Hadley was embarrassed and did not expect Shaun to be jealous. "I'm reporting the company's matters to Miss Jones. Miss Jones, it's already late, so I'll head home first."
After seeing Hadley leave in a rush, Catherine took the towel beside her and wiped the sweat off Shaun’s face. "Shaunny, you have to be polite to Assistant Young. He has done a lot for you and the Hills.”
"I'm not even close to him. Why is he doing so much for my sake?" Shaun found it baffling.
Catherine was at a loss for words. She said to him seriously, "Your last name is Hill. Actually, the Hills have a large company, but the company has been in crisis recently. Assistant Young is a very capable person. Many people have been trying to poach him, but he's loyal to the Hills. He decided to stay with us and assist me. If he leaves, I'll have a hard time."
Her words left Shaun feeling stunned.
After half a minute, he nodded violently. With a pout, h e said glumly, "I didn't mean that, but you didn't notice it when I shot a three-pointer just now."
"Three-pointer?" Catherine was astonished. "That’s amazing."
"Yeah. I’m amazing." Shaun looked up proudly.
"Mommy, Shaunny is amazing." Suzie ran toward Catherine and grumbled beside her ear, "Didn’t you say that he only has the mental age of a two-year-old? I thought I could bully him, but it turns out that he still plays basketball so well."
Amused, Catherine poked Suzie's head. "What a bully you are."
"No, I'm saying that he bullies me.” Suzie stamped her feet.
"You're just too lousy." Shaun glanced at Lucas gloatingly. "Brother Lucas is so-so. He told me earlier that he'd go easy, but he’s not that great. He's just slightly better than Suzie."
Lucas, who felt humiliated, was speechless.
