Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]
Five days later.
Shaun walked out of the judicial department with both his hands shoved in the pockets of his trousers.
After being locked up for a few days, he now had a crew cut, but it did not ruin his attractiveness.
On the contrary, his attractive facial features became more prominent. It made him look even more
arrogant and intimidating.
“It must’ve been a tough few days for you, Eldest Young Master.” Hadley went to him excitedly.
Rodney thumped his chest. “Motherf*cker. I thought I’d never get to drink with you anymore.”
“All the families in Canberra are trying to convict me. They’ve put in quite a lot of effort, but it’s not easy
to defeat me.” Shaun then glanced around. Aside from his bodyguards and buddies, the figure he had
longed to see was not there.
“Where’s Catherine?” He furrowed his brows. Did the heartless woman seize this opportunity to run
away?
Everyone fell silent while Hadley lowered his head.
“Tell me.” Shaun’s voice hardened, and it was filled with rage.
After a while, Chester coughed and said helplessly, “The Hills took Catherine away the day you were
arrested for investigation.”
Shaun pulled Hadley toward himself in a fit of fury. “Didn’t I ask you to get someone to look after her?
And look how it turned out. Where’s Elle? Where the hell did she go?”
“Sorry, Eldest Young Master.” Hadley gritted his teeth and said guiltily, “Master Lowry betrayed you and
knocked Elle unconscious. Then, the housekeeper took Catherine away.”
“Ian Lowry?” Shaun narrowed his eyes. He did not expect this.
“Yes.”
“How many days has it been?” Shaun asked.
“Five days,” Hadley replied cautiously. “But I’ve asked someone to monitor the manor’s movements. It
seems that Miss Jones hasn’t been taken elsewhere.”
“If she hasn’t been taken elsewhere, I’m sure she’s locked in the manor’s cellar.” Shaun tugged Hadley
furiously. “And you just leave her locked there? Why didn’t you get someone to save her?”
Unable to tolerate it anymore, Rodney said, “These days, we’re all trying to deal with the influential
families in Canberra while thinking of ways to save you. Besides, Hadley is just your subordinate. He
doesn’t have the guts to barge into the Hill family’s manor. You do know how smart Old Master Hill is,
don’t you?”
Chester nodded and spoke as well, “Shaun, if you’re planning to save Catherine, you need to brace
yourself to go against Old Master Hill.”
“I must save my woman.” Shaun strode toward his sports car. Though instead of pulling the car door
open, he took a gun from the trunk.
Everyone was shocked, but Chester frowned. “Shaun, are you planning to enter the manor with a gun?”
“You’re insane. Is the woman worth all this?” Rodney yelled at Shaun in exasperation, “You’ve been
boycotted by all the noble families in Canberra. If you’re going to offend the Hill family as well, the
consequences will be disastrous.”
Chase, who had been silent, suddenly said, “I’m on your side, Shaun.”
“Chase, don’t jump in for fun, okay?” Anger began to well up inside Rodney.
“Rodney, I’m sure you wouldn’t have said that if it was Sarah,” Chase said bluntly.
Rodney’s face froze. “Sarah is different. She grew up with us, but Shaun and Catherine have only known
each other for a short while.”
“You guys don’t have to say anything else. I didn’t manage to protect Catherine last time, so I have to
save her this time.” Shaun turned his head around and ordered Hadley, “Get all the members of Liona to
head to the Hill family’s manor. I want that place surrounded.”
Then, he got into the car and dashed out.
Chester watched Shaun leave with a complicated gaze. He then took out his phone to call his assistant.
“Get the Chesterton members to head to the Hill family’s manor right now to back Shaun up.”
“Chester, are you going crazy as well?” Rodney was pissed.
“Rodney, it’s worth putting out all the stops to help our buddy.” Chester shrugged. “It’s no big deal if you
want to help.”
