’m willing to compensate him with my own finger. He can even cut it off himself.”
He held out his hand and looked at her with burning eyes.
It was just a finger. Without it, he could still hug and kiss her.
The pain of losing a finger would definitely not be a s deep as the pain of her hating and avoiding him.
Cate glanced at his fingers. She had known before that his fingers were slender and clean, but she had never seen a man’s fingers look as good as his.
“No need.” She turned away and said faintly, “ What’s the point of cutting off your finger? Logan can’t attach it to his anyway.”
Shaun’s handsome face revealed a smile, and even his eyes were bright like starlight. “Cate, is it because you feel bad for me? You can’t bear for me to cut off my finger.”
“You’re overthinking.” Cate immediately denied it. “It’s because I don’t want to forgive you, and I don’t want to get back together with you.
Shaun Lyons, don’t you get it yet? Being with you is too painful, and I’ve never had a day of peace.
Besides, you can even hurt your own children. I can never get back together with a man like you.”
As soon as she finished, she got up.
Shaun’s handsome face paled, and he subconsciously grabbed her arm. “Where are you going?”
“Obviously, if you won’t leave, then I will, ” Cate said calmly.
Shaun’s throat moved in pain, and his grip on her tightened slightly. As he stared at her for half a second, the guilt in his eyes was replaced by an abyss of darkness.
“Cate, don’t you understand? Since you incurred me in this life, don’t even think of leaving.”
“ Shaun Lyons, you’re dreaming.” Cate looked up with eyes full of anger.
However, Shaun only smiled. It was fine if she hated him or if she was angry at him. As long as he could see her face from now on, he would be satisfied.
As for the rest, it did not matter. For the rest of his life, he would be able to soften her eventually.
Yet, if he let go now, they would have nothing to do with each other.
“Cate, you shouldn’t have come back to me for revenge.” Shaun stared at her. “If I had married Sarah, nothing would have happened to you. But you just had to make me fall deeply in love with you. Say, do you think I’d let go of the woman I love so deeply?”
“Why? What are you going to threaten me with this time?” Cate mocked. “Sorry to say this, but my dad’s illness has been cured, and Yule Corporation has nothing to do with me anymore. Do you want to deal with Hudson again? Go ahead. I have a lot of money anyway, so it’s fine if Hudson changes owners. Money is just a mere worldly possession.”
Shaun was at a loss for words. Yes, there was nothing he could threaten her with anymore. What else could he do?
“Cate, don’t force me. In this life, you can only be mine.” He stared at her for a moment and left behind those determined words, and turned to leave.
