Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]
“But… will I get into trouble with Chester?” Simon felt nervous.
Catherine was speechless. “You dare to hit him, yet you are afraid of getting into trouble? Don’t you know
to say that it was Thomas who instigated you?”
“Yes, yes, you’re smart.” Simon asked carefully, “So can I leave now?”
“Get lost. By the way, if you dare fool me, watch out as I might look for you.” Catherine hit the ground
with the steel bar.
“I wouldn’t dare.” Simon shuddered. Then, he took his men and fled in a hurry.
Only then did Catherine go to Shaun’s side. That man was sprawled in a puddle of mud. His white T-
shirt was soaked in mud water, and his handsome face was covered in wounds. At that moment, his
eyes were closed, and he looked lifeless.
If it were not for the familiar features on his face, Catherine would have doubted if he was Shaun.
The Shaun she knew was elegant and noble. He would even style his short, black hair tidily, and there
was never a wrinkle on his suit.
What made him become like this?
Was it because Hill Corporation had fallen?
Shaun was not the type of person who gave up and compromised so easily.
“Shaun, wake up.” Catherine lowered her head and pushed him.
Shaun, who was blurry from the pain, opened his eyes. He could not see the woman in front of him
clearly, but the faint fragrance wafting from the woman was very familiar. Even the woman’s voice was
similar to hers.
“Cathy… Why are you here?” Shaun smiled weakly a t Catherine. He thought he was dreaming because
she would only come to him in his dreams.
Catherine’s throat moved. She felt a little bad. In the end, she bent over and helped him up.
He staggered and pushed Catherine’s hand away while burping. “Don’t… Don’t touch me. I’m dirty. Don’t
get your clothes… dirty.”
“Shaun, let me send you back.” Catherine had to go forward and grab his hand.
Only then did she realize there were wounds on his hand too, and it was bleeding.
She suddenly felt a mix of emotions.
“I… I don’t need you to send me. I can walk by myself.” Shaun flung her hand away before he turned
around and stumbled. It was as if he was going to fall any time.
Catherine looked at him for a while, but she could not watch on anymore and forcefully yanked him over.
She put him in the backseat of her car.
As she drove, she glanced behind through the rearview mirror from time to time. That man was lying on
his back in the backseat. Once he got in the car, he fell asleep and lost consciousness.
After driving for more than ten minutes, Catherine spotted a pharmacy, where she got down from the car
and bought a bottle of disinfectant and medicine. Then, she drove him to a bungalow where she once
went in the past.
She used Shaun’s fingerprint to unlock the door. When they went in, she threw him on the sofa.
Initially, she wanted to turn around and leave. Yet, as she glanced at the medicine in her hands, she
kind-heartedly fetched a basin of water and helped to take off his dirty clothes.
When it came to his pants, she initially did not want to change them for him. However, after considering
that the inside was wet too, she simply took everything off.
