Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]
“In the end, it’s all because Shaun is in a relationship with Miss Mead.”
“But Catherine has married Wesley, hasn’t she? ”
“You won’t understand. A lot of women have a roving eye. What’s more, she might be dissatisfied that
Shaun managed to play up to the Mead family.”
“She looks pretty, but I didn’t expect her to be so disgusting.”
When those disparaging comments reached Shaun’s ears, his bright eyes revealed a sense of grimness.
Just as he was about to lose his temper, he heard Catherine snort.
“Are you sure I pushed you?” Catherine fixed her sharp eyes on that servant. “I came here with you just
because you told me that Miss Lynch called me over. When we walked by the pool, you claimed that
your shoelaces were loose, so I stopped to wait for you. But you tried to push me and ended up falling
into the pool yourself.”
“You’re bullsh*tting.” The servant, who had come u p with a lie on the spot, panicked upon hearing
Catherine’s clear explanation. “I didn’t say that Miss Lynch was looking for you. You were the one who
asked me to bring you over here.”
Catherine bit her lip. “I can see that you’re rushing to make up a story. You probably haven’t thought it
through, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have forgotten that there are surveillance cameras around the
pool. We can just check the surveillance footage to find out whether I was the one who pushed you.”
The servant’s mind went blank. In a state of panic, she had no other choice but to look at Hannah for
help.
Hannah wished she could kick the servant away. At this point, she could not help but say, “I didn’t expect
such an issue to happen today, so the surveillance cameras aren’t turned on.”
“What a coincidence. It’s always at crucial moments that the surveillance cameras are off or some
important footage is missing.”
Catherine sighed faintly. “Well, there’s nothing I can do. It’s up to you, Miss Mead. If you want me to say
sorry, I’ll do it since this is your home and she’s your servant. Anyway, you won’t be at ease unless I
apologize, right?”
The guests were not dumb. From Catherine’s words, they understood that Hannah was deliberately
bullying and framing Catherine just because this was her house. She even intentionally said that the
surveillance cameras were off.
Hannah’s face flushed with anger. She knew that if she taught Catherine a lesson today, people would
call her a bully.
She clenched her teeth. A moment later, she smiled and said, “I just thought that everyone would feel
uncomfortable if the surveillance cameras were on. Apparently, turning them off was unnecessary.
Let’s forget it. It wasn’t anyone’s intention to make this happen.”
“Yeah, forget it.” Someone smoothed things over. “ It must just be a misunderstanding.”
“I think Miss Jones got a fright. Just give her a slice of cake to calm her down later, Miss Mead.”
“Yup. Let’s get ready and cut the cake now,” Hannah said with a grin.
“Wait a minute.”
All of a sudden, Shaun said nonchalantly, “I heard you guys discussing something just now. I’d like to
clarify that I’m not in a relationship with Miss Mead. As everyone knows, I’m already interested in
someone else.”
As soon as he was done speaking, his eyes were fixed on Catherine. The glint in the depths of his eyes
said it all.
Hannah’s pretty face turned ghastly. Everyone had seen her holding Shaun’s hand of her own accord
previously. She did not expect such a slap in the face from Shaun in public.
It was all Catherine’s doing!
Hannah’s eyes flashed with deep hatred.
Catherine was overwhelmed with unease while a blush crept up her face.
She wished she could kick Shaun into the pool as he kept getting her more enemies.
What did she owe him?
The awkward atmosphere lasted until the cake- cutting session.
Originally, Hannah planned to ask Shaun to cut the cake with her. At this point, she had to change her
mind.
