“Suit yourself. ” After Catherine took a mouthful of porridge, her stomach felt better. Then, she said in
annoyance, “I don’t know what you’re so angry about. At this age, you’re supposed to be more mature.
You’re not old either. Don’t you realize a lot of women look back at you when I go out with you?”
Shaun’s eyes lit up, and the corners of his lips curled up a little. After smiling for two seconds, he tried
to stifle it. “But I’m not a handsome young guy anymore. I’ve lost that youthful vigor. I’m fuddy-duddy
and boring, just like a sugar cane. The more it’s eaten, the less sweet it becomes.”
Catherine rubbed her forehead, speechless. “Did Rodney, that big mouth, say something to you?”
The grimness in Shaun’s eyes was apparent. “Miss Jones, did you have fun with the handsome young
guy last night? Did you think about your beloved Mr. Hill?”
Catherine nearly spat out the porridge in her mouth. She hurriedly took a few pieces of tissue and
covered her porridge-stained lips. She was laughing so hard that her shoulders shook.
“Is it funny?” Shaun silently fixed his eyes on her. “ Have you forgotten what you said the night before?
That you were fed up with my face?”
“Why are you so funny now?” Catherine’s belly hurt from laughing too much. After calming down, she
approached Shaun, cupped his handsome face, and scanned it. “Wow, what a handsome face. How
can I possibly be fed up with it? Look at your sword- shaped brows and tall nose. Also, your thin lips… ”
She purposely brushed her finger on it. “You’re really captivating when you kiss me. How would I be
interested in someone else? The handsome young guy is very childish compared to you. I prefer
mature and masculine men like you. Your body shape is also my type, especially when you take off
your clothes. You’re not too muscular, but you look fit…”
“Drop it.”
Despite his shamelessness, his face and ears were flushed red from her words.
This woman was so good at flirting. Not only was she a smooth talker, but her touch was also very flirty.
“ So, are you still mad?” Catherine smiled gently.
“I’m not mad. I just feel insecure. When I face you, I’m no longer as confident as I used to be. But if you
give me a kiss right now, I might feel better.”
Once Shaun finished speaking, he pulled her onto his thighs before lowering his head, about to kiss
her.
“Don’t. This is the Lynch family’s house.” Catherine was shocked. “Many people live here.”
“Hey, isn’t it too late to realize that many people live here?” Forrest’s voice suddenly rang from the side.
Embarrassed, Catherine promptly pushed Shaun away. She turned around, only to find Forrest
standing at the foot of the stairs. “F-Forrest, when did you come down?”
“Some time ago. I’ve been here since you said, ‘ You’re really captivating when you kiss me.”’ Forrest
calmly took a bowl of porridge and sat down. “Am I disturbing you guys?”
“…Nope.” Catherine felt so embarrassed that she wanted to die. She had never felt like this in front of
Forrest before.
She glowered at Shaun viciously, yet Shaun felt a lot better.
“I finally understand how you won over the wealthiest man in Australia back then.” Forrest let out a
discreet smile. “ Sadly, Freya hasn’t learned any of your skills even though she’s your best friend. You
can teach her next time so that she won’t be deceived by men time and time again.”
“Forrest, please stop.” Catherine used the bowl to block her face. “Shaunny, let me introduce him to
you. He’s Freya’s brother, Forrest Lynch.”
“Hi.” Shaun nodded at Forrest. He had heard Chase mention Lynch Corporation before too. It was
initially just an established company in Melbourne. However, Forrest took over the company afterward
and expanded it until it became one of the top 1oo companies in Australia.
