Could it be that Cate had another man?
At the thought of this possibility, Shaun’s chest burned.
“Oh no. Uncle, you look terrifying. ” Aware that she had spilled the beans, Suzie was so frightened that she wanted to run away.
“Suzie, don’ t be scared. ” Shaun endured the pain and got out of his wheelchair. He hugged her and said imploringly, “I really love Cate. Yes, I’ve hurt her a lot of times before, and it pains me too. I know I shouldn’t bother her, but I can’t stop thinking about her all the time…”
“Why didn’t you feel this way about her when you were with Aunty Sarah?”
Suzie spoke bluntly with a dazed expression. “I…” Shaun was at a loss for words. “I did think about her, but I kept my feelings to myself because I misunderstood her at that time. I thought she was a bad woman…”
“So you don’t like Aunty Cate just because she’s bad? It shows that you only like kind women. But there are a lot of kind women out there. Does it mean that you like all of them?” Suzie’s question made Shaun speechless again.
Indeed, Shaun always talked about how bad and wicked Cate was.
Since there were many kind women out there, did he like them all? Nope.
Suzie pouted. “Why do you like Aunty Cate then? You don’t like her when she’s bad, so you only like her when she’s not bad?”
Shaun cast Suzie a strange look. “ I realized that… you might look similar to Liam, but you don’t take after his personality. You’re so articulate at a young age, and I think you’re like me. You can become a lawyer in the future.”
Deep down, Suzie mumbled. She was not Liam’s daughter in the first place. “I don’t want to be like you. Great-grandma said that you’re a scumbag. I don’t want to be a scumbag’s daughter.”
Shaun touched his nose bitterly. It seemed like everyone in Australia had confirmed that he was a scumbag.
“You’re right, Suzie. Back then, I was… too extreme. When I like someone, I should like both her good and bad sides. Unfortunately, I grasped it too late. Please help me…”
“No.” Suzie rejected him mercilessly. “If I lie to Aunty Cate for your sake, she might not want to see me again. Since you did something wrong, you should sort out the problem yourself.”
“But she won’t meet me.” Shaun’s face was filled with desolation.
Suzie glanced at his face that resembled hers. As his daughter, she sympathized with him a little. “ Mommy used to tell me that as long as you put your mind to it, you can do it. Also, it’s shown on TV that a persistent man can eventually soften a woman’s heart. You should ponder over it.”
With that, the little kid quickly ran away.
Shaun was stunned. He did not expect that he would one day have a little brat to guide him through relationships.
However, when he thought it over, he found it quite logical.
He might as well continue to pester her in the belief that she would forgive him someday.
After dinner, he reflected for a moment before he asked his chauffeur to send him to Hackett Institute. While bearing the pain on his wound, he bent over and placed the candles on the plaza downstairs to form the word ‘sorry’.
Every time he bent over, it hurt him so much as his wound tore open. However, he tried his best to endure the pain.
When he finally lit the candles, he had already attracted many onlookers in the neighborhood.
One of the boys approached Shaun and looked at him. “Sir, it’s you again.”
Within seconds, Shaun recognized him as the boy who lived next to Cate. He had bumped into him a few times. “Yeah. I offended her.”
“Oh, but putting candles like this won’t work.” The boy tilted his head and said, “That lady moved out yesterday morning. I even bumped into her, and
she told me that she’d never come back anymore.” Ding.
The lighter in Shaun’s hand dropped onto the floor. His head began to buzz.
He did not expect that she would move out just like that. Did it mean that she no longer wanted to see him?
An inexplicable sense of bitterness washed over him.
The boy glanced at Shaun sympathetically and said, “My mom said that both of you are the most miserable couple she has ever seen. You guys argue with each other several times a month. That lady is probably sick of arguing with you this time. Hurry u p and go back. Stop placing the candles here, or it might cause a fire.”
The boy left as soon as he finished speaking.
Shaun raised his head and glanced at the floor that Cate used to live on. The corners of his mouth pulled into a sad smile.
Shaun had trouble sleeping last night again. When he got up in the morning and put on his clothes, Rodney’s deafening knocks on the door suddenly rang from the outside.
As soon as he opened the door, Rodney rushed in. The wound on his face had not healed, and his alluring eyes were filled with rage. “Shaun Lyons, how dare you publicly announce that you’ve broken up with Sarah. You even claimed that both of you would never get back together. Are you human? She has hurt herself so badly. Why must you torture her?”
The fuss Rodney made caused Shaun’s head to hurt. “Did the Snow family just release you?”
“Duh. I just went to visit Sarah, and she has slit her wrist to kill herself again because of you. Shaun, I f* cking feel like killing you.”
Boiling with anger, Rodney pointed at him. “Hasn’t she suffered enough from the kidnap last time? I thought you’d protect her when the Snow family locked me up. But it turns out that you believe what
other people say about Sarah plotting the incident. It wouldn’t take an idiot to know that Sarah couldn’t have done such a thing.”
At the sight of Rodney’s reaction, Shaun found himself so angry that he did not know what to say. He seemed to have grasped why Cate always used to call him blind. It was probably because whenever Cate confronted him, he would act as how Rodney just did.
He really wanted to hit Rodney’s head with a hammer.
“Rodney, it’s true that the matter has nothing to do with Cate and Logan…”
“After all, you’re biased toward Cate. You’ve been so bewitched by her that you can’t differentiate right from wrong, ” Rodney shouted at him.
Shaun’s temples pulsed, and he said indifferently, “ Enough. No matter how you criticize and advise me, I’ve made up my mind. Since I have no feelings for Sarah anymore, I should keep a distance from her. She should have her own life too. I can’t possibly protect her forever. So when both of you meet up next time, you don’t have to invite me. Even if you kneel in front of me now, I won’t change my mind.”
“Great, Shaun. I’ll remember your words. From now on, I, Rodney Snow, do not have a cruel buddy like you anymore. Since you don’t want Sarah, I do. I’ll be responsible for the rest of her life.”
Rodney kicked the door and left in a huff.
Disappointed, Shaun rubbed his forehead. He did not expect that his relationship with Rodney would one day end in such a state because of a woman.
However, he did not want anyone to affect or threaten his relationship anymore.
Whether he loved a person or not, he had to make it clear.
In the mall.
