Seeing how cool her son was, Heidi sighed in relief.
“Ryan, your dad is the prime minister, so our words and actions will be the model in Australia. As the prime minister’s son, you need to be careful with your words during his time in office.”
Heidi said helplessly, “You’re not young either. You should find time to go on a blind date. You must get along with other women apart from Mireya.”
“Mom, you’re exaggerating things. My workplace is filled with women. Plus, I don’t want to go on a blind date because those women will pester me after each session. It’s annoying.”
Ryan turned her down impatiently.
Heidi was speechless. “They only pester you because you’re brilliant.”
“That’s that.” Heidi was resolute. “You may go back and sleep now.”
With that, Ryan turned around and left. Hah. He was fine with going on a blind date.
However, he would not be interested in any of them.
Even so, he could not turn Heidi down, or she would suspect that he was interested in Mireya.
How annoying.
Which dumb*ss in the Snow family made his parents acknowledge Mireya as their goddaughter?
The next day, Mireya learned that Ryan would be going on a blind date.
Heidi took six to seven photos and asked Mireya to decide with her.
“Mireya, who do you think looks best?” Heidi was giddy from looking at them. “It took me a long while to pick these few photos.”
Mireya was speechless.
It took a long time to pick these six to seven candidates. This was probably how partner selection was done in ancient times.
She leaned forward and browsed through the photos on Heidi’s phone one by one. She had to admit that those women were all great beauties. Some were dignified, some were elegant, and some were pretty…
Tsk. If she were a man, she would be extremely jealous of Ryan for sure.
“Godmother, all of them are unique in their own ways. It depends on what kind of daughter-in-law you’re looking for and what kind of woman Ryan likes.” Mireya also could not pick one, and she said jokingly, “If I were a man, I’d accept them all.
Haha.”
Heidi was amused. “Although you’re not a man, you can accept a young hunk that you like considering your status now.”
“Huh?” Shocked, Mireya stammered, “I… I don’t think that’s a good idea… If this is exposed, it’ll affect the executive council’s reputation.”
“What’s wrong with it? Since men can get pretty young women even after they’re divorced, why can’t women do the same?” Heidi said with an open mind, “Your godfather and I went to visit the royal family of Country Y. The divorced Royal Princess of Country Y always has different boyfriends, and they’re all young and handsome. There have always been news reports about it, but no one has criticized Princess Royal for her behavior. In fact, many women admire her. Women these days are quite stressed, so they admire other women who can live in freedom.”
“Godmother, I didn’t know you were so open- minded,” Mireya teased.
Heidi said with a smile, “I’m not that old- fashioned. On the contrary, I’m always scrolling through Facebook to keep up with the times.
Having said that, women need to focus on their careers instead of dedicating their lives forever to relationships.”
Mireya agreed with her sentiments and nodded.” Godmother, I think Ryan likes chubby and busty women. I happened to hear him mention it the other day.”
“Well, let’s pick this one. She’s my old friend’s daughter, and she looks quite good. If he’s not happy with her, we’ll go with this…”
After a long discussion, the two of them finally decided on the date for Ryan.
A few days later, Mireya’s injury had recovered a fair bit. Although she had not fully recovered, she could at least walk.
In the morning, she drove to Freycatheli.
Due to her lengthy absence, Cate had taken charge of most of the company’s matters.
Once she entered the office and looked around, she noticed that the company was even better than when she was managing it. Besides, all the employees were working very hard.
When Mireya arrived at the president’s office upstairs, Cate was working on a laptop, while Shaun was giving her a shoulder massage behind her.
“Darling, how’s the strength?”
“Mm. Stop disturbing me. I’m thinking over an issue.”
Cate’s attitude was so perfunctory that she did not even lift her head.
Shaun was deeply hurt.
“Ahem. Am I interrupting you guys?” Mireya glanced into the door and teased them with a laugh.
Cate immediately looked up and said with delight, “Mireya, you’re here. Does your chest still hurt?”
“I feel much better.” Mireya nodded.
Shaun raised his attractive brows. “Since you’re feeling much better, hurry up and return to work. Otherwise, Cate will be occupied with work in the office all day and neglect her husband.”
