Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]
Catherine chuckled. Even the blood in her body felt… pumped up.
The night was going to be interesting.
After three years, the familiar people were all gathered in the same place.
Wesley raised his glass toward her from afar. Soon, she received a WhatsApp message from him: [I
know what you’re aiming for, so I didn’t approach you. But I’ll be watching out for you.]
Catherine’s heart warmed.
Liam, who wore a white suit, walked toward her gracefully and passed her a glass of wine. “I didn’t want
to come at first, but I immediately came when I heard that you’d be attending. It’s lively tonight.”
“It’s quite lively indeed. I like it very much.” Catherine took a sip of wine before the corners of her mouth
lifted into an attractive smile.
A gleam flashed across Liam’s eyes. All of a sudden, he sighed regretfully. “Had you not gotten married
to Shaun in the first place, I would’ve surely married you. If I were to woo you right now, the Hill family
members would definitely tell me off. No one would be able to accept two brothers marrying the same
woman.”
“Luckily, you didn’t woo me. I would’ve been pressured.”
“Why?”
“Because I have too many suitors.” Catherine glanced at the men who were staring at her from the sides.
“Look, there are so many guys who are trying to hit on me.”
“Tsk, it can’t be helped. You’re now the woman who has beauty, talent, and net worth in Australia.” Liam
extended his hand to her. “Are you interested in dancing with me? I want to be the most envied man
tonight. Do give me this pleasure.”
“Okay.”
Catherine put her hand on his wide palm, and both of them walked onto the dance floor.
They took the floor like a perfect couple. They instantly attracted many people’s envy and gossip, but
both of them ignored all of it and started a conversation instead.
“Say, why did you come today? To trash the party?”
Catherine rolled her eyes. “It’s Times Corporation’s gala. If I trash the party, I’ll be kicked out of this
community. I just want to sing a song and play the piano.”
“You know how to play the piano?” Liam coughed. “They invited Cindy to perform tonight. She’s a
professional.”
“That’s even better. I want to perform after her.” Catherine was determined. “I wrote a new song, and it
sounds pretty good. Can you think of a way to arrange it for me?”
Liam almost danced a step wrong. “My little sister, are you trying to provoke Cindy? It’s even newly
written. Do you think of yourself as a musician?”
“You don’t believe me?” Catherine glared at him. “I was the one who wrote Cindy’s famous songs. I was
playing Balakirev’s Islamey before Cindy had even learned how to play Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata.”
Liam had “what the f*ck” written on his face.
“It’s a pity that she has forgotten to be grateful. I must teach her that today.” Catherine lamented.
“Exactly what other skills do you have that I don’t know of?” Liam was speechless.
“I’m a treasure. My love life was too arduous before, and my brilliance was impeded by others. Now, it’s
my time to shine.”
Liam could not help but burst out laughing.
When Shaun and Sarah entered, they immediately saw Liam and Catherine in the middle of the dance
floor. They were dancing together like a couple who had a lot of chemistry.
One was as pretty as a princess, while the other was wearing a white suit like a prince.
Under the light, they talked and laughed. From time to time, Catherine would say something that made
Liam laugh out loud. She also had a charming and relaxed smile on her face.
That scene pricked Shaun’s heart badly.
At that moment, he had the urge to rush up and yank them both apart.
