"Shaun, what do you want? Don’t you have to go home t o Sarah at this time of the night?”
"Don't you think I want that too? But after that phone call you made this morning... Catherine, you're such a scheming woman. You embarrassed Sarah in front of everyone and you even made her cry."
Shaun had been upset since that phone call, especially after one of the shareholders called to inform him that Sarah had run out of the meeting in tears after being humiliated by Catherine. He really wished to strangle this woman to death.
"Oh, you feel sorry for her?" Catherine crossed her arms in front of her chest. "I didn't make you say those words, though."
"You... Don't think I'm afraid simply because you're holding our marriage certificate." His dark eyes narrowed. "The last person who provoked me has disappeared from this world.”
"Are you talking about Charity?" she said out of the blue.
He looked stunned, but he quickly smoothed away the surprise. "She deserved it for trying to escape prison b y jumping into the ocean. It's only natural that the
fishes would devour her.”
Catherine turned around quietly so that Shaun would not see the murderous intent in her eyes.
She knew these people would not feel guilty about their actions. As it turned out, she was right.
'Shaun Hill, remember how indifferent you are about this and I'll make sure you suffer in the future.'
"Hey, do you hear me?"
Frustrated by her silence, he grabbed her by the shoulders. "I want us to be divorced by tomorrow."
"Not happening."
Enraged, he kicked over the trash can. "Catherine, don’t force me."
"Sure, let me see what you're capable of." An enigmatic smile flashed across her face.
His handsome face fell.
After working for the entire day, all Catherine wanted t o do now was to take a long shower and have a video call with her two darlings who were in the United States. However, she could not do so with this man pestering her. "Can you leave? I'm going to take a shower."
"I’ll leave after you agree to sign the divorce papers."
He plopped himself on the couch and crossed his legs. This man was known for his elegant appearance, yet right this moment, he was behaving like a prick. "Are you after money? I'll give you a billion dollars and that should be enough expenses for the rest of your life. This is the best I can do. You're only worth this much, after all.”
"You can sit here all night if that’s what you want.” She walked into the bedroom.
His face fell. Immediately, he sprung up to his feet and ran after the woman. Coincidentally, he saw her retrieving sexy black underwear from the closet.
Something flashed across his eyes. "Catherine, what's that for? Are you trying to seduce me?"
She waved it in front of his eyes. "Brother, do you want to inspect it? It's old."
"Is this what you normally wear?" He felt annoyed for n o reason. "Who are you wearing them for?"
"Whoever that I like. It's none of your business. A woman should be prepared at all times." She picked out another thin black bralette with lace.
He snatched it from her hand and tore it apart out of instinct.
Was she trying to cheat on him? Dream on.
