Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]
Catherine had a shower after returning to New Metropolis Park and scurried into the study with her
laptop.
Every department of her company had emailed her the sales data of real estate in various regions. She
was quickly distracted after scanning through the reports briefly. She could not resist searching up
Shaunarah Corporation online.
The results took her by great surprise.
Shaunarah Corporation was established less than five years ago.
However, its market value had already surpassed 200 billion dollars.
Besides, the largest profitable business in both Shaunarah Corporation and Hill Corporation was in
electronics projects.
Undoubtedly, Hill Corporation’s position in the industry was unshakable. Despite that, Shaunarah
Corporation managed to stand out from the crowd and controlled over a quarter of the profits in the
aforementioned industry.
In other words, Shaun had begun this plan in secret about five years ago.
Did he long expect that he would be abandoned by the Hill family?
Right this instant, she felt a shudder pass through her.
“Are you researching Shaunarah Corporation?”
Shaun’s voice rang behind her all of a sudden.
Startled, she shut the laptop quickly. A complicated feeling materialized in her heart upon seeing the man
behind her who had appeared out of nowhere.
“I’ve already seen the screen. Did Elle tell you about it?” He leaned against the desk elegantly.
“Yup. But only because I asked her about it, ” she said immediately for fear that he would blame the
bodyguard.
“It’s not a bad thing that you’re showing concern for your husband.” He bent over with a smile on his
face. “But you can ask me anything that you’re curious about instead of looking it up online.”
“…” She pursed her lips, unsure of what to reply.
He patted her on the head. “Do you think that I’m terrifying for secretly establishing Shaunarah
Corporation five years ago to go against Hill Corporation?”
“Not really? I understand the importance of preparing for a rainy day.”
“You’re quite young, so perhaps you don’t know that Hill Electronics didn’t use to be the corporation’s
most profitable business. It started out with its main focus in finance and did poorly in the electronics
industry. The financial crisis happened after I took over the corporation, hence I had no choice but to
strengthen its position in the electronics industry. But I’m only the president, after all. In other words, I’m
just another employee. I had to come up with a backup plan…”
He continued saying, “If I were to successfully inherit Hill Corporation, Shaunarah would continue to exist
in second place forever and no one would find out the real boss behind the company.”
“But you’re no longer the president of Hill Corporation. Do you plan to lead Shaunarah to surmount your
family business?” Catherine asked.
“The entire team working for Hill Corporation’s electronic experimental project has already resigned and
soon they’ll come to work for me in Shaunarah. Hill Corporation will soon be eliminated without the
microchip. The electronics industry changes rapidly with each passing day.”
The woman suddenly felt so stupid.
She thought he had given up Hill Corporation for her.
Honestly, she had also been stunned by the bold move.
Well, as it turned out, he already had a backup plan in place.
He would never be eliminated from the top of the hierarchy. Perhaps he might become even more
powerful in the future. When that happened, he would really be the richest man in the country without
being restrained by anyone else.
“Why are you telling me these? Aren’t you afraid that I might let the secret out?”
“No, you won’t, because you’re my wife.” He lifted her from the chair, sat himself down, and placed her
on his lap.
She lowered her gaze to the ground to hide the sarcasm in her eyes.
‘Wife?’
‘Forget it. The name Shaunarah belongs to you and another woman.
‘Shaun, don’t you feel the tiniest bit guilty when you say these words to me?’
“Shaunarah is a nice name. How did you come up with it?” she suddenly asked in a casual manner.
