Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]
Catherine woke up the next day with a slightly upset stomach due to the few pints of beer she had last
night.
When she got up and washed her face, she received a call from Shaun. His voice was low. “Where did
you go last night?”
“I had something to do with a friend…”
“Is that something drinking at a bar with him?” Shaun gritted his teeth and said gloomily, “Go read the
news about yourself, Ms. Jones. I’ll reach your place in ten minutes. You better give me an
explanation.”
Then, he hung up.
Catherine was shocked and used her phone to search for her news. The latest one was: [Yule
Corporation’s heir talking and laughing with her mysterious boyfriend, behaving intimately.]
The photo was of Logan and blurred figures of hers in the bar.
She narrowed her eyes and rubbed her brows. Fortunately, Logan’s face was not exposed, otherwise,
it would be troublesome. After all, Logan was the only assistant she could trust completely.
These reporters really had nothing better to do. She was not some kind of public figure.
It seemed like she had to give them a good beating.
She had just changed her clothes when someone knocked on the door violently.
When she opened the door, Shaun’s handsome and cold face brought upon an eerie chill.
“Who was that man?” He was going crazy with anger. He cared about her so much and held her all the
time, but she went behind his back to go to a bar with another man. What was even worse was that he
could tell from the man’s back that he was not bad-looking. His physique was good too.
It was not easy for him to get rid of Isaac Stringer, and now there was another random man.
“Catherine Jones, can’t you give me peace of mind? Will you die if you don’t provoke men all day long?
Or are you saying that I can’t satisfy you?”
He grabbed her shoulders angrily.
Catherine’s shoulders hurt from his grip. She looked at the man in front of her, and Logan’s words last
night came to mind. She should control her feelings. “Shaun Hill, I did agree to be with you, but there’s
no law that says I can’t have contact with the opposite sex.”
Her face was full of indifference, completely different from the shy and hot appearance in bed
yesterday. Shaun felt like a bucket of cold water was poured on him, chilling him.
“Catherine Jones, since you’re with me, keeping a distance from the opposite sex is the basic principle
of being a girlfriend.”
Shaun said with a cold face, “I asked you out yesterday, but you’d rather spend time with an unknown
man. What do you take me for?”
“If you don’t want to believe me, then there’s nothing I can do.”
Catherine turned and took out the milk from the refrigerator indifferently.
Shaun glared at her back. “If you don’t give me an explanation, I’ll investigate that man and find out just
who he is.”
Then, he turned around angrily and walked out.
“Stop,” Catherine called him, her voice rising in anger. “Are you done? You investigate the people
around me at the drop of a hat. You investigated Isaac before and now you’re investigating someone
else. Shaun Hill, if you won’t even give me a little respect, then we’ll break up.”
Shaun was shocked. His face was covered with hostility and he was so angry that he punched the
door, making a heavy muffled sound.
However, Catherine simply poured a cup of milk with a calm face, completely unaffected by his anger.
For a moment, Shaun was a little taken aback.
