“Well… Eating with you isn’t an issue. As for swimming, I’ll think about it…”
“I don’t care. I want to swim. If you don’t promise me, I’ll cry in front of you. Hmph.” Suzie began to threaten Cate angrily.
Cate’s head hurt badly. She would have to talk about it when she met Suzie later.
When Cate was about to pick Suzie up at four- ish in the afternoon, Shaun gave her a call. He told her that he would pick Suzie up and asked her to head to the restaurant for dinner straight away.
Cate readily agreed as it was much more convenient for her not to pick Suzie up.
When she came to reflect on this, there were quite a lot of pros to letting her children acknowledge their father.
The restaurant that Shaun had chosen had a spacious courtyard with a peaceful environment.
By the time Cate arrived there, the two children were playing with remote-controlled racing cars in the courtyard. On the other hand, Shaun was seated on the chair beside some pots of red blooms. The man was wearing an orange shirt and a pair of gray pants. The bright color simply made him look so exquisite that the flowers around him paled in comparison.
“Mommy…”
Suzie first spotted Cate. She ran to her and hugged her happily. “Mommy, look, these are the new cars Granny bought for us. I’m having a competition with Lucas.”
“You’re playing well.” Cate stroked her hair and gazed at Lucas.
She was worried about Lucas. During this period, he would stay at Joel’s place sometimes and the Lyons household at other times.
“Lucas, how’s your stay in the Lyons family’s house? ” Cate asked Lucas in front of Shaun.
Shaun looked at his son nervously. These few days, everyone in the Lyons family had been going all out to please this little one.
“… It’s fine,” Lucas looked up and answered her.
Cate was a little surprised. Given Lucas’ reserved disposition, his reply meant that he got along well with the Lyons family.
“That’s great. ” She sighed in relief. Now that she was at ease, she could focus her attention on the investigation on the cause of Nathan’s death.
“Stop playing. Come in and have some barbecue. Let’s finish our food soon and go for a swim, ” Shaun approached them and said.
“Hooray! I can swim! ” Suzie was ecstatic.
Cate pulled a long face. “Considering that she’s still so young, swimming isn’t suitable for her. Also, the water in the pool isn’t clean. It’s easy to get sick there.”
Once she finished speaking, the two children’s faces fell. Even Lucas frowned, looking unhappy.
“It’s a private pool. It’s not open to the public, ” Shaun explained, “And I’ve already asked the manager to have the water changed. No one will be using the pool except for our family.”
At that moment, Cate could not find any other excuses.
When she swung around in annoyance, Shaun shot a look at the two children and smiled smugly.
When he mentioned ¡®our family’, Cate had not denied it.
Suzie chuckled secretly. Meanwhile, a subtle smile flashed across Lucas’ eyes and he seemed to be in a good mood.
At night, the four of them had barbecue.
The meat was prepared by the chef who came from Country H, so it was authentic.
Shaun took the initiative to barbecue the meat, whereas Cate and the children just focused on eating.
The three of them were full. After they rested for half an hour, Shaun drove to the private pool.
By the time they reached there, the manager had already prepared four new swimsuits for them.
The moment Cate saw her swim suit, she was completely speechless. Initially, she was afraid that Shaun would deliberately prepare a sexy bikini for her. However, the swimsuit in front of her was worlds apart from a bikini. This was just a black one-piece swimsuit. Seeing how old school it was, she was at a loss for words Unlike hers, Suzie’s pink floral swimsuit looked pretty.
“Mommy, your swimsuit is so ugly.” Suzie scoffed with disgust.
Cate could only smile reluctantly. “With my beauty and wonderful figure, I’ll look good in everything I wear.”
Lucas went along with what Cate said. ” Mommy, everything looks good on you.”
Shaun nodded. “I think your mommy is too pretty, so I chose an ordinary swimsuit for her.”
A moment later, Cate came out with Suzie, holding her hand. Lucas and Shaun were already waiting outside. There was nothing extraordinary about Lucas in his swimsuit, given that he was still a cute kid. However, Shaun, who was standing beside him in a pair of blue swim trunks, had revealed his sturdy and muscular physique. He had a wonderful figure. His chest showed his pees clearly, but they were not too big. Overall, he oozed a masculine charm that was suffocating.
Cate had seen him like this before, but it had been a long while since then.
After darting a glance at him, she could not avert her eyes.
Her face was burning in spite of herself, especially when she recalled leaning on his chest and crying uncontrollably a few days ago. Similarly, Shaun gazed at her with burning eyes.
Even though Cate was wearing a black one ¨C piece swimsuit that was very old school, her hair was tied into a bun, which made her pretty features more prominent. The swimsuit emphasized her curves, while her snowy legs beneath the skirt looked alluring.
She was still so pretty despite having given birth to two children for Shaun.
She was like red wine—the more it aged, the better it tasted.
“Scummy Dad, why are you staring at Mommy? Let’s go swimming,” Suzie said with a pout.
With the child blurting out this statement, the two adults felt abashed.
Cate’s pretty face turned crimson. She could not help but glance at Shaun before she held Suzie’s hand and got into the pool.
Lucas tagged along.
Shaun coughed lightly and immediately said, ” Lucas, I’m going to teach you how to swim freestyle today.”
Since Lucas knew how to swim, Shaun took him to the other end of the pool to swim in the deeper parts. Suzie could not swim yet, so Cate dared not risk bringing her there. She just let her play in the shallow end of the pool.
After playing for a while, Suzie saw Lucas and Shaun swimming like fishes on the other end. She kept badgering Cate to take her there.
“No way. You can’t swim, so you can’t go there. ” Cate rejected her.
“I want to go there. I have a float.” Suzie continued to make a scene.
Cate’s head hurt. At this moment, Shaun came with Lucas. “Enough, Suzie. You can play with water guns with Lucas.”
“Yay! I have a water gun to play with! “
The two children began to play with water guns in the pool.
Shaun walked to Cate who was covered with water droplets. The droplets slid all the way down to her neck.
“Shaun, where are you looking?” Upon catching his gaze, she flushed and glowered at him fiercely.
When she subconsciously wanted to cover her body, she realized that there was nothing exposed in this swimsuit.
“If I wanted to look at your body, I would’ve gotten you a bikini.” Shaun wiped away the water on his face, his handsome face revealing an evil smile. ” But I didn’t do that because our son is around. I don’t want any other guys to see you in a bikini.”
It turned out that he was wary of Lucas.
Cate was completely at a loss for words. She could not be bothered about Shaun.
Since the two kids, who acted as the third wheels, were finally not around, Shaun would surely not miss this opportunity. “Are you… feeling better?”
Cate did not say a word.
Shaun could not help but say weakly, “The other day, you wept so bitterly because of Nathan although he had hurt you. If something happens to me one day, will you shed tears over me?”
“No. An awful man like you even survived the elevator plunging down last time, ” Cate snarked indifferently.
“It depends. Sometimes people just leave without any signs…”
” Shaun Lyons, are you done? Why must you be a wet blanket by mentioning such a thing when all of us are having fun?” Cate glared at him in annoyance.
