"So you want to bring Shelley over and have two women serve the same husband?” Catherine mocked, " It’s not like it hasn't happened before among Canberra's influential upper class where the legal wife and the mistress coexist in the same house.”
Shaun stood up immediately after hearing her sarcastic words. His slender figure was like a model's, but his eyes were bloodshot. "I had Shelley leave already. Aunty Yasmine told me that you hit me that night because I was lying on the bed and holding Shelley’s hand. I'm sorry that I misunderstood you. I'll apologize to you.
"The thing about Sarah Wonderland happened a long time ago. I didn't know the fireworks event at 9.20 p.m. every Friday was still ongoing. It had always been the theme park’s general manager who managed the event. He said that the fireworks had become a tourist attraction, but I told him to cancel it.
"I hadn't met you yet when I named Shaunarah Corporation. However, I'll make it so that Hill Corporation Electronics and Shaunarah Corporation merge as soon as possible. After that, there'll be no more Shaunarah Corporation in Australia.”
Shaun moved toward Catherine step by step, his gaze
filled with affection. "Cathy, come back. I can't be without you."
He lowered his head and kissed her lips affectionately.
Catherine became absent-minded at that moment.
There was no doubt that this man's looks, status, and pleasant voice could easily charm a woman.
However, when his breath came near, Catherine returned to her senses and took a few steps back. She looked at him cautiously. "You've heard of the story ' The Boy Who Cried Wolf' right? You've said many nice words to me before as well, but how did you treat me? When Shelley looked aggrieved, you thought I was bullying her. All of your friends think of me as a bad person who's jealous and green with envy. I've had enough.
"There was the incident with Thomas too. You knew h e was rotten to the core, yet you helped him again and again. In the end, Hugh came to hurt me with a knife. That caused Wesley to lose a kidney and I had to shoulder the guilt. Why should I?"
Shaun squinted his eyes. "So you think that things are unfair for Wesley?"
"Shouldn't I?" Catherine laughed. "If it weren't for Wesley, I'd be dead. I would’ve died because of your exgirlfriend's brother."
She said coldly and went upstairs.
Infuriated by him, she locked the door and went into the shower to bathe.
After coming out of the shower, she saw the man who was supposed to be outside lying on her bed. He was sleeping soundly while hugging her pillow and covering himself with her blanket.
She was about to go crazy. How on earth did that man manage to come in?
