Chapter 747 What Day Is It Today

Shaun eyed Eve with his lips pursed and a cold expression. In a rather stiff tone, he scolded, "You go
to the night club every damn day. And you dress so disgracefully. I shouldn't have to tell you to be
aware of all the men around you!"

His comment about her clothing infuriated Eve. A frown overcame her face. Furious, she responded,
hissing, "What do you mean by that, Dad? What did you just say? I cannot believe you are so narrow
minded! It isn't strange that I go to night clubs. Perhaps you are the one who needs to adapt to the
modern world!"

Even though she was angry, she dared not meet her father's eyes, afraid that she might cross a line
and disrespect him.

"Humph! I'm your father. Who's going to look out for you if I don't?"

Eve glanced at her father's convulsed face momentarily. Seeing how angry he was, she decided not to
provoke him any further.

"I mean, just look at how much make-up you are wearing right now! Go out all you want, but you have
to learn to take care of yourself! Are you a child? Do I really need to explain these things to you?"
Shaun's eyes went up and down her legs. Her skirt was as short as a prostitute's. His nose flared up in
anger.

Eve's mother had died when she was very young. The girl had grown up without a mother's love. Back
then, Shaun remained very busy with work and seldom paid attention to her. It still hurt Eve that he
never even remembered her birthday.

Today was her twenty-sixth birthday. She went out with Jennifer and Bonnie to celebrate.



Most girls her age were already married, or at least had a boyfriend. Eve was neither in a relationship,
nor was she married.

At least she should have the freedom to enjoy time with her friends and vent out her bottled up
emotions. Inside this villa was where she felt the loneliest. Outside, these feelings of loneliness resided,
although temporarily.

What a poor girl! Nobody, not even her own father, had remembered her birthday. If she hadn't told her
friends, they'd never have found out.

Eve didn't think of herself as a vulnerable person most of the time. However, she did get sentimental
from time to time.

Eve was too hurt to tell her father it was her birthday.

She guessed he had forgotten, like he always did.

"Yes, Dad. You are right. I don't know how to take care of myself. No one has loved or cared for me
since mother died. Can you really judge me for it? Do you even know what day it is?" Eve shouted, at
once forgetting her decision to not tell him. She simply couldn't keep it in anymore.

Shaun was shocked at the volume of her voice. He didn't know what she was talking about. What day
was it? He only knew Nathan wanted to terminate all association with the Sus Bank.

Fred had paid a visit to him this afternoon.

Shaun had welcomed him quite eagerly, and he had asked his secretary to serve them with the best
tea they had. However, Fred hadn't taken even a single sip.

Instead, with narrow eyes, he told Shaun, "Mr. Su, please take care of your daughter and ask her to
consider the consequences of her actions. Mr. Jin says if Adrian's test results show nothing abnormal,



the cooperation with Sus Bank will continue smoothly. But if anything goes wrong, the cooperation will
be terminated. And... I'm afraid your daughter will also be in trouble..."

Fred's words had made Shaun frown. He was confused and wondered what Eve had done. But when
he gave it some more thought, he felt frightened, and his face went pale. Had Eve done something to
Nathan's son?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zou. I don't get you. What has Eve done?" Shaun had asked with a sheepish smile on
his face, despite the fact that his head was bursting with a terrible ache.

Fred chuckled in a sinister way. "You should ask her what she has done. To my knowledge, she's been
paying five million dollars to a person named Ouyang every month. What that money is being used for,
you should ask her in detail."

Shaun's eyes had widened. He fell deep into thought. He transferred twenty million to her account
every month for all her needs. It wasn't a big deal for him. Sometimes, Eve would buy something like a
watch or a necklace, which cost more than two million. He never asked her about how she spent her
money.

Shaun was aware that he hadn't given her enough love and care while she grew up. This was his way
of making up for it.

"Thanks for your message, Mr. Zou. I will speak to her immediately and make sure she doesn't cause
any trouble," Shaun said politely, forcing a smile.

Truth was, Shaun was a very sensible person. He was self-righteous and had a clear idea of what he
could and couldn't do. But Eve was different. She was much more self-conscious and unsure about
things. This was perhaps due to a lack of parental care.



Shaun could vaguely feel that Eve had deviated from the right track. Since she had moved out of the
house, she stayed out late every night in the company of a group dominated by men. He had never
tried to restrict her even after knowing some of her behavior was problematic. He had always wanted
her to have full freedom.

"Yes, I hope you can do the necessary things. Mr. Jin says since JS International and the Sus Bank
have collaborated for so many years, it would be a pity if there is a termination. He hopes that Miss Su
would correct her mistakes." Fred deliberately stressed on the last part: correct her mistakes.

"I'll handle it. Thank you for coming, Mr. Zou. I'll talk to her when I go home," Shaun said softly.

Fred pressed lips into a thin line and gazed at Shaun with his bright, narrow eyes. He wondered how
someone like Shaun could have a daughter like Eve.

Shaun had a commendable reputation in the industry as both a businessman and a person.

Nathan knew what the termination of the cooperation with the Sus Bank would mean: huge losses for
both parties. However, no matter how much money he had, it wasn't more important to him than his
own son.

"What day is it today?" asked Shaun in a calm tone, snapping back to the present. He was getting old,
and he couldn't really remember dates of anything anymore.

"Ha-ha! I knew you didn't remember!" Eve's delicate red lips curved into an awkward smile. On the
verge of tears, she looked at her father ironically.