Mireya did not know whether she should be laughing or crying at his grievance. Under his stare, she had no choice but to say reluctantly, ” I had a chat with the employees outside just now. Cate has clearly handled the company much better than I have, in terms of marketing and management, ever since she took over Mireyacatheli. I think I’ll hand my position over to Cate, and I can be the vice president-cum-manager of the research and development department. Cate, let’s work together. I’m sure we’ll be able to acquire Osher Corporation soon and become the largest cosmetic company in Australia.”
“What?” Shaun’s face instantly darkened. “No way. She’s not free. Given that she needs to manage both Hudson and Freycatheli, when will she have time for me? We’ve even decided to go on a vacation in the Maldives together next month.”
“Go ahead. After Cate leaves, I’ll do my best to look after the company. Perhaps we can have a video call remotely to talk about work.”
Mireya advised him earnestly, “Young Master Lyons, Cate is in the flower of her youth. She’s only in her twenties, the golden age for pursuing her career. You can’t expect her to dedicate her life to relationships. You must allow her to gain a sense of happiness in her relationship and a sense of achievement in her career. I think you should go back to work in Lyons Corporation as soon as possible. Otherwise, you’ll seem like a kept man when Cate surpasses you in her career.”
Shaun did not look at Mireya. Instead, his eyes rested on Cate. “Cate, what do you think?”
Mireya’s mouth twitched. “Cate, you know my ability. I can research products, but when it comes to management— “
Cate raised her hand and interrupted her. Then, she turned around and said to Shaun, ” Shaunny, we’ve enjoyed ourselves for a few months. We were quite happy at first, but it can be boring… if it happens every day. Now that Freycatheli has gained momentum, and this is my first time investing, I feel like expanding the business. Actually, I hope you can come back and work. In all honesty, considering that you’re always by my side, I’m afraid you’ll be bored of me before I get old.”
“How would I be bored of you? I think you’ll be the one feeling bored of me instead.” Shaun pointed to Mireya with a jealous expression. “Even she’s more important than me.”
Mireya chuckled and raised her brow. “Young Master Lyons, think about how I was by Cate’s side when you hurt her. Without me, Cate and her two kids might not have stayed the course. Men will abandon her, but I won’t.”
“Enough. You just had to stab me in the sore spot.” At the mention of his dark past, Shaun became edgy. “Fine, fine. I’ll give in. You guys carry on with your work. I’ll take my leave.”
“Hubby, let me see you off.”
Cate hooked her arm around his and walked him down.
In the elevator, she leaned her face on Shaun’s shoulder. “Don’t be upset. I’ve been keeping you company after work every day, haven’t I? Plus, Mireya has just given birth to her child and gotten a divorce. She needs to make money and look after her child since she doesn’t have a man to rely on. I understand that feeling, so I want to help her through this difficult period.”
“Cate, drop it. I remember what happened in the past. In fact, I’m quite thankful that Mireya was with you throughout that period.”
Shaun held her hand, and his eyes darkened.” I’ve just been feeling insecure since my memories have recovered. I’ve hurt you too much, and I’m worried that you’ll leave me. That’s why I want to spend more time with you and treat you better.”
“Darling, you lost your memory before this, but I didn’t. Since I’ve gotten back together with you again, it means that I’m willing to give you a chance.”
Cate tightened her hold on Shaun’s hand. She raised her head and smiled at him. “Shaun, let’s work hard together. I like you now and when I met you in Melbourne. You were very handsome back then. No matter a lawyer or president, you look very handsome and charming. Go back to where you belong. During the day, we’ll cope with our respective businesses. At night, I’ll spend time with you… in bed, alright?”
She whispered the last few words in his ear. Her breath on his ear was like a vixen’s.
Shaun gulped. “Cate…”
They happened to arrive on the first floor.
Shaun immediately pressed the close button. He lowered his head and planted a passionate kiss on her.
Cate stood on her tiptoes and draped her arms around his shoulders.
Only after a long kiss did Shaun let go of her. He said with a hoarse voice, “Cate, I don’t want to return to Lyons Corporation. I want to be a lawyer. “
“Huh?” Cate was momentarily stunned. “
