“Enough. Let’s get back to business, alright?’
Cate directly stood up and raised her hand to calm everyone. “Well, if we’re still not doing well with the houses, we can consider reducing the prices. Although we might earn less that way, I plan to put together some funds and have Hudson venture into the tourism industry in the future.”
“Tourism industry? Sounds great.”
A manager approved of her idea, saying, ” Chairwoman Cox, if you’re planning to develop the tourism industry, I’m sure you can attract many people’s attention considering your impressive reputation at this point.”
“Yup. Regardless of the unfavorable news, I believe you’ll soon be able to expose Wesley’s true colors. “
“You can attend a variety show and promote our company when the time comes.”
“You can also promote it in your autobiographical romance novel.”
“It’ll surely be a hit.”
Cate did not know what else to say.
She felt disinclined to carry on with the meeting, given that the executives in this room were completely seeing eye to eye with her.
There was nobody singing a different tune, was there?
She kind of missed how those shareholders had kept turning against her back then.
When Cate finally got back to her office, she was so exhausted that she felt as if she had just participated in a large press conference. “chairwoman Cox, why are you choosing to develop the tourism industry all of a sudden? I’ve never heard you mention it. When did you decide on it?” At last, General Manager Wolfe raised a proper question.
Cate sipped on her coffee. “I decided on it when I was on my way here.”
General Manager Wolfe went quiet.
Cate’s random yet determined behavior left him speechless.
“I always had this idea, but I just hadn’t made up my mind. This morning, I heard my dad recounting my mom’s past. I want to be resolute like my mom.” Cate’s eyes narrowed. She wanted to honor Sheryl and realize her unfulfilled ambitions.
General Manager Wolfe raised his thumb. “You’re truly brilliant and resolute. I’m sure Hudson will rise to international heights under your leadership. “Don’t say that.” Cate’s face darkened.” General Manager Wolfe, what happened to you guys? All of you are like brown nosers now.”
“No, Chairwoman Cox. You’re currently a well- known figure in Australia. Everyone knows your name, and the public has been paying attention to everything you do,” General Manager Wolfe replied with a smile.
Cate sighed, feeling mentally exhausted. ” Enough. I understand. Do keep an eye on our company’s employees because Charlie’s spy is definitely among us. When Shaun came to my office to look for me last time, Charlie arrived right after him.”
“Alright.” When General Manager Wolfe walked to the door, he could not help looking back with anticipation. “Chairwoman Cox, I’ll be waiting for your big news at six o’clock.” Cate was speechless.
If she did not announce anything later, was she going to be beaten to death on the streets?”
At 6:00 p.m., Cate turned on her phone to have a look, only to find herself having more than 30 million followers.
She shared a video of Wesley and Regina after sorting it out. Compared to the one shared earlier, this video clearly showed Wesley’s perverted character.
Of course, she wrote a caption as well. [Some people might call me horrible for planting a mini camera in my partner’s office, but you guys haven’t seen people who are more horrible than me. From the moment I started living with Wesley, there have been surveillance cameras at every corner of his villa, including the living room, bedroom, dining room, and corridors. I learned this trick from him. I just wanted to have a better understanding of his real character. This goes to show that one can’t necessarily tell whether a person is a hypocrite even after a long time.]
Sure enough, it triggered a heated discussion again after the netizens saw the post.
[After watching the video, I don’t know what to say anymore. I used to think of Wesley as a gentleman!]
[I think Wesley might’ve suppressed his feelings for too long, that’s why he turned into a pervert. Did you guys see his facial expression? He looked ferocious.]
[Thankfully, the video is pixelated. Otherwise, it would’ve filled me with total disgust.]
[Is he really in love with Cate? If he is, why is he fooling around with his secretary? He doesn’t know his place at all.]
[My God! Is this for real? Their house is full of surveillance cameras?! Did he marry his wife or is he keeping an eye on a criminal?]
[All of a sudden, I sympathize with Cate. How unfortunate of her to have Wesley fall for her.]
[Ah, I’d rather look at Shaun. Unlike the hypocritical Wesley, at least Shaun is openly scummy.]
When Cate was reading the netizens’ comments, Shaun called her. “Come down. I’m downstairs.”
Ten minutes later, she got into Shaun’s car.
Shaun would turn around and look at her with a frown from time to time.
“Can you stay focused while driving? Otherwise, I’ll be too scared to get into your car next time,” Cate reminded him in a huff.
Shaun promptly looked at the front of the road seriously. However, his brows had not relaxed. “Is it true that Wesley’s villa is full of surveillance cameras?”
“Mm.”
“Could he have set one up in the bathroom as well?” Shaun suddenly asked.
” .. No.” Cate’s pretty face fell. ” Is that why you kept staring at me just now?”
“Ahem. Just in case he threatens you with those photos. ” Shaun kept a somber expression. “Wesley is such a pervert. When did you become aware of it? How could you continue living with him for so long?”
” Soon after Nathan passed away.” Cate gazed impassively out of the window.
Shaun’s eyes flashed with misery. He stretched out one hand to hold her hand and squeezed it gently.
” I can take over the role of searching for evidence. I don’t want you to suffer so much.”
“Can you stop… groping me?” Cate lifted her hand that was held in his palm, her eyes looking helpless.
“Cate, don’t get me wrong.” Shaun blinked innocently. “I was afraid that you were cold, so I just wanted to warm your hand.”
His shameless behavior made the corners of Cate’s mouth twitch. ” It’s 25 degrees Celsius today.”
“No, it’s freezing. If you don’t believe me, let’s see.” As Shaun was speaking, he turned on the air conditioner in his car and set it at 16 degrees Celcius.
Since it was a superb car, the air conditioner immediately buzzed. The cool air blew on her, nearly causing her to have goosebumps.
Cate completely lost to him.
She swiftly turned off the air conditioner before glaring at him fiercely. “Childish.”
Shaun laughed, his thin lips curling into a sweet smile. There seemed to be stars shining in his deep- set eyes. He emanated an attractive, charming aura that could make one melt.
Cate’s heart skipped a beat, and she instantly looked away.
Deep down, she thought, ¡®Damn it. It’s all this alluring man’s doing.’
It was Cate’s first time officially stepping into the Lyons household.
This house might not be as outstanding and luxurious as the previous Lyons Manor, but the plants in this courtyard were neatly trimmed. It was also filled with children’s laughter, which made it seem harmonious.
The moment Cate got out of the car, Suzie and Lucas happily ran to her.
“Mommy, I miss you so much! ” The two little kids hugged her and rubbed themselves against her arms.
Cate would be swelling with joy if Shaun was not a wet blanket who went over out of the blue…
“I miss you too, darlings.” Shaun wrapped his arms around the three of them from behind while resting his chin on the top of Cate’s head.
“Shaun, what are you doing?” He was hugging her in front of the children in the courtyard, which made her face flush with anger.
After all, they were divorced. With so many people in the Lyons household, it was going to be embarrassing if someone spotted them like this.
“Didn’t you hear what I just said?” Shaun hugged the children with one hand on their backs and wrapped his other hand around Cate’s waist. ” I said I miss my darlings. Why can’t I hug my darlings? You’re not the only one who can do this to them.”
“You can, but you’re supposed to wait until I finish hugging them first. Are you hugging them or… me?” Cate warned him with a sullen, hoarse voice.
“I’m hugging the three of you because all of you are my darlings.” Shaun grinned and kissed Cate on the forehead.
Cate was at a loss for words.
