Chapter 646


    Just as Catherine finished speaking, she saw a shadow looming over her.


    Shaun was ring at her with a hard expression, and his eyes were zing.


    “Who are you on the phone with? Joseph?”


    She even said the word ‘darling’ and gave a kiss to that person on the other end of the phone.


    When he thought about her being so intimate with a guy, he had the urge to strangle her.


    Catherine was shocked. She was talking to Suzie and Lucas. She could never let Shaun discover their


    existence.


    “What does it have to do with you?”


    Catherine took off her earphones in a hurry and wanted to hang up the call. However, she did not know


    that her frantic actions only made Shaun feel like she was trying to hide something. He snatched her


    phone angrily and put the call on speaker. “Joseph?”


    “Shaun…” Catherine’s heart was about to leap out of her throat. She hoped that Suzie and Lucas were


    quick-witted.


    “Uncle, who’s Joseph?” A naive, childish voice was heard from the phone.


    Shaun was taken aback. He never expected that it would be a little girl’s voice. Furthermore, that voice


    was speaking in baby talk. It could make people’s hearts go soft.


    However, why was Catherine so close with a kid?


    “I got the wrong person. Who are you? What is your rtionship with Catherine?” Shaun tried to soften


    his voice to avoid scaring the little girl.


    “Uncle, why are you talking to me as if you’re interrogating a criminal?” Suzie said unhappily.


    “…” Shaun had a headache. He had lived up till now but did not know how tomunicate with kids at


    all.


    “Shaun, give my phone back to me.” Catherine stretched her hand to snatch it. Shaun immediately held


    the phone with his other hand and lifted it high.


    “Uncle, why did you steal Aunty Cathy’s phone?” Suzie said in anger.


    “Aunty?” Shaun was stunned. For some reason, it felt as if a weight was lifted off his chest.


    What a relief. He thought Catherine already had a child with another man.


    “That’s right. Did you think she’s my mom? Though I really hope she’s my mom too.” Suzie started crying


    after she said that.


    The corner of Catherine’s lips twitched. She was so surprised earlier that she forgot even though Suzie


    was azy bum, she was quick-witted and a little drama queen.


    Shaun usually hated it a lot when kids cried, but somehow, he went soft-hearted when the little girl on the


    phone cried. “You don’t have a mom?”


    “It’s not that. My mom is very fierce to me. She always scolds me and gets furious at me. She doesn’t


    even give me choctes. Aunty Cathy is different. She always buys me lots of choctes. I like her a lot.


    But after she went to Australia, no one buys me chocte anymore. Boo-hoo…”


    “…”


    Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    Were kids all like that nowadays? Shaun was starting to doubt life.


    Catherine was speechless. Was Suzie implying to her to send choctes over? That little kid was really


    intelligent.


    “Little kid, eating too much chocte is bad for your teeth,” Shaun said gently.


    “My teeth are still very well. Uncle, what rtionship do you have with Aunty Cathy? Are you pursuing


    her?” Suzie asked nosily.


    “…”


    Shaun could not find any words to reply to her. It seemed like the conversation could not go on anymore.


    “Why aren’t you answering my question?” Suzie said childishly, “Are you just taking her in as your


    mistress and not pursuing her?”


    “… Little kid, who taught you those words? You’re too young. You don’t understand the adult’s world.”


    Shaun’s temples throbbed. He quickly hung up the call. This was the first time he felt exhausted from


    talking to a kid.


    Catherine took back her phone. Shaun said with a bad temper, “Whose kid is that? How did her parents


    educate her? Her upbringing is a mess.”
