Cate looked at his ashen expression and wanted to laugh.
In the end, she drove the car to the children’s restaurant Shaun mentioned.
Shaun wanted to please his children. Since he knew Suzie’s tastes but had no idea when it came to Lucas, he simply ordered all of the children’s favorites in the restaurant.
“That’s enough. Don’t order too much. It’s a waste.” Cate stopped him.
Before Shaun could speak, Suzie interjected. “It’s not a waste. Mommy, just let scummy dad spend money. He should be spending money on us anyway.”
Cate poked her head. “Don’t think I don’t know that you like eating. Your teeth will rot if you eat so much.”
“Don’t accuse me. Godmother always says that if you don’t spend a man’s money, he’ll spend it on other women.” Suzie puffed out her small chest and said confidently.
Cate rubbed her forehead. That damn Mireya always taught Suzie nonsense like this.
Shaun looked at the mother and children with gentle eyes.
He wanted to protect the woman and children for the rest of his life.
Once the food was served, Suzie tied her bib and began to dig in messily.
Lucas sat up with his small body, holding a knife and fork. He looked like a little gentleman.
Shaun was very pleased and kept clipping food for the children.
However, Lucas swept away the food every time and refused to eat, giving him the cold treatment.
Shaun said softly, “Lucas, it’s natural for you to hate me, but I won’t give up. Don’t worry. I won’t take you away from your mom. I just want to do my duty as a father.”
Lucas continued to eat as if he did not hear Shaun.
Nevertheless, Shaun did not give up. “You’re a boy. There are many things that your mommy can’t do with you. I can teach you to play basketball…”
“Uncle Wesley can do that too.” Lucas interrupted him.
Shaun smiled. “He’s not as good as me. The national basketball team once invited me to join their team, but I wasn’t interested.”
“You’re just boasting,” Lucas said bluntly.
“I’m not. You can watch me try after we eat. If I lose, I’ll call you dad in the future.” Shaun raised his handsome brows with a proud face.
Lucas kept quiet for a while.
Cate looked at them quietly. Since Shaun had found out about the children, she knew would not be able to get rid of that leech. Hence, all she could do now was take it one step at a time.
Shaun then said, “I can also teach you martial arts.
“My mom can too, and so can Uncle Logan.” Lucas suddenly said angrily, “Oh, right. You chopped off Uncle Logan’s finger.”
Shaun immediately regretted that he had brought up martial arts. However, he knew that there were some things he could not avoid. “You’re right. I’ll chop off one of my fingers to pay him back later.”
Lucas frowned. “Stop lying.”
“I could cut it now if I wasn’t afraid of scaring the people in the restaurant.”
Shaun said without hesitation, “Logan’s martial art isn’t as skillful as mine. Even your mom is no match for me either. If you don’t believe me, ask your mom.”
The father and son turned their attention to Cate, who had not spoken.
Cate glared at Shaun. She had practiced martial arts for three years, yet he said that she was no match for him. Was he trying to shame her?
Those beautiful eyes made Shaun’s mind wander slightly. “But there’s an aspect I’m no match for your mom.”
“What is it?” Lucas could not help but ask. Shaun coughed into his fist, his eyes ambiguous.
Only then did Cate understand, and her face heated up. She could not resist stepping on Shaun’s foot fiercely under the table.
How dare he act immodestly in front of the children.
It clearly hurt, but Shaun’s thin lips curled up sweetly. “That’s a secret between your mommy and me.”
Lucas looked at his flushed-faced mother and was confused.
In his memory, he had seldom seen his mommy like that. She looked pretty like a rose with the morning dew.
She was never like this when she was with Uncle Wesley either.
Lucas frowned as he was lost in thought.
Shaun continued, “Also, I can teach you how to swim.”
“I know how to swim too,” Lucas said disdainfully.
“Then, do you know freestyle, butterfly stroke, breaststroke, or the backstroke?” Shaun raised his brows. To him, those things were just child’s play. He did not expect that one day, he would be reduced to using these means to please his child. “I know all of them.”
Lucas pursed his lips in annoyance. He only knew the breaststroke. “Liar. How can one person know so much?”
“It’s because I’m athletic.” Shaun held his glass of water proudly.
“It’s no wonder you’re so simple -minded, ” Lucas muttered.
“Ahem.” Shaun choked on the water. Cate could not help but laugh.
“Also, I know the law,” Shaun added. “You shouldn’t underestimate law. This is a law-based society, so if we understand the law, we can deal with people who hurt you without using our fists.”
Lucas said faintly, “Really? If I learned about the law, the first person I would want to deal with is you.”
“But I’m the world’s top lawyer. Ordinary lawyers can’t be used to deal with me.” Shaun smiled faintly. “But if such a day comes, I can only congratulate you for outperforming the teacher. I’d be pleased.”
“What else do you know?” Lucas asked.
Shaun put down his class and said seriously, “When you go to school in the future, I can teach you math, chemistry, physics, biology. I know everything.”
“The teacher can teach me, and my mom can too,” Lucas argued.
“The teacher will only teach you the basics, and the teacher doesn’t know as much as me. As for your mom…” Shaun looked at Cate and laughed. “Ms. Cox, do you know what the chemical composition of water is?”
Cate was speechless.
Who would know such an obscure topic?
Shaun smiled and said to Lucas, “See? That’s the most simple and basic knowledge of chemistry, yet your mom doesn’t remember. In terms of learning, what do you think she can teach you?”
Lucas looked at his mother with a hint of disdain.
It was the first time Cate’s son looked at her with disdain, and she glared at Shaun with hatred.
It could prove himself to his son, but why did he have to step on her to do it? Was he trying to shame her?
Noticing Cate’s anger, Shaun quickly cleared his throat. He carefully put all the steak he had cut into Cate’s plate. “Of course, your mom can teach you how to draw. She’s a world-renowned designer, and her drawings are amazing. She can bring you to the park and teach you about the plants and animals…”
“That’s enough, Shaun. Shut your mouth.”
Cate rolled her eyes at him and ate two pieces of steak before she went to look for Suzie.
“You’ve offended Mommy,” Lucas concluded and put down his utensils. “I’m full.”
Then, he jumped out of his chair and went to look for his mommy and Suzie.
Shaun hurriedly followed them into the playground.
Cate was accompanying Suzie on the slide. However, Lucas quickly lost interest after a while and went to play with the building blocks instead.
