Best Revenge: Being My Ex-Boyfriend’s Aunt novel Chapter 1168

Only when Suzie was tired of playing did Catherine carry her out of the pool. She helped Suzie wipe her body and wrapped a towel around her from behind.

She turned around, only to meet Shaun’s deep-set eyes.

"Come on. Close your eyes."

He lowered his head and wiped the water off Catherine's neck and body.

This intimate gesture made Catherine feel so awkward that she tilted away. "You don't have to wipe anymore. I'm going to take a shower later."

"Okay. Bring this towel with you. It's cold at night.

Don't catch a cold."

Shaun nodded gently and watched Catherine leave with Suzie. Then, he turned around and met Lucas’ distracted gaze.

"Are you trying to make peace with Mommy?" Lucas’ lips twitched. "Forget it. I admit that you're quite capable, but Mommy has already married Uncle Wesley. I won't take your side."

“Lucas, let me teach you something," Shaun said seriously, "One must not give up easily."

Lucas rolled his eyes. "Not giving up easily and pestering someone relentlessly are two different things."

"When have I pestered her relentlessly?" Shaun raised his brows. "Have you seen your mommy acting like she’s annoyed at me?"

"Hasn’t she made it obvious enough?"

"No. I can only see that she's in a dilemma because she's afraid that she'll fall for me again.” 1

Shaun let out a sigh. "You won't understand these matters between adults. When you fall for a girl one day, you'll then understand how I feel. At this point, you still don't know what love is."

Lucas was speechless.

Shaun felt that his words had no impact on Lucas, considering that he was not even three years old. To Lucas, love was something incomprehensible. 1
