“Yeah, ” Shaun answered in a low voice.
Chester glanced at his legs with a vague smile. ” True love is pretty amazing. She’s willing to accept even a man like you.”
“Are you envious of me or deriding me?” Shaun gritted his teeth.
“Half of each, ” Chester chuckled and told the truth. Shaun sneered and gave him the death glare.
“Fine, fine. Don’t say that I don’t care about you. This is a gift for you.” Chester looked around before taking something out of his pocket.
Shaun curiously reached out to take it. After taking it, his expression instantly changed. “Chester Jewell, are you seeking death?”
“No need to thank me.” Chester winked at him mischievously. “Sometimes, women are the same as men. If you leave her waiting for too long, she might regret it and not want you anymore.”
“Don’t compare her with those women you used to Shaun stood there stiffly and gritted his teeth.
“Whatever. I’ve given it to you, so it’s up to you if you want to keep it or not.” Chester shrugged. ” Let’s go visit Rodney. He’s too pitiful. No one has come to see him these last two days.”
After all, they were practically brothers. Even though they had fought, Shaun still thought of Rodney as his friend.
When they reached Rodney’s ward, they pushed open the door to see Rodney reaching for the bedpan under the bed in pain. However, no one was helping him, so he could not reach it.
“Where’s the nurse?” Chester helped him.
“She went out to take a call. Besides, she’s already so old, so I don’t want her to help me.” Rodney turned his head to the side. His expression turned unpleasant when he saw Shaun standing there. ” Why are you here?”
“To see you make a fool of yourself. ” Shaun’s thin lips seem to spit out poisonous words. “Where’s Sarah? Why don’t you let her take care of you? A simple, kind, and lovely girl like her shouldn’t have the heart to ignore you while you’re injured, right?”
Rodney’s pale face instantly became paler. “Shaun Lyons, enough. You’re here to laugh at me, aren’t you?”
“Yeah.” Shaun nodded.
Rodney almost wanted to vomit out blood. “Get out. I’m cutting ties with you.”
Shaun said faintly, “Haven’t we already cut ties? Because of Sarah.”
Rodney’s face became even more uncomfortable at those words.
For a woman like Sarah, he lost his family, his baby, and his best friend.
Damn it! Shaun was just here to make things worse.
“Alright, stop provoking him. He’s not feeling well either.”
Chester saw Rodney’s discouraged and depressed appearance and helped him out. “Besides, you were tricked by Sarah for more than ten years.
Fortunately, Rodney hasn’t spent any money on Sarah.”
Shaun’s cold eyes swept over. Was Chester helping him or standing with Rodney?
Chester smiled and shrugged.
Rodney suddenly looked up and said emotionally, ” Chester, your words have comforted me. Even though my feelings and heart were deceived, at least I still have my money. These days, I couldn’t figure it out and felt that it was meaningless to continue living. But now I suddenly feel that I’m lucky compared to some people. I should be satisfied.”
“It’s good that you think that way.” Chester sighed.
“If we really think about it, the three of us were fools. We were played like fiddles by Sarah.”
“Yeah.” Rodney looked down bitterly. “To her, I’m just a backup guy. Tell me, am I… very useless? I feel like Sarah looks down on me.”
“Of course, she looks down on you?” Shaun sneered, “She’s vain and loves power. How much do you think she liked me before? Also… what you’ve seen of Sarah is just the tip of the iceberg.”
“What does that mean?” Rodney was a little puzzled.
Shaun looked at him. “Cate told me she sent someone to track Lucifer before and they saw Lucifer being assassinated by the people from Neah Bay with their own eyes. The Neah Bay assassins in the capital only listen to the Campos family and Wesley, but they don’t know Lucifer at all. Why did they kill him? It’s very simple. The one who wanted to kill Lucifer was Sarah. Sarah definitely has some relations with the Campos family or Wesley.”
Rodney was stupefied. “But… But Sarah said she was threatened by Lucifer and his death had nothing to do with her.”
“You still believe what she says?” Shaun said with a mocking expression.
Rodney’s heart sank.
Of course, he did not believe it. The thought that Sarah might be connected to the Campos family or Wesley gave him the creeps.
