Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1129 âLet me⦠think it over.â Catherineâs mind was in a mess. Actually, Wesley had a point there.
If she wanted to tell others that Lucas was her son, she had to find a legal father for him. With Shuanâs personality, she would not be able to steer clear of him her whole life if he found out that Lucas was his son.
âWhatâs there to consider about this?â
Disappointment clouded Wesleyâs face. âLucas is a very nice and sensible child. Although he doesnât say it, I know he feels upset whenever he canât freely be with his mom like the other kids. He just doesnât say it out loud because he doesnât want to put pressure on you.â
Catherine tightened her grip on the fork.
She knew what kind of child Lucas was, and his sensibility made her heart ache.
âUnless⦠youâre still undecided on being together with me, â Wesley said suddenly.
Catherine was stunned.
Was she still undecided? Had she not moved over already?
She was even mentally prepared to have sex with him, but he was the one who chose to live apart all along. Moreover, Shaun had been frequently appearing in her world these days. It made her very annoyed.
âWesley, you said it yourself that Lucas is sensible, so I have to ask Lucas for his opinion on this.â
Catherine found an excuse.
âOkay.â Wesley had no words to say. âDo you need me to go shopping with you in the evening? Do you have anything you want to buy? Youâve been married to me for so long, yet I havenât spent any money on you.â
âNo need. I have an important meeting to attend in the evening. â What Catherine said was the truth.
âAlright, then. Iâll just go back to my company and work extra hours too. My wife is a workaholic anyway.â
Wesley had said that to tease her, but Catherine felt increasingly guilty at those words.
That guilt overwhelmed her when she returned to her office and noticed Shaun was sleeping in her bedroom.
âShaun, who allowed you to fall asleep here? Go back.â Catherine pulled up Shaun angrily, but he did not budge. It was as if there was a pillar rooted behind his tall figure.
Shaun opened his eyes in a blur. âCathy, let me sleep for a while. I didnât have enough rest last night.â
âYou can return to your own home if you didnât have enough rest. Why do you have to be here?â
Catherine said while gritting her teeth.
âYour bed has your scent. It helps me sleep peacefully.â
Shaun even buried his head in her pillow and sniffed it as he spoke. âIt smells good.â
Catherineâs face flushed out of disgust at his shameless face. âShaun, Iâm begging you. Iâm a married woman. Your actions are causing great inconvenience to my marriage.â
âHow did I inconvenience you? I even hid in the cupboard for your sake when Wesley came in just now.
â Shaun looked toward her with dimmed eyes and said, âYou know I was often locked in the cupboard by my sitter when I was young. I have a trauma of cupboardsâ¦â
Catherine was taken aback. What he said was a fact.
For someone who was hurt in the cupboard before, entering the cupboard again required a lot of courage indeed.
However, looking at his annoying, handsome face, she did not want to give in to him. âYou were the one who came and looked for me? You brought it upon yourself.â
âYouâre right. For your sake, Iâm willing to bring anything upon myself.â
Shaun suddenly sat up and started unbuttoning his shirt with one hand.
Seeing his chest getting exposed inch by inch, Catherineâs scalp tingled. âShaun, you pervert. What are you trying to do?â
