Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]
Freya gaped at him.
She had never seen an impotent man acting so arrogantly.
Unlike other impotent men who would typically abase themselves, Shaun wished everyone in the world
knew about it.
“You can prove it too,” Shaun added softly while fixing his eyes on Catherine.
Catherine was speechless. What could she prove?
Prove that he was capable of harassing her in spite o f his impotence?
Those words made Freya’s ears turn red. As an onlooker, she could not help but have improper thoughts
upon hearing Shaun’s flirtatious remarks. “Well… You guys can take your time and carry on with your
conversation. I’m going to get into the car first.”
After taking a few steps forward, she reminded Catherine with concern, “Cathy, hurry up and get in. Don’t
keep me waiting for too long.”
She then ran into her car like the wind, leaving Catherine speechless and annoyed. If Catherine had
known that he was alive, she would not have come back.
Shaun looked at her so gently that it could drown her. “Cathy, I saw your eyes were red just now.
Were you heartbroken because you were under the impression that I was dead…”
“I think you’re delusional. Don’t think too highly of yourself. In fact, I almost cried tears of joy.”
Catherine lifted her head and snorted. “After learning that the man who tortured me for several years was
finally dead, the excitement in me isn’t something you could fathom.”
“I don’t believe it…”
Shaun smirked, but the corners of his mouth revealed a faint smile. “Cathy, I was already there when you
stepped into the hotel, but I just didn’t show myself. However, you looked like you were panicking rather
than crying for joy.”
Catherine was stunned.
This guy actually hid elsewhere and observed her in secret.
He must have done it on purpose.
He had seen her disconcerted look after she thought that he was dead. This made her so furious that
she could feel her blood boil.
Sure enough, she should have been cruel in the face of such a devil.
“Cathy, you still care about me.” Shaun slowly approached her and held her hand. His eyes were so
deep that one could drown in them.
Considering that anyone could appear in this public space, Catherine was so frightened that she
hurriedly broke free from his grip.
Shaun’s handsome face paled all of a sudden. When she yanked his hand away, he gasped, and his arm
started to tremble.
Catherine suddenly recalled Hannah mentioning that his arms were injured.
Her fingers twitched, and she said gravely, “Shaun, don’t you think that you went too far? All of us
thought you were dead, and the incident involved a lot of police and medical staff. While everyone else
was worrying, you just secretly watched the fun from the side.”
Shaun explained with a low voice, “I didn’t. I appeared less than five minutes after you arrived. After the
elevator went wrong, I was struggling in the shaft for ten minutes, and I lifted a woman from there. Look
at my arms…”
Only when he stretched out both his hands did Catherine realize that his previously good-looking nails
were injured and stained with blood.
She was shocked.
Noticing her reaction, Shaun rolled up his sleeves lightly. “And this part too. It got hit by the iron chain
inside.”
Catherine saw that his entire arm was bruised. She could not help but take a shallow breath.
She initially thought that he had only suffered from minor injuries. However, it was unsurprising that he
was so badly injured. Even though she had not been to the elevator shaft, the mere thought of it dreaded
her.
