“Same with me.” Suzie echoed.
“Yes, don’t acknowledge her. I won’t either.” Cate was already completely disillusioned by the word ¡®mother’. “Are you hungry? Let’s eat together…”
Just as she spoke, Hadley suddenly called her. “Miss Cox, I heard that you’ve rescued Suzie.”
“Yeah, she’s fine.” Cate asked, “How’s Shaun?”
Hadley was silent for two seconds before saying, ” Not good. He’s not talking to me and isn’t willing to eat. He doesn’t even want sweets, nor does he want to watch cartoons.”
Cate was having a bit of a headache. She originally wanted to tuck the children into bed before going over.
” I’ll come over later. Watch him and don’t let him run around.”
After hanging up the phone, two pairs of eyes were fixed on her.
“Mommy, go to Daddy. I’ll stay with Suzie,” Lucas said sensibly.
“Alright, go ahead. Daddy is only two years old now. He’s younger than me, ” Suzie also said. She was indeed disappointed, but there was no helping it. Her daddy was even more clingy than her now.
“Go on. We’ll watch them for you.” Lea picked Suzie up. “Grandma will sleep with you tonight.”
Suzie pouted and asked pitifully, “Then will Grandpa accompany us too?”
Lea,”..”
Brennan was also instantly embarrassed. If one added up his and Lea’s age, it would be almost a hundred. Even so, his face could not help but grow hot.
Cate, who was standing at the side, almost burst out laughing. However, she held back and did not say anything. She was actually looking forward to them reconciling.
“Suzie, that won’t do.” Lea stiffly refused her request in a gentle voice.
“Why not? My preschool friend said that her grandpa and grandma sleep with her sometimes, ” Suzie said with conviction.
“Your grandma and I are divorced,” Brennan explained in a low voice.
“My daddy and mommy are also divorced but they still sleep together every day, ” Suzie said with an innocent face.
Cate, who was suddenly dragged into this, “..” “Um, I’ll go now.” Cate waved, wanting to hurry up and extricate herself from this awkward situation.
As for the little imp Suzie, she would let Lea and Brennan take care of her.
She kissed the two children and ran away.
Brennan and Lea exchanged a rare tacit glance. They also wanted to run away but could not.
Since something had happened to their son, taking care of their grandchildren was their duty.
“Let’s sleep together, okay?” Suzie grabbed her grandparents with one hand each and said sadly, ” Actually, I want Daddy and Mommy to accompany me, but they don’t have time now.”
Suzie sniffed, looking like she was about to cry.
Lea’s heart ached when she saw it and quickly said, “Lucas, hurry up and comfort Suzie.”
“Grandma, I’m not the one who made her cry.” Lucas looked as though he was completely uninvolved in the matter. “Grandma, your son is really lacking. He was deceived by a woman and then divorced my mom. After going through so much trouble to get back together with Mommy, he fell into someone’s trap again. Now, he has the IQ of a two-year-old and even snatched Mommy away from us. I originally thought that by coming here, I’ll get a daddy along with a mommy, but now even Mommy isn’t around anymore.”
Brennan and Lea were even more embarrassed by the child’s words.
There was nothing wrong with what Lucas said.
Lea did not want to talk anymore and looked at Brennan. “You explain it.”
Brennan’s expression was complicated. What could he say? It was indeed Shaun’s fault. He was tricked by Sarah time and again. Now, he even wanted Cate to give up spending time with her children to accompany him.
In the end, the ones who were suffering the most were the children.
However, to ask him to sleep with Lea…
Brennan felt conflicted. When he miserably left the country back then, his hatred for her had long surpassed his love.
These decades, it was not like there were no women who threw themselves at him. However, he was bent on revenge and had no other thoughts.
After he came back and got revenge, he learned that Lea had also gotten tricked by Mason. Hence, he could not retaliate against her.
He never thought about getting back together with her.
However, too many things have happened recently. Due to this son and grandchildren, he became more entangled with the Lyons family.
“Okay, Grandpa and Grandma will accompany you.” Brennan suddenly opened his mouth after a long time.
Lea looked back at him in shock.
Under the moonlight, she could see that there were fine lines at the corners of his eyes. Even so, he had taken good care of his appearance. His handsome and cold outlines had become more mature and reserved with the passage of time. His figure was still tall and upright, as though he was a glass of fine wine that grew more and more mellow as time passed.
She was already in her middle age, but her heart suddenly skipped a few beats like when she was young.
When they were married, her heart had been touched by Brennan before, so it was actually easy to revive that feeling again.
As Cate drove to the hospital, she silently sympathized with Brennan and Lea.
She felt that Suzie and Lucas were about to trick them again.
However, that was fine. Although Brennan was very cold toward Lea, he had not remarried for decades and there was no woman around him. Maybe he really had not let go of Lea.
It was almost 8:00 p.m. by the time she reached the hospital.
Cate hurried into the ward, where Shaun was curled up in a ball with his back to the door. The pale light fell on his figure, giving him an air of loneliness.
Hadley stood up and shrugged at her helplessly. Cate nodded and walked over.
Shaun’s handsome and clean face was full of grievances, sadness, and loneliness. His eyes were tinged red as though tears were about to fall yet he was desperately enduring it. His lips were also pressed together tightly, making him look like a poor child who was refusing to cry even though he was suffering.
Cate’s heart almost melted.
She really could not stand seeing a big man like him show such an adorable expression.
She walked over, sat on the bed, and rubbed his head. “Why aren’t you eating? Aren’t you hungry?”
When Shaun saw her, his dark eyes instantly brightened as though there were countless stars twinkling in them.
If there was a tail behind him, it would definitely be wagging rapidly now.
“Cate, you’re back.”
“Yeah, ” Cate repeated her question, “Why aren’t you eating?”
” I don’t want to eat if you’re not around. ” Shaun pouted and glanced at Hadley. “I don’t like him.
He’s not as good-looking as you.”
Hadley, “….”
He wanted to cry. ¡®Young Master Lyons, you’re so biased when it comes to your woman. I didn’t notice it before.’
“A person can’t survive on their looks alone, ” Cate said gently, “Plus, Hadley cares about you very much.”
“I don’t want him to care about me. I just want you.” Shaun looked at her with his clear and beautiful eyes.
Cate’s face heated up at his stare. However, too many things had happened today and she was a little tired. Hence, she did not have the strength to be affectionate with him. “I’ll feed you, okay?”
“Okay.” Shaun nodded hard.
Hadley quickly brought over the takeaway box. “It’s still warm.”
