Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]
“Just admit it. ” Rodney scoffed. “Catherine Jones, I’m giving you two options now. You can either go to
jail or let my subordinates have their fun with you. Only then will I let you off the hook.”
Catherine chuckled. “For someone like you who isn’t even eligible to inherit the Snow family’s
properties, you’re nothing. I’m sure this bunch of people are not the masters from Snow Corporation. If
you guys have the guts, you can band together and attack me. Let me see how great you are.”
Rodney was so exasperated that his expression changed drastically. At this moment, Shaun had
rushed over.
He slammed the brakes to stop in front of their cars. He immediately got out.
He was still wearing the same shirt as when he had hurriedly left in the wee hours of the morning.
Nevertheless, his exquisitely handsome face looked extremely fierce, which was completely different
from his gentle appearance yesterday.
At the sight of Shaun, Rodney snorted. “Shaun, you came at the right time. She’s admitted that it was
her doing. This time, you have to give me an explanation. This cruel woman must be punished
accordingly.”
Catherine was at a loss for words. “When did I admit to kidnapping Sarah?”
“You admitted that the kidnapper works for you. If you hadn’t instructed him, would he have kidnapped
Sarah of his own accord?” Rodney criticized her.
Catherine furrowed her brows. Although Logan worked for her, he would not randomly kidnap someone
without her order—unless someone had framed him.
She had always kept Logan a secret. No one knew about him except for a few of her close friends.
Could it be that someone had found out about it after the reporter captured her meeting Logan in the
pub a few days ago?
Having said that, who could that person be?
Could it be the young man who headed to Neah Bay, the one who also secretly assisted Sarah?
Perhaps… it was Sarah’s new plan. Sarah’s purpose was to intensify the conflict between Shaun and
her. Then, she would destroy her right-hand man,
Logan.
The mastermind of this incident was ruthless,
indeed.
It had been a while since she returned to Australia and it was her first time feeling so frustrated.
She had underestimated Sarah.
At this point, it was still not known who was the one secretly assisting Sarah.
However, what mattered now was saving Logan. She could not leave him high and dry.
“Look, Shaun. She feels so guilty that she’s stopped speaking.” Rodney scoffed.
Shaun slowly walked toward Catherine. Last night, he had imagined himself being with her forever, yet
at this moment, he felt that he could not see through her.
“Why did you do such a thing?”
He stared at her icily with bloodshot eyes. “If you’re holding a grudge, you can take revenge on me. I
was the one who hurt you previously, not Sarah. You can do anything you want to me, but why did you
get someone to humiliate Sarah?”
For a woman, nothing was crueler than accusing her of something she did not do.
However, it was his beloved woman who did such a horrible thing.
Catherine looked into his eyes impassively and calmly. “Shaun, you just told me recently that you’d try
to trust me. Is this how you’re trusting me? Whenever it comes to Sarah’s affairs, you always suspect
me without a second thought.”
“I don’t want to suspect you either, but I’ve caught the person who works for you!” Shaun thundered, “
When you met him at the pub that day, you were instructing him to kidnap Sarah, right? If you say n o
and deny your connections with him, I’ll get someone to kill him at once.”
“No!” Catherine said helplessly, “Shaun, there must be a misunderstanding. I hope you’ll investigate
this matter thoroughly. It’s true that Logan works for me. He’s the bodyguard I hired from overseas.
When I returned to Australia, you guys were still my enemies, so I had to get someone to protect me. I
understand his character. He wouldn’t do such a thing.”
“Stop denying,” Rodney chimed in, “The truth is already right in front of your eyes. Logan just acted on
your instructions. Who else would’ve instructed him to do so if not you? In the whole of Australia, only
you and Freya hate Sarah.”
