Shaun frowned. He felt like blaming the previous Shaun. “Maybe it’s because… the previous me wasn’t attentive enough. Actually, these things aren’t hard. There are a lot of tutorials online. It’s easy to learn by following those tutorials.”
Cate went silent upon hearing that.
Maybe that really was the reason. Besides, Shaun had to manage a huge company in the past. There were also people like Wesley and Mason preying on him. It was difficult for Shaun and Cate to have peaceful days back then.
“Eat first. I’m going to prepare lunch.” Shaun nudged her to go outside before he headed back into the kitchen.
Cate stumbled out of the kitchen. She was forced to sit at the dining table.
Cate’s feelings were complicated. “Shaun, didn’t my dad tell you yesterday? He doesn’t wish for us to be together…”
“He did, but it’s not your dad that I want to be with anyway. His words can’t affect me at all. Moreover, he has already gone to the company. The negative news regarding the fire that broke out at the company has affected his company greatly. He has no time to care about me at all. I reckon he has to work extra hours until late at night these days.”
Shaun was confident.
Cate touched her forehead. He really did know how to take advantage of the situation. However, it was true that Joel might not have the time to care about Shaun now.
“But I already told you last time—“
“You indeed said it clearly enough. It’s precisely because it’s too clear that I’ve come to understand my thoughts. ” Shaun bent over and went near her ear. He whispered, “I’ve already approached other women but I realize that you’re the only one that I want to have s*x with. What is love if this isn’t it?”
Cate’s face heated up from his flirtatious words.
She glared at Shaun. “You’re overthinking. All men want to sleep with pretty women as soon as they see one.”
“Cate, not all men are like that. Those who are controlled by their lower body are sex maniacs. I’m not. It’s only because I like you and I love you.” Shaun’s dark eyes were filled with affection. “You can reject me, but I have the right to pursue you. I didn’t pursue you before because I thought I didn’t have the right to do so. However, I think I’m qualified now.”
“Why do you think so?” Cate was puzzled.
“Firstly, I can protect you. Secondly, I won’t lose my memories again. I won’t let my memories be altered by anybody else too. Thirdly, I have ample time now. I can slowly pursue you.”
He held three fingers up and said everything confidently.
Cate was speechless. She could understand the first two reasons, but something was off with the third one. ” Shaun, you’re still young. You should have a job and a career. I think you should return to Lyons Corporation. It’s the fruit of your efforts, after all.”
“No, I’m not interested in having a career right now. I just want to be a good husband who does the laundry and cooking at home.”
Shaun gazed at Cate with his hands in his pockets. “By the way, do you have any clothes that I need to wash?”
“… Thank you, but I’ve already washed them.”
“You can just leave it in the future. Let me wash your clothes for you.” After Shaun spoke, he returned to the kitchen to cook lunch.
Cate had a headache.
She called Aunty Cally over. “After this when Shaun sends Suzie and Lucas to preschool, can you get the security not to let him back in?”
After a moment of silence, Aunty Cally said, “Miss, the security guard didn’t let him in. He climbed over the wall himself. After he came in, he kept helping me with various chores. He’s such a huge person that I can’t chase him out.”
Cate really had to hand it to Shaun.
The wall of her house that was three meters tall could not even block him out. What other ways could there possibly be?
“Forget it. I’ll just take it as there’s an extra helper in the house who’s providing his services for free. It’s a waste not to use him anyway.” Cate sighed. She could only think of it that way.
After having the cake and fruit juice, Cate rested for a while. Then, it was already lunchtime.
Shaun served the dishes—fish, chicken wings, and vegetable soup.
The dishes had bright colors, and the taste was not bad as well.
After Cate had her fill, she went upstairs and changed into a denim maxi skirt, pairing it with an almond -colored knitted sweater. She also put on makeup.
She had been in an irritable mood lately, so she had not dressed up in a long time.
She even wore a pair of earrings and a necklace that day. Her skin was fair, and her face was plump with collagen. Her features were stunning as well. After dressing up, she was so pretty that her looks could surpass even those celebrities on television.
When Cate went downstairs with her handbag, a gleam of amazement flashed through Shaun’s eyes.
He had always known that she was beautiful, but she was as pretty as a fairy after dressing up.
He did not know that she would be so pretty with earrings and a necklace. They accentuated her slender neck and collarbone, making them look so delicate and seductive.
With just a glance, he felt his body burning up.
Shaun quickly took a deep breath. He put his hands in his pockets without changing his expression. He stepped forward, and there was a hint of hoarseness in his voice. “Where are you going?”
Cate deliberately gave him an indifferent glance. “It’s none of your business.”
That sentence rendered Shaun speechless.
He quickly recalled that she said she was going to look for a new partner that morning.
¡®She didn’t doll herself up to go on a date with another man, right?’
When that thought flashed across his mind, Shaun was so irritated that he wanted to spit blood.
He finally managed to eliminate Wesley with much difficulty. He did not do it just so she could start a new relationship with another man.
“I’m not trying to boss you around but where are you going? I’ll drive you there, ” Shaun said gently a s he restrained the jealousy roiling in his heart with all his might.
“No need. I can drive myself. Don’t follow me.” Cate walked toward the garage as she said that.
Shaun narrowed his eyes. There was no way she could shake him off and go on a date with another man.
He followed after her in long strides.
Cate did not notice him. She was thinking about which car she should drive that day.
It seemed that she had not been flashy for a long time. Wesley had been arrested, so the weight on her chest was gone. She did not have to worry anymore.
Therefore, she chose a very ashy red Lamborghini.
However, just as she got in the car, a man got in the passenger seat beside her.
Cate’s face darkened instantly. “Shaun, why are you following me? Get down.”
“Cate, you’re so pretty today. I’m worried some rascals outside will be attracted by your beauty. I have to follow you and protect you.” Shaun smiled as he took his phone out. “By the way, you might not know this yet, but many people already know that you’re Sheryl’s daughter. Some netizens analyzed that your net worth is at least 6oo billion US dollars.”
600 billion… US dollars.
How many zeroes were there behind the number? Cate had never seen so much money in her whole life.
Cate felt speechless by the netizens’ claims. How bored must these netizens be?
Did they think they would not have to take responsibility after reporting a number?
Shaun continued saying, “Of course, I know that you definitely won’t salvage your mother-daughter relationship with Sheryl. The claims going around on the internet are fake. However, other people aren’t clear about this. They only know that your mom is rich. Maybe there’ll be some reckless people who want to kidnap you. Even Matthew was kidnaped before. That’s why it’s too dangerous for you to go out alone. You need bodyguards.”
After saying that, he took a pair of sunglasses out of nowhere. He was as handsome as those flirty playboys.
Cate tilted her head and looked at him with a fake smile. “Why do I feel like you’re more dangerous than those kidnappers? At least they’re only aiming for the money. You’ re even sleazier, aiming for my body.”
“Cate, you’re wrong there.” Shaun smiled and gave an innocent expression. “Only ugly people are sleazy. For handsome people like me, it’s called admiration.”
“Shaun, why have you become so talkative?” Cate rolled her eyes at him.
“I can’t help it because I’m pursuing you now. If I were to act cold and distant when I’m pursuing you, you’d surely kick me to the crematorium. ” Shaun told the truth.
Cate thought about it. He was right. If Shaun still showed his cool, bossy president attitude while pursuing her, she would surely kick him until he died.
After all, why would you be haughty when pursuing another person?