After all, Mason had deliberately stolen Lyons Corporation’s microchip data, while Wesley’s ugly colors were recently exposed.
Those people were sc*mbags with no moral boundaries.
Shaun reminded faintly, “If Sarah’s backer abandons her one day and you regain an important position in the Snow family, Sarah will probably come back to you. You had best have some awareness and stay away from that woman. If you can’t do that, then don’t go after Mireya.”
Rodney muttered, “I’m not a fool…” “You are a fool, ” Shaun said firmly.
Rodney was so angry that his bottom hurt again. ” Shaun Lyons, will you die if you don’t provoke me?!”
Shaun’s expression remained unchanged. “Mireya is Cate’s good friend. It wasn’t easy for me to get back together with Cate, so I don’t want your matter with Mireya to affect my relationship with Cate. “
“Huh? You guys got back together?” Rodney was shocked.
“Yeah.” Shaun narrowed his eyes. “I hope that you’ll be more polite to Cate. She doesn’t owe you anything, nor does she owe Sarah anything. I don’t have to be responsible for Sarah either. In the past, I never helped Cate when you targeted her, which caused the distance between us to grow. That was m y greatest mistake. If there’s a next time, I’ll beat you up directly.”
Rodney almost spat out blood. “Are you here to visit a patient or threaten me? Who’s the one who has known you longer? Haven’t you heard the saying ¡®bros before h*es’?”
“I used to choose my friends in the past. As a result, my children lived their lives without a father. I almost lost two lovely children and a perfect family. I won’t let that happen in the future.”
Shaun paused and changed the topic. “Also… Cate is super smart, calm, and wise. She knows how to identify b*tches. She noticed many things before us and has been working in the business world for many years. Of course, I should listen to her words. Facts have proved that I was previously deceived by others because I didn’t listen to my wife’s words.”
Rodney and Chester immediately felt exasperated.
“Shaun, are you deliberately showing off your woman?”
This time, Chester also could not hold back and spoke.
“Did I say anything wrong?” Shaun asked sharply. ” If both of you had been calm and wise enough, why did you say Sarah was good? In the end, you made me treat a piece of trash like she was a treasure.
Sometimes, it’s good to have a sensible person around me to pull me back to reality.
“As for you, Chester, I’ve wanted to say this for a long time. How could you choose to marry Cindy? Are you mad? She’s a two-faced woman. Have you forgotten what Chase said about her?”
Chester rubbed his forehead. “You’ve never cared about Cindy and me before. Did you take the wrong meds today?”
Shaun suddenly said, “It’s because Cate said that Cindy had thrown rocks at her while she was down. I didn’t believe her before, but I believe everything she says now. A woman like Cindy isn’t worthy of you.”
A touch of darkness flashed across Chester’s handsome face. After a moment, he let out a low chuckle. “You’re right. Cindy isn’t worthy of me. So what kind of woman is?”
Shaun frowned. ” In marriage and love, status and identity are secondary. What’s most important is if there’s love and affection…”
Chester shook his head and smiled. “I’m not interested in love, nor do I want to learn about love. However, people of our status will have to get married sooner or later. We need to have children to carry on the family line. Frankly speaking, it doesn’t matter if Cindy is a good woman or not.
Besides, even without Cindy, there’ll always be another Cindy Turner down the line. Since I was young, which woman hasn’t approached me with ulterior motives?”
Shaun fell silent.
Rodney could not help but mutter, “People not in the know would think that you suffered some emotional trauma, Chester. It’s like you were hurt as much as I was this time.”
“You think too much. ” Chester snorted. “I don’t know how to love and have never fallen in love with anyone before.”
“Is that so?” Shaun tugged on his lips and said thoughtfully, “Loving someone is an instinct. No one would lose this instinct without a reason.”
Rodney was startled. “Chester, did you get hurt before?”
“You think too much.” Chester looked at them coldly. ” I’ve talked to you guys long enough. I’m going back to work.”
“I have to go find Cate.” Shaun looked at the time and smiled affectionately. ” If I make her wait too long, maybe she’ll lose her temper with me again.” Rodney was depressed. “Will you die if you don’t act all loving?”
