Catherine discovered Shaun was sleeping soundly on the massive bed. However, Shelley was lying right next to him with their hands held tightly together.
Shelley sprung up from the bed upon hearing the commotion. An uneasy look flashed across her face when she saw the woman. "Young Madam, please don't misunderstand..."
Catherine immediately rushed forward to slap the other woman across the face. "I’ve noticed something wrong about you since day one. I hired you as a nurse, and the job doesn't include sleeping with him on our bed."
"I didn't," Shelley said helplessly.
"You didn't do that?" Catherine was so furious that she lost control of herself. "I've asked you to scramble off yesterday, yet here you are today. Did you really think you're the lady of this house? Did your parents not teach you manners? Do you know what shame is?"
"You're so loud."
The man suddenly turned around and sat up from the bed, looking exhausted. Coincidentally, Shelley's pale face was tear-streaked, and there was a handprint on her cheek. On the other hand, Catherine’s face was
screaming rage. It was evident that she had slapped the other woman.
"Catherine, what are you doing?"
Shaun stared at her angrily. "Look at you, lashing out your anger at someone else as soon as you get home. Have I been spoiling you too much?"
Catherine was shocked.
According to that logic, she had to turn a blind eye to seeing another woman lying in the same bed with her husband, holding hands?
He had no idea how much courage it took her to walk home after learning about the truth.
She was thinking about his illness.
With that, she decided to overcome this obstacle with him despite the throbbing pain in her heart. They could talk things out once this had passed.
As it turned out, her thoughtfulness was not necessary.
"Why is she here?" She pointed at Shelley and interrogated him grudgingly. "Didn't you say you dismissed her yesterday?"
"I can dismiss or rehire her anytime I want."
Shaun’s eyes were blood-red. He had dismissed Shelley at her wish, but what about her? She went on a n ice cream date with Wesley behind his back. Did she think about his feelings when she was being intimate with another man in public?
